This week is the 60th anniversary of the Billboard Top 100 songs countdown. I stumbled across that piece of information while researching something else. What were the Top 15 songs of that week? I can see why some of these songs are still around in pop culture and I can see why some of these songs have been long forgotten.
1) Ricky Nelson "Poor Little Fool":
2) Perez Prado and his Orchestra "Patricia":
3) Bobby Darin "Splish Splash":
4) Elvis Presley With The Jordainaires "Hard Headed Woman":
5) Kalin Twins "When":
6) Duane Eddy His Twangy Guitar and The Rebels "Rebel-'rouser":
7) The Coasters "Yakety Yak":
8) Jack Scott "My True Love":
9) The Johnny Otis Show "Willie And The Hand Jive":
