Day #24 of the Top 50 songs on my iTunes playlist -- ranked in reverse order by play frequency from #50 to #1 and presented here on a series of FR threads. I've been posting them here on a new thread that compiles the growing list one day at a time over the course of several months. I only post them on weekdays and may miss a day or two here and there, so this will probably be done by early November.
And to show my gratitude to the FR management for giving us all a forum to post vanity threads like this, I'll be making a contribution for the current AND next quarterly fundraisers. I would encourage everyone on these threads to do the same! :-)
Have fun with this, folks!

Not a huge CCR fan, but that’s an iconic song.
“A Whiter Shade of Pale” (1967) is the oldest one on the list. I only recognize three others.
I make no promises, but you might want to hang around until the end of this list to see if a couple of them show up. LOL.
That’s remarkable. I never even thought of how old (or new) some of these are!
Are the lists available directly, for Apple Music subscribers?
“A Whiter Shade of Pale” reached #4 on Boss Radio 93 KHJ in the early summer of 1967, and it has remained a favorite Oldie ever since.
I don’t know about Apple Music subscribers. I just use my old iTunes application on my PC and order the songs by play frequency to come up with this list.
What? No Archies?!
