I am gonna try a different quiz !

I will give you a list of bands/artists in no particular order.

Your task is to put them in pairs, based on what they have in common.  What the pairs of these have in common is that they have sung songs which have the same title (but are not the same song)


Here is an example:

Equals

Player


Both groups had a song called "Baby Come Back"


So as you answer I would expect you to say both artists and the song title e.g. : "Equals, Player - Baby Come Back"


Off you go - limit 3 !

Hi Maddog

Correct  :D

I was going to say "Status Quo" and "The Beatles" for "Rain"... but also "Whitesnake" and "The Beatles" for "You and Me" (though Queen did "You and I"... supplementary aside: which of those three You and I/Me is grammatically incorrect?)

Let's see...the only pair left is Eurythmics and Flo and Eddie. I know that the Eurythmics had a song called "Would I Lie To You", and Charles and Eddie also had a song of that name. But did Flo and Eddie have one too?
