Applause for Lycanthropy?
3500. Clap for the Wolfman - The Guess Who
3499. Can't Get Enough of Your Love, Babe - Barry White
3498. Please Come to Boston - Dave Loggins
3497. Rikki Don't Lose That Number - Steely Dan
3496. Cleanin' Out My Closet - Eminem
3495. San Antonio Rose - Floyd Cramer
3494. Mr. Lee - The Bobbettes
3493. 3 A. M. Eternal - The KLF
3492. I Go to Pieces - Peter & Gordon
3491. Dream Baby (How Long Must I Dream) - Roy Orbison
Once again, out of nowhere, we get a bunch that don't seem to belong this low. Beginning with 3500 (you may not love it, but it got a ton of play) and Del Shannon's P&G song (same) and 3499 (a classic Barry White). 3498 seemed inescapable when it came out, so surprised it's this low. 3497 was one of Steely Dan's bigger hits to my mind, so surprised it's here. While I was one when 3494 was released, its oldies play caused me to expect it higher as well. And almost anything by Orbison should be higher than this in a just universe!

3500. Kind of TIWBH (and... novelty?)
3499. Totally TIWBH, way higher
3498. Really TIWBH (and a great, if misunderstood, song)
3497. Yep, TIWBH, I do think they were DJ more than record buyer favorites but this was evrywhere at the time
3496. Sounds like an Eminem song...... hated it.
3495. The bloom is off this rose
3494. Didn't know this but I like.
3493. What the?
3492. Don't remember but pretty good
3491. Of course the Royster should be higher (but I'm not surprised this is here)
