Are there any 50s styles for songs like 'only you know me' by Robbie Williams or 'tears on my pillow' by Kylie.?

I don't know; when I think of Tears on My Pillow and the 50's, I'm more inclined to think of Little Anthony and The Imperials.
Just sayin'...

I've been trying to find styles like that myself, no luck. I like the oldies too. If there is an answer I'm sure someone will chime in.

Like do wop, somewhere in that genre. The old rock and roll, and maybe some early Motown.

Open up the Styles Window and search for "50s" without the quotes and this will display a number of styles in succession.

I ditto critter.
I would imagine the tracks would be very easy to do. It was a simple style back in the day. It does not have to be anything obscure like The Harptones, or The Cadillacs, or Duprees. Perhaps, just a Big Chill maybe.
Hey jford, did you ever get the chance to hear Little Anthony & the Imperials when they reunited for the PBS program? They did an awesome version of Tears On My Pillow. But, Anthony tore the roof off with "Hurt So Bad." Incredible to have such chops as recent as in the 2000's when it was recorded.
