- List_of_best-selling_singles_of_the_1960s_in_the_United_Kingdom abstract "A single is a type of music release defined by the British Official Charts Company (OCC) as having no more than four tracks and not lasting longer than 25 minutes. On 31 May 2011, a retrospective record chart was broadcast on BBC Radio 2 that listed the 60 biggest-selling singles in the United Kingdom during the 1960s. The programme, entitled The Top 60 Best Selling Records of the 60s, was hosted by British DJ Tony Blackburn. The chart was compiled by the OCC, and was based on sales of singles from 1 January 1960 to 31 December 1969.The most represented act in the chart is The Beatles, who feature on the list with 18 releases, seven of which are in the top twenty. Similarly, the most represented record label is Parlophone, who released music from The Beatles between 1962 and 1968 in the UK. The most represented act after The Beatles is The Rolling Stones, who have five singles in the list. The highest-placed solo female artist is Cilla Black at number 27, with her 1964 single \"Anyone Who Had a Heart\", which was also distributed by Parlophone. Of the 60 songs in the chart, more than half are by British acts.During the 1960s, sales of singles in the UK were monitored by several magazines, including New Musical Express (NME), Record Retailer, Melody Maker and Disc. Before 1969, no officially recognised singles chart was published in the UK. Until 10 March 1960, chart compilers used the weekly chart listed by NME, after which they moved to the singles list published by Record Retailer, despite NME having the wider circulation and higher readership. During the start of the decade, Record Retailer was sampling roughly 30 stores; NME and Melody Maker had a sample size of more than one hundred. One source explains that the reason for using the Record Retailer chart for the early 1960s was that it was \"the only chart to have as many as 50 positions for almost the entire decade\". On 15 February 1969, Record Retailer and the BBC jointly commissioned the British Market Research Bureau (BMRB) to record sales of singles in what officially became the UK Singles Chart. The BMRB compiled the chart by using hand-written and post-submitted data from approximately 250 record stores.Between 1960 and 1969, fourteen singles sold more than one million copies in the UK, of which the biggest-selling was \"She Loves You\" by The Beatles. Released on 23 August 1963, the single spent six weeks at number one and sold more than 1.89 million copies, approximately 140,000 more than its nearest rival, \"I Want to Hold Your Hand\", also by The Beatles. The biggest-selling record not to top the UK Singles Chart was Acker Bilk's 1961 instrumental \"Stranger on the Shore\" – it sold more than 1.13 million copies and peaked at number two, being kept off the top by \"The Young Ones\" by Cliff Richard and The Shadows.".
