Don McLean makes a big leap up the survey, while the
Partridge Family actually gains ground on him.
One non-Hot 100 debut: the Carpenters’ “Merry Christmas
Darling,” which hit number one for the second consecutive year on the Christmas
singles chart. Also worth mentioning is “Five Hundred Miles” by Heaven Bound, a
number 79 Billboard hit that will get to number 32.
