Most metals are subject to oxidation, but some, like aluminum acquires sheltering layer of oxde which prevents further oxidation. I guess you mean the only metal that do not form an oxide with the oxygen in air. Again, I would exoect that to be more than one, but I may be wrong on that point.

"peak R&B" = Peak position on the weekly Billboard Rhythm & Blues chart. (Billboard didn't publish an R&B chart between 11/30/63 and 1/23/65, so recordings in that interval show peak R&B of {n/c} ("no chart").) "xxx",...,"yyy" = prior GOLQ(s) in which the song appeared, if any. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I was eight years old when I fell in love It seems like yesterday Down the old mill road in a pretty house lived Some folks not far from me #01) Ames Brothers, The: "Pussy Cat" (1958/59) [17] {-} <187> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z6mXi7hwH-4 She's been a little wallflower on the shelf Standing by herself Now she got the nerve to take the chance #02) Bland, Billy: "Let The Little Girl Dance" (1960) [7] {11} <16><226> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bSE2OFZp8DM Billy died 3/22/17 at 84. Flowers have blooms The ocean has waves The sky has clouds People have babes #03) Campbell, Glen: "I Wanna Live" (1968) [36] {-} <-> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pQnSh6fwyag ("I Wanna Live") http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dzQQoUx1oOU ("Adiós", recorded 2013) Glen's long career wound down following his Alzheimer's diagnosis in 2010. His "Goodbye Tour" ended in late 2012; he then recorded his final album, "Adiós," during the winter of 2012/13. The album was finally issued in spring 2017, shortly before his death on 8/8/17 at 81. The second link is the title song from that final album - his voice was still marvelous. I didn't mean to start it Ooh, I wish it was all just a dream #04) The Drew-Vels: "Tell Him" (1964) [90] {n/c} <-> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6RtHvljyDZ4 (Drew-Vels, 1964) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KoF663ZHbM0 (Patti Drew, 1967) The group comprised the 3 Drew sisters (lead singer Patti, Lorraine, & Erma) plus bass Carlton Black (who originally wrote the song as "Tell Her" for his prior group, The Duvals). By 1967, Patti was a solo act, and she cut a new version, also featuring Carlton, at a slower tempo and with a brass section in lieu of her sisters. Either Drew-Vels or Patti Drew got full credit. Like a bird on the wing When he knows it's early spring #05) Fireflies, The: "You Were Mine" (1959) [21] {-} <7><100><275> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-jjtosoBpZU Lead singer Ritchie Adams died 3/6/17 at 78.

He left the group in 1968; his successor, Colin Young, is on their other big hit, "Build Me Up Buttercup." First, I'd put heaven by your side Pretty flowers would grow wherever you walked, honey And over your head would be the bluest sky #07) Gaye, Marvin, & Tammi Terrell: "If I Could Build My Whole World Around You" (1967/68) [10] {2} <144> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WIidCOTgrT8 Don't bother cryin' Don't bother crawlin' It's all over now No use in stallin' #08) Grass Roots, The: "Where Were You When I Needed You" (1966) [28] {-} <50><128> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A8JlI2W-Bl4 (1966 single) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mS5uRuXS0k0 (1967 LP remake, new lineup) The band was a creation of songwriters P. F. Sloan & Steve Barri, for producer Lou Adler's Dunhill Records. The first band they assembled, who recorded this single, featured Willie Fulton on lead vocals. After a rift with Sloan/Barri/Adler, the entire group was dismissed, and a different lineup assumed the Grass Roots moniker. This latter group, featuring lead vocalist/bassist Rob Grill, recorded the string of hits from '67 into the early '70s. The Grill-led group re-did this song for the 1967 LP "Let's Live for Today." I give my heart to you And as the years go by It will be true I'll always hold you near Sure as the stars above #09) Hamilton, George, IV: "Now And For Always" (1958) [25] {-} <-> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=suLA2OXvRhY You got to put on the step-up hydraulic double dynamo reversible booster You got to activate the decompression activator And you got to put on the anti-magnetic degaussing system #10) Jimenez, Jose: "The Astronaut (Parts 1 & 2)" (1961) [19] {-} <87> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I1-vfFhKeJ8 ("The Astronaut") http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rGAm_7yRSCI (interview re: Jose's creation) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OQq9PSTcXvQ (interview re: astronaut bit) Bill Dana, who created the character in 1959 for a sketch on the Steve Allen Show, died 6/15/17 at 92. Co-writer credit went to Don Hinckley, who interviews Jose. In the second link, Dana describes that first sketch, and what inspired Jose's creation. The third link deals in particular with the astronaut routine. You don't drive a big fine car You don't look like a movie star And on your money we won't get far #11) Johnson, Marv: "You Got What It Takes" (1959/60) [10] {2} <33><262> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vqVmzXEZ4e4 Please let me have a chance with you For I like to do the monkey too And let's get together #12) Lance, Major: "Hey Little Girl" (1963) [13] {12} <64><247> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y2evF5IRc3I And now it's over, I'm awake at last Old heartaches and memories from the past It was just another dream about my lost love #13) Orbison, Roy: "Leah" (1962) [25] {-} <63><223> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z5n7wBaqw1U A two-sided hit with "Workin' for the Man."

