4) They both robbed and killed until both of them died

5) He rolled down the window of his shiny new Jag and challenged me then and there to a drag Deadman's Curve by Jan & Dean ([livejournal.com profile] skogkat)

Okay, the last one is "We Built This City". Because when I was a kid, I always thought the line was "Marconi played the mamba... listen to the radio". :)

Those are some of the easier ones, indeed.

12) I know the title as "Er-lye in the Morning" (at least that is how it is pronounced), recorded many times by many people over the years.

Is #5 from Hot Rod Lincoln by Commander Cody and his Lost Planet Airmen?

"Er-lye in the morning" is the chorus, but not the title. And yes, many,many people have recorded it. Hence, any reasonable facsimile

Right era for number five, but not "Hot Rod Lincoln." (there he was racing a Cadillac)
