    It was a dark day for fans of rock music on August 9, 1975, as the Bee Gees' "Jive Talkin'" would be announced as the no. 1 song on the Hot 100.

These are those tracks.

A definite anthem against co-dependence and lesser than significant others, this New York native's forthcoming release, which is due out in September, will undboutedly double her already massive following.
