I turned 10 years old on March 5th 1967 and can sing all these songs along with the artists. Only I still can't sing in tune! some things never change!!
And the start of the end of the 1960s - much like the end of the Mid-60s, 1966: Jim Reeves 'Distant Drums', Snatter's 'Strangers In The Night', the Beatles 'Yellow Submarine' etc - was all .. erm Smooch, Waltz, and Pop. The 1960s .. as it was. Lovely stuff.
'67 I joined the Navy. '69 was Nam. The last night in the Philippines the band played San Francisco, and we went kinda wild. Finally headed home. GOD BLESS the United States of America🇺🇸
I was a 15 and thought that we would show the older generation how to make the world a better place, with peace and love, instead of war. Unfortunately, the world showed me how naïve I was.
Old times are not forgotten happy to be around in the whole of the sixties until now 2021 covid is a pest but I guess we have to have it cos we had the best music ,and I'd like to thank Chris and Pam when I was in Blackpool I loved them both and still miss their laughs
Exactamente...el MEJOR año del gran Engelbert Humperdick King of Hearts 🇬🇧👌 God bless you EH Forever....desde que compre el LP Reléase Me en 1969 mi familia y yo somos Fans del Gran Crooner Engelbert Humperdick...👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏🙏
Around the corner we had then Tomorrow never knows, she said she said, Rain, Strawberry fields forever, Dear Peudence and many more. It shows how a big deal were Beatles for music evolution.
In those days, San Francisco's Tenderloin District was clean and night life was relatively low key. "The Last Waltz" was a very popular "Closing TIme" song played on the juke boxes.
I was around then and what a great time it was the summer of love alright !!! I thought that San Francisco should have number one as that was the upfront song of the flower power era god if only you could turn back time them was the days when it was really great to be young and alive
Not a Beatles fan! Love Frank not a Nancy fan. Cute song tho. Bee Gees the best Trio that ever walked the planet. Nobody can hold a candle to them. Period! Loved the Monkees. So entertaining. Great music. Englebert great singer. Extremely underrated! P. H. Whiter shade of pale. Fantastic song!
It just goes to show how much the mums and dad’s generation were still buying records then, especially if it had a strong melody, I was 20-21 in 67 and there was no way you would consider buying Humperdinck records, not when you had music like Arnold Laine or See Emily Play by Pink Floyd as an example. There were so much good progressive music coming out in 67, you were spoilt for choice.
The song San Francisco gave the Bee Gees the idea for Massachusetts. There were TONS of big hits in '67 but Light My Fire should have been included over at least one of Humperdincks songs. The biggest selling record for '67 was LuLus To Sir With Love. Sold over 8million records.
So this was the legendary Summer of Love mirrored in the UK charts. No "Light My Fire" by the Doors, no Jefferson Airplane, just Scott McKenzie's "San Francisco" on #3. Only one Beatles anthem "All You Need Is Love" made it just to #10 - in the year when they released their "Sergeant Pepper" album. But who dominated the Summer of Love with three songs on #5, #2, and #1? - Engelbert the Hump. The truth hurts.
Englebert had the advantage of appealing to a wide age range of singles buyers , especially those with money compared to those who could only afford to listen to the radio
said truth being that it's often the pop songs that endure, and to be honest I'd still rather listen to the 5th Dimension sing about their beautiful balloon than anything by the Doors. Popularity is fickle, though; look at Seals and Croft, huge a couple of years later , yet like the 5th Dimension, all but forgotten now.
Procol Harrum the song of the 60s imo.. Absolutely loved it and still do. Scott Mackenzie ushered in the flower power era.. Humperxink etc just not cool. Migrated towards Cream, Chicken Shack, etc the more progressive bands then..
Humperdinck at nr 1? Hate this guy. Made my sister happy though.A good thing young people nowadays do know THE BEATLES but never heard of Humpie ! If only the number 1 spot were given to THE BEE GEES' wonderful ballad MASSACHUSETTS.

