    You were correct. I have this one, but will allow others a shot at it.

    Good song.

    More clues?

    The singer's first name is the same as an actress, Wilde.

    Fig refers to a cookie.

    Kennedy a U.S. president.

    Doctor exam a yearly appointment we make.

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

    1. The Cars
    2. Milli Vanilli
    3. Cyndi Lauper

    I had to investigate songs by Milli Vanilli, but the others just fell into place.

    1. The Cars -- My Best Friend's Girl
    2. Milli Vanilli -- Girl You Know It's True
    3. Cyndi Lauper -- True Colors

    Looking for a crossover song with movie clues for the song writer and singers. It's a duet.

    writer + singer + singer = [song]

    Saturday Night Fever + The Gambler + 9 to 5 = [song]

    I have no clue. The artists who come to mind, are: Barry Gibb, Kenny Rogers, Dolly Parton and John Travolta.
    Drawing a blank on the song.

    Written by Barry Gibb and/or the Bee Gees. Performed by Kenny Rogers and Dolly Parton.

    I thought this would be easy. Maybe it isn't common knowledge he wrote it, but I don't know of many songs Kenny and Dolly performed together.

    Islands In The Stream

    Kenny and Dolly sang several duets. Islands In The Stream was a good one.

    Yes, I knew Barry Gibb wrote that, plus Kenny Rogers' You and I. And Stayin' Alive. And I know Dolly's 9 to 5. And John Travolta's Let Her In.
    I guess I didn't know the answer you were looking for. I wasn't making the connection. I'll go to the back of the class. Anybody got another one?

    The group has to be The Zombies. I am not familiar with most of their songs, but I did some research and found a likely song.

    Delaying for someone to "natively" solve this one.
