Every Number 1 Of The 60's (Part 3) UK ♫

[@dotbownes8581]

What wonderful music,so lucky to have been a teenager in the 60s,best music ever,thank you for reliving some wonderful memories,

[@DC-js4gk]

Unfortunate end to one eventful decade. Sandie Shaw seemed to wing it, amazed at her popularity. Although I love that sound. Still, I'm amazed at the popularity of many artists. For me the most underrated was Bobbie Gentry

[@jules8002]

I started my band in ‘60’s when I was 13 years old and we still included some 60s song till 2000’s. Now I find it amazing that at karaokes some youngsters still come up with 60’s songs ! Those hits will never ever die.

[@pinkdhalia50]

i have just been transported back to the years when i left school, started work, married, had a child, bought a house, and divorced! and a lot of memories in between, i thank you for the heart thumping occasions, the adrenalin occasions, the fun times and the secret times.......wow! thank youx

[@33Birchmoor]

Wow,you have lived.Your comment was 6 years ago.Has the rollercoaster ride continued?

[@franm1721]

all I remember is happiness, from a world much larger, from youth free and with spirit, opportunity, and girls that did not no everything, and music to be mesmerised by, Thank you so much for this compilation .

[@rippi37]

Oh...what a decade !!!!! The memories are wonderful !! I am lost in the 60's ....never to return to the crappy music of today.....lol

[@MrCatfarmer]

If you grew up in the 60s you were given a gift. If you missed it, you missed the best 10 years of music and love.

[@janbush9579]

Oh memories, i was back in the 60s then.. how time flies, over 50nyears gone

[@frankhornby6873]

Brilliant!....No 1s ...right throughout my teenage years.....took me back in time.....🎶...thanks...

[@Atom-56]

Just watched part 1, 2 and 3 of all the No 1s throughout the 60s, what a treat to hear all those great sounds again, THANKS SO MUCH!

[@UKMusicCharts-UK]

You are welcome Julie, I'm glad that you enjoyed it !

[@dpb1948]

I have all of these songs in my music collection except "Two Little Boys" , play them all the time, not like today's earache music or would you call it music?

[@marcdsh6998]

Brings back wonderful memories of a great time in my life. Thank you for posting.

Glad it brought back happy memories for you and thank you for watching, have a nice day!

[@marks4457]

Watched entire series and am surprised at the variety of musical genres that were popular throughout the 60s. What a great decade for music! 🎼🎶🎼

[@rippi37]

I just watched the series too .. couldn't stop once I started....lol

[@ceejay1794]

It was amazing times for music!

[@erninoherminio6629]

And many didn't reach number one in the USA or the UK. Even a japanese reached. Nearly 99 songs never reached the highest post for every one that did. For example, Norwigean Wood did not.

[@rlsaville]

Great viewing, lots of memories. The sixties were a bit special however rose-tinted my spectacles might be. Thanks for the memory.

[@33Birchmoor]

I was in my early teens when these songs were in the charts.I'm 62 now,and love the creative and mixed era then.These songs are standards today,but back in the day,we didn't see them as that,just great sounds.Great that the Stones are around still,sad that many featured here are not,but a thoroughly enjoyable compilation

[@christiaanmeyer8269]

What a pleasure to listen to quility sound like that for a change What a pleasure

[@2345kazz]

oh my god loved all 1, 2 and 3, brought back so many memories, thank you so much

[@UKMusicCharts-UK]

Thank you for your comment Ken! Dusty Springfield's "I just don't know what to do with myself" only made it to #3 in the UK charts, her #1 was "You Don't Have to Say You Love Me", once again thank you and everyone for your comments, much appreciated! If you like this then please check out the 70's and 80's versions! Tom.

Loved these sounds of the 60s. My time. Pop music stopped for me after that. Thanks for the memories.

[@robertlindo8058]

Fantastic walk down memory lane. Spot on!.

[@whp61]

Absolutely superb as are all of your videos. Thank you.

[@tgriff67]

Great memories - a few wee mistakes, e.g. Billy J Kramer’s no.1 in 1963 was Bad To Me, not Little Children, which was correctly slotted in 1964. Same with Georgie Fame and the Blue Flames: Yeh, Yeh was no.1 in Jan/Feb 1965, not Getaway, which was summer 66. Fantastic post though, thank you so much!

[@demongirl64]

a lot of very good songs. i really enjoyed it. thank you for posting all three parts of this!

