One half of #1 is pretty easy (as easy as one-two-three, do-re-mi, etc.), but is the other half of #1 The Commodores' "Night Shift?"
eta: Nope, I just checked -- and that song mentions Marvin (Gaye) and Jackie (Wilson).
--- End quote ---
which itself would be half the answer to "what two '80s hits mention Marvin by name?"

Nice way to beat around the bush on ABC. I spent at least half a minute trying to get the reference (that's either a complement to both of us - if it takes me longer than 5 secs it usually means it's a stumper - or a clear sign that I'm losing my mind)

OK, now I'm confused -- I'm thinking of "True", as the princess says above. But that song doesn't mention Smokey.
