I have been looking for a 45 since 1959, which I think may have been calledMidnight Madness, back in 1958-59. It was a piano instrumental, except for the words, "I play for you, Midnight Madness" at the begining. I have no idea who the artist was. Can you +help me?
looking for an album sound like +Jo Callington /title : Andy Ghost. / arround 1958 I listen to this on the radio and cant find anything.
#53 - "Rumble" was selected for Library of Congress (NRR) in 2008.
'Since I Met You Baby' was by Ivory Joe Hunter. Don't know the German singer.
You have data from both "That'll Be the Day" and "Maybe Baby" under both Buddy Holly and The Crickets. Since they are the same recordings that would move both songs up in the ratings.
I thought this is a list of all #1 in USA in 1958 but how come we have 100 songs on the list when the year has only 52 weeks?
You obviously didn't read the text on this page (or anywhere else on this site). This list is the 100 biggest songs of 1958 in the world (not just the US).
For example Dean Martin's version of "Volare" was a hit in Australia, the UK and Norway, while "Witch Doctor" by David Seville & The Chipmunks was only a hit in North America. That's why "Volare" (which peaked at 15 in Billboard) is above "Witch Doctor" (which got to number 1).
These two appear to be the same recording.
Tony Dallara was an Italian singer, of the late 1950s and early 1960s. Dalida (Yolanda Gigliotti) was a naturalised French singer (born in Cairo) who had hits in the 1950s, 1960s and 1970s. One was a man the other a woman. They are not the same person.
the song is pickle up a doodle by teresa brewer.
i'm not sure this is the year but i found a lot of songs that were on the same cd i had when i was little, it's a song about "we're in the army now" that's the one line i can remember. Also another song i'm trying to find is about lovebirds and it was a comedy sortof song if i can remember, i was really little at the time but i just cant find the songs.
The song you are looking for is "Won't you come out, Mary Ann" by the Quacker City Boys.
I recall arouind 1958 a female vocalist sang a song with a haunting refrain which included the phrase "you're almost in my arms...". Curious to know the title and artist if anyone knows the answer.
# 78 and # 91 (Chakachas) is the same song.
A song from my time in the army. It was played virtually none stop on the juke box on the NAFFI The line I remember "Julliet dont ever leave me".
the song i am looking for is. something about the devil courted linda out apon the villagesticks would you treat me like the devil or like other husbands do.
does anyone remember a song, possibly called marianne, or maryann, which contains a line "won't you come out to see me mary darlin', won't you come to see me maryanne".
I think it's from the late 50's.
Blue Hawaii was also a No.3 hit in Germany (Deutsche Chart Singles 1956-1980 Hit Bilanz) with 24 weeks in the charts 13 in the TOP 10.
I heard a song and never caught much of it. The words I do remember are Honey come back. Any ideas?
The song is "Start Movin' (In My Direction)" by Sal Mineo and it was a hit in 1957 reaching number 4 in Canada, number 10 in the US and number 16 in the UK.
There is only one word to describe this and that is totaly brilliant. I wish all concerned the very best of luck in the future keep up the good work.
