"Stop! In the Name of Love" was written and produced by Motown’s main
production team Holland–Dozier–Holland. It held the number one position
on the Billboard pop singles chart from March 27, 1965 through April 3,
1965, and reached the number-two position on the soul chart.

The song "Honey," also known as "Honey (I Miss You)," was written by
Bobby Russell. He first produced it with former Kingston Trio member
Bob Shane. Then he gave it to singer Bobby Goldsboro, who recorded
it for his 1968 album of the same name. It spent five weeks at No. 1 the
Billboard Hot 100 Singles Chart, from April 7 to May 11 (the 200th song
to do so), and three weeks atop Billboard’s Hot Country Singles chart. It
was Goldsboro’s only No. 1 hit on the Pop Singles and Country Singles
charts and it was his first song to top the Adult Contemporary chart. The
single was ranked the No. 3 song for 1968 by Billboard.

Bobby Goldsboro turned 75 on January 18.

"We Can Work It Out" was the last of six number one singles in a row on the
charts, a record at the time. The Beatles recorded the song on 20 October
1965, four days after its accompanying single track, with an overdub session
on 29 October. They spent nearly 11 hours on the song, by far the longest
expenditure of studio time up to that point.

Croce wrote the lyrics for "Time in a Bottle" after his wife Ingrid told him she was 
pregnant with his son, Adrian, in December 1970. It became his second and 
final No. 1 hit.

The song "December, 1963 (Oh, What a Night)" hit number one on the UK
Singles Chart on February 21, 1976 and went to number one on the U.S.
Billboard Hot 100 on March 13, 1976, remaining in the top spot for three
weeks and also spent one week on Cash Box. Billboard ranked it as the
No. 4 song for 1976.
