Is Glen Campbell the Beach Boys link?

Or is a 60s surf instrumental the BB link?


The only "broken" songs I know end in "english" "arrow" and "wings", and those don't start any chart titles.

The instrumental group- is the group name based on its leader, or it a name like "Joe Jones and the Surf Punks"?

I never miss terrorists. ;D

No, MC, neither a '60s surf instrumewntal nor Glen Campbell is the Beach Boys Link

There is another song that begins with Broken, other than the ones you mention.

It's more like Joe Smith and his Orchestra. only sometimes you would only hear the Joe Smith part.

I wouldn't miss terrorists either.

We seem to be stuck at being about halfway done.

I wanted to bump this up. Let's get some more of you involved.

Here's where we stand right now:

Song 1. Stairway To Heaven Neil Sedaka
Song 2. Heaven Is a Place On Earth Belinda Carlisle
Song 3: Earth Angel The Penguins
Song 4 Angel of the Morning - Merilee Rush (If you had been stumped, a later clue would have said that one vocalists last name was the name of a Canadian Band)
Song 5. Morning Has BrokenYusaf Islam
Song 6: BrokenUnknown
Song 7 Unknown
Song 8. Unknown
Song 9: Unknown
Song 10. First word Unknown: Middle Words: Unknown: Last word is: Today

Clues that remain:
Two of the solo artists in these songs have last names that are almost identical. And I will add We have not yet named either of these songs/artists

There is a Beach Boys connection to one of the remaining artists. It's not Glen Campbell nor Wilson Phillips.

Of the remaining 5 songs:
One is done by male soloists (he is not a terrorist to the best of my knowledge)
One is done by female soloists
One is done by a female group
One is done by man/woman duet
and
One by an instrumental group named after its leader.
(these clues in no particular order)

BTW, Pete has been working top to bottom. That is not necessaily a requirement. You can go bottom to top as well, or as MC tried to do, use a clue to identify an artist and see where a song by them might fit in.

I will tell people when they are on the right track (just as I used to do in Name That Theme)

HMMM,

How about "Broken Hearted Melody" by Sarah Vaughn followed by "Melody Of Love" by The Billy Vaughn Orchestra?

HMMM,

How about "Broken Hearted Melody" by Sarah Vaughn followed by "Melody Of Love" by The Billy Vaughn Orchestra?

Sarah spelled it "Vaughan", Pete. Remember I said "nearly" identical last names. You are of course correct! Well done.

Let me get back up to date:

Song 1. Stairway To Heaven Neil Sedaka
Song 2. Heaven Is a Place On Earth Belinda Carlisle
Song 3: Earth Angel The Penguins
Song 4 Angel of the Morning - Merilee Rush (If you had been stumped, a later clue would have said that one vocalists last name was the name of a Canadian Band)
Song 5. Morning Has BrokenYusaf Islam
Song 6: BrokenHearted Melody Sarah Vaughan
Song 7 Melody of Love Billy Vaughn and his Orchestra.

Song 8. Love Unknown
Song 9: Unknown
Song 10. First word Unknown: Middle Words: Unknown: Last word is: Today

Clues that remain:

There is a Beach Boys connection to one of the remaining artists. It's not Glen Campbell nor Wilson Phillips.

Of the remaining 3 songs:
One is done by a male soloist (he is not a terrorist to the best of my knowledge)
One is done by a female group
One is done by man/woman duet
(these clues in no particular order)

[Dawn]

How about Love Will Keep Us Together - Captain & Tennille for the next one?

[m c dornan]

or "Love is Strange" by Mickey & Sylvia?

[H2IZCOOL]

Well. Two very good answers for the connection to "Love"

Dawn says "Love will, keep Us Together" by Captain and Tenille
and MC came up with "Love Is Strange" by Mickey and Sylvia

Dawn is correct. This also answers the Beach Boys connection. Daryl "The Captain" Dragon used to play keyboards for The Beach Boys.

So we are almost done

Song 1. Stairway To Heaven Neil Sedaka
Song 2. Heaven Is a Place On Earth Belinda Carlisle
Song 3: Earth Angel The Penguins
Song 4 Angel of the Morning - Merilee Rush (If you had been stumped, a later clue would have said that one vocalists last name was the name of a Canadian Band)
Song 5. Morning Has BrokenYusaf Islam
Song 6: BrokenHearted Melody Sarah Vaughan
Song 7 Melody of Love Billy Vaughn and his Orchestra.

Song 8. Love Will Keep Us Together - The Captain and Tenille
Song 9: Together Unknown
Song 10. First word Unknown: Middle Words: Unknown: Last word is: Today


Of the remaining 2 songs:
One is done by a male soloist (he is not a terrorist to the best of my knowledge)
One is done by a female group


Additional clues:
One of the remaining songs, while it is in the "top 40" rules is far from the artists biggest hit.

One of the remaining songs is the newest of all the 10 songs

[Pete70s]

Together Forever-Rick Astley
Forever Came Today-Diana Ros & The Supremes

You got it Pete !!

Well done:

Song 1. Stairway To Heaven Neil Sedaka
Song 2. Heaven Is a Place On Earth Belinda Carlisle
Song 3: Earth Angel The Penguins
Song 4 Angel of the Morning - Merilee Rush (If you had been stumped, a later clue would have said that one vocalists last name was the name of a Canadian Band)
Song 5. Morning Has BrokenYusaf Islam
Song 6: BrokenHearted Melody Sarah Vaughan
Song 7 Melody of Love Billy Vaughn and his Orchestra.

Song 8. Love Will Keep Us Together - The Captain and Tenille
Song 9: Together Forever Rick Astley
Song 10. Forever Came Today - Diana Ross and the Supremes

So Pete gets nine songs; Dawn gets one, and MC played hard as well.

Where were the rest of you jokers?? ;D ;D

BTW, my earlier screwup involved when I was setting up the game and I saw "Love Will Keep Us Together" my mind for some weird reason did a short circuit to "Someday We'll Be Togther" and thus I put in an erroneous clue about two songs by the same artist. Anyway, it was caught in time and corrected.

I may try to set up a new game late tonight and start it tomorrow

Thanks for playing!!
