Hello again everyone and welcome back to this week’s Golden Oldies Top 40 countdown. I’m DJ Ceejay with this week’s biggest oldies hits, here on songfacts.com.

Last week, the Polish Prince Bobby Vinton continued his (not so purple) reign at the top of the chart with Blue on Blue. Will he keep his throne another week? We’ll find out shortly.

2 songs drop out this week:

Monster Mash by Bobby “Boris†Pickett gets mashed this week, after a Halloween-inspired thrill-ride to #28.

And this week is a heartbreaker for Dionne Warwick as Anyone Who Had a Heart gets coded after a 2-week stint topped at #37.

2 songs enter the chart this week; the first is a re-entry of a song that appeared in the very first GO-40 chart.

Singing the Blues by Guy Mitchell was at #5 back in week #1; this week, it re-appears at #40.

And debuting at #39 is the first chart hit for Hank Ballard & the Midnighters, Finger Poppin’ Time. Numbers 31 through 40 look as follows:

TW31 LW28 BONY MORONIE LARRY WILLIAMS

TW32 LW35 TOO YOUNG NAT 'KING' COLE

TW33 LW26 HITCH HIKE MARVIN GAYE

TW34 LW37 HE’S SO FINE CHIFFONS

TW35 LW29 DUKE OF EARL GENE CHANDLER

TW36 LW30 CHAIN GANG SAM COOKE

TW37 LW33 HAPPY, HAPPY BIRTHDAY BABY TUNE WEAVERS

TW38 LW39 EBONY EYES EVERLY BROTHERS

TW 39 NEW FINGER POPPIN TIME HANK BALLARD & THE MIDNIGHTERS TW40 NEW SINGING THE BLUES GUY MITCHELL

(Please note that last week’s rankings reflect a correction of a scoring error for songs #28-30.)

I’m Sorry by Brenda Lee makes the rest of the countdown sorry this week, as it ties for the 2nd biggest jump this week, leaping 9 points from #36 to #27. The rest of the songs from #21 to #30 are:

TW21 LW23YOU CAN’T CATCH ME CHUCK BERRY

TW22 LW16 WITCH DOCTOR DAVID SEVILLE

TW23 LW17 BO DIDDLEY BO DIDDLEY

TW24 LW25 GREENFIELDS BROTHERS FOUR

TW25 LW15 CRY BABY GARNET MIMMS & ENCHANTERS

TW27 LW36 I’M SORRY BRENDA LEE

TW28 LW31 RAMBLIN' ROSE NAT 'KING' COLE

TW29 LW32 WHEN WILL I BE LOVED EVERLY BROS

TW30 LW24 SPANISH HARLEM BEN E.KING

Also climbing 9 notches this week is Connie Francis with Where the Boys Are. And it’s not make believe; the biggest mover in the countdown this week, up 14 from #34 to #20 is Conway Twitty’s It’s Only Make Believe. Here’s the rest of the songs from #11 to #20:

TW11 LW20 KEEP SEARCHIN' DEL SHANNON

Only 1 new song joins the top 10 this week; it’s the 1st top 10 for Little Stevie Wonder, Fingertips (Part II), up 3 from #13 to #10. These are the songs from #6 to #10:

TW 8 LW 7 PUFF THE MAGIC DRAGON PETER, PAUL&MARY

TW 7 LW 8 ALL THE WAY FRANK SINATRA

And dropping out of the top spot after 3 weeks is:

TW 2 LW 1 BLUE ON BLUE BOBBY VINTON

:drummer:

TW 1 LW 3 TOWN WITHOUT PITY GENE PITNEY

And there you have it, this week’s Golden Oldies top 40. Log in again next week, when we count them down all over again. Until next week, keep your head in the stars :stars: and keep reaching for the ground. :doh:
