Yes

Not sure if this is going to be the most productive path, but we'll see.

Ok... I'm gonna throw away a question on a weird intuition...

Was this song ever used as the theme song for a TV show?

Not that I know of, but I can't swear it wasn't and don't know how to check that, so I'm not going to charge you for this one.

“The three possibilities”.

If it’s >0% it’s outside those 3 then I think my question is fine and imo it’s pretty weak to condescendingly criticize a play if you aren’t prepared to offer a better one.

Yeah, I don't get the hate either. The song didn't necessarily have to make the charts immediately upon release, and it's nice to make sure you're headed in the right direction.

I was a bit annoyed because it seemed like you asked the question without even reading all the previous posts. You were talking about coming up with a list without even acknowledging the three possibilities I had just posted.

Ahh okay that’s what this is about. And that’s fair. I should have checked those more carefully than I did before I started making the list.

Condescending was probably the wrong word. It was just pretty clear that you were upset about the q and it seemed unwarranted, but I get it now. My bad.

Was the song performed by a person primarily known as a solo act?

3 questions, but only 2 of them count:

1. Is the person who performs this song a male?
2. Is the person who performs this song currently alive?
** Does not count** How many questions are we up to?

This is a punt and I will bow out to not **** it up any more after asking when I'm wrong but...

Was the song released posthumously?

Dang it, was totally hoping you said yes and it was Otis Redding's Sitting on the Dock of the Bay.

Ok, now that I've sufficiently screwed up, someone else can save the day..

(And that reached #1, so I really, really threw there

)

I guess this is Questions 11 & 12.

11. Is the artist associated with this song in the RnR HOF?
12. Did this song chart on the Billboard Hot 100 list at any time?

1-5 Released between 1965-1969
6 Did not reach #1
7-9 dead solo male performer
10 performer not in the RnR HoF
11 song hit the top 100

I'll give a pass on the brain fart posthumous Q, not many of those.

12. Did it ever make the top 40 of the Billboard Hot 100?

——————

13 depends on results of 12:

If yes, did it ever make the top 20?

If no, did it ever make the top 70?
