    Slang for the men's room + a hotel chain (different spelling) / moving like a turtle + rotating = artist / song

    I just happen to be listening to this right now. :smile: Bonus hint. The song mentions the drummer of a very well known band.

    Total guess here:
    John Hiatt/ Slow Turn? :|

    Close enough. It's 'Slow Turning'.

    I just heard this on XM.

    Life of _____ + _____ Family + you dog might do this when you whistle = [artist/song]

    The spelling doesn't quite match up but someone will get this. There are a couple clues I can add to narrow down the blanks.

    The first segment refers to a Monty Python movie.
    The second segment refers to a black and white comedy that fits with Halloween.
    The song is the last segment.

    Plus, he's from Canada, so Billy should jump all over this one.

    This might help:
    The frozen dairy treat includes soda pop.

    I found what could be the group, Temptations. Maybe that'll help someone or mislead them if I have it backward.

    I was thinking 'Ice Cream Man' by Van Halen. The year 72 would fit, but they're from Pasadena.

    Song title/ group

    Sorry, Pat, not the Temptations nor Van Halen, Billy.

    Song hint: soda pop is an ingredient in the frozen dairy treat.

    Group hint (this should seal the deal :D ):
    Walter & Donald

    Right group @sunn_lighter!
    And Pretzel Logic is a great song but not what I'm thinking of...

    I took the extra clues for me. There is some Steely Dan in my collection, but no Black Cow.

    One of The Traveling Wilburys + a parachutist does this for part of the jump = [artist/song]

    Assuming I am correct, I'm going to change up the genre a bit, but hopefully make it easy (it's that pesky ear worm thing again :D ):

    Common table top seasonings (different spelling) / Octogon sign + ____ the envelope

    I apologize, I'm adding words to the song title.
    Forget the Octogon, it's just:
    ____ the envelope + It
