A bit confusing with several hints having the exact same song... great idea though! Where would we be without Stock, Aitken, Waterman!!!

Evidently Aitken was a bit of a freeloader ;) But blimey it threw me seeing that "Gangsta's Paradise" and "I Just Called To Say I Love You" were by the same person! (Of course it was a cowriting credit for the sample, I see that now.) I kept typing in David Furnish instead of Bernie Taupin. Whoops!