Those were the days so happy.......
Proud to have been born in 1967 - the best year EVER for popular music!
Engelbert best balladeer ever
The 2 greatest drift along on a summer's day songs ever written. A whiter shade of pale and San Fransisco.
I was 32 in ‘67 living in Jersey. The time of my life.
I grow up with all this lovely songs thank you for sharing ❤️
You're welcome 😊
Immortal "A Whiter Shade of Pale, Procol Harum". Thanks.
❤❤❤❤ best times ever
And the start of the end of the 1960s - much like the end of the Mid-60s, 1966: Jim Reeves 'Distant Drums', Snatter's 'Strangers In The Night', the Beatles 'Yellow Submarine' etc - was all .. erm Smooch, Waltz, and Pop. The 1960s .. as it was. Lovely stuff.
Old time-good time and fantastic music for all time!
'67 I joined the Navy. '69 was Nam. The last night in the Philippines the band played San Francisco, and we went kinda wild. Finally headed home. GOD BLESS the United States of America🇺🇸
Humpty and Tommy still standing. What great entertainers. Superb artists and human beings.
Unfortunately i never got to San Francisco nor did i put flowers in my hair.
17 years old, footloose and fancy free,. Those were the days.
oh yes ,i remember them well!
Aka Jan mckew, those were the days, luv the way this put together, such Happy Times 😁 ♥ xx
The year of The Hump. Some good tunes there.
Always notice to have a nice tune after a hump.
The 60's were an amazing decade to be a teenager the music was so diverse
Frank Sinatra and his daughter wonderful
I have to admit after listening to the top 10 of each year that the year 1967 beats them all
❤😂🎉😢😮😅😊Great Voice
Awesome brilliant oldies thanks for this song awesome
Engelbert ruled!
Did he,
@@normanmorgan1596 yes he did
I was a 15 and thought that we would show the older generation how to make the world a better place, with peace and love, instead of war. Unfortunately, the world showed me how naïve I was.
Not your fault, our leaders leave a lot to be desired. My dad always said don’t vote in only encourages them.
Ah ! 67, the summer of love, didn't see much love around the place, But the music was great.
Old times are not forgotten happy to be around in the whole of the sixties until now 2021 covid is a pest but I guess we have to have it cos we had the best music ,and I'd like to thank Chris and Pam when I was in Blackpool I loved them both and still miss their laughs
The year I was born. Lovely songs. I'm just a born too late hippie.
Beautiful Sandie Shaw, a time when we have Eurovision winners.
Yes ilove Sandy Shaw
Bee Gees massachusset woderful song
Wonderful hits with great singers and groups. I wish however that we could hear the whole songs and not just a snippet.
Exactamente...el MEJOR año del gran Engelbert Humperdick King of Hearts 🇬🇧👌
God bless you EH Forever....desde que compre el LP Reléase Me en 1969 mi familia y yo somos Fans del Gran Crooner Engelbert Humperdick...👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏🙏
Release Me, forever immortalized as the single that kept Penny Lane/Strawberry Fields Forever off the number one spot.
Around the corner we had then Tomorrow never knows, she said she said, Rain, Strawberry fields forever, Dear Peudence and many more. It shows how a big deal were Beatles for music evolution.
7Korat I never cared for the Beatles They got played a lot anf other marvellous groups and singers were pushed out.
In those days, San Francisco's Tenderloin District was clean and night life was relatively low key. "The Last Waltz" was a very popular "Closing TIme" song played on the juke boxes.
A life time ago,sad that old friends have gone,still this brings it all back.I think you know what I mean.
@ Arthur Granville: I certainly do, Arthur.
Totally
Quite a bit different from our top songs here in Canada and the US....enjoyed them....Procol Harem being my favourite! 😊🇨🇦
This is terrific. thanks.
I was around then and what a great time it was the summer of love alright !!!
I thought that San Francisco should have number one as that was the upfront song of the flower power era god if only you could turn back time them was the days when it was really great to be young and alive
Possibly one of the greatest pop songs ever.
I always thought that Scott Mackenzie had the sweetest voice
Not a Beatles fan!
Love Frank not a Nancy fan. Cute song tho.
Bee Gees the best Trio that ever walked the planet. Nobody can hold a candle to them. Period!
Loved the Monkees. So entertaining. Great music.
Englebert great singer. Extremely underrated!
P. H. Whiter shade of pale. Fantastic song!
The Bee Gees sucked, I always hated that band, and really hated disco music. to each their own I guess.
Well that's what you get for being an outstanding Elvis fan you just have to wait for the next Beatles album. But Elvis was Much Better.
The year I met my husband. I was 13y/o.

Bei den Bee Gees hätte ich gerne gewusst, wie sie als 5-Mann Band ohne Orchester Brimborium geklungen hätten

Worst year of my life. Only 6 but lost my mum to cancer. She was 39.
❤😂🎉😢😮😅😊I I was13 yars old
❤😂🎉The Best
Give me a Time Machine
OD'd a bit on Engelbert on this one. Expected Traffic, Pink Floyd and The Small Faces to make an appearance.Still gave it the thumbs up though.
Obviously everybody's mums were buying the records in '67!
Procol Harrum the song of the 60s imo.. Absolutely loved it and still do. Scott Mackenzie ushered in the flower power era.. Humperxink etc just not cool. Migrated towards Cream, Chicken Shack, etc the more progressive bands then..
A tad too much Englebert for me, but overall a great year
Why was there no picture of Scott mckensie when lets go to San Francisco came on
BOY 1967 IN THE UK SURE BELONGED TO ENGELBERT.
And Georgy Girl by The Seekers?
Were Frank and Nancy Sinatra in the same studio when Something Stupid was being recorded?
1967 mes 17 ans yellow submarine wonderful
No comment
Certainly "something stupid" if you try making it with daughter Frank 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
1966 TIJD BIJ DE MARINE - BOVESSE en BREYDEL M906 en M909
The only song that I heard by Sandie Shaw was "Girl Don't Come"
A much better showcase for her than "Puppet on a String."
What about There's Always Something There To Remind Me, Long Live Love, I'll Stop At Nothing.
The year of my birth
Good old Frank and Nancy, with their song almost making incest look ok.... 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
These are a personal choice?
Song list taken from; www.uk-charts.top-source.info/top-100-1967.shtml
Золотой фонд
Don’t know that to say to that
3 songs by Engelbert but none by the Stones, the Who, the Kinks, the Beach Boys, the Doors, and especially my all-time favourites, the Moody Blues?
Humperdinck at nr 1? Hate this guy. Made my sister happy though.A good thing young people nowadays do know THE BEATLES but never heard of Humpie ! If only the number 1 spot were given to THE BEE GEES' wonderful ballad MASSACHUSETTS.
Engelfuckingbert forever!
Gee, with those lyrics it most alarming to learn Frank and Nancy are dad and daughter ! 🥺😳🤮☻
MOSTLY BORING SONGS.FEW GOOD ONES.😝😝😝😝
Rather disgusted in fact.
