Uschanov" Welcome to the 158th edition of the Golden Oldies Lyrics Quiz series, by the time of which all possible new permutations of this opening greeting have regrettably been used up! There are no intentional themes in this quiz, except the fairly useless one that most of the songs are personal favourites of the quiz master. This quiz may be a bit tougher than the few previous rather easy ones, because I designed it so, but I hope that won't deter you from entering. If you do not have the official GOLQ Rules (a posted copy of the rules should follow a posted copy of this quiz on most sites), you may use your web browser to read them at: http://world.com/~marc/golq/ If you have trouble getting the rules, contact me for assistance. E-mail (DO NOT POST) your answers to me at ; make sure to e-mail early, as there are often delays. I will acknowledge receipt of entries via e-mail.
