RESULTS & ANSWER KEY for Golden Oldies Lyrics Quiz #202 (GOLQ202)

Congratulations to Mick Tursky and Jean O'Shea, who make up Across The Boarder,
for their perfect score on a difficult quiz.  Only tie-breaker #T1 kept the
team of Randy Price and Peter Morley from joining them at the top.  Even more
frustrated must be the third-place Village Idiots, who, of all the entrants
(living up to their name?), was the only team to misidentify the title of #02.
We also want to acknowledge the fourth-place EJ's & Co., who came within one
song of a 500.

This quiz had a mean score of 335 and a median score of 359.

Rich Ardini will be posting GOLQ203 within the next week or so.  Our thanks
go out to all who participated.

GOLDEN OLDIES LYRICS QUIZ #202 ANSWERS:

Answers are in the form:
#number) Artist: Title (year[s]) [peak position on Pop chart] {peak R&B}

[-]   = did not make pop chart
{-}   = did not make R&B chart
{F}   = made R&B chart as a flip side
{n/c} = no Billboard R&B chart published during this recording's period
        of peak popularity

Sometime you'll have to cry
Sometime you'll have to lie
You're gonna live until you die
#01) Allison, Gene: You Can Make It If You Try (1957/58) [36] {3}

The movement you need is on your shoulder
#02) Beatles, The: Hey Jude (1968/69) [1] {-}

     #1 for 9 weeks, a chart-topping feat that had not been accomplished
     since Percy Faith's "The Theme From 'A Summer Place'" 8 years earlier
     and would not be again until Debby Boone's "You Light Up My Life"
     9 years later.

We're after the same rainbow's end
#03) Butler, Jerry: Moon River (1961/62) [11] {14}

     Charted concurrently with Henry Mancini's version, which also rose
     to #11, but lasted longer on the charts.  Mancini (music) and Johnny
     Mercer (lyrics) wrote the song for the Audrey Hepburn and George
     Peppard movie, "Breakfast at Tiffany's."  It won the 1962 Academy Award
     for Best Original Song.  After the very first screening of "Breakfast at
     Tiffany's", the president of Paramount paced around the room, puffing on
     a cigar, and said, "Well, I'll tell you one thing, you can get rid of
     the song."  Thankfully, Hepburn was there and said, "Over my dead body!"

As I walk through this world
#04) Chandler, Gene: Duke Of Earl (1962) [1] {1}

     "Duke Of Earl" was actually by The Dukays, with Gene as lead singer.
     This song's popularity made a name for singer Eugene "Chandler" Dixon.
     However, despite over 20 pop chart singles, none by Gene cracked the
     the top 10 again.  Chandler, Lloyd Price, Ben E. King, and Jerry Butler
     formed "The 4 Kings of Rhythm & Blues" in 1999.

Please stop doin' the things you're doin'
I know we can get along
Your luck will run out one day, you'll see
And then your lovin' heart will belong to me
#05) Clark, Dee: Just Keep It Up (1959) [18] {9}

'Cause you cheated (cheated) cheated (cheated) cheated (cheated)
Cheated on me, girl
Yes, you told me a whole lot of lies
#06) Deal, Bill, & the Rhondels: I've Been Hurt (1969) [35] {-}

     Written by Ray Whitley.  Recorded by the Tams in 1965.  Whitley also
     wrote "What Kind Of Fool Do You Think I Am," which also was recorded
     by both The Tams and Bill Deal & the Rhondels.

There'll be a time when I may fail
I'll need your love to comfort me
Bitter days may prevail
But just a kiss from you will make them sweet
#07) Dells: Stay In My Corner (1968) [10] {1}

     The Illinois R&B vocal group's only top 10 hit beside 1969's "Oh,
     What A Night."  Both, however, were #1 R&B hits.

I've got a love so true
And yet I'm sad and blue
#08) Essex, The: Easier Said Than Done (1963) [1] {1}

     The Essex were five members of the U. S. Marine Corps.  Though this
     is often considered a "girl group" song, in fact only lead singer Anita
     Humes was female.

You don't know, you don't know how much I care
You don't know the torch I bear
#09) Flemons, Wade, & the Newcomers: Here I Stand (1958/59) [80] {19}

And after all the loves of my life
Oh, after all the loves of my life
I'll be thinking of you
And wondering why
#10) Harris, Richard: MacArthur Park (1968) [2] {-}

     Ron Anderson: This and the above "Hey Jude" are two of the longest
     45's to ever chart.

     Songwriter Jimmy Webb's pining over a lost relationship.  Webb once
     said that he loved Harris' improvisational style and would jump at
     the chance to work with him again on a sequel to "MacArthur Park."
     However, Harris, who played Professor Dumbledore in the Harry Potter
     movies, died last October.

