    That's not easy, Jai. Not at all. Need another clue. Are all of the artist male, female or
    does it vary? Are all of the songs Soul/R&B?...

    Huh?....

    What about David Ruffin singing "I'm In love" in 1960?

    I'm sure that there were singers who had long careers, who sang two different songs that had the same title. I've seen instances of that [[but can't remember the specifics). I also wonder if there were songwriters, who had long careers, who ended up writing 2 different songs having the same title? I know these situations occur. I have, myself, experienced writing 2 completely unrelated stories [[separated by over 20 years, using the same title [[having forgotten that I had used that title previously). And, luckily, discovering I had used it before, changing the title of the second, before it was published, to avoid confusion in record keeping, credits, payment and from the public. I am sure such situations are somewhat unusual, but not drastically rare.

    I do know that Motown had at least 2 instances of Jobete Music Co. publishing and Motown Record Corp. recording and releasing songs with the same title, sung by different artists.

    Nice try, des, but considering the shock that I'm still in that Jai has never heard Aretha
    Franklin's I'm In Love, I don't even think The Bay City Rollers would ever even enter his
    radar...
    It's Sunday morning, arr&bee!
    What's the answer?........

    You could be rolling in the wrong direction, arr&bee - ??

    If you thought Answer This 77 was 'easy', yet no-one got it, maybe that's because we don't have the time it needs, just to think about it for too long. Too much else on our minds.

    Maybe try some easy stage, instant response ones?

    If you don't get us hooked from the beginning, you sure won't have us hooked in the end LOL

    Just my opinion, anyway....

    Roll on 'Answer This 78'......

    Guide dogs would have been more effective.

    Good idea. We should give arr&bee a few answers, and he then comes up with a question.

    Arr&bee, if you're reading this, the answer is 'Forty-two'.

    So, just let us know the question, and then we'll let YOU know if you're right
