SickTangerine Posted January 8, 2011 Share Posted January 8, 2011 In the US it was the sountrack for Pocahontas ( ) and in the UK it was Bon Jovi - These Days. In my home of Canada it was HIStory: Past, Present and Future, Book I by MJ. Meh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kiwi_Zep_Fan87 Posted January 8, 2011 Share Posted January 8, 2011 Well, as per New Zealand records, it was "Faith" by George Michael! Oh and out of interest, in the U.K, it was "Now That's What I Call Music : Volume 10" and in the U.S, it was apparently the soundtrack of the film "Dirty Dancing" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

missytootsweet Posted January 9, 2011 Share Posted January 9, 2011 I have a book on Billboard Top 100 hits (singles) so those songs were easy to locate. Top Five Billboard Week ending Sept.18, 1961 1. Take Good Care of my Baby (Boobby Vee) 2. Michael (Highwaymen) 3. My True Story (Jive Five) 4. (Marie's the Name) His Latest Flame (Elvis Presley) 5. Crying (Roy Orbison) I couldn't find the #1 album. I thought it was Blue Hawaii, but that was released in October 1961 . So probably whatever preceded that record.
