Hi Billy! I'm afraid you only got 1 out of 3. #'s 12 and 16 are incorrect. :-/
Subject: Re: Name The Year 2
Can the same year be correct for 2 items?
I associate 1966 with both "I Am A Rock" by Simon & Garfunkel
(#16) AND "Working My Way Back to You" #14) (I assume you're thinking of the Four Seasons version.)
If I had to choose, I'd go with #14. "Secret Agent Man", I'm feeling pretty sure, was 1966.
I'll also say 1973 for #18.
Subject: Re: Name The Year 2
is #20 1980 then?

Hi Sioux_Denim! :)
I can see how you would think "Working My Way Back To You" was from 1966. In actuality, I am referring to the medley "Working My Way Back To You/Forgive Me, Girl" that was performed by The Spinners...and so that one still remains open. I will still give you 1966 for knowing the Simon & Garfunkel song. :)
Oh, and #18 is correct! :D

Whoops! I mean No. 12 is 1992. Looks like Billy already answered no. 11 correctly 1988 and it was posted to No. 12 in error.