[@calpharmdoc501]

Great songs…Great times!!

[@paulharvey-hunter1909]

thanks for the great compilation, what memories. Pinklady jst loves the great times of the past

[@Stravinski59]

Absolutely cracking compilations. At first I thought the clips were too short, but they're just right to spark the memories - thoroughly enjoyed the journey through late childhood. Thanks!

[@68blues]

Superb nostagia trip! I went from an uncool primary school kid at the start of the 60’s, to the coolest of cool 17 year old with long hair and superb dress sense in 1969. Fifty years later i'm back to being uncool, bald, Debenhams dressed and moan about the price of everything that i like. Plus side is, i can have a few beers, listen to music on youtube like this and for some strange reason still think i'm cool.

[@michaelrawson6261]

Hey man! Nothin wrong with that! Have a few brews, and if you think you're cool... you ARE!!! PEACE.

[@68blues]

Michael Rawson .....that's it! That's just the type of comment that restores my faith in human nature. A few brews and still think i'm cool....best bit of advice i've had since i hit 50. Rock on Michael, if by some chance we ever meet, the beers are on me.✌🏻😎🍺

[@rippi37]

You sound like you were a pretty cool dude...I thought I was a pretty cool chick back then too ...lol....we are still cool !!!! We lived it !!!

[@werner521]

Hi cockneybasterd, Thank you so much for your brilliant work, I´ve just watched all the parts of the 60´s no. 1 hits! This reminds me so much of that wonderful time. I was born in 1952, and in the 60´s I listened to the BFBS Top Twenty Show in Germany and I recorded my favourite songs by tape recorder. Best wishes from Germany, Werner

[@ladymadonna2010]

Congratulations! Great job! I watched all 3 parts and got tears in my eyes :-)

[@randallsage6740]

This was.... is good, very good. Thank you for posting !! I watched all 3, 1-2 and 3.

Wonderful 3 part edition ! Thanks for the JOY !

[@wmbrown6]

(PART 3) We now take a look at the "other" #1's of the 1968-69 period, which saw Record Retailer and the BBC combine to give birth to what we now call the "Official Charts" in February 1969 - and in September, Top Pops becoming Top Pops & Music Now! As you can see as we go along, TP's / TP/MN's add-on changed the game in quite a few cases. With New Musical Express and Melody Maker, here's what in this period topped the "other" charts: - "Help Yourself" by Tom Jones (NME) - "This Guy's In Love With You" by Herb Alpert (MM) - "Eloise" by Barry Ryan (NME, MM; the last "other" #1 prior to the start-up of the "official" charts) - "My Sentimental Friend" by Herman's Hermits (TP; first #1 only to top their chart, and first post-"Official" "other" #1) - "Oh Happy Day" by The Edwin Hawkins Singers (TP) - "In The Ghetto" by Elvis Presley (NME, MM, TP; the first of the "official" era to make #1 on every chart but that) - "Saved By The Bell" by Robin Gibb (TP) - "My Cherie Amour" by Stevie Wonder (TP) - "Don't Forget To Remember" by The Bee Gees (TP/MN) - "Oh Well" by Fleetwood Mac (NME, TP/MN) - "(Call Me) Number One" by The Tremeloes (TP/MN; was to be that publication's last 'unique' #1) - "Yester-Me, Yester-You, Yesterday" by Stevie Wonder (NME, MM) - "Ruby, Don't Take Your Love To Town" by Kenny Rogers And The First Edition (NME, TP/MN) "Official" #1's - solely Record Retailer up to February 1969, the BMRB / RR / BBC chart thereafter - that failed to top any of the others in this period were "I Pretend" and "Do It Again." Had not TP / TP/MN been included in this equation, the list of "official only" #1's would have also included "Fire" and "Je T'aime . . . Moi Non Plus"; but since these topped both there and TP / TP/MN, that's therefore two less in that count. Note the six #1's that only did so in TP / TP/MN; 1969 was to be the only year they pulled this feat, one that would never be repeated in the publication's all-too-short history. TP/MN also allowed two legacy British acts - Herman's Hermits and The Tremeloes - to have what would be their last singles to top any UK chart. These were a definite add-on to what topped "officially."

[@slowhand27955]

Happened upon this and was enthralled, well put together. Brought back some great memories. Thanks :-)

[@Jagshemashable]

WOW! What a lot of work - well done, thank you a great nostalgia trip and eye opener - in the words of Maurice Chevallier "Ah yes I remem bear eet werl"!

