[bluebell56]

I don't like to ask but I am really struggling with this quiz. I have 8 left and the closing date is nearing for the post. The answers are girls names in the song title. Top 20 hits between 1955 and 1985. As it is a no asking quiz any clues would be appreciated.
No.13 Oh! For goodness sake Daniel - you're but a fool about her (5)
No.23 Say, has anybody seen her missing from a sunrise group (5,4)
No.35 The anchor man, say, wants her to stay by him (5)
No.38 In golden verse he dedicated her song to his lost love (5)
No.44 Twice named by one who was a mindbender (6)
No.46 Favoured by Ryan and the cursed (6)
No.48 Ritchie and Marty both had affairs with her (5)
No.49 Jane Gleason gets around as directed by her helmsman (6,5)
I am not into music and have tried and tried and spent hours looking for them.
Thank you everyone.

Thank you. You are all amazing and excellent clues. Would never had got any of them on my own.
Just No.38 to go now.

38. I've gone with singer named John

[elliemay1]

38 The singer's surname has 'Gold' in it and the song title is something sweet

[hellywelly4]

elliemay - I went with John because of the surname in the question, and he sang a song which was called ------'s song.

[elliemay1]

sorry, hellywelly, you're right!

[bluebell56]

Hellywelly and elliemay. If I have worked No.38 right from your clues I have that answer for -
No.4 She's back where she belongs in a musical (5)
So I may have that one wrong now.
