Billboard year-end top 50 R&B singles of 1965

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Billboard year-end top 50 R&B singles of 1965 is the year-end chart compiled by Billboard magazine ranking the top rhythm and blues singles of 1965. The list was based on charts from the January 30 through October 30.[1]

The year's No. 1 R&B hit was "I Can't Help Myself (Sugar Pie Honey Bunch)" by the Four Tops which held the No. 1 spot for nine consecutive weeks from June 5 to July 31.

Because the list ends with the October 30 chart, it omits hit songs that peaked after October 30, including (i) Fontella Bass' "Rescue Me" which held the No. 1 spot for four consecutive weeks from October 30 to November 20, and (ii) James Brown's "I Got You (I Feel Good)" which held the No. 1 spot for four consecutive weeks from December 4 to December 25.
