    Pool + Dance / (2 + 15 + 26) + (19 + 3 + 1 + 7 + 7 + 19) = Song / Artist.

    Pool + Dance, like synchronized swimming maybe? The song could be Synchronicity.

    I don't get The Police out of the math though.
  • kcdambuster
    kcdambuster Posts: 217 Member
    Not Synchronicity.

    The math is really a very basic code. (I think).

    I thought maybe it was ASCII, but that doesn't seem to be the case.

    Ah ha! Simpler than that. Boz Scaggs.

    Lido Shuffle -- Boz Scaggs.

    His backup band was basically Toto. I didn't know that back in the day, but if you listen now it sure sounds like it.

    Correct. Maybe you were looking at too deep a code (ASCII) till the eureka moment. :)

    That should be Boz Scaggs, with a 'z', of course.

    This song wasn't from his Silk Degrees album, but from a soundtrack to a movie starring John Travolta and Debra Winger.

    Correct. It was a hit, but maybe not his biggest hit. Good stuff though.

    Look what you've done to me.

    As opposed to "Look what you've done" - Muddy Waters / Rolling Stones.

    I can't claim it though! :|

    Have you got one @peppermintpudgy?
