7. Now don't you wonder how you'll survive until spring.
HINT: 1978 - Top 40 Hot 100 hit - group's only charter - Julius Caesar might be able to give you crossing advice


Caesar crossed the Rubicon. So the group is called Rubicon.  I can't place the song, however.


7. Now don't you wonder how you'll survive until spring.
HINT #2: Brad Gillis and Jack Blades were members of this group.


So they were in Rubicon before Night Ranger, I never knew.

You can name the group Rubicon but have knowledge of more than one song? Impressive...


I never heard of Rubicon until you OK'd my guess which is why I can't think of any of their songs.  I now have Journey's Rubicon stuck in my head, however.

The title is slightly off. The artist is incredibly off. I suppose this is the version which would pop up for most of these lyrics, but reading the original set should show you why it's a tad ridiculous. The year I gave in the hint should also be a bit of a flag...

So I'm gonna give this a close on half but no cigar on either. A sensible artist guess and I probably would have let the title slide, but the version I've used does slightly alter it.


Ah, the lyrics are from male's perspective.  How about the Lettermen?
