From Helen Reddy to Grand Funk Railroad to Paul McCartney to Stevie Wonder, here is every 1 hit from 1973 ranked.
#1 hit from 1973, 1983, 1993, 2003 and 2013 from worst to best in each respective year. Beginning today with 1973, it’ll be our largest list, clocking in at an unfathomable 27 songs. For reference, next week’s 1983 list only contains a dozen tracks. Very few hits from 1973 ruled the charts for more than a week, giving a dynamic cast of characters for our first installment. As is the case with the era these songs came from, there are a few underwhelming entries.
None of these songs are bad, though. That must be said. To score a #1 hit is an achievement that makes your career immortal in some capacity. Even one-hit-wonders have transcended musical greatness—they put in the work and got to the promised land. 1973 offered up a great mix of one-time chart-toppers and rock ‘n’ roll legends. From songs by Grand Funk Railroad to Paul McCartney & Wings to Stevie Wonder, here is every #1 hit from 1973 ranked.
I used to love Grand Funk Railroad so much, especially “Some Kind of Wonderful.” My mom gifted me one of their CDs when I was young, and I ate it up. But, I do think “We’re an American Band” is one of the worst rock ‘n’ roll anthems ever written. I mean, it’s, and, these days, that is how you can describe 90% of the songs that top the charts. But I look at this slate of #1 hits, and it’s hard to consider a world where “We’re an American Band” ranks near the top.
