All of the matches on the most recent consolidation and since then are correct. One song on the consolidation is still wrong.

I still can't find a Kool and the Gang song amongst the unknowns, for instance (And since that's the last part of the match that convinced me of the Tangredi, wouldn't that be a kick in the head?)

52. Have some fun,
Have some fun,
Have some fun,
Burn it up,
Let's burn up the night, baby.
This could be "Big Fun" by K&tG, but I'm not sure.
It would be awesome if it was, because that would complete two partials for me. That song doesn't ring a bell for me, which might explain why I wasn't recognizing it.

52. BIG fun + TIME + 15. genie IN A BOTTLE = Big Time (120. Peter Gabriel) + Time in a Bottle (74. Jim Croce)

2. WELCOME TO THE black parade + JUNGLE + 91. cow cow BOOGIE = Welcome to the Jungle (115. Guns and Roses) + Jungle Boogie (52. Kool and the Gang)

Well, carp. I'll go back and see if I figure out which one from the original consolidation. I thought both of the wrong ones had been identified, but I see that I was incorrect.

Found it! 107. Should be TRUE COLORS, probably by Cyndi Lauper -- I think she did it before Phil Collins.

Found what I was looking for:

61. Big man, you got money in your hand,
So what?
You're at a table for two, but still there's only you,
Big shot!

RUBY ANN - Marty Robbins

which completes

AND

Another one I knew but didn't realize until the drive home today.

I know I can make it
With just a little bit of soul.

I shouldn't be surprised that alternative matches show up. ONE of these is what I had in mind. The other one can be formed three or four other ways.

6. Not more than three short years ago,
I was abandoned and alone
Without a penny to my name,
So very young and so afraid,
No proper shoes upon my feet,
Sometimes I couldn't even eat.

MAKE IT HAPPEN, Mariah Carey

13. She makes the hairs on the back of my neck stand up,
Just one touch and I erupt
Like a volcano and cover her with my love.

SEXY LOVE, Ne-Yo

49. I can't explain it, how you made me open up
And you showed me things I never thought I'd do.
I'd hate to think of ever losing you,
Cause there is no one that makes me feel the way you do.

SOME KIND OF LOVER, Jody Watley... we've certainly been seeing a lot of Jody Watley lately in lyrics games

This one must lead to Grand Funk Railroad's "Some Kind of WONDERFUL". Eric Clapton has already been used, so "Wonderful Tonight" is out for the second half of that link.

55. F**k that, someone help Denaun,
He’s upstairs wrestling with Elton John.
Hey Von, you see me stepping on these leprechauns?
It gotta be Tums, the Ex-lax is gone.

Without a doubt, the worst song in music history: PURPLE PILLS (or PURPLE HILLS if Frank is going for the censored version) by Eminem's group, D12.

This one must lead to Prince's "Purple RAIN". A lot of song titles beginning with "Rain".

64. See, my days are cold without you
But I'm hurtin' while I'm with you,
And though my heart can't take no more
I keep on running back to you.

FOOLISH, Ashanti

78. Close the door, leave the cold outside,
I don't need nothing when I'm by your side.
We got something that'll never die,
Our dreams, our pride.

BORN TO BE MY BABY, Bon Jovi

We have Steppenwolf on the list, so this will definitely lead to "Born to Be WILD".

Some other matches to consider:

50. I GO + CRAZY + 73. ON YOU = I Go Crazy (32. Paul Davis) and Crazy on You (105. Heart)

88. BOOGIE + NIGHTS + 58. ON BROADWAY = Boogie Nights (30. Heatwave) and Nights on Broadway (113. The Bee Gees)

49. SOME KIND OF + WONDERFUL + 119. WONDERFUL = Some Kind of Wonderful (28. Grand Funk Railroad) and Wonderful Wonderful (79. Johnny Mathis)

81. WHEN YOU'RE + MAD + 38. ABOUT YOU = When You're Mad (13. Ne-Yo) and Mad About You (106. Belinda Carlisle)

108. I WANNA + ROCK + 82. WITH YOU = I Wanna Rock (23. Twisted Sister) and Rock with You (40. Michael Jackson)

60. DOUBLE + VISION + 121. OF LOVE = Double Vision (48. Foreigner) and Vision of Love (6. Mariah Carey)

This could be the song used twice in the same foursome

And we need to find the match for your Neil Diamond Forever in Blue Jeans match, too.

that one has been driving me crazy because everything that looks good is a dead end.

This one was driving me crazy. I saw "Heaven Knows" several days ago, but I couldn't get Donna Summer out of my head.

I don’t think we’ve used 54. We Can’t Stop yet as a title, even though there’s a star there. 65. The Doors also had a star there that shouldn’t have been, as far as I can tell. That means that 83. is the song that’s used three times in two different capacities.

18. MAGIC + BUS + 54. We can’t STOP = Magic Bus (75. The Who) + Bus Stop (98. The Hollies)

99. DON’T WORRY + BABY + 33. I’M YOURS = Don’t worry, Baby (5. Beach Boys) + Baby I’m Yours (83. Barbara Lewis)
