Better Off Solo:

John Denver was a replacement for one of the original Chad Mitchell trio before he made it on his own..He left in the mid 60's when hootenanny and folk music was waning. Lucky for him, because he made it big afterwards with "Sunshine On My Shoulder" "Annie's Song" "Take Me Home, Country Roads" and the various Rocky Mountain songs...
- Dan
Frankie Lymon was a boy wonder with the Teenagers during the early days of Rock & Roll, with such hits as "Why Do Fools Fall In Love","I'm Not A Juvenile Delinquent" , etc. Then he decided to go solo and virtually disappeared from the music scene. So did the Teenagers.
- Dan
"Tony Williams"
Tony Williams was the lead singer of the Platters when they had their great hits--"The Great Pretender", "Only You", "Twilight Time", "Heaven On Earth". He left the band to pursue a solo career but never did make it on hos own...

Bad Grammar in Song Lyrics:

"Beautiful Girls" by Sean Kingston
The Lyrics:
It was back in '99 Watchin' movies all the time Oh when I went away For doin' my first crime And I never thought That we was gonna see each other (see each other)
Why:
It's obviously wrong because "That we was gonna see each other" does not show correct Subject-Verb Agreement. It should be "That we were gonna see each other"
Submitted by: John Andre Perando

Lyrics Pronunciation:

"Lonely Teenager" by Dion & The Belmonts
The Lyrics:
I wanna go home where I belong
'Cause now I'm just a lonely teenager.
Why:
The word "teenager" is pronounced "teen - ay - JERR" (stress on last syllable) rather than the usual "teen - AGE - er" or "TEEN - age - er" in order to make the words fit the rhythm.
