Jonathan King’s cheerful anti-drug song “Round, Round” only Bubbled Under at number 122 in Billboard, but here it’ll get to number 26.  “Hip Hug-Her” by Booker T. & the MG’s was a number 37 BB hit, while here it is debuting higher than that and will peak at number four.  Aretha Franklin’s “Respect,” number one for two weeks nationally, will only make it to number eight here, while the Tremeloes’ “Here Comes My Baby” will peak at number 25 here as opposed to number 13.

Maybe this isn’t unusual, but I was noticing all the personal pronouns toward the top of the chart: #1 (I, You), #2 (I, We), #4 (I), #7 (You), #8 (Him, Me), #9 (Me, You), #11 (You), #12 (I), #14 (Me), #15 (My), #16 (You)…
