I guess they lowered their admission standards during those 20 years :-)] Don't you ever leave me sad and blue Don't you ever tell me we are through Don't you ever hurt me, if you do Everything they're saying will be true #05) "People Say" -- The Dixie Cups (1964) Talking on the phone is not my speed Don't send me no letter 'cause I can't read #06) "I'm Ready" -- Fats Domino (1959) [A lot of people knew it was Fats Domino, but didn't know the title.] It's so hard to find a personality With charms like yours for me #07) "What's Your Name" -- Don & Juan (1962) The movie wasn't so hot It didn't have much of a plot We fell asleep, our goose is cooked Our reputation is shot #08) "Wake Up Little Susie" -- The Everly Brothers (1957/1958) [Virtually everyone knew this one. Barry & Joe think this song was actually banned for a while in Boston for being too "risque"!] The purpose of a man is to love a woman And the purpose of a woman is to love a man #09) "Game of Love" -- Wayne Fontana & The Mindbenders (1965) [Minus one point for forgetting The Mindbenders.] Should've told you that I can't linger There's a wedding band on my finger #10) "Bye, Bye, Baby (Baby Goodbye)" -- The 4 Seasons (1965) I knew a man that I did not care for And then one day, this man gave me a call We sat and talked about things on our mind And now this man, he is a friend of mine #11) "Reach Out of the Darkness" -- Friend and Lover (1968) It may be on a Sunday morning It may be on a Tuesday afternoon But no matter what the day is I'm going to make it my business to get home soon #12) "A Thousand Miles Away" -- The Heartbeats (1956/1957) [The lead singer of The Heartbeats was James Sheppard, who later formed Shep & The Limelites. The latter group's 1961 hit "Daddy's Home" was the "answer" song to "A Thousand Miles Away."] Things have changed She doesn't love me now She's made it clear enough It ain't no good to pine #13) "Mrs. Brown You've Got a Lovely Daughter" -- Herman's Hermits (1965) Watch the jingle-jangle start to shine Reflections of the music that is mine #14) "Green Tambourine" -- The Lemon Pipers (1967/1968) You may leave here for four days in space But when you return, it's the same old place #15) "Eve of Destruction" -- Barry McGuire (1965) [McGuire was formerly in The New Christy Minstrels.] Many people don't understand They think lovin' is money in the hand #16) "Love Is Strange" -- Mickey & Sylvia (1957) [This song was considered quite risque in 1957, because some of the lyrics were thought to be sexually suggestive. Rick & Kathy Schubert cited a cover of this song by Peaches & Herb in 1967. Sylvia (Sylvia Robinson) had a big hit with "Pillow Talk" in 1973.] I'm never, never, never gonna speed again Shoot the juice to me, Bruce #17) "Transfusion" -- Nervous Norvus (1956) [A pretty bizarre tune; frequently included in novelty-song collections by Dr. Demento, etc.] How long can I exist Wanting lips I've never kissed She gives all her kisses To somebody else #18) "It Hurts to Be in Love" -- Gene Pitney (1964) Lost control and rang your bell I was sore Let me in or else I'll beat Down your door #19) "Silhouettes" -- The Rays (1957/1958) [Herman's Hermits did a cover of this tune in 1965.] There's a house on the hill And a girl in the house #20) "Bimbombey" -- Jimmie Rodgers (1958/1959) [This turned out to be the toughest question, with only 3 correct responses. A few people guessed "Down in the Boondocks" by Billy Joe Royal. Bob Marshall pointed out a similar lyric in that song: Every night I watch the light From the house up on the hill I love a little girl who lives up there And I guess I always will] There'll be no strings to bind your hands Not if my love can't bind your heart #21) "Angel of the Morning" -- Merrilee Rush & The Turnabouts (1968) [Covered by Juice Newton in 1981. Barry & Joe mentioned that this song was written by Chip Taylor, who also wrote "Wild Thing" for the Troggs. Steven Levine opined that the chorus ought to be "Just brush my teeth before you leave me." :-) Minus one point if you omitted The Turnabouts.] I can see the dancin' The silhouettes on the shade I hear the music All the lovers on parade #22) "Let Me In" -- The Sensations (1962) I know this may sound strange I want you back, I think you'll change But there's one more thing I gotta say #23) "Hats Off to Larry" -- Del Shannon (1961) [I think Del was the first American artist to cover a Beatles tune. He recorded his version of "From Me to You" in 1963, just before the dawn of Beatlemania.] So if you're thinkin' of how great true love is All you gotta do Is hold him and kiss him and squeeze him and love him #24) "Wishin' and Hopin'" -- Dusty Springfield (1964) I got troubles, oh-oh I got worries, oh-oh I got wounds to bind #25) "You Were on My Mind" -- We Five (1965) ############################################################################# Look for Quiz #12 which will be posted within 24 hours.
