    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. Warren Zevon
    2. Neil Diamond
    3. The Doors
    4. James Taylor
    5. B.J. Thomas

    1. Warren Zevon -- Searching For A Heart
    2. Neil Diamond -- Heart Light
    3. The Doors -- Light My Fire
    4. James Taylor -- Fire And Rain
    5. B.J. Thomas -- Rain Drops Keep Fallin' On My Head

    I was able to work back from 5. Somehow they made sense. The Doors needed some research, but I should have known that one. Warren Zevon is a mystery to me other than Werewolves Of London.

    Although for #1, I had “Keep Me In Your Heart” in mind, yours works too! You’re up, @deckerp !

    Three different songs with this emotional title, by Frankie Goes to Hollywood, Huey Lewis and Jennifer Rush, were in the charts in the same year, 1985.