Oh, my friend, we're older but no wiser
For in our hearts the dreams are still the same
#11) Hopkin, Mary: Those Were the Days (1968/69) [2] {-}

     The melody is based on a traditional Russian folk song.

Although I know you are gone
Memories still linger on
From your love I'll never be free
You'll always be a part of me
#12) Hughes, Fred: Oo Wee Baby, I Love You (1965) [23] {3}

     The last two lines gave reasonable rise to a few guesses of "Always
     Something There To Remind Me."

I'll be your love 'til the end ('til the end of) of ('til the end of) time
#13) Jay & the Americans: Cara, Mia (1965) [4] {-}

     Out concurrently with TV program, "The Addams Family," in which
     Gomez Addams often referred to wife Morticia as "cara mia."

Let me tell you something, baby, I'm gonna give you some good news
Look a-here, sweet mama, let's burn off both our shoes
#14) Lewis, Jerry Lee, And His Pumping Piano:
       High School Confidential (1958) [21] {5}

     Claimed Lewis once, "When they look back on me I want 'em to remember
     me not for all my wives, although I've had a few, and certainly not for
     any mansions or high livin' money I made and spent.  I want 'em to
     remember me simply for my music."  Also: "As long as they gimme a piano
     I'll be out there.  They try to take that away, I'm gonna kick some ass."

Well, in a villa, in a little old I-talian town
#15) Mann, Carl: Mona Lisa (1959) [25] {24}

     Also done by Conway Twitty in 1959 and of course Nat "King" Cole (#1)
     in 1950.

Hold me close and say you're mine
With a love as warm as wine
I'm at heaven's door
#16) Martin, Dean: Innamorata (1956) [27] {-}

How I long to feel your touch
(How I yearn for your touch)
Why'd you go, why'd you stray
(Why'd you go, why'd you stray)
When I love you oh so much?
(When I love you so much?)
#17) McPhatter, Clyde: Seven Days (1956) [44] {-}

Give a dog a bone
This old man came rolling home
#18) Miller, Mitch, & His Orch. and Chorus:
       The Children's Marching Song (Nick Nack Paddy Whack) (1959) [16] {-}

     Based on the traditional children's song, "This Old Man."

I can't find the words to tell you
Just how much I really love you
If you feel the same way I do
You will know the love I have here for you
#19) New Colony Six, The: I Will Always Think About You (1968) [22] {-}

Is there a secret you can tell everyone?
Do you know more than men that are wise?
Can you see what we all must disguise
Through your loving eyes?
#20) Peter, Paul & Mary: Day Is Done (1969) [21] {-}

     Their penultimate single, preceding their only #1, "Leaving On A
     Jet Plane."

I got a brand new suit, a new pair of shoes
You can't lose, now, with the stuff I use
Baby, help me to spend this dough
Well, I'm all dressed up, ain't got no place to go
#21) Reed, Jimmy: The Sun Is Shining (1957) [65] {12}

I make it all right
From Monday morning to Friday night
#22) Rich, Charlie: Lonely Weekends (1960) [22] {-}

     Backed by The Gene Lowery Chorus.  The rockabilly/country singer known
     as "The Silver Fox" died in 1995.

Oh, my sweet Marie
I wait at your ease
#23) Rolling Stones, The: Lady Jane (1966) [24] {-}

     The flip side of "Mothers Little Helper."

Don't go along for the ride
Keep some semblance of pride
There's really nothing else you can do
#24) Wilson, Nancy: Face It Girl, It's Over (1968) [29] {15}

The hors d'oeuvres were fine
But I choked on my wine
When I learned that the main course was me
#25) Zacherle, John The Cool Ghoul: Dinner With Drac Part 1 (1958) [6] {19}

     Zacherle hosted horror movies on TV in Philadelphia.  This novelty
     recording was his only single.

------------
Tie-Breakers
------------

She's knock-kneed and bowlegged
She's pigeon-toed and lame
Oh my darling, oh my darling, darling, darling
I love you just the same
#T1) Archibald: She's Scattered Everywhere (1950) [-] {-}

     New Orleans pianist Archibald, born Leon T. Gross, had one hit on the
     R&B charts, "Stack-A'Lee (Parts I & II)," in 1950.  It was his version
     of this song that influenced another New Oreans singer, Lloyd Price,
     to record "Stagger Lee," which went on to become a #1 hit on both the
     R&B and pop charts.

I know just how to treat you
And make you love me strong
I never loved anyone else
And you taught me right from wrong
Yes, it's you
Yes, it's you
And I will always love you
So if you want me
#T2) Duprees, The: Take Me As I Am (1962) [-] {-}

     The flip side of "You Belong To Me," their only top 10 hit.
