RESULTS and ANSWER KEY for Golden Oldies Lyrics Quiz #346 (GOLQ346)
Congratulations to our FOUR co-winners, each with perfect scores: The EJ's,
Village Idiots, DEC & Friends, and Delphi Trivia. Kudos also to Really
Rockin' In Boston and Will McCorry, who identified all 25 songs in the
main part of the quiz.
A number of teams may have known the theme, but Team Teitelbaum was the
only entrant to specifically state correctly that all the artists were
teenagers or pre-teenagers when their recordings hit the charts (or, in the
case of the tie breakers, when the recordings were released). Will McCorry
noted that all the artists were under 21, which is also a true statement.
As always, thanks to everyone who entered! Mike Weaver has already
posted GOLQ347.

GOLDEN OLDIES LYRICS QUIZ #346 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.
