Each week I feature 10 groovy tunes that reached the Top 10 on Billboard's Hot 100 chart during the last 50+ years. You can vote for your three favorites, and the five with the most votes move on to the following week when five new songs will be added to the list.
Last week Madonna was back on top with "Vogue", which received 29 votes out of the 187 cast. And this week she will be challenged by Cyndi Lauper, Bette Midler and John Travolta and Olivia Newton-John's 1978 hit, "You're the One That I Want", from the film, Grease.

What a strange assortment of music. I guess I'm gonna have to vote for Miss. Clark, Cyndi and the Divine Miss. M.
I prefer to call my taste in music "eclectic". :)
