Tom Breihan over at Stereogum has been running a column about all the Number One songs on Billboard’s Hot 100 chart since its inception in 1958. (It’s great—you should check it out.) I decided to use each song as a writing prompt for myself.
Woo fails
and the chorus
coos in assent
as our Ricky tries
but loses the number
loses the plot
loses his heart
to those carefree devil eyes
