Welcome Oldies Fans!

Although I generally don't include "themes/threads" in my quizzes,
this particular quiz does contain several threads.  However, I suspect
finding the key to these threads will be rather challenging.  If you
think you've figured out any threads, let me know in your entry.

After the 25 regular songs, there will be 2 tie-breakers.  These 2
songs will not be in the alphabetical mix with the other 25 but will
be alphabetized with respect to one another.  What these 2 songs have
in common is that they do not fit the eligibility requirements for
inclusion in the regular part of the quiz: either they were released
prior to 1955 or else they were released between 1955 & 1969 but did
not hit the Top 100 on the Pop charts for the specific artist.

Overall, I would assess this quiz as being moderately difficult.

Good luck!

Barry

________________________________________________________________________

Heaven and heaven alone
Can take your love from me
'Cause I'd be a fool to ever leave you dear
And a fool I'd never be
#01)

He's the man
The man with the midas touch
A spider's touch
#02)

Yeah, the bad guys know us and they leave us alone
#03)

I got lumps in my throat when I saw her coming down the aisle
I got the wiggles in my knees when she looked at me and sweetly smiled
There she is again standing over by the record machine
Looking like a model on the cover of a magazine
She's too cute to be a minute over seventeen
#04)

Alone from night to night
You'll find me
Too weak to break this chain that binds me
I need no shackles to remind me
#05)

'Cause summertime is party time
And everything's alright
'Cause everyone is feeling fine
And every night is Saturday night
#06)

Everyone who is lonely
I've got a place for you
Where the music pla-a-ays
Till way past two
#07)

We'll have a big celebration
Send invitations to all our friends and relations
We'll have a ball
Dancing and all
#08)

When we're out together
Everyone knows the way we feel
We both seem to glow with the glow of love
And it's plain to see
Our love is real
#09)

The young and foolish laugh at love
And slowly run away
Confident and sure that fate
Will bring another love their way
#10)

Once I was your sweetheart
Now I'm just a friend
Once you really loved me
Now I just pretend
#11)

My remedy is older than the tale of Jack and Jill
My prescription is the kind you'd love to have me fill
#12)

I stand out of sight
And watch as the light
From the sun shines through her hair
From yonder she came
I don't know her name
#13)

Johnny jumped up and he hit him
'Cause he still loves me that's why
#14)

The representative from New York City
Is Lesley Gore
Now she sure looks pretty
#15)

He knows the meaning of success
His needs are more so he gives less
They call him the winner who takes all
#16)

In a restless world like this is
Love is ended before it's begun
And too many moonlight kisses
Seem to cool in the warmth of the sun
#17)

Where do all the hippies meet?
#18)

When I first saw you
With your smile so tender
My heart was captured
My soul surrendered
#19)

You're shiftless and you're lazy
Just like that hound dog Daisy
I had when Grandma raised me
#20)

Your mother who neglected you owes a million dollars tax
And your father's still perfecting ways of making sealing wax
#21)

What's in dancin'
Without romancin'
So put that something extra on the line
#22)

You drift through the years
And life seems tame
'Til one dream appears
And love is its name
#23)

I dig rock and roll music
I can do the twine and the jerk
I wear strictly continental suits
And high collar shirts
I've got a reputation of being gentle but bold
#24)

But all you do is treat me bad
Break my heart and leave me sad
Tell me what did I do wrong
To make you stay away so long
#25)

TIE BREAKERS:

We can share intrigue of all variety
What a pair of secret agents we can be
You'll be there beside me
Yes, and secretly, secretly
One kiss will make my heart beat faster
And love will be our secret password
#TB1)

I want to go, go, go
I want to know, know, know
Because I've read about it
Heard about it
Talked so very much about it
That's where we belong
#TB2)

General Rules for Golden Oldies Lyrics Quizzes:

(These rules have been based upon those from Rick Schubert, David
Griboff, Valentino Herrera, Barry Silk, Howard Teitelbaum, Ron
Crandall, Carole Hanrahan & Jamie Lubin)

1) PLEASE READ THESE RULES FIRST!!

2) The songs are listed in alphabetical order by artist - as it
   actually appeared on the original 45 record.  When I don't
   have access to the original 45, my source is Joel Whitburn's
   "Top Pop Singles 1955-1986" unless I have evidence indicating
   that source is incorrect.  Songs should be alphabetized
   according to the following rules, unless I've made a mistake:

   Names beginning with "Mc" are alphabetized as if they were spelled
   "Mac".
   Names beginning with "St." are alphabetized as if they were spelled
   "Saint".

   Artists' names that begin with a number will be alphabetized using
   the word equivalent of the number.

   If a song has been done by more than one artist, the correct
   response will be the one that fits alphabetically.  If you don't
   know which one fits alphabetically because you have not identified
   adjoining songs, you may include multiple artists in your entry,
   but you will only receive credit if you include the one that fits
   alphabetically.

   If a lead singer's name is used as part of the artist's name, the
   following alphabetization rules apply:
   - If the last name is used as in "Firstname Lastname & the Group"
     it will be alphabetized under Lastname.
   - If the last name is used as in "the Group featuring Firstname
     Lastname"
     it will be alphabetized under Group.
   - If the last name is not used as in "Firstname & the Group"
     it will be alphabetized under Firstname.
   - If no last name is used, but a nickname is used before the
     firstname as in "Nickname Firstname & the Group" is alphabetized
     under Nickname.

   For example:
   Artist                                        Alphabetized by
   "The Crickets featuring Buddy Holly"          "Crickets"
   "Buddy Holly & the Crickets"                  "Holly"
   "Little Anthony & the Imperials"              "Little"
   "Little Richard"                              "Little"
   "Little Peggy March"                          "March"
   "Martha & the Vandellas"                      "Martha"

3) Artists may be repeated from previous Golden Oldies quizzes.  An
   artist will not be used more than once in any given quiz.

4) Songs will not be repeated from previous Golden Oldies quizzes,
   whether by the same artist or by a different artist.  However, a
   different song with the same title may be used.

5) Songs WILL BE from 1955-1969 only, of course!!  Re 1955: a record
   may have entered the charts in 1954 as long as it was still on the
   charts in 1955.  Re 1969: a record entering the charts in 1969 may
   still be on the charts in 1970.

6) Songs are singles that hit the Top 100 on the American Pop Charts.
   Although most songs will have made the top twenty-five or so,
   expect a couple of songs in the quiz that will challenge the
   experts out there.

7) There are 25 songs to identify; each song is worth 20 points.
   Each Title is worth 10 points; each Artist is worth 10 points.
   A perfect score is 500 points.

   You should try to get as close as possible to the way it appears
   on the label; partial credit will be given for imperfect answers.

8) Append your answers to the lines that begin "#dd)", where "dd" are
   two digits.  You may delete the original lyrics or not; I will look
   for lines beginning with those 4 characters (possibly preceded by
   ">" and/or " ").
