Hi Brat! :)
I'm sorry, but that is incorrect. Oh, and just to let you know...I wouldn't include the title within the lyrics because that would be too obvious. ;)

16. "Behind the smile I'm wearing are the tears of a clown"
Tears of a Clown - Smokey Robinson
Incorrect maybe, but there is a Smokey song in here...
#8. 'Being With You' - Smokey Robinson (not his best...Karen & I have ascertained what that is...but not bad...)
#18. 'I Saw The Light' - Todd Rundgren (great song...)
...and I'm going to have one of my legendary swipes at...
#12. 'You'll Never Find Another Love Like Mine' - Lou Rawls...I keep running the song through my head, but these lyrics don't quite seem to fit - worth a guess, tho'...wonderful song...

Nice work, Paul! :)
And just to let you know, the lyric I chose for "You'll Never Find Another Love Like Mine" comes right after 'the rhythm, the rhyme' part. ;)

Hey!
Okay, you got the right artist but wrong song. I believe the song in question was on the same album as the one you mentioned... :)

from the hint, I'd say #11 is the (Young) Rascals
from the lyric, I'd guess "A Beautiful Morining"

Hi Karen...
...since you bumped us all very nicely, I'll attempt the clear-up...!
#19. judging by the clues is The Rolling Stones, and the only #1 they had in '69 both here and in America was 'Honky Tonk Women'...
...here comes the 'but' - after repeated plays, I can't find these lyrics anywhere...!! I'll go for it anyway...
The title for #20. is 'It's My Turn' (which I had to dig out for confirmation...not heard it in years...)
Once again, another good 'un, Karen...

Sometimes it doesn't to pay to go from memory. Perhaps I misheard these lyrics somewhere along the line. At any rate, you nailed the song, Paul. Pretty good if you can pull this from my sloppiness.... ;)
