Last year I did a deep dive into the very short career of Jim Croce, and one of the discoveries that stuck with me is that his ‘Time in a Bottle’ was the third posthumous single to reach #1 on the Hot 100.
Naturally, that had me wondering which other songs had done so before and after Croce’s. It turns out there are nine of them, and I’ll spend this week writing about the ones I haven’t already featured.
