#4 and #5 Poll

Thanks to the 59 people who voted in Monday’s poll over at The Number Ones!

This poll is dedicated to the memory of poorlittlefool whose spreadsheet I am using for all the songs in this poll (at least until virtual 2022).

Here are the results:

6.039    Claudine Clark – Party Lights  [This poll’s winner!]

5.509    Gene Pitney – (The Man Who Shot) Liberty Valance

2.566    Ray Stevens – Ahab, The Arab

(Congrats Ray Stevens, you now have the lowest rated song in this poll!) 

Here are the bottom five:

2.566    Ray Stevens – Ahab, The Arab

2.616    Vanilla Ice – Play That Funky Music

2.826    Byron MacGregor – Americans

5-5-7-9. The first two are mediocre (to me) The video of “Pied Piper” is a 5 but I have the 45 and it’s a 7 on vinyl.
Dusty is a national treasure.

John Ford had bad taste in music. Gene Pitney’s The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance would’ve only enhanced the film experience. Oh, wait. 5.5. Maybe I have bad taste in music.

Even if I understand why it happened, it still makes me stop and gawk at how Bryan Macgregor’s reading of “Americans”, (and the original by its author Gordon Sinclair) both made the Top 40. The former in the Top 10. Just…such an odd chart anomaly.
