#1 Christmas Hits by The Supremes

50 years ago this week The Supremes were in the Top 10 getting ready to take over the #1 spot from Bobby Vinton's "Mr. Lonely" with their 3rd #1 in a row hit "Come See About Me". Six months earlier they were known as the no-hit Supremes. "Come See About Me" was #1 for Christmas 1964. Five incredible years later they would once again hold the #1 song for Christmas 1969 with "Someday We'll Be Together"; this after having charted with 8 more #1's packed in that 5 year time span before "Someday We'll Be Together" to make a record breaking 12 #1 Hits for The Supremes. The Supremes broke so many records, barriers, venues, fashion statements, & the list goes on for firsts under their belts. 

The three little black girls from the ghetto of Detroit lived a 'dreams do come true' story with, unfortunately, all taking a different path. Kudos to Mary Wilson for all she did to keep us satisfied with The Supremes after Diana Ross. It was a struggle that none of us could imagine but she did it.

I'm back from my cruise to the Bahamas. It was awesome. I'm exhausted now. Here's my Supremes fix for the day; their 2nd #1 & the biggest hit as it was #1 for 4 weeks. Even the Beatles couldn't knock them off the top with this hit. I love all of you & will be back on tomorrow to tell about my cruise, etc. Sorry WVU lost in the last 4 seconds earlier this evening.

It was 50 years ago today that The Supremes' first #1 record, "Where Did Our Love Go?" was released! They were called the No-Hit Supremes as they had 8 singles that flopped. After "Where Did Our Love Go?" The Supremes went on to have 4 more consecutive #1's--a feat yet to be matched by any American artist or group. After their 6th release (which I feel should have been #1) "Nothing But Heartaches", failed to make #1 they then came back with 4 more consecutive #1 hits. They ended up having--as most people from my generation knows--12 #1 Hits; more than any artist except for The Beatles (a British group) & Elvis Presley (an American solo male)! Such incredible memories of fantastic songs.
