Chubby Checkers The Twist returned to #1 nationally on January 7, 1962. Other than Bing Crosbys White Christmas, it is the only song do that by the same artist. The Twist originally peaked at #1 late in the summer of 1960. Also on this date in 1963, Chubbys fifteenth hit, Dancin Party earned him a plagiarism suit by Gary US Bonds, who felt that Checkers single was too similar to Bonds 1961 hit Quarter to Three (the suit was settled out-of-court.)
