Name the song the line is from Part II


That would be It Hurts To Be In Love. I think Gene Pitney had a hit with it, and I liked it. Good one, Tony!


How 'bout:

I never knew me a better time, and I guess I never will

Good one - in Vegas last year we watched Elton Rock his Croc

********* NEW ***********

Sixties - for a change

You know I'm jealous of you and yet you seem to try
To go out of your way to be unkind


Pretty sure that's Don't Break The Heart That Loves You, by Connie Francis.


How about almost 60s? Like, say, 1959:

Someday, I don't know how
I hope she'll hear my plea


What we have here is “Dream Lover” by Bobby Darin. Good one, Jim. Now what shall I do?

I know, another great tune from the fifties:

But if you like to bop and stroll,
come on down and listen



I do believe that's Rock And Roll Is Here To Stay, by Danny and The Juniors. Classic!


I wonder if four words is enough for this 50s standard:

our goose is cooked

Ya got me. If it had been YOUR goose is cooked, I would have given you Sweet Georgie Fame by Tony Bennett.
My cousin used to date Georgie Fame - just before he married the 9th Marchioness of Londonderry. - A little Brit history for ya

OK, buddy, but I'll bet you guys know this song, and it's...HINT TIME!


This 1957 song was sung by an American brother duo. It was a hit in both the US (#1) and the UK (#2).

More lines:

The movie wasn’t so hot
It didn’t have much of a plot
We fell asleep
Our goose is cooked
Our reputation is shot




See y'all in the morning.

I like your four-word clue, Jim. It would have been enough if I had been on at the time.
Of course, it’s “Wake Up, Little Susie” by the Everly Brothers. But I also remember hearing it by Simon and Garfunkel somewhere along the way. Nice song, Pal.

I’ll leave another four-word clue:

What's wrong with that?

According to Sir Paul and Wings, there's nothing wrong with that, if 'that' happens to be filling the world with Silly Love Songs. Very nice!


OK, one more 1957 song -- this one was #1 in both the US and UK:

Only you can take my heart
Only you can tear it apart



The song has a one word title. Here are a few more lines :

Only you can take my heart
Only you can tear it apart
When you hold me in your loving arms
I can feel you giving all your charms
Hold me, darling, hold me tight
Squeeze me, baby, with all your might
Ooooh, please, stay by me, _____
