Staying away from the fact that today is the day John Lennon and Yoko Ono began a public week in bed I have a couple of of other bands and songs I'd like to feature.
On this day in 1967 The Turtles began a three week run at No. 1 on the US singles chart with "Happy Together".
The second mentionable was on this day back in 1972. The band America started a three week run at No. 1 on the US singles chart with "Horse with No Name". Digging a little deeper you may find out what the common consensus was as to what the "horse" with no name represented. Either way a timeless tune I can still appreciate.
