Its B-side, “Smooth Sailing,” is added to the listing for the Temptations’ “Take a Look Around.” “Smooth Sailing” did not chart nationally.

Three Dog Night’s “Family of Man” returns to the survey after one week off.

“I Saw the Light” by Todd Rundgren and “Slippin’ Into Darkness” by War were both number 16 hits in Billboard; here Todd will get up to number five and War all the way to number one. “Suavecito” by Malo and “Taurus” by Dennis Coffey were both number 18 hits in BB; here Malo will also peak at number 18 while Dennis will stall at number 46. That leaves “You Are the One” by cereal spokesman Sugar Bear and his cartoon band the Sugar Bears, a number 51 national hit that will make it to number 23.
