Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. The Dave Clark Five was the first group other than the Beatles to make a splash in the U.S. Which song was NOT one of theirs?

Answer: Sister Golden Hair

America did 'Golden Hair'. The DC Five came, did well for a while - then sort of disappeared.
2. Gerry and the Pacemakers also had several hits. Which song was NOT one of theirs?

Answer: Sweet Blindness

'Blindness' was the Fifth Dimension. Gerry and the P had a pleasant sound
3. Which song was NOT a hit by Peter and Gordon?

Answer: Summer Song

Chad and Jeremy, I believe
4. Which song was NOT a hit by Herman's Hermits?

Answer: A Little Bit Me, A Little Bit You

The Monkees did 'Little Bit'.
5. It may be stretching it a bit to call Petula Clark part of the 'invasion', but .... which song was NOT hers?

Answer: Do You Want to Know a Secret?

Helen Reddy had a hit with that - it may have been her first. From 'Jesus Christ Superstar'. Yvonne Elliman also did it.
6. Who recorded 'You're My World'?

Answer: Cilla Black

Cilla did 'World' - her biggest hit. Hopkin did 'Those were the Days' and 'Goodbye'. Honey did 'Have I The Right?' Dusty had a slew of hits
7. Who recorded 'I'm Telling You Now'?

Answer: Freddie and the Dreamers

Lunatic Freddie. Good song, though. Fontana did 'Game of Love'. Kramer did 'Bad to Me' (and others). Tommy James doesn't really fit in this group.
8. Who recorded 'Red Rubber Ball'?

Answer: Cyrkle

Cyrkle were supposed to be big - but it never happened. Same for Rollers. Brummels had 'Laugh, Laugh' and 'Just a Little'.
9. There were some American songs then, too. Which song is NOT by Jay and the Americans?

Answer: Susan

Good staying power. Susan was by the Buckinghams - trying to be British (as in Buckingham Palace)
10. Which was NOT a hit by the Four Seasons?

Answer: Where's the Playground, Susie?

Glen Campbell - no kidding.. Forgettable
