To win ‘Fab Four’ tickets on ‘Tickets @2′ be listening for “Sugar, Sugar” by [lastfm link_type="artist_info"]The Archies[/lastfm].

The Archies was the group that performed on the Saturday morning cartoon Archie. The group itself was never seen, just the cartoon characters. The song was written by Andy Kim and Jeff Barry, and was recorded by session musicians including Kim, Toni Wine, Ron Dante and Ellie Greenwich.

Kim has a hit in 1974 with “Rock Me Gently,” Dante produced “Mandy” for Barry Manilow and “Heartbreaker” for Pat Benetar. Greenwich has written many big hits including “Be My Baby” and “Chapel Of Love.” Toni Wine wrote the hit songs “Groovy Kind Of Love” and “Candida.”

This was the # 1 song of 1969 in the US. It beat out songs by The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, The Jackson 5, Elvis Presley, David Bowie, and Stevie Wonder.

We’ll take caller #7 at 1-800-232-KRTH (5784) when we play it between two and three to win a pair of tickets to see The Fab Four at The Grove of Anaheim.
