Hi Banasy
Boy, you created a real problem for me here. It's all good news though, for you.
Firstly, numbers 1, 2, 7 & 15 were spot on as I had them.
# 10 I had as Little Honda but by the Hondells - however it's hard to argue against the Beach Boys having done it, and you did stay within the 60's - so - a winner !
#4 : "It's Not For Me To Say" by Johnny Mathis is not the song I was looking for, but once again it can't be argued with.
That'll teach me to pick more unique lyrics in future !
So I give you credit for that one but will also leave it open to see if anyone gets the one I was thinking of. Who knows, there may be more !

# 3 - correct - give yourself extra credit - because I was thinking of Bobbie Gentry - and I could be confused - why should now be any different - but I think she was the 70's
# 4 - not the one I was looking for, but correct nonetheless - I shall give you an honourable mention !
# 8 - correct (with no other comment (except that one))
