I stand corrected....apologies. OCC has them in the chart at 14.04.1965 Yes, it was a USA top 20 hit in 1964.
Incidentally, there are a small number of pre 1950s track to come for you to vote on by the likes Glenn Miller; Judy Garland; Bing Crosby; Vera Lynn; & Billie Holiday....
Thank you to the 15 of you who have already taken the trouble to vote. Pleasingly, just one song is left on Nil Points.
That's good as I like the 50s too, especially Glenn Miller.

That was a big shock. Only 7 of my choices didnt win which was not too bad. Think a few were close contests.

Good number of very close votes there.
Andy Williams, Archies, Shirley Bassey, Glen Campbell, Barry McGuire surprises for me.
