Actually pop music is making a big come back since the pandemic. There are many talented singers today (also a lot of trash) but the ones that are good, they have amazing songs that will make me say things like “music of my time was real music, back when you had to have actual talent to sing” in about 30-50 years (if I’m alive then hopefully) I can already guarantee you 😂 We all want to believe that the music we grew up with will never be surpassed, that we’ve already heard the best there could be. Nostalgia has something to do with it as well. All of that aside, the songs in this compilation are obviously all bangers and those people had some gifted musical abilities. Every era has great songs, some more than others. I guess what I’m trying to say is we can’t really compare since it’s all subjective in the end.

If we're talking sales, acccording to the Billboard Top 100 for 1966, the Beatles had four songs in the list. We Can Work it Out was their top song coming in at #49. The other songs were Nowhere Man, Paperback Writer and Yellow Submarine.
@itslikethesamebutdifferent8020 We Can Work it Out was released in December 1965, becoming a hit in 1966. Nowhere Man was recorded in 1965, but was released in the United States in February 1966.
My God!! What a myriad of sound! I will always say that the 1960s and 1970s AM and FM radio airwaves were full of amazing music brought to us by an amazing variety of artists and groups that refused to be pigeonholed! 👍💪✌️
Jr in High School and just got my DL. Living in the SFV of LA and Paint it Black always makes me think of my ‘65 GTO driving on Lassen St, approaching Reseda Bl in Northridge
Add in Paperback Writer/Rain, Summer in the City, All Or Nothing, Substitute, Sunny Afternoon, and Eight Miles High, and you've got an amazing year of music.
AS A LITTLE BOY, MY MOTHER BOUGHT ME A TRANSISTER RADIO AND I WOULD LISTEN TO THESE SONGS OVER AND OVER AGAIN. I EVEN LEARNED HOW TO PLAY GUITAR AND I WOULD PLAY THESE SONGS. MEMORIES.......
Amazing songs ...thankyou for reminding me of a wonderful time and how lucky I was growing up with all of these fab songs and bands ahead of Thier time 🏴👍💐👩❤️💋👨🙏
I was born in 1966 and I approve of this too 10 list. Every song is banger and I still listen to all of them to this day, 58 years later😃Amazing bunch of music!
❤❤❤❤ I was 8yrs old and continue to love to this day all these beats. While I moved with the grooves of successive decades and still keep up to date it's the 60s - 80s music that leaves the greatest impression. Heck, I watched on Australian TV and enjoyed Woodstock as a 10yr old.
I listened to this great music on my little transistor radio and was humored through the years with stereo upgrades to learn I had most of the words wrong. It was like learning the songs all over again. Still love them today on my Bluetooth speakers ❤❤❤❤
I came forth from my mother's womb in December of 1966! I have never regretted being born in that time and space. Such great music, so many beautiful songs. Some of the greatest of my generation.
Loved this music, REAL music, in 1966 when I graduated high school in California and I love it just as much now if not more. I get chills when I hear it and still know most of the words ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
I saw Percy Sledge sing "When A Man Loves A Woman" many times at the Pelican Club in Vinton, LA. He was a fabulous singer and a very nice man. Those were the days when we had some great music.
Was 16 yrs old and life was great! We had so many different styles of music, and not a swear word ever said! Songs were mainly about life and love, now at 74 yrs old it is hard to tell what they are trying to say!
I was also 11. My folks got me a transistor radio for my birthday with one ear phone AND the deluxe leatherette carrying case with handy shoulder strap! I listened to WLS and WCFL in Chicago.
I was 11. Slept with transistor radio under my pillow listening to krla los Angeles!!! Grew up to work in the industry. Worked as a backing vocalist , contractor and arranger with Stevie Wonder, the supremes, Elton John, Herbie Hancock, Colin Bluestone, Nigel Olsson, Al Jarreau, etc ... really grateful for the gift of music.
I'm right there with you guys I always loved the music I'm just curious if you guys have heard of Angelina Jordan an 18 year old singer living in LA she won Norway got talent 10 years ago check her out and tell me what you think I'd really like to know.
All of them great great songs. 1966 was a great year for some mammoth hits to groove on. Before major hippiedom came out and after all the Beachy music of the previous years. What memories in my 8 year old mind!
Ya the 60s&70s were the best for music.. but there are some bands today that are awesome like disturbed system of a down Volbeat etc..the equipment today blows away the equipment back then.
@@anthonylove5275 Yeah but the equipment and tech is used more often to try to cover lack of talent than it is as an additional toy/possibility for talent to experiment with. It's a mix of things but profit over art and the difficulty level of struggling it out as a starving artist long enough to break out when all the revenue streams are crap for the actual artists these days are the most pressing factors, imo. If you can't be a starving artist, you can't become a rich one unless you are from money and trust fund kids make trash art.
@@anthonylove5275 They have better equipment but still end up with a worse sound. Most bands today just slap a bunch of reverb, the amount doesn't matter because again, they don't care about sound design, and they call it a day.
80s was the best decade for art, music, fashion, fads and vehicles. Been around since 1958 so Ive seen a good bit and listened to even more. Was very fortunate to see both Stevie Ray Vaughn and Harry Chapin(not together) in 1979 just a couple years before they both left us way too soon!
Always the way. 1966 was only 10-11 years after Rock n' Roll and R & B blew up. Things were still very fresh and new ideas came out all the time. Eventually, everything got stale. Plus, the money dried up. People who might have been writing got songs in 1966 have to work a straight job to survive today.
The 60s were the best. If we get to chose our Heaven, I'm going to be in the 60s in Gresham, Oregon! These 10 songs are just a few of what was great back then. Music was changing, it was amazing!
you can do a top 100 for any year 1960to1975 and some one will come and say "what about "XXXXX" and you say oh god yes i wonder how many of todays songs will still be remembered 60 years from now? prob not many as we had to OWN the music growing up
At 10 years old every one of these are hard hitting and hardwired into my heart ❤️ forever. As strong now as then. Music will never be as good as it was from 1965 to 1975 .
'Think I'm going back' ( Carole King, later The Byrds ) this time I must reduce me practice electric guitar volume on the Fender Amp. Next door neighbor gave me 45 rpm of 'Good Vibrations .'

