So further to another thread on here, I’ve been in the bath listening to some great 60’s tracks. You forget how good some of the music was!!

So in honour of this decade, name your top 5 hits of the sixty’s

Please list 5

I’ll start with

Sugar sugar, the Archie’s

California dreaming. mama’s and papa’s

Teach the world to sing. The new seekers

Hey Jude . the beetles

Paint it black . Rolling stones
