MUSIC TRIVIA #3 (1985-1999) Cryptic Clues Name both tune and artist(s) (1) 1985: Name the Czech composer, keyboardist who nailed a #1 hit with the Theme to a TV drama series. (2) 1986: Ronnie Spector made audio and visual (in the video) cameos in what hit tune. She may have been motivated by the artist. Name the tune and singer. (3) 1987: A cover version by what new group hit #1 for 2 weeks. By its title, one suspects they relied on the original artist/composer Bill Withers who scored with it 15 years earlier. (4) 1988: This long-time group insists on courting type 2 diabetes with what hit? It figures, cuz theyre apparently hard of hearing and unwilling to change their spots. (5) 1989: Ironically, this hit tunes title asserted honesty, yet in reality, the artists (duo) were exposed as being short on same. (6) 1990: Though completely different tunes, this #1 hit has the same title as another #1 hit (by the Carpenters), and sung by a Reggae artist who, despite his name, may not even be Catholic (7) 1991: Perhaps in a dream, this group discovers a crisis of faith, or lack thereof (8) 1992: This band, named for a staple in Mexican cuisine, perhaps found inspiration where the trolls reside? (9) 1993: This hit, perhaps describing Dianas boys, got a lot of rotation, medically speaking? (10) 1994: This main-course monickered rocker (and sometimes actor) is nearly always compliant as far as proving his romantic mettle. (11) 1995: A thorny situation...with danger of being pricked on the lips....Better this singer fetch a fish tossed his way. (12) 1996: Oddly, nearly none of the items mentioned by this Canadian-American warbler/writer is an example of the songs one-word title. Did she really think? (13) 1997: The title inquires (musically) on the whereabouts of Roy, Hopalong, Lash Larue, and perhaps one of the Youngers (one of whoms first name = last name of the singer). (14) 1998: Liv Tyler was in a movie in which her dad sang this hit for his band. Afterwards, he got to the theater early to view the flick in its entirety... because.. as he said it....... (15) 1999: J. Frank Wilson and the Cavaliers had a big hit with a cover version in 1964. 35 years later, the song smacked one final time when this Seattle-based band took it to #1.
