The first round survey for your favorites of 1960 is traditionally known for it’s tight races, and this year is no exception. A total of 63 different songs received support, 16 more than the 2016 poll. While there were no songs repeating in the Top Five, four of last year’s top songs narrowly missed the elite positions but were in the Top Ten.
Here are your Top Five songs of 1960 in alphabetical order by artist:
“Lonely Teenager” by Dion
“Walking to New Orleans” by Fats Domino
“Only the Lonely” by Roy Orbison
“Image of a Girl” by The Safaris
“Stay” by Maurice Williams and the Zodiacs
