Hi Karen :)

#11  You Send Me - Sam Cooke

#21: Let's Get It On by Marvin Gaye

#15: Rock Me Amadeus by Falco

#21: Let's Get It On by Marvin Gaye

#15: Rock Me Amadeus by Falco

I believe Rhonda (gemini61) beat you to #21, and I know #15 is not Rock Me Amadeus, 'cause that one's been answered already.

But I think I got another one:

#12: "I Could Fall In Love" by Selena. :\'(

Hi Karen!

21. Let's Get It On--Marvin Gaye


Hi Rhonda!

That's the one!  ;)

Hi Karen :)

#11  You Send Me - Sam Cooke


Hello there, Janine!  :)

You got that one!

#21: Let's Get It On by Marvin Gaye

#15: Rock Me Amadeus by Falco


Hi Charlie D!

#21 is correct, but I'm afraid that gemini61 has already answered that one.

And "Rock Me Amadeus" is on the quiz, but as #16...not  #15.  I'll allow it, as I know those numbers are very close together.  ;)

I believe Rhonda (gemini61) beat you to #21, and I know #15 is not Rock Me Amadeus, 'cause that one's been answered already.

Jeff, I'd really appreciate it if you'd leave these things for me, the quizmaker, to take care of.  ???

#12: "I Could Fall In Love" by Selena. :\'(

That is correct.

25. Step By Step - Eddie Rabbit

Jeff, I'd really appreciate it if you'd leave these things for me, the quizmaker, to take care of.  ???

#19 is actually "You're The First, The Last, My Everything"...but you're close enough that I'll let you have that one.  #30 is correct.

So close!!!!! Thanks for the credit, CF!!!

You know your quizzes are the bomb!!!!

Hi, CF!
I've got one.
The answer of #27 must be "Donna" by Ritchie Valens.

By the way, I have a pretty rare? EP of the original version of "Rock And Roll Heaven" by Climax.
When I found it at a used record store in San Jose, I thought it should be truly attractive and
keep the romantic feeling of "Precious And Few".
But after hearing it, I understood why the record was not sold well..... :\'(

#26 - "Jean", lyrics by Rod McKuen, performed by Oliver


That one had been driving me mad!  I didn't know that Oliver had died. :-\\

I didn't know that Oliver had died. :-\\


Sadly yes, Janine...cancer got him about four years ago...

So close!!!!! Thanks for the credit, CF!!!

Hi there, tuontuin!  :)

That's interesting about the version of "Rock And Roll Heaven" that you have by Climax.  The only version of that song that I'm familiar with is by The Righteous Brothers.

And you are absolutely right about "Donna".  :)

Man, this is a sad quiz!  :\'(
#6 is Stay the Night-Ben Orr.
