My Three Songs #3

Post by Tdarcos »

Here's the three songs and since nobody seems to be able to get the answer unless the songs are here I'll include it:

1. Fifth Dimension, "Aquarius/Let the Sunshine In"
2. Survivor, "Eye of the Tiger"
3. Wang Chung, "Everybody Have Fun Tonight"

What do these three songs have in common?

Only one from the band to hit the top 100? Something like that?

"Let the Sunshine In", "Eye of the Tiger" and ""Everybody Have Fun Tonight" are all four words each.

No, but you're thinking.

Damn good, I wish I had thought of it, but no, that's not it.

Hint: Instead of checking the title, check the lyrics.

Three songs where the title is in the song.

Flack is right, you need to provide the 3 songs AND the one core clue in your OP.

No. That is the usual and common practice of most songs with lyrics, to include the title of the song in the lyrics.

Another hint: The titles of these songs is not relevant to the question of what they have in common.
