It was a super underrated year, in my opinion. And with so much good music hitting the airwaves, more than a few stellar songs released that year have fallen through the cracks. If you\u2019ve never heard of the following forgotten songs from 1964, or perhaps you\u2019ve heard them but forgotten them, let\u2019s take a walk down memory lane. These are some real pop classics from the era!<\/p>\n<p>            \u201c(Just Like) Romeo And Juliet\u201d by The Reflections<\/p>\n<p>This doo-wop classic came out in February 1964. And it hit the Top 10 on the Billboard Hot 100 almost immediately. In addition to being a solid song of its time, \u201c(Just Like) Romeo And Juliet\u201d by The Reflections is considered by many music historians to be one of the last doo-wop songs to chart as the British Invasion era of music took off.<\/p>\n<p>If this song sounds familiar but the original version doesn\u2019t ring a bell, you\u2019ve probably heard one of the many covers of \u201c(Just Like) Romeo And Juliet\u201d. Michael And The Messengers, Sha Na Na, Mental As Anything, and The Outsiders all recorded their own versions of the song through the years.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBaby I Need Your Loving\u201d by Four Tops<\/p>\n<p>Ah, some classic 60s pop. This 1964 hit from The Four Tops was released by Motown in July of that year. It was Four Tops\u2019 first Top 20 hit and their first single with Motown. And it\u2019s no surprise the track made it all the way to No. 11 on the Hot 100 chart. That beat is so addictive, and \u201cBaby I Need Your Loving\u201d is like a time capsule of the era. Johnny Rivers also released a version of this tune in 1967, among other musicians.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cCan\u2019t You See That She\u2019s Mine\u201d by The Dave Clark Five<\/p>\n<p>The Dave Clark Five had a good year in 1964. Their success was spurred on by the release of \u201cCan\u2019t You See That She\u2019s Mine\u201d in May. This beat classic makes it to our list of forgotten songs from 1964, and I think it\u2019s quite an underrated tracks. Though, it wasn\u2019t exactly underrated at the time. This tune made it all the way to No. 4 on the Hot 100 that year, and did similarly well in Canada. It\u2019s a groovy little rock song that anyone would love.<\/p>\n<p>Photo by Dezo Hoffman\/Shutterstock<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Way too much good music came out in 1964.
