Lulu’s “Me the Peaceful Heart” peaked at number 15 last week, but it drops off the survey this week.  Last week’s number 20 and 25 songs are also gone this week.

“Goodbye Baby” by Tommy Boyce & Bobby Hart returns to the survey this week after three weeks’ absence; it’s at the same spot it was before it left, number 37.

Patti Page’s version of Glen Campbell’s “Gentle on My Mind” was a number 66 hit at Billboard; here, it’ll slowly inch up from its number 33 debut position to number 26 five weeks from now, then fall off the survey.  Bobby Vee’s medley of “My Girl” and “Hey Girl” made number 35 in Billboard, while it’ll get to number six here.  Stevie Wonder’s “Shoo-Be-Doo-Be-Doo-Da-Day” (9 BB/38KJR) and the Intruders’ “Cowboys to Girls” (6/30) will fall far short of their national success.

The second consecutive week with very little change—seven songs stay in the same place, ten move up or down one spot, and eight move up or down two spots.

“Tapioca Tundra” drops off, leaving “Valleri” by itself for its final three weeks on the survey (it will sink quickly from this week’s number seven ranking).

Two weeks ago “La-La-Means I Love You” by the Delfonics peaked at number 17; last week it was number 19; this week it’s gone.

“Goin’ Away,” the Fireballs’ follow-up to “Bottle of Wine,” is spending its only week on the survey, at number 41; in Billboard it peaked at number 79.  “Friends” by the Beach Boys was a number 47 BB hit, while here it’ll get to number 26.

The songs at number 49 and 50 will each stay in the same position next week, and then drop off the survey.  Nationally, though, they were not at all similar—“Sweet Inspiration” was a number 18 BB hit, while “Slick” was just number 119.  (“Slick” was the b-side of “Cabaret,” a number 72 Billboard hit that did not get played at KJR.)
