Comment:

31. The Temptations - The Way You Do the Things You Do (#11)
This was the season of the Beatles. In the Spring of '64, they exploded on the scene. No other season of the year had as many charted hits by them in the U.S. (18 in the Billboard Top 100). The only groups that had more than one hit during that period included here (two hits given for each) were the Beach Boys (out of their 3 hits that spring), The 4 Seasons (used 2 out of their 4 for that spring), and Billy J. Kramer with The Dakotas, but Marvin Gaye & Chuck Berry had 4 hits a piece during this season, even though only one was used here for each.
