Here are the 20 greatest final Hot100 No. 1 hits of all-time
It was 50 years ago this week that the most successful group in Billboard Hot 100 history enjoyed what was essentially their chart swan song. The Beatles, band behind a still-record 20 No. 1 singles on the chart, topped the Hot 100 on June 13, 1970 for what would be the final time, with the Phil Spector-produced megaballad"The Long and Winding Road."to get to thinking about the greatest final No.
Until then, here's the top 20 we came up with: the songs that best capped some of the longest and most winding careers in Billboard Hot 100 history.At the tail end of their imperial early-'80s run, Daryl Hall & John Oates reached the Hot 100's apex for the sixth and final time with's "Out of Touch," a mid-tempo synth-soul jam of Motown-worthy melody and tenderness.
If “Let It Be” was the set-closer in the unmatched concert that was the Beatles career, this lovely, wistful Paul McCartney ballad was the encore. This was not only the Beatles’ final No. 1 hits, it was the Beatles’ final single as an active recording act. Does Phil Spector’s production lay on the syrup a little thick? Oh, probably. Now where’s that lighter? --Blondie's fourth and last No.
