Top 100 Songs of 1967: The Year-End Chart

“To Sir With Love” by Lulu was the biggest hit of 1967, finishing at No. 1 on the year-end Top 100 ahead of “The Letter” by The Box Tops and “Ode To Billie Joe” by Bobby Gentry. The year-end chart ranks the songs that performed best across the whole year, not just in a single week.

15 acts placed more than one song on the list, led by The Monkees (4), The Young Rascals (3), Aretha Franklin (3), The Buckinghams (3), The Supremes (3). None of the 100 songs was on the 1966 year-end list.

The 1960s: the sound of the era

The 1960s charts swing from teen idols and girl groups to Motown's hit factory, surf music and, from 1964, the British Invasion led by the Beatles. By the end of the decade soul, folk-rock and psychedelia were all landing in the year-end Top 100, often side by side.
