This was beginning to get a bit slow for me, and so I've started Part III, in case there are any more songs that people can think of.

Little known track by Del Shannon

This was released (as a single) in UK before it was ever available in the U.S., and so I had a pen pal in Wales send me a copy of it.

I was not aware that this was a Randy Newman song:

I like both versions, but they sound very different. I also very much like "The Word" by the Beatles and was expecting someone to post it much sooner.
