We began our show today with one of, if not the shortest, songs ever recorded. And it was by the DC5. I like it like that. One minute and 37 seconds. But sheer fun. And now, let's keep it going with music from this side of the Atlantic swimming pool. And the beach boys dance, dance, dance, followed by the gentries and keep on dancing.

This quarter hour of nostalgia is brought to you by Lifestyles 55 and our show, The Quest for Silver. Here is Petula Clark with one of her famous passionate songs about my love. Well, now you must realize it is the title of the song and not something personal that I am sharing with the world. You see, it would not be appropriate for me to do that, so I just wanted to clarify with you before Petula sings that it's her song and not me saying anything untoward. So rest assured that I am not doing anything improper or misleading, and you can be confident that I would never do that. My love is warmer than the warmest sunshine, softer than a sky. My love is deeper than the deepest ocean, wider than the sky. My love is brighter than the brightest star that shines every night above. And there is nothing in this world that can ever change my love. Something happened to my heart the day that I met you. Something that I never felt before. You are always on my mind no matter what I do. And every day it seems I want you more. My love is deeper than the deepest ocean, wider than the sky. There is nothing in this world that can ever change my love. You'd never become a bed. Now the only thing to show how wrong we all can be. My love is warmer than the warmest sunshines, longer than the sky. My love is deeper than the deepest ocean, wider than the sky. My love is wider than the brightest star that shines every night above. My love is warmer than the warmest sun shines wider than the sky. My love is deeper than the deepest ocean, wider than the sky. My brother is brighter than the brightest star that shines every night above. And there is nothing in this world that can ever change my love. The Bachelors were a popular music group, originating from Dublin, but primarily based in the UK. They had several international hits during the nineteen sixties, including eight top ten singles in the UK. This particular version of Marie, The Dawn Is Breaking, was written by Irving Berlin in nineteen twenty-nine, and the Bachelors took it to the cusp of the dartboard in nineteen sixty-five. Your heart is well as you as you are focusing this hour on songs from the middle of the best decade in music, specifically 1965. I recall vividly the summer of that year when the movie title of One Word was played, and I watched it over and over again in the Lincoln Theater in St. Kitts. It was a movie that superseded the budget from the Beatles' first movie, which was black and white, and so they were filmed in living color, and well, John Lennon wrote one of, if not the best, song ever, which was the title song for the movie. I need somebody. And the ensuing week we did not go to number one. And then number two. Of course I had decided to do a version of it. We put it together in the studio, starting off with a musical swing low sweet chariot, and then we fell into that particular song with somewhat of a marching rhythm. The band was among one of the most popular groups in the U.S. for a short period in the mid-sixties, and their music and image influenced many of the contemporary rock acts for their era. Beginning in 1965 with their debut single, Do You Believe in Magic, the band had several consecutive singles reached out of the top ten of the U.S. charts in the 18 months that followed, including the number two hitream and Did You Ever Have to Make Up Your Mind, and the third topic, Summer in the City, John Sebastian and Zal Young Officer met on February 954 at the apartment of Kath Elliot, a mutual friend and fellow musician. That night, Elliot held a party to watch the English rock band of the Beatles make their American television debut on the Edman Show. The three musicians were all active in the folk music scene in Greenwich Village, a neighborhood in New York City, and Elliot encouraged Sebastian and Yanowski to play together. Like many folk musicians, the group was influenced by the Beatles' performance. Sebastian later reflected it affected us heavily, and by us meaning our specific generation. If the music is proof and make you feel happy like an old time movie, I'll tell you about the magic and the free dog, don't you know about the road and the magic? Don't bother to choose the judge and the music. Over the middle, just go let's stand up, let's fly. I'll be joking. What do your songs mean? For having created a new friend with the great American song tradition. It is positively forthstreet on L fifty-five DR and the Q for S with me, Mr. T. You got it like I knew. To say you are my friend. When I was down, you just to think pretty You got it like I knew. To say you got a helping hand to lint You just want to be on the side that's winning You say I let you down, you know it's not like fair If you're so hurt, why then don't you show it? You say you've lost your faith, but that's not where it's at You have no faith to lose, and you know I know the reason that you talk behind my back I used to be among the crowd yawing with Do you take me for such a fool? You think I'd make contact with one who tries to hide what they don't know to begin with You see me on the street, you always act surprised You say how are you? Good luck, but you don't mean it when you know as well as me You'd rather see me paralyze Why don't you just come at once and scream it? No, I do not feel that good when I see the heart bricks you embrace If I was a master thief, perhaps I'd rather home And now I know you're dissatisfied with your position and your place Don't you understand it's not my problem I wish that for just one time