Hi Karen! :)
Yet another fine quiz you got here...I think I've found three:
#6: I've Been Thinking About You - Londonbeat
#16: (Don't You) Forget About Me - Simple Minds
#20: In The Navy - Village People
A connection...? :-\\ Well, so far they're all bands - but I doubt that's what you had in mind.

Hi, kairi! :)
I'll give you 2.5 out of 3 for these, as Luther Vandross was not the artist I was looking for on #8...

A rather wild guess at the connection...
Have all these songs been butchered by various people on 'American Idol'?

Didn't some country star like Randy Travis record "Always And Forever"?
BTW, #11 is the Fine Young Cannibals's "She Drives Me Crazy". Love that song!
Could the theme be that each of these all were the artist/band's only #1 hit?
That's my hunch!

Hi Karen
The artist for #8 is Heatwave, I believe.
My guess for the hidden theme...it's a long shot but is it something to do with relationships within the bands?
I know there were 2 brothers in Heatwave, plus various other bands in the list so far have siblings or husband/wife combinations in the band....stretching the point a little with Culture Club at #13 but there was a relationship between Boy George and drummer Jon Moss wasn't there?

Subject: Re: A New 'Hidden Theme' Quiz...(3 LEFT!)
Written By: nally on 09/28/07 at 1:20 pm
Let's see if I can figure out any of the ones that are left.
#10... I think it's "All 4 love" by Color Me Badd?
Also, I can't figure out the "hidden theme" :-[
And by the way, I know #6 has been answered, but for the record, I heard it on the radio yesterday. :D

Well, it's one of many 90s songs I like to listen to; this particular one was from the early part of the decade...I believe it was popular when I was in the 5th grade.

After a look so close it nearly made my eyeballs fall out of my ears, I've come to the conclusion that they are all interracial bands...
