Want to rep the Connie Francis song that is on this list and probably won't be anyone's #1 as a great, cool modern piece of pop. Should've been a hit. https://youtu.be/yvq6_GXp1js

Suitably wide spread!

Kinda pleased Leader of the Pack didn't get a vote

Should do a "Grand Final" with tv he top five against "Be My Baby"

Remarkable that "Train from Kansas City" was only a b-side

Also, only one vote for the Ronettes!

("I can hear music" is Beach Boys, c'mon)

Doesn't really seem like there were enough votes to go around.

I actually questioned whether my impulse not to vote for "Leader of the Pack" was just song fatigue. It's an absolutely amazing song.

Introducing Be My Baby again could be interesting.

All of her work with the Ronettes is amazing, but you'd just listen to their greatest hits and then find other artists standout songs to vote for.

It's probably been spoiled for me by a stupid ad from when I was a kid ("That's when I fell for/the Cadbury Pinky Bar")
