In The Number Ones, I'm reviewing every single #1 single in the history of the Billboard Hot 100, starting with the chart's beginning, in 1958, and working my way up into the present. There's a short-lived cinematic tradition that I absolutely love: the movie end-credits song where the lyrics - often delivered in comedy-rap style, sometimes by the stars of the movie itself - summarize the plot of the movie you just watched.
