    One smash hit after another! Out of the 30, the only three I'm not liking or remember that fondly was Inez/Charlie Foxx "Mockingbird" (19), Al Martino "I Love You Because" (15), and Skeeter Davis "The End of the World" (2) that I remember, but disliked as it was such a downer! Her other pop crossover hit "I Can't Stay Mad At You" (#7 Sep. 1963 Pop, #14 Country, #2 Adult Contemporary) is my personal favorite of her songs. The other 27 were outstanding, and unfortunately not knowing that year was a last gasp of the more freedom era and innocent year the week before Thanksgiving that then felt there was little to be thankful for.

      @@4onthefloor889 It didn't have Skeeter's (better) song overall, than her maudlin song, 'I Can't Stay Mad at You" (#7 pop, #14 Country, #2 Adult Contemporary, Sep. 1963) that was her first big crossover into pop. Loved that song so much, with the different videos, my favorite is this one: ua-cam.com/video/w5gIPXf5_qo/v-deo.html

    "Sugar Shack" by the [late] Jimmy Gilmer & The Fireballs, was the #1 song for 1963, according to Billboard's ranking.

      Sugar Shack by Jimmy Gilmer and the Fireballs was at no. 40 in the billboard chart according to Wikipedia, maybe it was a late in the year entry and some of the sales were in the following year, that sometimes happens.
      Unless of course it's Wikipedia with their facts slightly wrong I'll have a check from some other sources and if so I may need to make amendments.
      Thanks for your comment 👍

      @@4onthefloor889 Yep, Wiki had a change that you didn't see. Look at it again!
      "SUGAR SHACK is a song written in 1962 by Keith McCormack. McCormack gave songwriting credit to his aunt, Beulah Faye Voss, after asking what are "those tight pants that girls wear" to which she replied "leotards". The song was recorded in 1963 by Jimmy Gilmer and the Fireballs at Norman Petty Studios in Clovis, New Mexico. The unusual and distinctive instrument part was played by Norman Petty on a Hammond Solovox keyboard; to be precise it is a Model L, Series A.
      "Sugar Shack" hit No. 1 on both the Billboard Hot 100 (where it spent five weeks from October 12 to November 9, 1963) and Cashbox singles charts (where it spent three weeks from October 19 to November 2, 1963). Its No. 1 run on the Billboard R&B chart was cut short because Billboard did not publish an R&B chart from November 30, 1963 to January 23, 1965. In Canada the song was No. 1, also for six weeks, from October 14 to November 18.
      "On November 29, 1963, "Sugar Shack" received an RIAA certification for selling over a million copies, earning gold record status. The song was listed at No. 40 on the Hot 100 year-end chart published by Billboard in December 1963. A later revision by Billboard of its year-end rankings for 1963 placed "Sugar Shack" at No. 1, and the magazine has subsequently recognized "Sugar Shack" as the top Hot 100 song of that year. In 2018, the song was listed at number 194 on the "All Time" Billboard Hot 100 60th Anniversary list."

      Cannot see it anywhere on the top 100 of that year.
      Is it a good song? If it is I will look it up 👍
      Thanks for the potential recommendation

    What happened to the Beatles? They had 3 hits in 1963

      Strangely they show up in 1964.

      This is the U.S., not the UK! Wait 'til next year (US) and you'll see plenty of them!
