Subject: Crazy Don's 1962 "A to Z" lyrics quiz! (complete!)
QUIZ OVER--STAY TUNED FOR THE 1964 "A TO Z" QUIZ HERE BEFORE YOU KNOW IT!
It's time for the 1962 version of the "A to Z" lyrics quiz. All of these songs came out in 1962. Identify each by title and artist. There are 20 of these, omitting E, F, K, Q, X, and Z. Limit four for now.
And remember, I'm looking for the artist who had the hit with it in 1962.
Jonman 1. And a scimitar by his side
Ahab the Arab--Ray Stevens
mandamoo 2. Remember when you held me tight
Breaking Up Is Hard to Do--Neil Sedaka
FBVP 3. You'll never know that I still love you so
Crying in the Rain--The Everly Brothers
BF 4. And a paradise we will share

(Sorry, Rice Cube!)
IG 5. A rabbit's foot on a string
Good Luck Charm--Elvis Presley
mandamoo 6. When he holds my hand I'm so proud
He's a Rebel--"The Crystals"
(On the record label it says The Crystals, but the song was actually done by Darlene Love & the Blossoms. Phil Spector liked the song so much he wanted his own version of it, and wanted the Crystals to record it, but they were not available, so he used Darlene Love & the Blossoms, and released it as by The Crystals.)
sl 7. They say that time heals a broken heart
I Can't Stop Loving You--Ray Charles
hb 8. I'm in heaven, I get carried away
Johnny Angel--Shelley Fabares
Yes, the same person that played Banasy's, er, Donna Reed's daughter on "The Banasy, er, Donna Reed Show" and Craig T. Nelson's wife on "Coach."
Zella 9. It's easier to learn than your ABC's
The Loco-Motion--Little Eva

Palisades Park--Freddy Cannon
(BTW, the song was written by the subject of the movie "Confessions of a Dangerous Mind," Chuck Barris!)