Each night seems like the Fourth of July When stars spangle the sky Dreams can come true If you believe they do #16) Ruby and The Romantics: "When You're Young And In Love" (1964) [48] {n/c} <64> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oWQS_GKCg5M Written by Van McCoy, who was active as a writer/producer/performer from the '50s until his untimely death in 1979. He's mostly remembered today for his 1975 disco hit, "The Hustle." You were with a guy named Joe Then all at once you said you had to go I never even caught your name #17) Shannon, Del: "Hey! Little Girl" (1961/62) [38] {-} <52><193> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yzD-r9orGf4 Same title (ignoring punctuation) as song #12. GOLQ #64 (1994) featured a similar "Hey Little Girl" mini-theme, using the Major Lance song above, plus those by Dee Clark and by The Techniques. (Del's had been used earlier, and GOLQ rules at that time did not allow song re-use.) He'll never love you The way that I love you 'Cause if he did, no no He wouldn't make you cry #18) Steam: "Na Na Hey Hey Kiss Him Goodbye" (1969/70) [1] {20} <59><134><312> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fs3ZZkKnvng ("Na Na Hey Hey ...") http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6qH5ciK7duI ("It's The Magic In You Girl") Co-writer and lead singer Gary DeCarlo died 6/28/17 at 75. DeCarlo, Paul Leka, and Dale Frashuer wrote an early version called just "Kiss Him Goodbye" in the early '60s when they were in a group together. In 1968, DeCarlo recorded several Leka-produced songs for Mercury; the following year, in need of B-sides, they resurrected this song, bringing in old band-mate Frashuer to help record it. Leka played keyboards, while the drums were spliced together from drum tracks from DeCarlo's 1968 recordings. They realized that the song needed a chorus to flesh it out. Leka recalled: "I started writing while I was sitting at the piano going 'na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na' ... everything was 'na na' when you didn't have a lyric. Gary added 'hey hey'." After creating the name "Steam" for the single, an entirely different group was assembled for publicity pictures and touring. The trio that recorded it never performed it live. The intended A-side was "It's The Magic In You Girl" (second link above). All you fellas, gather 'round me And let me give you some good advice What I'm gonna, gonna ask you now You better think about it twice #19) Taylor, Johnnie: "Who's Making Love" (1968/69) [5] {1} <93><220> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oV0U7U5ZsMs Don't want your jewelry Or money too And nothin' else, nothin' else you said you would do #20) Thomas, Carla: "I'll Bring It Home To You" (1962) [41] {9} <-> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2iHk0vsPqb4 Answer song to Sam Cooke's "Bring It On Home To Me."
