Beach boys - Surfin' USA
The Four Seasons - Dawn?
Four Tops - Sugar Pie Honey Bunch
Temptations - My Girl
Jay and the Americans - something about a roller coaster?
Frankie Avalon - Wanderer?
Fabian - ?
Bobby Rydell - something about a roller coaster?
Mitch Ryder and the Detroit Wheels - Gennie
The Supremes - Stop in the Name of Love
Jackie Wilson - Mustang Sally?
Jackie DeShannon - something about a roller coaster?
The Lovin’ Spoonful - something about cereal?
Three Dog Night - oh gawd I can't believe I can't remember their songs...I'll be hitting my head on the keyboard when you tell me

Obviously I'm remembering some, but not all. HELP? And don't try and tell me someeeeeebody didn't do a song about a roller coaster in a park!

Giggle, giggle ... snort, snort...

Here ya go!

Last night I took a walk after dark
A swingin' place called Palisades Park
To have some fun and see what I could see
That's where the girls are

I took a ride on a shoot-the-chute
That girl I sat beside was awful cute
And after while she was holdin' hands with me

My heart was flyin' up like a rocket ship
Down like a roller coaster
Back like a loop-the-loop
And around like a merry-go-round

We ate and ate at a hot dog stand
We danced around to a rockin' band
And when I could, I gave that girl a hug
In the tunnel of love

You'll never know how great a kiss can feel
When you stop at the top of a Ferris wheel
When I fell in love down at Palisades Park

Instrumental with the sound of a roller coaster and the screams of its riders

We ate and ate at a hot dog stand
We danced around to a rockin' band
And when I could, I gave that girl a hug
In the tunnel of love

You'll never know how great a kiss can feel
When you stop at the top of a Ferris wheel
When I fell in love down at Palisades Park

Down at Palisades Park

FADE
You know it's Palisades Park
Down at Palisades Park

CC! You've got the lyrics on some album sleeve or just etched in memory? I am impressed?

Good Vibrations (of course)
Venus
Heard it Through the Grapevine
Baby, Baby (whatever by the Supremes)

Heck! Hard to think when I have the Everly Bros on online radio: "Bye Bye Love"...'twas "Bus Stop" before it.

You ladies remember Cat Stevens? Anyone found him delish years ago? Well, he has picked up the guitar again. Sounds just like he did.

How about Johnny Rivers..."Oh, baby come on, let me show you where the action is". Remember Paul Revere and the Raiders?
