Sixteen Going on Seventeen (from The Sound of Music) - Molly Jackson, The Family at Red-Roofs

Brilliant disguise. (Bruce Springsteen) - Fatty

Sweet talking guy. (The Chiffons) - Peter, (Secret Seven).

Another one for George Kirrin - Georgy Girl (The Seekers):
Hey there, Georgy girl
Why do all the boys just pass you by?
Could it be you just don't try
Or is it the clothes you wear?
