Way back in the 80s Brendan Balfe had a show on a Sunday afternoon and always threw out the odd question most were easy enough but this one even had the so called experts cringing me included.Here it is and its a good one.What well known Irish artist released a single back in 1962 called Remember Me Huh on the Oriole label under the name Mark Dwayne.

Hey TP....I found the record title but it's not recorded by your mystery man. This one was recorded in 1962 by Bobby Vee. Written by Goffin & King. Is it the same song?  8)

Hey TP. Did you know that your mystery man also recorded another song in '62 on the Oriole label? It was called 'Little Bitty Heart' (A-side) with 'Today's Teardrops' on the B-side. Also he was on 'Thank your lucky stars' in the same year. 8)
