"Dear Sir or Madam, did you read my book? It took me years to write, will you take a look?" The inspiration for this quiz. What Beatles' classic is it?

Paperback Writer. "Paperback Writer" went to #1 in both the UK and USA. It can be found on Past Masters, Volume II.

"But how do you thank someone Who has taken you from crayons to perfume." One of my favorite lyrics from "To Sir With Love." Who sang this 1967 classic?

Lulu. The song was written for the movie and sung by Lulu, who also had a role in the movie. The film features Sidney Poitier as the tough teacher, the "Sir," in the movie.

In 2003, Belle & Sebastian released this "Dear" album. The album features "I'm a Cuckoo," which went to #14 in the UK.

Dear Catastrophe Waitress. Belle & Sebastian hail from Scotland and are sometimes affectionately known as "twee pop." They have a full sound with Beach Boy like harmonies and a fun groove of their own. In 2005 they released all their EPs on one album entitled, "Push Barman To Open Old Wounds."

"Hello, I love you, won't you tell me your name?" Direct and to the point! Who sang this classic from 1968?

The Doors. "Hello, I Love You" is found on the 1968 release of "Waiting For The Sun." The song went to #1 in the UK. The song was recorded a few years earlier in demo form, but was not included on an album until the release of their third studio album.

"Hello It's Me" is AM radio from the 70s at its best. Todd Rundgren performs this classic ballad and it can be found on his 1972 release that was ranked in 2003 by "Rolling Stone" as #173 of the "500 Greatest Albums Of All Time." Can you name the album.

Something/Anything?. "Something/Anything?" also includes the radio-friendly "I Saw The Light." It's considered by many to be his best and most quirky album. Todd is a founding member of The Nazz and wrote the garage-classic, "Open My Eyes."

"Hello operator can you give me number nine? can i see you later? will you give me back my dime?" "Hello Operator" is found on the 2000 release of "De Stijl." Name the band.

The White Stripes. Meg and Jack White formed The White Stripes in Detroit in 1997. "Fell In Love With Girl" was in heavy video rotation in 2001 and "Get Behind Me Satan" is a great release from 2005.

And this one from the Beatles goes something like this: "You say yes, I say no You say stop and I say go, go, go." Do you remember the title?

Hello Goodbye. "Hello Goodbye" can be found on the "Magical Mystery Tour" LP. The single was backed with "I Am The Walrus" and went to #1 in both the US and UK.

"Dear God, hope you get the letter and... I pray you can make it better down here I don't mean a big reduction in the price of beer." It's safe to say that you won't hear "Dear God" anytime soon at your local place of worship. Who penned the tune?

XTC. "Dear God" is found on the 1986 "Skylarking," which was produced, in part, by Todd Rundgren. In 1982, lead singer Andy Partridge collapsed on stage and he announced that XTC would never play live again.

"Dear Prudence won't you come out to play Dear Prudence greet the brand new day." One of my favorite Beatle tunes. On what album will you find the song?

The Beatles (White Album). The song was written by John and is about Mia Farrow's sister, Prudence. The song was written during their trip to India.

The first tracks from their first two albums are "ELO Kiddies" and "Hello There." And just for good measure, their third album contains these lyrics: "Hello How are you? How'd you sleep last night? Did you dream of me all night?" Can you name the band?

Cheap Trick. "Cheap Trick," "In Color" and "Heaven Tonight" are the three albums in question. Cheap Trick officially formed in 1975, but a few of the members performed in bands in the late-60s. Their 1979 "At Budokan" preserved the playfulness and energy experienced in their live sets.
