My mom would have been happy with Green Onions winning, she turned that song up every time it came on. (Would have been 92 this year...Love you mom).
Hey, I think my favorite would have been "Let Me In" by The Sensations (not on the list). "I thought you were my friend.....wee-ooo, wee-ooo, ooo-wee-ooo." The lyrical theme - the party looks & sounds fabulous & why can't I go too? - is the same as Party Lights, so this is quite the pair of 62 hits. Here's something cool I just found out: both Party Lights and Let Me In were written by the very women who sang them: Claudine Clark & Yvonne Mills Baker, respectively. Very unusual for the singer, male or female, to have written the song in early 60s pop.
