MUSIC QUIZ FROM LOONEY’S TUNES SHOW Nov 12, 2023 #250

*This great artist is known not only by the band he fronted, but also as a most significant producer and engineer…working on notable albums with The Beatles and Pink Floyd.  Name the artist…
 
*We’ll enjoy a song from 1992 where the artist sings from the perspective of a man whose long-term marriage is coming to an end.  He’s looking back at all they went through, wondering if they can find a way to make it last.  While his marriage was strong at the time, the song came true for him in a literal sense in 2014 when he and wife split up.  Name the artist…
 
*1964 was the release of this song that was conceived as a follow-up to The Ronettes, #2 hit, Be My Baby.  The writer for this great band heard it on the radio and wondered aloud if he could match it.  His wife had some comforting words for him, assuring him he could…and those words became the title for the track.  Name the song and extra credit for the artist as well…
 
*Saturday Night Live used to be really good back in the day (Full Disclosure...I haven’t seen one in quite some time), but the leader of this great band used to watch it religiously back then as well.  He caught a performance on one of the episodes that became an inspiration for a song the band released in 1992.  Name the band, the leader and extra credit for the name of the band…
