Name The Artist And Song.

[cupid04]

Please could you name the following song of the late 50's, early 60's.
The only lyric I've got is:- 'You think love is a simple game.'

cupid04 I seen this post earlier ,I really meant to get back to you with an answer then I forgot,anyway all I thought about was Paul Simon but it was 1980's Oh Marion this is a verse from the song.
Oh, Marion
I think I’m in trouble here
I should’ve believed you
When I heard you saying it
The only time
That love is an easy game
Is when two other people
Are playing it

Thanks for help but wrong era.It's definitely late fifties/early sixties.
I'll let you know when I find out the answer.

[another line from the same song:- Now that I've found you, don't you stray too far.]

I've tried several sites where you can print part lyric, but no luck so far.

[katburd]

ok Cupid I'll give it another try.

Let you know shortly. It's a radio phone-in. Dee-jay will be giving answer shortly. Usually take part every Sunday night. But this one has mr.c and I completely stumped!

[WyeDyed]

Who's "Shortly"?

[cupid04]

I'll keep you in suspenders no longer. The answer is:- 'What is wrong with my loving you' by Emile Ford. [Never heard of it, have you?] Love Cupes.xx

[WyeDyed]

This one?

Not exactly a 'classic' in my humble opinion :)

[cupid04]

Nor me, [It doesn't get a mention in my 'Guiness British hit singles!']
He did it without ' the checkmates.' Thanks for all your help and everybody else who had a go.x

[katburd]

morning cupid04, just checking to see what the answer was. (bit obscure) one of those music questions you either know or don't know.
