Contuinuous Quiz - Music

[davidsaunders]

I assumed that it was a woman as well but, with that clue: Alphaville?

[Northernpopquizzer]

Well done David, top answer, Alphaville is correct. Ask us another.

[davidsaunders]

Thank you.

"Mama" was a UK number 5 for Dave Berry in 1966. Who wrote it and had the hit in the USA?

[Northernpopquizzer]

I have it on a Pye International single, B J Thomas.

[davidsaunders]

Correct. I only found this out when I heard it on "They Sang It First" on "Sounds Of The 60s"

[Northernpopquizzer]

Ah yes 'Sounds Of The 60s' a great source of information and tracks for me for many years. Ok we'll stick with the original versions then ... Who recorded the original version of the song 'Mickey' a UK hit for Toni Basil in 1982 ? And the second part, under what different title ?

[RobJones]

Good question that.

I think it was a Chinn/Chapman song and I reckon it was orginally called 'Kitty' and performed by Racey?

[Northernpopquizzer]

Excellent answer Rob, Racey and 'Kitty' were the 2 answers I was looking for. Over to you for a tester from you.

[RobJones]

Not sure if this is a 'tester' but...

Name me two Boney M singles that contain a profession in the title.
