Subject: Pair Some More Artists By Same Song Title (FINALLY DONE!)

Written By: nally on 07/27/04 at 3:59 pm

All right...you know what to do. Find a pair of artists who have a song of the same title (though different song), and tell me the song title that they have in common. Example: Linda Ronstadt/James Ingram and Our Lady Peace both performed a song called "Somewhere Out There."

Limit: 4 pairs for now. OFF.

Good luck! Hope this one isn't too hard.

Paul 1. Sixpence None The Richer Kiss Me also Steven Tin-Tin Duffy

HINTS:

* One of the "pairs" is mentioned in consecutive responses on page 340 of the "Link The Songs" thread. Both artists are solo male performers.

* In one of the other pairs, one of the songs occurs on page 236 of the "Chain The Songs" thread, and its "partner" appears on page 339 of the "Chain The Songs" thread. The common title is one word, which begins with an S and ends with an R. One of the artists is a 70s-80s band from Illinois; the other artist is a solo performer; her name -- which ends with a vowel -- is toward the bottom of the list. (Note: Elvis also had a song with this name, but he's not on the list.)

* A country singer on the list had a hit in 1999 that shares its one-word title with that of a 2004 song by a rocker who has been on the music scene a while. Both singers are female, and are even-numbered on the list.

* A 2001 hit by a British rock band shares its title with that of a 2003 song by a performer whose name is a color. I hope you don't have too much "Trouble" finding these.

* A rapper known by his first name (although I put his full name on the list) had a song that shares its three-word title with a 60s song. Also see page 383 of "Link The Songs". I don't mean to put so many links to other messages, but some of the pairs happen to occur there.

* There is one other pair of songs whose common title begins with "Don't."

* One of the common song titles begins and ends with a number.

I know...but once people start solving them and there's less than ten left, it gets easier. But those are correct! :)

Right on, ProgShred! Actually, the second one is "Don't Stop Believin'", but I'll give you credit since it's close enough. :)

I Get Around (Beach Boys & 2Pac) Never would've gotten 2Pac without the hint.

Surrender (Cheap Trick and uh,..... Laura Pausini?)

2 Become 1 (Spice Girls and uh,..... Seal?)

Those are correct. I'm giving you half credit for "2 Become 1". One of the artists is the Spice Girls, but the other artist is a solo woman; her song of that name came out last year.
