John Prine’s rendition of "My Old Kentucky Home, Goodnight" is a tender, deeply personal acoustic cover of the historic 19th-century American ballad. April 2020 following John Prine’s tragic passing from COVID-19 complications. Kentucky Governor Andy Beshear used Prine's recording of "My Old Kentucky Home" as the official soundtrack for a statewide tribute video. Citizens across Kentucky lit their homes green in honor of Prine and the victims of the pandemic, turning his gentle cover into a powerful symbol of regional mourning and resilience.

The Edgar Winter Group's synth-and-sax heavy rock instrumental "Frankenstein" sat at #4 but was gaining rapid momentum to take the #1 crown the very next week. My 17th, 1973.

The very first number-one song on the Easy Listening chart was "Boll Weevil Song" by Brook Benton, 1961. The chart was introduced without any special editorial mention, quietly appearing next to the Hot 100 as a 20-position survey.

"Mellow Yellow" is one of Donovan's most famous and misinterpreted songs. I promised another popular theory: is that the title refers to Donovan’s bout with hepatitis in early 1966, which left him jaundiced. Ultimately, Donovan describes the song as being about his own "mellow" and laid-back demeanor, which he achieved through meditation rather than drugs.