you could stand inside my shoes And just for that one moment I could be you Yes I wish that for just one time You could stand inside my shoes You know what I dread it is to see you know Desi and Billy were a phenomenal hit for such young boys in their early teen years. When they came onto the music scene, of course they were known for being the children of big stars. They had a few decent songs that made it into the character legitimately after 1965 releasing records for five years thereafter. This is one of their handful of hits not the loving kind. So you better get it off your mind Give your money, I don't care, take you with me everywhere I'll tell you baby I'm not the loving collection, baby, I'm not the love and come. Get somebody else and you'll define. So you better move on down the line. I told you so I never ride. Love the train, I'll never ride, I'll tell you better than I'm not the loving car. Eddie Arnold was a Nashville sound country pop music innovator of the late 1950s, and he scored 147 songs on the Billboard Country Music Chart. Second only to George. He was one of the original cruisers to cross over the country and yet is known to run the music industry and not around the country. He left the theater quickly. And by the time he got home, 15 minutes later had composed Make the World Go Away. We are L55DR in the Q for S with me, Mr. T. Make the Andy shoulder. Say the things you used to say and make the world go away. Do you remember when you loved me? Before the world took me astray. If you do, then forgive me and make the world go away. Make the world go away, and get on my shoulders Say the things you used to say and make the world voice. I'm sorry if I hurt you. I'll make it up day by day. Just say you love me like you used and make the world go away. Make the one go away and get off my shoulders Say the things you used to say and make the world go away. Say the things you used to say and make the world go away. Sonny and Cher had several songs that made it big. And this was a top ten song that circled the center, but of course not quite. I've been in a town for eighteen years. You're the only boy I've had. I can't dance. I bought at the second hand store. The ways old time laughs at me. Just I can't take it no more. I can't dance. I've got a beer latest on the day. I love you. When I get to the city, my tears will all be dried. My eyes will look so pretty. No one don't I know I cried, yes, I'm on the way. Maybe I've been back some day. The Fortunes are an English harmony beat group formed in Birmingham. The Fortunes first came to prominence and international acclaim in 1965 when You Got Your Troubles broke into the US, Canadian, and UK top ten. Afterwards, they had a succession of hits, including Here Comes Again and Here Comes That Rainy Day feeling. You got your troubles, I've got mine. You got your troubles, I've got mine. All of my dreams have blown away. And so forgive me so you can see that I ain't got no pity for you. I help another place to love the time. You got your trouble, I've got my time. You got your trouble, I've got my time. You got your trouble. I've got my Peter and Gordon were a British pop duo composed of Peter Asher, born in 1944, and Gordon Waller, born one year later than Peter, and died in 2009, who achieved international fame in 1964 with their first single, the million-selling single world without love. The duo had several subsequent hits in America and the British invasion era, including Lady Goodiver, With a Woman, True Love Waves, Nobody I Know, and This One. I go to Pieces. Another love that will be true They don't listen, they don't see what you get They reach for She's my dead The pieces and the water The pieces and I remember what she said when she said goodbye, baby. We'll meet again soon, baby. But until we do all my best to you, I'm so lonely. I go to places we used to go. But I know she'll never show. She hurt me so much inside. Now I hope she's sad as fire. Go to pieces and I wanna hide. Go to pieces and I almost died every time. My baby passes by. Robert Goulet was born in the US, but when his father died, he was only 13. And he and his mother moved to Alberta. So he became a Canadian and became a radio announcer and acting in the singing were not far away. Goulet had his year that he was in 1965. That was a single My Love, forgive me, read significantly on the billboard hot 100 chart. In love with me. Remember when we part, you'll have my heart. How to tell you I'm not free. How can I bear to see your heart break? To see your heart break over me. Yo so miro me, Radivade, for we're apart, you'll still be in my heart. I love you so I love you so I love you so the four seasons have made several appearances on our show, which is actually quite surprising considering how many of their songs were charged after. This is one of my personal favorites from 1965. Let's hang on, do what we got. Don't let no turn what we got, I don't want a lot of love between us. Hang on, hang on, hang on, do what we got. You say you're gonna go call the quits. Gonna chuck it all and break our love. I wish you never said Breaking up. No love, we'll both be breaking. That little chew of diamond on your hands being a water, baby. But you know it's meant for the love. It just can't leave behind. Just baby there. Don't you die there? Do what we got. Don't let go we got. I done, I done, I done, do what we got. There isn't anything I wouldn't do. I begin it right to getting no idea if you catch it up. Give me a second turn it up. Don't pull up my loud burn. I be crying, dying out. Shut me up. I need more open up. I need to open up. But I don't give what we got. Girl, what we got? Oh, hang on, hang on, hang on, do what we got. Our show is The Quest for Silver on Lifestyles Fifty Five and the Kings. Have the final segment of our show with all day and all of the night.
