    Good guess, but no :)
    Cuyahoga and the name of a State are in the song lyrics, but the song title is different

    Cuyahoga is the city and it’s in this state, both of which are lyrics in the song and where the female lead singer originates
    It was the “B”side of their biggest hit and the theme song for The Rush Limbaugh Show

    That is more than I knew about that song. I've listened to Rush before (it's been a few years now), but didn't ever know the background on the song.

    That works too, but not the one I was thinking of. It's older than that.

    3-way Mash-up “Pronounced” (see spoiler for definition). I'll provide the 3 artists (in order) and you have to provide the 3 “pronounced” (not written) 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. Bryan Adams
    2. Prince
    3. Nena
