I'm on a quest to find the absolute worst #1 ever for the Hot 100!!! So, out of the #1 hits from 1959, which is your least favorite? If you have yet to vote in 1958's poll, please do so before August 17, 2011!  |

"The Battle Of New Orleans"
Generally the year starts off pretty strong, but I'm not a fan of much after "The Happy Organ".

1959 had a lot of great #1 songs. It was hard for me to pick a least favorite out of all of them. But in the end I went with "The Happy Organ."

1974 is gonna be ridiculous There's a few early 70s sets that are particularly bad, but music that year was truly awful. I have a memory that the CHR #1s are even worse.  |

I meant because 1974 has 34 number ones, but yes that year has some pretty bad ones.

1974 is gonna be ridiculous LOL! There's just enough spaces for 1974's list of #1s. That was definitely an incredible year of #1s. The longest running #1 that was a four-way tie with all songs only lasting three weeks at #1.  |

The Three Bells makes me want to throw up.
It's hard to hate on any of these songs, though, because they did after all get to #1
