my three songs

a new feature here on finkipedia, based on a contest run on many radio stations and named after the one that was a regular feature on the WHFS afternoon show years ago.

very simple- i give you 3 songs, you give me the common link between them. a little difficult to do because of the lack of sound, but i think i can come up with some that are common enough that you'd know them and can figure out the link.

sometimes the link may be related to the lyrics, or sometimes it may be related to more of a generality about the songs themselves.

here then is your first installment- a relatively easy one, i think:
  1. bangles, "manic monday"
  2. prince, "little red corvette"
  3. sheena easton, "sugar walls"
good luck.

As Weasel would say, "All written by the wee one from the Twin Cities, Prince Rogers Nelson."

I get bonus points for Weasel talk and knowing Prince's full name, right?

Prince had sex with someone in each of those bands.

By the way, have you forgotten your roots? Bob Buckman's been doing this since we were in High School.

i never said i was original with this idea- in fact, i believe i wrote that it has been done on many radio stations. i just happened to use the name that it went by when the segment appeared on whfs in DC.
