Throwing back to the week of February 1, 1975, we find Neil Sedaka at the top of the Billboard Hot 100 with ‘Laughter in the Rain.’ The song spent one week at #1 before dropping to #8 the following week, and then out of the top ten.
This was Sedaka’s second #1 hit, following the 1962 doo-wop hit ‘Breaking Up is Hard to Do.’ He would reach the top spot again later in 1975 with ‘Bad Blood’ (which might just show up on a future Throwback Weekend).
