    (assuming anyone can jump in..apologies if I jumped out of turn)

    Here's an easy one (I think)

    Singers * ("Lawyers in Love"+"You are my lady"+"Thriller") + Musical Hosts * (American Idol + MTV VeeJay) = ?

    Your so close...!!

    you've got the biggest piece of the puzzle..Jackson.

    I'll throw in this:
    Singers: 3 jacksons
    +
    American Idol Host = Randy Jackson
    MTV Veejay = ? (the oldest one of the original 5

    Nina Blackwood sounds the oldest but it could just be the cigarettes. Wikipedia says the oldest of the originals was Mark Goodman.

    Would that mean answer is something like 3 Jacksons + Randy + Goodman?

    @deckerp , hmm shows what wiki knows.. they all started at the same time and another was older (as in years of age) than the rest.

    Had to do more research. I found J.J. Jackson is "older than the rest" at 62.

    I guess that makes all the pieces Jackson.

    Pardon my inconvenient absence. Work has been brutally busy, and after that I was at the ball game watching the Jays beat Cleveland in extra innings. :)

    Go ahead Pat.

    My first inclination was to go with The Cars, but you gave a great clue with Traffic :D
    Another easy one:
