The game's question
Take turns with the clues. Whoever hears the voice first gets to say the name.
July 1960. School is out, the screen door bangs, and a record spins on the turntable. The song is a heartfelt apology: “I’m Sorry.” It reached No. 1 on July 18, 1960, sung by a voice that seemed to fill the whole house. Circle her name together.
- Kitty Kallen
- Brenda Lee
- Gogi Grant
Need a hint?
Say the title softly, like an apology: “I’m Sorry.” Her first name begins like the word “bread,” and her last name has just three letters.
See the answer
Answer: Brenda Lee—“I’m Sorry” reached No. 1 on July 18, 1960.
Why this game : The summer of 1960 opens up with that voice: the records, the friends, and the songs played again and again.
