Kill or Save: UK No.1 Hits of the 50s

Recommended Posts

Air hairlair. Welcome to, gosh, the FIFTEENTH edition of Kill or Save!

 

As we continue to slam through the UK charts through the decades, we arrive here: the last decade (until 2030 at least) of No.1s to sort through. Except it’s actually the first decade, for we travel back to a sepia time where the Singles Charts as we know them were born: the 1950s.

 

It was an education sorting through this list. Back then, you actually had songs tied on sales, which involved people going to actual shops and everything. And 90% of the entries were by someone “And His Orchestra”, much of which I’ve painstakingly edited out. Different times innit. Of course, you won’t be expected to know all these singles from 65+ years ago - that’d be a stretch even for our cherished player theoldlady - so you might need a little familiarisation session. Don’t worry though, it’s a much smaller list than the last game.

 

Fancy reliving all the action? See below for links to all Kill or Save games to date:

Rules here, purely for me to quote if you break them:

  • Each song starts with 20 points (whether it deserves it or not).
  • You can vote once a day. Since we all live in different parts of the world with all sorts of different timezones, please add a date at the top of your votes to avoid any confusion (e.g. Thu 25 Jul, 25/7/24, 7/25/24 if you’re a wrongun). 
  • Each day you may add up to 4 points to and subtract 6 points from any song on the board. You can split your points between as many songs as you like. You must use all six minus points (unless it’s a round-ending turn) and give at least one plus point.
  • Placeholder posts are allowed, but if you don't edit your votes within 5 minutes, then the next person can go and do their votes.
  • Consecutive votes are not allowed.
  • Before voting, please listen to the songs of each round and vote according to your own opinions, don't vote for songs because they're high/low on the board or because of your opinions about the artist, only the song matters.
  • Make  sure you copy and paste the most recent voter's scoreboard when you take your turn to score. For your own ease, ‘paste as plain text’ to get rid of the previous poster’s formatting. Then, delete their +/- scores, add yours, adjust the song’s points total and make your scores bold.

Usually, we go through 5 group stages, but the charts only began in November 1952 so there are actually only 4 groups, beginning with the No.1 hits of 1952/53, followed by a grand final consisting of the 25 songs that have qualified, where we will ultimately decide what the best chart topper of the 1950s is, and the artist(s) can smile down on all the copies of their singles that’ve been gathering dust in charity shops since your nan’s house clearance. The groups are as follows:

 

1952-53: 15 songs, 4 finalists

1954-55: 25 songs, 7 finalists

1956-57: 25 songs, 7 finalists

1958-59: 29 songs, 7 finalists

 

Should be a piece of piss, this. Anyway, time to dig out the old 12-inches. Let’s Kill or Save!

Well, I don't know about you, but I knew a grand total of three of these without the need for YouTube. Take your time to familiarise yourself (and remember we're only doing this for a laugh :D)

That's not .....

.... no, of course not.

 

I'll look at these tomorrow.  At first glance I only recognise The Song From Moulin Rouge and How Much Is That Doggie In The Window (woof woof)

I know 7 of these without recourse to YouTube so that's a few minutes to spend with a cup of coffee in the morning!

I'm one of the few here who reasonably likes late 50s/early 60s and I still think early 50s charts are an arid wasteland. Says it all really.

 

I did like the two I upvoted but not much else; the Como one and a couple of the Laines are okay, that's about it.

 

Though shame there were no No. 1s for Les Paul & Mary Ford!

I’ve given them all a listen and taken a note on which I do or do not like, the only ones I already knew were How Much Is That Doggie and You Belong To Me (and that’s only because Rick Astley has covered it). From a modern perspective I find it quite odd that two people could go to number 1 with the same song in different weeks, and out of the two versions of ‘Answer Me’ I much preferred Whitfield’s.

I've listened to all 19 of Whitfield's chart hits and wish never to hear another second of his caterwauling, but love that for you.

I will say, this is probably the weakest round, so if we're all finding at least some things we like, that's encouraging!

There are a few here that are bearable, but those that I have downvoted aren't amongst them. There are others that can count themselves lucky I didn't have more votes to use!

That's my 5 year old self, listening to Junior Choice with Ed Stewart* in the late 60s, voting for Lita Roza, if only because it might well be gone by tomorrow.

 

*For the uninitiated , a UK radio programme for kids that ran in the 60s and 70s
