Subject: first names quiz (A/B) All Bye Bye now!
All the following have first names in the title, beginning with an A or a B....
FBVP1. It was the third of June, another sleepy, dusty Delta day
PHIL2. You say you feel so empty
INDY3. You see I thought that I might keep you for my own
ANDY4. You are my whole, babe, my heart and my soul, babe
FBVP5. I went to a dance, looking for romance
GMBO6. I started fooling around with the vertical hold
CDON7. Bringing gifts from far away
FBVP8. If I can't have the one I want I'll do without the best
ANDY9. I'm not going to get too sentimental
FBVP10. Forgetting all the words she said
FBVP11. Oh but they're weird and they're wonderful
INDY12. You give me the joy this heart of mine has always been longing for.
PHIL/MNIK13. Let me give my life to you
FBVP14. We've both found what we've been looking for
FBVP15. But if anything should happen we'll be sure to give a ring
GMBO16. And who could you call your friends down in Soho?
MNIK17. Windshield wipers slappin' time
BOBO18. That's what happens when the gettin' gets good
MNIK19. Didn't you just love the things that they stood for?
MNIK20. So take my strong advice, just remember to always think twice

Now there is only the really hard one left.... ;)
Subject: Re: first names quiz (A and B) (clues!)
That last one is hard. Where's Andrew when you need him?
Barbara Ann was apparently originally by The Regents. Brian explains that it was only when Dean came into the studio to watch the recording of Party! that he suggested they sing Barbara Ann, with Dean on falsetto lead.
Anyways...
