Radioman34

Rammel Neither answer is correct.  There are subtle differences between your and the correct responses which makes your reply quite plausible.

Marilyne #7 correct

Kelly #10 correct

Radioman34

I'm off to the studio now, so I can't access my files until I get back; although I'll be available in the Classical Corner

Kelly

Hi Radioman
Having a guess at my second song.

Sorry Kelly, that's not the answer for #4

Kelly

Marilyne

#1: this is a long shot, but I remember a pop song from the 40's that went - Can anyone explain, the wonder of love - no, no, no.  I guess the song title was Can Anyone Explain?

Radioman34

Marilyne your aim is good; your answer is correct

Kelly

Any clues Radioman, as the songs have me stumped.

Kelly

Radioman34

Kelly it appears that everyone is stumped, so here are some teasers:

6: How my heart would ache>>>A 1949 movie by the same name
9: Your heart will break>>> Frank Sinatra and Bessie Smith recorded this.

Chia

#2...I don't want to set the world on fire..Thanks for the clue

Marilyne

#6: Oh you Beautiful Doll.  I vaguely remember the movie - Betty Grable or Alice Faye?  I'll have to look it up. 

Radioman34

Chya #2 is correct. You can answer 3 more
Marilyne #6 is correct. The movie featured June Haver, but my favourite character was "Cuddles" Sakall

Radioman34

I'll throw it open now, so answer to your heart's content.
I've added additional lyrics (in italics) to help you along.


3: Music in the night . . . A dream that can be heard     >> A Rodgers & Hart collaboration
5: It’s a possibility. . . it's not unbelievable >>>   A Gershwin hit.  Also the name of a movie
