Every number one on the Billboard Hot 100 from 1958 to now!

5 to ten second clips of each tune. the history of the top hits. it's a long view but you can always listen as background and break it up over the long weekend.

Notes from Msongs: Elvis domination occurred in the years before the Hot 100 was a thing. And there is also the week everything changed in the USA for music and youth culture. Can you spot it?
