As I remember, these two songs were on the top of the charts for most of the 70s

Rather uncool to like them now, but the Beatles had 27 number ones between 1962 and 1970. That is some going.

Only made number two, if I recall

A few conspiracy theories at the time about the song not being allowed to make number one due to its( possibly) anti-monarchist lyrics

Which is why I posted I believe they have been accepted by many as more than conspiracy theories good enough for me and a classic track

Seeing as we're doing Punk, I love this one. Used to do some serious pogo'ing to it back in the day. Probably never made it to Number 1, but who cares...




Update: Just looked it up on Wikipedia. Apparently it was number one in Switzerland, so as the OP didn't specify which country, it's in

One of my favourite songs, an American number one and a British number three.
