RESULTS & ANSWER KEY for Golden Oldies Lyrics Quiz #414 (GOLQ414)
Congratulations once again to Delphi Trivia Club and the Village Idiots, both
teams having identified all 25 songs and artists in the main part of the quiz,
as well as both tie breakers.
In spite of songs #5, #6, #7, #12, #21, #22, and #23 being used for the first
time, most teams had no trouble identifying therm. Further, T1 turned out not
to be much of a tie breaker, because every team identified this classic rock
song by the late, great Eddie Cochran.
I missed seeing entries from several "regulars," but as always, thanks to
everyone who entered. Rich Ardini has already posted GOLQ 415, which includes
another signature Puzzler from Bob Bluestein!

GOLDEN OLDIES LYRICS QUIZ #414 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.

Ooh, well, I've got a gal with a record machine
When it comes to rockin' she's the queen
I love to dance on a Saturday night
All alone when I can hold her tight
But she lives on the 20th floor in town
The elevator's broken down
#T1) Cochran, Eddie: "Twenty Flight Rock" (1956/57) <->
Note: First recorded in 1956, then re-recorded and released in 1957, though it
failed to chart. Also featured in the movie, "The Girl Can't Help It."
According to Wikepedia, this was the song Paul McCartney first played to John
Lennon the day they met.
Do you wonder about me
Like I'm hoping you do
Are you lonesome without me
Have you found someone new
#T2) Louvin Brothers, The: "How's The World Treating You" (1961) <->
Note: Also accepted Jim Reeves as the artist. Written by Chet Atkins and
Boudleaux Bryant ("Bye Bye Love," "All I Have To Do Is Dream," etc.), Song has
been covered by multiple artists, most notably by Elvis Presley (who omits this
verse, and who is also featured in the main part of the quiz, so he is not
eligible as an artist) from his 1956 album, "Elvis," and covered beautifully
in a 2003 duet by Alison Krauss and James Taylor.

08.00 #22) Presley, Elvis, with The Jordanaires: "My Wish Came True"
05.00 #T2) Louvin Brothers, The: "How's The World Treating You"
Surprises: Association's, "No Fair At All" fared (no pun intended) much better
than I would have guessed. Although "My Wish Came True" was a flip side of
Elvis's "Big Hunk Of Love," it still hit #12 and I would have thought it to be
more easily identified than #15, #21, #23, and #25, all of which I intended to
be my "stumpers."
