That's because I was muddled. I was thinking of Are you Sure? by the Allisons.

But there is another song - Are you mine, all the time? Yes sirree. Google tells me it's George Jones. I'm not sure that's who I remember singing it though.

May-Cee

A pedant writes:

As I know everyone knows, lots of songs that should have a question mark in the title actually don't.
For every "Who Knows Where The Time Goes?" - where the question mark is present and correct - there's a "Wouldn't It Be Nice" where it's nowhere to be seen.

Usually, it's just (endearing) sloppiness and not worth worrying about. I just add the question mark if I feel like it; same as everyone else.

At the risk of sounding pretentious (don't answer that!) I baulk at just one instance.
I think it's important to the meaning of his masterpiece to leave out (as Marvin intended) the question mark in -
"What's Going On".

Because it's NOT (really) a question.

Indeed, I'd extend the same principle to the second track -
"What's Happening, Brother".


It's a complicated business, innit?
Which I wish I hadn't started!

Yes , you're right may=cee ..... i noticed lack of ?s when looking around for songs. I wonder why; somebody must have taken a decision. perhaps it was thought to be 'rhetorical', so unimportant.

May-Cee, one of my first thoughts for this thread was the song When. "When" [when, when you smilie, when you smile at me, then...]. But it's not really a question, though the last sentence also starting with when is. "When will you be mine?" Google tells me of a 1974 version, but that's too late for the one I'm thinking of. Everything I think of is earlier than 1974.

Your positioning of the question-mark, Norm, suggests a question and a potential answer.
I prefer "What is that thing called, love?"


...cognate, I suppose, in a somewhat ribald way, with Ken Dodd's "A-piness, 'a-piness, the greatest gift that I possess!" <wink>

But I digress...

"What, now, my love?" <whistles>
