For "Famous Weather Pattern"? No. The title is "I Ran" and the puzzle clues relate to the title only. Sorry...

Don't ask me why, but I thought of this as well, but couldn't make the connection with Wildcat slayer. Where is the connection?

Also, I knew that ZZ Top one, just couldn't think of the name of the song, could only remember the album!

I'm not getting a number of these, even after they're answered (they just seem a bit too tenuous to me), so I'm not actively participating, but...I know enough to say that Oasis wasn't around in the 80's.
