Sixty years of number-one hits played in chronological order. Big whoop. Is anyone going to be excited about getting to hear Witch Doctor, Na Na Hey Hey Kiss Him Goodbye, The Night Chicago Died, Kung Fu Fighting, You Light Up My Life, Batdance, Hot In Herre, Grillz, What Do You Mean and I'm The One again? Anyway, here is the July 26 SiriusXM press release. (Note: The first Hot 100 was for the week ending August 4, 1958. Billboard's weekly charts are always dated by the ending date.)
