I don't have an official "chart of the year" for 1960 as the beginning part was redone when I merged 1959 into it.
The top songs of that year from the first time around were:
1. Annette Funicello - Pineapple Princess (although that probably won't appeal to you) 2. Elvis Presley - It's Now Or Never 3. Johnny Kidd & The Pirates - Shakin' All Over 4. Marv Johnson - You Got What It Takes (which now is a crossover but reached #1 at the start of 1960 having entered in 1959) 5. Buddy Holly - True Love Ways 6. Everly Brothers - Cathy's Clown 7. Bobby Rydell - Wild One 8. Shadows - Apache 9. Johnny Tillotson - Poetry In Motion 10 Elvis Presley - Stuck On You

1961:
1. Duane Eddy - Pepe 2. John Leyton - Johnny Remember Me 3. Everly Brothers - Walk Right Back 4. Del Shannon - Runaway 5. Temperance Seven - Pasadena 6. Ben E King - Stand By Me 7. Clarence Frogman Henry - But I Do 8. Elvis Presley - Marie's The Name (His Latest Flame) 9. Billy Fury - Halfway To Paradise 10. Patsy Cline - Crazy
You may also want to add:
Shirelles - Will You Love Me Tomorrow
which would have been in my top 10 but crossed between 1960 and 1961
and
Acker Bilk - Stranger On The Shore
which crossed between 1961 and 1962.

Up to 137 songs so far Thanks everyone. Brought so many memories back with certain songs that I'd forgotten or not heard for a while, and made me very sad about my dad not being here, as a lot of these songs I like are down to him. Maybe I need to do one for the 70s as well, as I only have 39 songs in there! Found a few 70s playlists and boosted it up to 106 songs now! 123 in the 80s

There are so many great 60's songs, far too many to list, but some of my favourites, that I haven't seen mentioned so far
Cupid's Inspiration - Yesterday Has Gone
Marbles - Only One Woman
Casuals - Jesamine

I have 3 major ones one has 1063, another 2026 and the largest has 3798 depends how random I feel. But I have individual ones for every year as well my 70s has 943 but will probably get bigger after the Time Machine

I like to be selective in my pickings, I'm sure I'll add more though to the 80s as well as I discover suggestions and playlists.
