Lots of jumping around within the survey due to it having been two weeks since the last one.

“Snoopy’s Christmas” drops off from number three, but really, how big a surprise is that?

The only one of the nine debuts that was not a Hot 100 hit is the mellow “So it Goes” by Anders ‘n’ Poncia, whom we have previously seen here under the names the Trade Winds and the Innocence.  It’ll peak next week at number 34.  Of the others, worth mentioning are the Five Americans’ pop-psych “7:30 Guided Tour,” a number 96 BB hit that will get to number 20 here; “Zabadak” by Dave Dee, Dozy, Beaky, Mick & Tich, a big hit in England that stopped at number 52 at Billboard but will make it to number 22 here; and the Fireballs’ “Bottle of Wine,” which was a number nine hit nationally but will go to number two here for two weeks, blocked out of the top spot by “Love is Blue.”
