Jill's choice is the final year of the sixties. Make your selections, and post them here, with a youtube link if possible. They'll go in a poll later in the week and we'll vote for the best. To get us back on track with Monday starts/Sunday finishes, this game will be either half a week longer or shorter, depending on how quickly the songs are posted.

Go.

Jackie Wilson, Your Love Keeps Lifting Me (Higher and Higher).

[Gaspode_The_Wonder_Dog]

One of my favourite songs ever and also a reason to hate Paul Weller.

[MK Chris]

Elvis - Suspicious Minds

[CassieJackson]

Glen Campbell - Wichita Lineman
One of my favourite songs ever.

This is way before my time but i choose The Hollies - He Ain't Heavy He's My Brother.
Brilliant song in my opinion.

[Johnny 1989]

My choice:



Frank Sinatra - My Way - Release: Apr 1969 - Chart High: 5

Always liked this song, didn't care much for the Sid Vicious version though.

[Zoot]

In a year where Led Zep was rife in the charts, it may surprise some people here that i'm going for this, but it's such an amazing song, I had to.

Dusty Springfield - Son of a Preacher Man

[Gaspode_The_Wonder_Dog]

Again what a great year with Get Back by The Beatles too it shows up more recent years.

[Jill]

Sugar Sugar - The Archies

Sugar ohhhh honey honey

[Bonanzoid]

Johnny Cash - Boy Named Sue.

[Yudster]

I love good vocals, this was a great year for that. However, one stands out vocally head and shoulders above all others - Zoot wins.

[MK Chris]

*! I LOVE Build Me Up Buttercup. I totally missed it!

[Boboff]

Well, in deference to the local Marines at Bickliegh in Plymouth ( Back to Afganistan for the 3rd time soon) it has to be

Rolf Harris - Two Little Boys




YEah I managed to embed it!!!!

[Munki Bhoy]

The more I listen to the Beatles, the more I think George did the best songs - never mind Lennon & McCartney!

The Beatles - Something



Love how McCartney now does this as part of his tour as well. Wonderful tribute to a friend.

[DevilsDuck]

Oh my god, build me up butter cup is going to win by a country mile

[Sidders]

Was tempted by David Bowie with Space Oddity, and Simon and Garfunkel with Please Mrs Robinson, but in the end had to go for this classic:

[bmstinton93]

The Foundations- Build Me Up Buttercup

that was 1968 according to the guiness book of hit singles and wikipedia

[Sidders]

It was still in the charts in 1969 so is still valid.

[bmstinton93]

Oh crap! Its too good its going to easily win this week.

[Sidders]

Oh crap! Its too good its going to easily win this week.

I'm not actually too keen on it.

[Johnny 1989]

No need for a poll, Build Me Up Buttercup wins this week

[bmstinton93]

Happy 6000th post!

[Johnny 1989]

Apologies in advance if I have jinxed it.
