There are 5 acts, each doing 2 of their songs.

Doesnt have to be their most popular, could be an album track.

Doesnt matter how far back you go.

Might be a solo artist, or a group, but they all have one thing in common !

 

Mainstay of the piece is dead ! :(

 

Any genre, its your choice !

 

Will start the ball rolling with mine.

 

 

1. Elvis Presley,

Suspicious Minds and Burning Love.

 

2. Johny Cash,

I Walk The Line and Rusty Cage.

 

3. Phil Lynott, (Thinlizzy)

5. Michael Hutchence, (INXS)

We all have different taste so please don't knock Scoops just because his is bad ;)

 

However good they were though, when I play either of their CDs, they are never quite as good as I remember so Scoops may have a bit of a point :nono:
