When I was a little kid, I spent a lot of time listening to Top 40 songs on my transistor radio.

One thing I learned, thanks in part to a singer named Lou Christie, was that when I grew up to be a teenager I would be entering a world of mysterious naughtiness.

I suspect I was not alone.

Here are my favorite Lou Christie songs from the '60s:

1. "Lightning Strikes."

2. "Rhapsody in the Rain."

3. "Two Faces Have I."

4. "I'm Gonna Make You Mine."
