No.1 hits (excluding instrumentals) where the title of the song is never sung? Bohemian Rhapsody, Space Oddity, Unchained Melody. Good. The Ballad of John & Yoko, The Ballad of Bonnie & Clyde. Obviously. Getting harder now. Annie’s Song, The Ketchup Song, The Hindu Times, Killer, Double Barrel. Not forgetting of course that Rod Stewart never actually sings the words “Maggie May”. And finally? Ken Boothe’s version of Everything I Own in which, unlike Bread or Boy George, he sings “Anything I own” instead. So there. Note to self: must get out more.
Can you name them?
