    Sky High

    Just heard another of their hits over the weekend, maybe only other one I remember. I could even sing along with most of it after not hearing it for decades.

    Jigsaw + 1 / (Hate Ice) = [song]

    Decode the song title pretty literally.

    Jigsaw + (Hate Ice) * -1 = [song]

    That's the one. I assume you don't remember it.

    No I don't remember it. I gave it a listen. Doesn't sound familiar.

    Elton John + Wahine = [song]

    I had to look it up . I never heard of Jesse the Body.

    Ventura Highway

    But I don’t get the +20

    Highway 20

    U.S. Route 20 or U.S. Highway 20 (US 20) is an east–west United States Numbered Highway that stretches from the Pacific Northwest east to New England. The "0" in its route number indicates that US 20 is a major coast-to-coast route. Spanning 3,365 miles (5,415 km), it is the longest road in the United States,[1] and, in the east, the route is roughly parallel to Interstate 90 (I-90), which is the longest Interstate Highway in the U.S. There is a discontinuity in the official designation of US 20 through Yellowstone National Park, with unnumbered roads used to traverse the park.

    Correct song, by the way.

    Lido Shuffle?

    Nope. But that's on the right track.

    Romeo And Juliet

    I don't know that one. Looks like it charted high in the UK, but nowhere else.

    I just learned that the lead singer for the band The Buoys passed away in December.

    After The Buoys, he formed other bands, including The Jerry-Kelly Band and Dakota.

    Saw them numerous times in local clubs, back in the '80s. Good music. Among my favorite local artists, for sure!

    The Buoys + Bruce Schmit = [song]

    I remember that song. Timothy

    Controversial one.
