I really thought The answer to the "Romeo" question was going to be And but still peeked because I could not figure the connection between 'randum' and 'memo'. "One of six" just stumped me completely, I don't like these meta clues. Also IMO the memorable part of a song is the Chorus but there's no Captain Chorus so. I have NO idea how Poland Spring is a thing

In reply to OP's spoiler text...

Poland Spring is a brand of bottled water in the US. The "randum" clue stumped me too, so I peeked, then "memorable" clicked. It wasn't until much later that I realized that "randum prefix" referred to the word "memorandum".

As a South American, clues that deal with specific brand names or old time sayings always stump me
