"Sugar, Sugar" is a song written by Jeff Barry and Andy Kim. It was originally recorded by the cartoon band the Archies. This version reached No. 1 in the US on the Billboard Hot 100 chart in 1969 and remained there for four weeks. It was also No.1 on the UK Singles chart in that same year for eight weeks. The song became a hit again in 1970 when rhythm and blues and soul singer Wilson Pickett took it back onto the charts with his own version.

6. This stupid song was the #1 song in 1969, the year I graduated high school.

The #1 songs before and after were Bridge Over Troubled Water and Hey Jude.

What the hell was wrong with listeners in 1969?
