Congratulations Houdini. Great to finish 2nd, thanks Pete for running this again.

I need Crystal Palace to win 13-0 then. 🤔

What are the scores going into the final? I think I might have climbed to 2nd place but still a long way behind Houdini.

13th - 19th May 1965 28. Poor Man's Song - The Rockin' Berries https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B47t6JKXiWw This will be the group's second top 5 hit. The production is kept simple and there are some good harmonies but not the most memorable song. 38. (You've) Never Been In Love Like This Before - Unit Four Plus Two https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QMZzoRNjx54 The follow-up to their number 1 single has a strong chorus including some hand claps but won't do as well, peaking at number 14. They will release eight more singles but none of them will reach the top 40 and they will break up in 1970. 39. Iko Iko - The Dixie Cups https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K5GzVZjd0iI Just a week after The Clapping Song comes another song covered by the Belle Stars in 1982. Natasha also did a version around the same time and had a bigger hit with it. The Dixie Cups' version started out as an impromptu jam in the studio using drumsticks for the beat and they are kept for the final recording. I like this one. It will be their second and last hit single. Record of the week : 33. Long Live Love - Sandie Shaw I've gone for this pop song which also has a Latin American style rhythm to it. "We meet every night at eight" is the line I always remember it for. It will be Sandie's second number 1 single, spending three weeks at the top of the chart.

Thanks, both of you. Round 1: 30 The year, So Cold The Night Round 2: 33 Fountains Of Wayne 3 in 10: 2 Sexual Healing, I Heard It Through The Grapevine. I said What's Going On as well but had a feeling it wasn't a hit single.

I have also confirmed something.

I remember watching Top Of The Pops as early as 1971 but I think it was 1974 before I would listen to Radio 1 playing the chart on Sunday evenings with my sister. At that time, I think it was just the top 20 that they played. I would sometimes write down the chart as they played each song.
