| The GOLQ Institute <list@golq.org>: Aug 11 07:32AM -0500 RESULTS and ANSWER KEY for Golden Oldies Lyrics Quiz #342 (GOLQ342) Congratulations to our THREE co-winners, each with perfect scores: The Coasters, Mike Weaver, and Will McCorry. Kudos also to the eight other teams that identified all 25 songs in the main part of the quiz. All entrants recognized that every song was written all, or in part (with Gerry Goffin), by Carole King, except #23, which was written by Neil Sedaka ABOUT Carole King. The high scoring was evidence that knowing this theme went a long way to recognizing even the stumpers. Ironically, the song in the quiz that proved to be the biggest stumper was #T2, which was sung by Carole herself! A YouTube link is provided at #T1. As always, thanks to everyone who entered! Mike Weaver has already posted GOLQ343. -- Tom and Rick _____________________________________________________________________________ After each score below are two characters representing the two tie-breakers: + indicates a tie-breaker answered correctly. - indicates partial credit. x indicates a totally incorrect guess. . indicates no guess.
