When AL last did "'60s Chartbusters" -- August 2010.

quite a lineup of tunes, if the list on Wikipedia is correct.

Damn, Fogheads (some of whom are otherwise smart) are making this whole thing needlessly complicated ("What is she doing? Leap-Grammys? WHAT??")  Good gawd almighty.

I do understand the "off-by-one" confusion... i.e. "I Want To Hold Your Hand" may have been nominated for an award in 1965, but I will forever associate the song as being from 1964.

The Grammys ahev always had that problem because their eligibility calendar has often run from September to September or something equally ridiculous.

and Tim was right -- we're talking year of release. so on Wiki's list, go '61... '65... etc.

The Grammys were totally out of sync with the times back then.  I think this is a good song, but 1964 was shaking and quaking!

True, although for the Grammys, this was relatively hip!

Awfully easy listening on the 10at10 today. I know the song choices are "beyond her control", but sheesh.
