Yes.

The big hint will come next Q.

I hope I didn't scare Oz away by stepping out of bounds.

Has the band in question had any top 100 hits around the world?

You did say it wouldn't be easy. I'm hoping it's not some band like "Admiral Poopy Pants and His Dancing Teeth" that played at the local bingo hall on Friday night.

Highly doubtful. An obscure artist doesn't get that airplay.

Big hint: trig's 1st Q is the vein you should explore. It is a coin game after all. .

Going on the last hint I'll ask one more question then hand it over to the old timers.

If the song doesn't involve "a penny", does the song involve "pennies".

I would imagine it's the same question, a penny or pennies, if it doesn't mention a penny then several wouldn't make sense:p....maybe another denomination? Or maybe the question was wrong, as it's an American song
We don't have pennies, so maybe it mentions cents... ...

What years do we have it narrowed down to? 1980-1983?

It depends on how pedantic Loonielewy is with the queens english. One is singular, one is plural.

But they do in America. We don't know where the song was written, only that it's an American band.

I think we need a breakdown with the questions I'm getting a little list on my phone lol, so we have a song with 6 words in the title, written sometime around 1950-60s(ish) depending the age of the person who sung it in loonies version

The song title has 6 words in it and was released some time between 1980-1983? Or if it was written before 1983 does that mean between 1989-1982?

The song in question was originally sung by many people but in the version we are looking for it was sung by one artist? I think I'm missing some stuff here lol.

Also the song was performed in america and does not mention a penny. I'll wait for a better breakdown and the last questions answered before moving forward. I think with 6 words in the title and was released within a 2-3 year period sung by a single artist narrows it down a fair bit. Thanks for loonie dropping the hit of 6 words.

@kieth12 that does fit but it seems it was done by Barry Manilow in 83 but I think that had another singer.

I don't think I have ever heard an American refer to a cent as anything but a penny.

Is the U.S. coin in this song a denomination of less than half dollar?

Almost every day in the Americain error forum I see members correcting new members that say penny. The coins say cent just like Canadian but I don't think I have ever heard it refered to as a cent by non collectors so I guess numismatic accuracy dosnt matter with this sort of question lol.
