    Having some trouble with this one. Maybe this would work.

    1. Bob Marley -- Is This Love
    2. Neil Diamond -- Love On The Rocks
    3. Roy Orbison -- Rock House

    1. Bob Marley - Redemption Song
    2. Neil Diamond - Song Sung Blue
    3. Roy Orbison - Blue Bayou

    Jesus' birthplace / Affection + Pain = [band/song]

    You know what? Never mind. This one has been on here a couple times.

    Given the band, what album and song have the same title. I'm sure we can come up with several bands like this.

    The Cars / [album] = [song]

    Candy-O

    Not the one I was looking for. That narrows it down. :smile:

    I checked Wikipedia and they say Candy-O was never released as a single.

    Looking for another song from an album of the same name by The Cars.

    Current problem...

    Snookeroo thought maybe Candy-O, but I am thinking of a different song/album.

    Clue: James Bond's drink would not be stirred, it would be...sort of...this.

    Oh! Shake It Up.

    I only bought the first two Cars albums, back in the day. The second being Candy-O. That's why I immediately thought of that one. Only bought greatest hits collections after that one.

    I can't think of anything. I'll throw this one out there:

    Jim Morrison and Bill Gates
  • deckerp
    deckerp Posts: 4,635 Member
    Gosh, I'm not sure what the heck to make of this.

    Jim Morrison, I'm guessing, means The Doors. I can't find a song that has a link, in my mind, to Bill Gates. Something like Microsoft or Windows is what I would think of for Gates.

    Still thinking.

    Jim Morrison is the only musical reference. Sorry! I couldn't think of anything, so I put this out there. I thought it was kind of cute.

    The answer is Doors and Windows.

    I'll put myself in the penalty box. You are up.

    Ah, I get it. Dan Fogelberg had an album named "Windows and Walls". :smile:

    I thought of something yesterday, but can't think of exactly the same one now. Nazareth was one of them though.

    3-way mashup (see spoiler for definition). I'll provide the 3 artists (in order) and you have to provide the 3 connecting songs.
    Definition:
    Mashup: MA` sh * up: (n)
    The would-be song if two artists mashed their titles together
    Example:
    Artist: George Gerswin and Elvis =
    Song: I can't give you anything but LOVE Me tender

    1. Nazareth
    2. John Mellencamp
    3. The Knack

    I'll try a mashup.

    1. Eric Clapton
    2. Maria Muldaur
    3. Wonderwall

    Has to be Midnight At The Oasis. Not sure of the others off the top of my head.

    Oh wait, After Midnight for Clapton.

    After a bit of research......Wonderwall has a song named Oasis.

    2. Midnight at the Oasis

    I'm sorry.

    Carol King + Duke Ellington = [song]

    snookeroo Posts: 2,263 Member
    Ha! I mix up Carly Simon and Carol King all of the time, too.
    Let's not have any questions with Meryl Streep and Glenn Close.

    I'm stuck on this clue.

    Can I guess?

    Carol King + Duke Ellington = Jazzman

    Um.... I haven't read through all the posts to see if this one was ever done, but how about...

    Elton John + Elon Musk = (song title)
  • deckerp
    deckerp Posts: 4,635 Member
    Jazzman is correct.

    Rolling Stones / Baking ingredient = [song]

    This is kind of obscure, but interesting. Album and song with the same name, although a slightly different spelling.

    Men At Work + England Dan & John Ford Coley = [song/album]
