Both have long hair and beards. And although it's difficult to spot due to his constant bandanna wearing, Willie Nelson also sports a bad swastika tattoo on his forehead.

My first thought was that maybe Guns & Roses covered both artists-- G&R sure have a plethora of bad covers don't they? Upon further review, I found out that Manson covered Willie Nelson's "Night Life" on an obscure (limited to 1000 copies) 1967 album by Mr. Manson, called All the Way Alive.

"Miss Misery" by Elliott Smith

AND

"My Heart Will Go On" by Celine Dion

Does this have to be through music and not film?

Just curious...

Any connection works . . . I think you're on the right track.

Oh I got it.

"My Heart Will Go On" beat out "Miss Misery" for Best Song at the 1998 Oscars.

That wasn't what I was thinking of, but I didn't know that. Go ahead.

Mine was: They both had songs used by photo companies. Robert Smith with Pictures of You and Andre 3000 with Hey Ya (shake it like a Polaroid!!!).

Yours are tough man. Again, you made me work for this. My original thought was that all artists released albums that had artwork that looked similar to Yes' Tales From Topographic Oceans. Then I had to track down who did that cover. After some Google factchecking, it turns out that Roger Dean painted covers for all three.

How about:

"(Don't Fear) The Reaper" - Blue Oyster Cult

and

"Exit Music (For A Film)" - Radiohead

I like that one. They're both about Romeo and Juliet.

Ok I've got a good one (maybe). Let's see how tough it is. Go from Jonathan Richman to Ian Curtis. I can do it in 6 steps. Or Jonathan Richman to Mark E. Smith in 5. Either way. Maybe that makes it easier.

Jonathan Richman >> Ian Curtis

1. Richman's band, The Modern Lovers' first album was produced by John Cale.

2. John Cale also produced the Stooges first album.

3. The Stooges' Raw Power was mixed by David Bowie.

4. David Bowie collaborated with Trent Reznor on "I'm Afraid of Americans"

5. Reznor's Nine Inch Nails covered Joy Division's "Dead Souls" for the soundtrack to The Crow.

Nice! I thought mine was a little unwieldy... I went JR-John Cale-Nico-Blue Orchids-John Cooper Clarke/Invisible Girls-Martin Hannet-Ian Curtis.

It shows that I'm a noob at this degrees of separation thing, but it IS fun.

Andrew Lloyd Webber

Madonna has done songs by both Webber ("Don't Cry For Me Argentina") and Henry ("Don't Tell Me"), and oh by the way, Madonna is Henry's sister-in-law!

10cc

and

Pearl Jam

Ha. Both band names were rumored (but denied by the bands) to be inspired by male ejaculation. I hope that's what you were going for.

I'm too lazy to come up with another puzzle right now, if anyone else wants a shot, feel free to post. Maybe this can just be the thread where MJ and I answer useless rock trivia.

All right, you've had several hours to come up with something now.

I definitely had to look this one up: both of those songs are based on French films.

Okay, here's one that involves four artists-- they all have one thing in common however:

King Crimson

AND

Emerson, Lake & Palmer

AND

Yes

AND

The Buggles
