Fifty years ago.  The number behind the artist is how high it got on the Billboard Top 100.  (D) means debut.

32.  CHAINED--  Marvin Gaye     Let's see?  Motown and Marvin?  Sounds like a hit to me.  I wasn't familiar with this song.   #32     However, he did somewhat better with his next song, "I Heard It Through the Grapevine."

31.  RUN TO ME--  Montanas     #121     Follow up minor hit to "You've Got To be Loved."   But very popular in Chicago.  It debuted on the WLS Top 40 on September 23 at 38, then hit #34, #1 this week, then #22, #17,  #13,  #10 and peaked at #8 on November 11.  It was really big in Chicago.
