    Good guess, but not that one. New clue.

    Heart + zero = [song]

    This single was released in 1986.

    Nothin' At All

    That one escapes my memory.

    Ricky Nelson + Bob Seger + Lynyrd Skynyrd = [same title/different song]

    I scoured the Wikipedia discographies and was able to find Travelin' Man.

    I also found another song I had kind of forgotten about.

    Bob Seger + Barry Manilow = [same title/different song]

    Even Now

    I heard this song, this morning, on AT40. I didn't know this song shared a title.

    John Cougar + Millie Jackson = [same title/different song]

    I'll think about that one. In the meantime, here is a story I read in Tidbits.

    Paul Simon was sitting in a Chinese restaurant looking at the menu when one item caught his eye. The dish was called "month and child reunion" and consisted of chicken served with eggs. The phrase stuck in his head and turned into a song:

    No, I would not give you false home

    On this strange and mournful day

    But the month and child reunion

    Is only a motion away

    Is the song Hurts So Good?

    I always thought that Paul Simon's song, Mother and Child Reunion, was about a hope that the Beatles would get back together. That was just my interpretation. Never read that anywhere.

    Hurt So Good is correct

    Careful. This one is tricky.

    Hint: This is an April Wine album title.

    April Wine + Mick Jagger's burden = [album title]

    I saw April Wine and immediately thought of Just Between You and Me.

    Then I noticed you were looking for an album title. I had to look that up, but it makes sense.

    The Nature of the Beast

    That’s it.
    Just Between You and Me was on that album, as well as Sign of the Gypsy Queen.
