Those are all correct.
157) The artist you guessed for this sang on this song with Bolton as a duet. The original charted at AC around the same time as the song you guessed.

Yes indeed! That song always takes me back to the fall of 1989, when Sunny 101.5 played that song all the time. The Bolton/LaBelle version wasn't bad, but nothing tops the Streisand version (though I have an idea or two about your comment on the song) Anyhoo... 155) This song always makes me feel like I'm in a tropical rainforest. 154) A song about a young man in denial of the fact that his GF is cheating on him. 153) A song about the Old West from an artist who was born there. 152) A cover of my favorite 80s song. 151) Another remake of a song that has been covered many times over. This one was a teaming of two great 70s artists who paired up once before in the late-70s. GOOD LUCK!!

Well, you did get the first one correct, but not the second one.
155) The sound effects heard in this song give it that "tropical rain forest" feel.
154) This song was produced by a jazz great.
153) This artist used to be married to a man who was born in Detroit.
151) Both artists had many hits in the 1970s (Kiki Dee only had one other Top 40 hit besides the duets).

151. Carly Simon & James Taylor - Devoted To You? Well, you are getting warmer. Details about that are in my next clue for the song. 155) The artist of this song had been on quite a roll for over two decades, but his chart career seemed to hit a brick wall, as this song was the follow-up to his final Top Ten hit. 154) Both artists (the singer and the producer) were on one of this past week's retro AT40 shows. 153) During the time the were married, the two artists I was talking about were a famous singing couple. 151) You did get one of the artists correct. FWIW, regarding the song in the 70s (which was also a cover), I said that the two artists teamed up, but it wasn't necessarily a duet.

151. Art Garfunkel & James Taylor - Crying In The Rain? (their cover of "(What A) Wonderful World" also had Paul Simon on it!)

That is correct.
155) This artist first hit #1 before the Beatles era and his most recent #1 was two singles before the one in question.
154) The producer had a few chart hits of his own. His first one, with the band he headed up, charted in 1978, during which time the members of the band with the song in question were still in elementary school.
153) This woman, famous for her 60s and 70s hits, had her very first #1 song near the end of the decade (mind you; that is not the song in question).

Very good - you got both songs correct!
Still stumped on #153, are you?
Well, we established that she was big in the 60s and 70s. At the end of the latter decade, she took a hiatus from the Top 40. Her last hit during that time helped wake a fan of hers from a coma. Whem she returned to the charts in the late-1980s, she was almost as big as she was during her first wave of popularity, hitting the Top Ten twice. This was her first 1990s hit.

Very good!
150) This song and a song from four years later sound very similar in the verses (which I later found out was not exactly coincidence).
149) This song, from a very successful movie soundtrack, was the top song of its year on practically every year-end chart I heard that year, due to its immense success.
148) This song always makes me hungry for a Hershey's bar.
147) This song teamed up the former lead singer of a 60s band with a member of another R&B Motown band who had a Top 20 hit in early 1978.
146) The least successful of three Top 40 hits for this R&B band who changed their name when they became a duo.
GOOD LUCK!!
