4 and 10 are right. 5 and 9 are wrong. #5 - You have the right label, wrong group. It wasn't Smoky and the Miracles, but he may have written it. #9 - Janis was later in the decade and wrong song. Great guesses though

4 California Girls - BEACH BOYS
5 My Girl - TEMPTATIONS
6 Love Potion No. 9 - THE SEARCHERS

OK, all of these are obscure one hit wonders except #6. It is remote in time, yes, but the group did have several hits. The band on #11 is not as well know, but they also had a hit with "Iko Iko" I think.
1 Game of Love -WAYNE FONTANA AND THE MINDBENDERS
2 Birds and the Bees - JEWEL AKENS
3 The Boy from New York City - AD LIBS
4 Just a Little - THE BEAU BRUMMELS
5 Bread and Butter THE NEWBEATS
6 Under the Boardwalk THE DRIFTERS
7 I Get Around - BEACH BOYS
8 The Little Old Lady from Pasadena - JAN AND DEAN
9 Out of Limits THE MARKETTS
10 Suspicion TERRY STAFFORD
11 Chapel of Love THE DIXIE CUPS
12 She's Not There - ZOMBIES
13 Last Kiss THE CAVALIERS
14 Leader of the Pack -THE SHANGRI-LAS

6. The Drifters (better version was done by The Nylons!)
Sacrilege!!  That's like saying a knock-off of the Mona Lisa is better than the original. I'll have to give the Nylon's version a listen, but I doubt it is "better." The skill needed to record an original composition is much greater than the skill needed to copy it. My appreciation of that will give it an unfair advantage over the Nylons.
It just doesn't get much better than Drifters lead singers Clyde McPhatter and later Ben E. King. The Drifters are rightfully in the Rock 'n' Roll Hall of Fame! Only Pinkney is left from the original group and tours with a group called "the Original Drifters." There have been many knock-offs and lawsuits.
