    Hitch Hike/ Rolling Stones?

    I must confess that I am not familiar with that song :/

    From 1970, and I think a 1 hit wonder. Hitch is good for a partial credit. The song title is very similar to a song on the first Boston album.

    Is it Butchie's Tune by The Lovin' Spoonful?

    I don't think I've ever heard that one before. If that's correct then Susie can go, I had to research it too.

    I Will Always Love You.

    I remember both versions of that song for sure. It would have been about sixth grade for me.

    I didn't know they did any of the same songs. My guess was Respect and then I did some research to confirm.

    Is Respect what you're looking for?
