2. Correction !!!

Abraham Martin and John was Dion solo NOT with the Belmonts..as was a single he had following that...can't remember the song title but started out "I been sitting here thinking, about when I started drinking, I went on to dope"...

4. Thank you, NightTrain person.

I enjoy your posts very much.

If you are a doo-wop fan, I hope that you will tickle us with some posts about doo-wop. Also, what I call "Philadelphia" sounds...you know, when "Bandstand" originated from there.

Anyway, thanks for all of your messages.

6. Runaround Sue! her name was Susan, U. of Delaware

The early 80s, I was so in love, so long ago, where is she now, I wonder sometimes.

10. When Ernie Maresca wrote "Runaround Sue"...

...he was actually thinking of a real-life girl named Roberta. But I suppose "Runaround Roberta" just wouldn't have had the same ring!

7. Since a couple of you brought it up....

...I'm fully aware that only the first three songs in this poll are by Dion and the Belmonts. The remaining six were all hits for Dion after he went solo. That's why, in the subject line, I put "(and the Belmonts)" in parentheses!

8. I figured that out after the fact

I JUST KNEW you were infallible :D

BTW, the song I was thinking of was "In Your Own Backyard"

I can't choose a favorite of Dion's..I love em ALL!
