You mean the Goofy Gophers, Mac and Tosh?  I always got them confused with Chip 'n' Dale.  "Indubitably!"


Still don't know the tune.

While we wait for an answer on yesterday's submission, here comes one for today that should also be on the easy side.  Try to guess without using one of those lyric searchers.  And I'm throwing in two extra bonus questions for this round.



1) Who is singing and name that tune.
2) Why would this artist probably never make it in today's "American Idol" world?
3) What one urban legend is this artist most associated with.

1:  "New World Coming" by (Mama) Cass Elliot

2:  I do not watch American Idol.

3:  The urban myth is that she died by choking on a ham sandwich.  I believe it was a heart attack.

Neither do I but presumably you've been forced to endure it if only briefly.  So question two still stands....

Are you referring to her less-than-movie-star appearance?

She was a full-figured gal and proud of it!

Paul gets this round.  It's amazing how little singing talent actually goes into the music business these days.

Thanks, Phillip.  Mama Cass was class.

Since there will be likely no round tomorrow, here is a more complicated one to work on.  In this round, I am giving you the song title.  It's "Never Can Say Goodbye."  But there are seven different versions here.  Your job is to identify each one by artist.  Some are very easy dead giveaways, others may require some research with a music search engine to identify (and I could have made it even worse if I threw in even more)!

If you won the last round, you should abstain from this one, but then you're back in for the next unless folks stay stumped and I throw it open completely.
