    I don't think he had a song called "A quarter to eight". So, I'll go with "SUNDOWN"

    The Edgar Winter Group + Mary Shelley =

    Correct you big joker. I did laugh out loud. Someone else should jump in here.

    Frankenstein? (My guess is based purely on the Mary Shelley clue)

    Your guess is correct! Edgar Winter has a great instrumental called Frankenstein. Maybe you've heard it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IIN05Gdgsso

    You're up!

    5-way mashup (see spoiler for definition). I'll provide the 5 artists (in order) and you have to provide the 5 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. Rod Stewart
    2. Elvis Presley
    3. Eagles
    4. The Mamas & the Papas
    5. Selena

    I had to do some research and didn't get a perfect match. Maybe there are other songs that work.

    1. Rod Stewart - It's A Heartache
    2. Elvis Presley - Heartbreak Hotel
    3. Eagles - Hotel California
    4. The Mamas & the Papas - California Dreamin'
    5. Selena - Dreaming Of You

    It’s correct, sorry! (I made the mistake of heartache/heartbreak)…

    I figured there might be more than one. I was thinking of "Can't Let Go", but that's fine.

    The Boys of Summer.

    Speaking of baseball, I read there is an $80M development plan for The Field of Dreams. Not sure how I feel about that. It's good there will be an influx of money and jobs, but it won't be the same anymore. Some of the charm will be lost.

    Listening to iHeart70s Radio and heard this one.

    Steve Miller + 787 = [song]

    I knew this and didn't have to look it up, but it did take a couple looks over half a day before I remembered.

    Heart Like A Wheel

    Speaking of Steve Miller.....his former roommate and bandmate is Boz Scaggs.

    NBA knowledge required.

    Boz Scaggs + Celtic Guard Mr. White =

    Wow! Double correct answers!
    Not the one I was looking for, but you are right! I was actually looking for "Living In The USA".
    I forgot about "Heart Like A Wheel". Nice one!!

    Not the one I was looking for. The player's name was Jo Jo White. Does that help?

    "Jo Jo"

    I cheated. Had to look it up. I'm not familiar with that one.


    Steve Miller + Clint Eastwood and Tommy Lee Jones =

    Not sure if you're looking for the song title related to those two or the much more famous song containing the lyric. But since already did The Joker.....

    Space Cowboy?
  • snookeroo
    snookeroo Posts: 2,749 Member
    Space Cowboy is correct.

    Besides being mentioned in "The Joker", it is its own song (That's what he was referencing in the Joker...along with other song references)

    My first thought was Wilson Philips, but I couldn't think of anything.
    Then I thought Heart, (who I listen to more than Wilson Philips), but I still can't come up with a song.

    Heart is correct. This is probably the first song I heard from them.

    This is Plymouth as in a car, but it could be a fish, or a tech company that makes firewalls and other things.
