Back to That Amazing April 4, 1964, Billboard Beatles Chart-- Part 1

From Billboard.

The number 1 song, "Can't Buy Me Love" had jumped from #26 to #1.    That was the record jump by an artist until Kelly Clarkson's "A Moment Like This" jumped from #52 to #1 in 2002.  Then, her "My Life Would Suck Without You" jumped from #97 to #1 in 2009.

Besides the Top Five 5 songs, all by the Beatles (check the Beatles or Beatlemania labels to find out the Top Five), the rest of the Top Ten was:

#6, "SUSPICION"  by Terry Stafford,
#7.  "HELLO DOLLY" by Louis Armstrong,
#8.  "SHOOP SHOOP SONG" by Betty Everett,  
#9.  "MY HEART BELONGS ONLY TO YOU" by Bobby Vinton
#10.  GLAD ALL OVER"  by the Dave Clark Five.
