    Just a first guess, because that's the first song I think of for Bonnie Tyler.

    1. Bonnie Tyler -- Total Eclipse of the Heart
    2. Skillet (not on my playlist, no guesses)
    3. Randy Travis

    I suspect (hope?) this is going to take a collaborative effort:

    1. Bonnie Tyler -- I'm Holding out for a Hero?
    2. Skillet
    3. Randy Travis

    Thanks @XXL2Med (and, hopefully, with @DifferentView 's permision)...

    3-way Mash-up (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 or more artists mashed their titles together
    Example:
    Artist: George Gerswin + Elvis =
    Song: I can't give you anything but LOVE Me tender

    1. David Bowie
    2. Billy Idol
    3. Beatles

    The first song for Lennon that comes to mind is Imagine. That doesn't mean it's correct or help me with Black Sabbath. I have quite a few ELO songs in my collection, so that probably isn't the place to start.
