    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. Whitney Houston
    2. The Everly Brothers
    3. Aerosmith
    4. Donna Summer
    5. Queen

    1. Counting Crows -- Round Here
    2. Pixies -- Here Comes Your Man
    3. Johnny Cash -- Man In Black
    4. Soundarden -- Black Hole Sun
    5. U2 -- Sun City

    Completely done with research. None of them are on my playlist, although of course I know some of Johnny Cash's songs and a smattering of the others. I don't think I've ever heard of Pixies. I guess I'm somewhat sheltered.
