And the correct answers (in case you missed one or two) are:
1. Dobie Gray first recorded the song in 1979. Heart's later version featured new lyrics by Robert John "Mutt" Lange.
2. "The One and Only" was prominently used in *Buddy’s Song*. Chesney Hawkes starred alongside Roger Daltrey.
3. Jimmy Jam & Terry Lewis crafted the production for "Saturday Love," a great duo in the Minneapolis sound.
4. The Beloved's first release of "Your Love Takes Me Higher" was in 1989. It resonates with early house influences.
5. “Secret Love” led the album *High Civilization*. It peaked across European charts in 1991.
6. “Here We Are” had a Portuguese version titled “Toda Pra Você” for the Exitos De Gloria Estefan compilation.
7. Adrian Vandenberg was credited but did not play on "The Deeper the Love." Injuries kept him from the recording.
8. Eileen Daly appeared in the music video, creating a moody visual for Soft Cell's torch song.
9. "Too Late to Say Goodbye" was the fourth single. It showcased Marx’s rock-balladeer strengths.
10. Feargal Sharkey's "I've Got News for You" reached No. 12 on the UK Singles Chart in 1991.
11. Sinéad O'Connor's manager, Fachtna O’Kelly, suggested she record "Nothing Compares 2 U". It was a fortuitous decision.
12. David Fincher directed the "Shattered Dreams" video, adding a stylistic black-and-white flair typical of late '80s pop.
