1. "Tell Me How"

The B-side of "Maybe Baby."

2. I like "Peggy Sue Got Married"- the best "sequel song " ever..
the melody and changes in that song are great- one of my favorites.

I also love "Think it Over", "Little Baby" and "Modern Day Don Juan"

4. I voted for
Edited on Sat Aug-30-03 03:46 PM by cherryperry
It Doesn't Matter Anymore, but like Think It Over and Everyday just as much. I had to vote the way I did because (at this time) no one else had voted for any of my 3 favorites, so I just arbitrarily picked one of them.

:loveya:

8. It wasn't left off!

The song's title is "Not Fade Away," and I listed it.

6. All of them
I may have put my foot down when my husband wanted to name our firstborn son "Buddy" (and, yes, he really did suggest it), but there's hardly a Buddy Holly song I wouldn't rather listen to than most other things.

However, of the ones you name, I probably like "Everyday," "Oh, Boy!" and "Rave On" slightly better than the rest.

9. @#$*&% typo!

Obviously, I meant the first song to be "That'll Be The Day," not "Thar'll." Pay attention, NightTrain! Geez....

Please forgive me, ok? I'd really appreciate it!

24. True Love Ways
One of the songs released after his death. Like Jim Croce, some of Buddy's best work didn't get release until after he was gone........

25. Words of Love
Let me hear you say the words I long to hear
Darling when you're near
Words of love you whisper soft and true
Darling I love you

Hold me close and tell me how you feel
Tell me love is real
Words of love you whisper soft and true
Darling I love you


I understand some pop group from Liverpool recorded it. That group's version also holds the distinction of being the second song on the first tape I made for Marie O8)
