TOP 10 SIXTIES FLOOR-FILLERS
AS VOTED FOR BY PRO MOBILE READERS
If the Fifties was the decade that pop music as we know it was born, the Sixties was when it grew up and started thinking for itself. Revolution, experimentation and new ideas were the order of the day, and the rise of this counterculture, along with the civil rights movement, resulted in a music-buying public with more varied taste than ever before.

This variation was reflected in the results of our Pro Mobile Top Ten Sixties Floor-fillers vote! As we expected, you’ve chosen an eclectic mix of tracks drawn from a range of artists and genres. Read on to find out which tracks made the cut and discover the Top Ten Sixties Floor-fillers, as voted for by you, the readers of Pro Mobile...
Build Me Up Buttercup
The Foundations
For some, it’s a guilty pleasure, but there’s no denying that The Foundations’ 1968 classic ‘Build Me Up Buttercup’ is pop music at its best and a must-play sixties track, no matter what the event. The chord progression is simple, the brass is jubilant and its singalong chorus is one of the best in the pop music canon, showcasing the vocals of lead singer Clem Curtis and the band’s ability to imitate the Motown sound. The track’s opening bars are enough to encourage all but the ‘non-dancers’ onto the floor, and with powers like that we can see why you voted it in at number nine.
