The best-selling rock song of 1950s!

#top10songs #rocklegends #1950s 12 songs that defined the sound of the 1950s — and almost none of them were supposed to be hits. From Chuck Berry's Maybellene to Bill Haley's Rock Around the Clock, these are the true, verified stories behind the decade's best-selling rock and roll records: the rejections, the accidents, the fifteen-minute rewrites, and the tragedy hiding behind the biggest song of them all. Number 1 alone sold past 25 million copies — and the man who wrote its most famous guitar solo never lived to hear it played. In this video: Maybellene (Chuck Berry), At the Hop (Danny & the Juniors), La Bamba / Donna (Ritchie Valens), That'll Be the Day (Buddy Holly), Tutti Frutti (Little Richard), Heartbreak Hotel (Elvis Presley), Diana (Paul Anka), Great Balls of Fire (Jerry Lee Lewis), Blueberry Hill (Fats Domino), Whole Lotta Shakin' Goin' On (Jerry Lee Lewis), Hound Dog / Don't Be Cruel (Elvis Presley), Rock Around the Clock (Bill Haley & His Comets).
