Oldies Brain Busters!

[ Oldies Brain Busters! ]

This week's brain buster was called Title Links!

Some of you knew this as "before and after."
I gave the names of various artists. The last word of a Top 40 song by each artist was also the first word of a Top 40 song by the next artist.

As an example....

If the artist names I list are:
1. Jackson Five
2. Ringo Starr
3. Fantastic Johnny C

The only songs that connect "before and after" for all three artists are:
1. I Want You Back
2. Back Off Boogaloo
3. Boogaloo Down Broadway

I gave a list of artists for players to connect in the same way, ignoring "a" and "the" preceding song titles. Here's the artists and song titles that linked up:

1. The Association: Everything That Touches You
2. The Beegees: You Should Be Dancing
3. Abba: Dancing Queen
4. Jody Miller: Queen Of The House
5. Four Lads: House With Love In It
6. Albert Hammond: It Never Rains In Southern California
7. Lesley Gore: California Nights
8. Moody Blues: Nights In White Satin
9. Love Unlimited Orchestra: Satin Soul
10. The Box Tops: Soul Deep
11. Nino Tempo and April Stevens: Deep Purple
12. Prince: Purple Rain
13. The Cowsills: Rain, The Park and Other Things
14. New Colony Six: Things I'd Like To Say
15. James Brown: Say It Loud (I'm Black and I'm Proud)