Love the music of the 60's also i was born in 66 so these songs hold a special place in my heart Still listening to this music 58 years later. The music from 50's thru the 90's is still in my humble opinion is what music should be. Not the auto tuned BS spewing out now. Its really sad that the industry has no soul anymore. Having heard musicians that are ignored by the industry that are really amazing. Thanks to tictok & social media I have hope for the new artists that have not bowed down to the autotuned wave and have stayed true to their musical standards So heres to CZcams, Tictok & other platforms that are have given those newer indapendent groups, & artists a platform for the music we need! Go give these new artists a listen you will not be disappointed! Im positive you will find that music is not all auto tuned BS and you will find awesome people who still love real music! And you will find music that is absolutely amazing! One band in particular that I follow is Last Days of War its a bit heavy but great. Also whatever music you're into you can find a new band that suits your style 😉
Still listen 58 years after!meanwhile i can't find not even one song to make a top ten 58 years later from now! Nobody will remember the 2024 songs! But i'm sure they will remember the 1966 songs!! 😢
when music had heart and soul; regardless of the genre, or style...
Still worth listening to
58 years later!!
Yes....👍My birth year 😁
@@luisbohorquez7096 Mine too
Yes I agree year I was born 💙
Agree !
so varied and all good. still.
These songs are still popular! My 23 year and his friends knows them all to this day! Nothing like the 60s and 70s, real music!!
I remember all these songs! I was 10 years old and my older brothers listened to them! It was a wonderful era - love the music! 💜
I feel like everyone who had a childhood before modern social media has heard all of these. Back when we had a cohesive culture.
Music was so good back then.
60-70s, the best
When people could actually sing !
You ain't never lie!!!!

Heard him perform 2X live in 1986 ~ classic.
One of the best without question
Was 13 in 1960 so all 60's songs are clear in my mind. What a time to be alive. Am 77 now but still love them all! John, UK.
Me too. Perfect timing.
ICONIC music! Every one of these songs are still great after all these years. I was only 4 yrs old but I know & love every one of them.
All great songs !!!
No beatles for the year 66? Its imposible
He doesn’t like the Beatles. He made a list of the most iconic bands of the 60s and left the Beatles out on purpose.
Because if this list was accurate, about half of it would be Beatles
If we're talking sales, acccording to the Billboard Top 100 for 1966, the Beatles had four songs in the list. We Can Work it Out was their top song coming in at #49. The other songs were Nowhere Man, Paperback Writer and Yellow Submarine.

16 and already entranced with music. Light My Fire, 1967, I was hooked. I immediately changed colleges and moved to San Francisco. 🎵🍄
Funny how music can do that. I heard Are You Going to San Francisco and that was it for me.. I dropped out of high school and headed for Frisco.
@@valeriebrophy8384 San Fransico was real popular back then and beautiful. Look at it now, smh.

1966 was a great year for music. Name the top hits of 2023. It's almost laughable the music today.
hey, I'm not a fan either, but you never know what people will be nostalgic for in 6 decades.

Loved this bought back some lovely memories ..So many good songs in the 60s
Always felt Good Vibrations was an absolute masterpiece.
It certainly was! If you don't already know the story of its creation you should learn it. Impressive!
Best masterpiece ever: good vibrations
Beatles must have been a bit jealous of the Beach Boys. So made Sgt Peppers Heart Club Band for the next year.
It was so unusual. It really started a new sound in music. Genius.
The royalbavarian...Me too . I've seen it performed live 20 times between the BEACH BOYS and Brian Wilson's band .
Wow! A year of great music that has lasted and still heard today.
The song excerpts are too short! Give each one at least ten seconds.
No grunge music lasted. Grunge was the worst music ever!
I came forth from my mother's womb in December of 1966!

"Eight miles high" the Byrds!!! The legacy and influence is immeasurable!❤❤❤

Im a believer should be at number one It was a huge hit. I think the minkees outsold the beatles on that one
That is a great set of songs
Every one of em a banger!
Each one different from the last.
No auto tune
I still listen to this music and I am 71 years old and I Love it 🥰
Honorable mentions
"Eight Miles High" - the Byrds
"River Deep, Mountain High" - Tina Turner (solo debut single)
I just sent this to a buddy of mine who used to be Brian Wilson's personal assistant, he'll dig it!
Eight Miles High, one of favorites from the 60s, I was 11 years old and the music of those days was magic.

5 - 6 in '66
Was sweet 16. Also Sounds of Silence, Summer in the City, Eleanor Rigby and Yellow Submarine.
The summer of '66 I left home @ 17. Those were the days my friend. We truly thought they'd never end.

Still listen 58 years after!meanwhile i can't find not even one song to make a top ten 58 years later from now! Nobody will remember the 2024 songs! But i'm sure they will remember the 1966 songs!! 😢
I loved the 60's. Best years of my life.❤❤❤
You could sing along to all these songs! Love them all ❤❤❤❤
Excellent !Merci!😊
Not one Beatles song in the bunch. Still, what a great collection of music!
GOOD VIBRATIONS ❤❤❤❤
