In 1965, Sam the Sham and the Pharaohs became the first act to have the #1 song of the year with a song that did not hit #1, that being "Wooly Bully" which only got to #2.

What I love are songs that peak very low on the weekly charts but manage to make it into the year-end countdowns. In 1970 "I Want To Take You Higher" only got to #34, but was the #79 single of that year.

"Devil's Gun" by CJ and Co. still holds the record for the lowest peaking single to make a year-end chart. It peaked at #36 and was the #100 song of 1977, according to Billboard. However, AT40 used their own chart that year.
