Chubby Checker’s ‘The Twist’ Number One Again

The Twist is the only song in Rock-N-Roll history to top the Billboard charts twice in two separate years. Now, the song has gone to number one again.

This time, the song is number one on Billboard's All-Time Top 100. According to Billboard, 'The Twist' was,

Checker was invited to perform "The Twist" on "The Ed Sullivan Show" on Oct. 22, 1961, prompting a re-release of the single and a full-page ad in Billboard that proclaimed, "‘The Twist' dance rage explodes into the adult world!"
