Bob Luman - Let’s Think About Living (1960)

Bob Luman - Let’s Think About Living (1960)
"Let's Think About Living" is a song written by Boudleaux Bryant, and recorded by Bob Luman in 1960.

The song is an open critique of the teenage tragedy song and gunfighter ballad genera of the time, humorously quipping that if Marty Robbins, Patti Page and the Everly Brothers actually died in the songs where they mention dying ("El Paso" and "Cathy's Clown" in the first and last respective cases) that the singer will soon be the last surviving musician in the industry. The singer suggests happier themes for songs in the future such as living, loving and dancing.

Mark Dinning - Teen Angel (1960)

Mark Dinning - Teen Angel (1960)
"Teen Angel" is a teenage tragedy song written by Jean Dinning (1924–2011) and her husband, Red Surrey, and performed by both Jean's brother, Mark Dinning, and Alex Murray in 1959. "Teen Angel" was released in October 1959. The song was not an instant success, with radio stations in the U.S. banning the song, considering it too sad. Despite the reluctance of radio stations, the song continued to climb the charts. In the last week of 1959, the single jumped from #100 to #50 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart. It went on to reach #1 on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 (February 1960)
