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 Petula Clark reclaimed the top spot once again with "Downtown", which received 36 votes out of the 164 cast. And this week she will be challenged by Madonna, Spandau Ballet and the Carpenters.
