50. 15 FLOP SONGS from the 60s That Turned Into HITS

The 1960s were a wild decade of musical experiments, radio rebels, and unlikely chart comebacks. In this video, we’re counting down 10 flop songs from the 60s that unexpectedly turned into massive hits—tracks that were ignored, forgotten, or even laughed at when they first appeared. Some were dismissed by record labels, others were buried on B-sides, and a few were saved only because a DJ somewhere decided to take a chance. And in the surprising world of retro music, even a track written off as a failure can rise again and rewrite history.

From garage rock anthems to soulful ballads and psychedelic curiosities, these songs prove one powerful truth: sometimes the public chooses the hits, not the industry. You may even discover that a few of these “flops turned hits” later became one hit wonder classics—beloved, unforgettable, and forever tied to a single shining moment. Whether you grew up in this era or you're exploring it for the first time, these stories of redemption will take you back to the golden age of vinyl.

This countdown highlights the twists of fate behind every comeback: the unexpected radio push, the TV appearance no one saw coming, the cult fanbase that refused to let a song die. Each one reminds us why the 60s remain one of the most unpredictable and exciting chapters in music history. If you love discovering the hidden tales behind every one hit wonder, the flops that later dominated the charts, and the legends who never gave up, then this video is for you.
