Three to tango

1. Connect.



The answer is Eagles. The Beverly Hills Hotel appears on the Hotel California album cover; and the place is in the second pic is called Standing on a corner (lyrics of Take it Easy). The placard there mentions a dedication to Eagles as well.

Answered by Sethu and Rishabh.




2. Connect.






Asterix is the connect. The first visual is the first French satellite launched - Asterix-I (a dedication to Asterix). You see Goscinny and Uderzo in the next pic. The Adventures of the Gummi Bears is an animated series where a bunch of people have a magic potion that gives them superhuman strength, which is along the same lines as Asterix.

Sethu got this...good one!




3. Another connect. These are the first five people out of many (Not in the same order)





























Psyche and Rishabh cracked this. These are the first five people mentioned in We Didn't Start The Fire (all references in the year 1949, that's where the chronological ordering of events starts off in the song).

From the top: Doris Day, Joe Di Maggio, Walter Winchell, Johnnie Ray and Harry Truman at the bottom.

1)The Eagles; Hotel California(the album cover) and Takin' it Easy(Standing on a corner in Winslow...):D

2)Asterix;that's the first french satellite that was named "Asterix" as a tribute; Gosciny and Uderzo, I assume and that's some series that was inspired by the Asterix comics or something da...:P