[@foss1316]

top job mate on all your videos, many memories have been rekindled.

[@TheRumphumper]

Oh Rolf! Please don't let it be true. Mud sticks though. I'm am absolutely gutted about it and don't mind telling you that I nearly burst into tears right at the end then. Great job putting it all together. I'm an Aussie and if we did a Sixties #1s I reckon it would not be too dissimilar to yours. Cheers mate.

[@rippi37]

Oh....Rolf...creepy , dirty old bastard he turned out to be !!!

[@netibiza1]

Yes thank you so much for this, wow the memories, I could cry for the silly girl I was then!

[@Isleofskye]

Great Video! Anyone spot the deliberate mistake? :) Albatross was by the original Fleetwood Mac with Peter Green, Danny Kirwan, and Jeremy Spencer along with Mick Fleetwood and John McVie. When all 3 guitarists left then the transatlantic (Rumours ) Fleetwood Mac replaced them with Stevie Nicks...:)

[@robmidsx]

Once again well done for putting in a lot of hard work on these. I watched the three 70s ones first and these are probably even better because the tracks and pictures are harder to find as you go back in time.

[@vernonchadwick8679]

Groovy ☺️😊

[@festralbloke]

Very good! Appreciate the hard work put into this compilation.

[@D800Lover]

Three Beatles songs that were made covers by others, the covers became #1 - that I didn't realise. They were "Michelle" - "With A Little Help From My Friends" and finally "Oh-Bla-Di." .

[@dadoctah]

Funny seeing O-Bla-Di replace The Scaffold (with Macca's brother) at #1.

[@garethb1961]

@@dadoctah And Lily the Pink was written by Paul McCartney under a nom de plume.

[@lilianelucas8123]

And Mac cartney produced Mary hopkin those were the days

[@uncljoerey]

The Beatles had so many good songs that some of the best weren't released as singles. "You've Got To Hide Your Love Away" was issued as a single by a group signed by Brian Epstein called The Silkie. Produced by John Lennon himself, I don't think it was nearly as good as the Beatles original yet it was still a pretty big hit.

[@Kieop]

@@garethb1961 Are you taking the piss? the scaffold adapted the lyrics from a folk song.

[@zeberdee17]

What a brilliant compilation......love it, thanks.

[@Termite30]

Great posts! I've heard covers of many of these songs before, but this was the first time I've ever heard their original versions, lol. It was cool listening to the styles of music gradually evolve, as the years went by :)

[@soinorman]

Funny how the Peter Green thing jars ......He's still got a lot of loyal fans. And it's like a musical circularity at the end where the progression is reversed....... I'd never thought that about the 60's But what gems.....and of course memories for old farts like myself. Thanks

Fair play, for all the great stuff by the Beatles, Stones, Kinks, Motown etc there was some crap that got to number 1 - Ken Dodd, Des O'Connor, Rolf Harris etc. Erratic buying from the public.

[@arthurhamilton9305]

don,t forget the older generation were buying records as well

[@countyfactswailuigi]

The Beegees had some bangers in the 60's they don't get credit for. Also, that Two Little Boys song creeped me out

[@donmalone]

Was surprised Lulu's To Sir With Love didn't reach #1 or even #2 in the UK as it was such a big hit in the US.

[@DC-js4gk]

Yeah was definitely No.1 in ythese parts for a lot of that year. Polk Salad Annie, Ballad of Billy Joe both No. 1

My favourite song in 1969 was, Hot Smoke and Sassafras - the Bubble Puppy. I did not expect it to be #1.

[@michaeladkins6]

Good video. I live in the US. Looking at your 60s vs ours. The biggest difference were the Supremes had no #1s there. They kept up with the Beatles here. On the other side, Cliff Richard didnt have his first hit until Devil Woman 1976. Engelbert Humperdinck wasnt as big here.

[@heinrichvon]

A musical renaissance that will never come again. Not everything here's a masterpiece, to be sure, but there was so much extraordinary work that you have to hand it to the pop music audience of the day. It's ironic that the Top 40 at the time was considered by many to be a vast wasteland, comparable to prime time TV. My only quibbles would be that the Fleetwood Mac photo doesn't show Peter Green (who wrote Albatross), and the cut of Something in the Air is unbearably tinny.

[@auteurAM]

It is hard to believe some of those songs were from so long ago particularly in parts one and two. Some you have to wonder how they ever got to number 1!
