For you Music lovers. This one kind of surprised me.

And now the drumroll ...

Ladies and gentlemen, the most-played song of the 20th Century, with well over 8 million performances recorded by BMI, is...

YOU’VE LOST THAT LOVIN’ FEELIN’

Performed by the Righteous Brothers, produced by Phil Spector and co-written by Spector and the husband-wife writing team of Barry Mann and Cynthia Weil, You’ve Lost That Lovin’ Feelin’ was released in December 1964 and was No. 1 on both the U.S. and British pop charts by February 1965.

It is the only song to enter the Top 10 on the British charts three separate times — in 1965, 1969 and again in 1990.

THANK YOU for posting that pic. It's the first thing that came to mind when I saw which song it was.

You are welcome. Top Gun was the first thing to come to my mind, too.

BTO's Takin' Care of Business. I swear if I hear that song one more time I'm gonna lose it. Second place would go to Sweet Home Alabama...soooo overplayed.

There's a reason why many music stores actually have a sign that reads "No Stairway to Heaven".
