RESULTS and ANSWER KEY for Golden Oldies Lyrics Quiz #358 (GOLQ358)
Congratulations to our THREE co-winners, each of which had perfect scores:
EJ'S & Co., Village Idiots, and Delphi Trivia Club; and to DEC & Friends, who
were perfect except for the artists on #23 and T2. Three of the more difficult
songs were #6, #7, and #8, all of which were somewhat obscure immediate
follow-ups to pretty big initial hits. As several teams noted, the tribute
song was #24, in honor of Bobby Vee, who passed away at the age of 73 on
October 24th, just as I was writing this quiz.
As always, thanks to everyone who entered! Mike Weaver has already posted the
December 2016 quiz (GOLQ #359).

GOLDEN OLDIES LYRICS QUIZ #358 ANSWERS:
Answers are in the form:
#number) Artist: "Title" (chart year) [peak Pop] {peak R&B} <xxx>...<yyy>
where:
"peak Pop" = Peak position achieved on the weekly Billboard Pop chart.
"peak R&B" = Peak position on the weekly Billboard Rhythm & Blues chart.
(Billboard didn't publish an R&B chart between 11/30/63 and 1/23/65,
so recordings in that interval show peak R&B of {n/c} ("no chart").)
"xxx",...,"yyy" = prior GOLQ(s) in which the song appeared, if any.

That's what they tell me
That's what they say

Wear your store-bought clothes and your stomping shoes
Better head for the hills, gonna blow my fuze
Hooo, I'm gonna shout
#19) Guy Mitchell: "Rock-A-Billy" (57) [10] <61>

As something comes into her mind
And slowly starts dancing remembering her girlhood

Until the day she's found
She needs me back again
But this I ask 'til then
#24) Vee, Bobby: "Please Don't Ask About Barbara" (1962) [15] <50><223>

For drinks and tips
But most the time I spend behind these county bars
'Cause I drinks a bit"

And the smell of their roses does not remain
And all of your children start to resent you
Won't you come see me
