Songs that never reached the top ten on Billboard but should have

[Truckin]

After posting on another thread about Quicksilver Messenger Service, I was surprised to read that their song "Fresh Air" only made it to number 49 on the Billboard chart. I always thought that was a cool song especially being released in 1970 during the radical days.

What are some songs that you think should have done better on the Billboard chart?

I could post all day on this subject. I'll start with just these few though:

Pinball Wizard - Who #13

It's My Life - Animals #16
San Franciscan Nights - Animals #16

A Hazy Shade of Winter - Simon & Garfunkel #34

Black Day in July - Gordon Lightfoot #17



I took the peak chart positions I listed from my handy CHUM (Toronto) reference book. I never leave home without it!
