Radio trivia: What Record in it;s orginal version has hit the chartss the greatest number of times?

White Christmas

Maybe, maybe not. Though "White Christmas" is the accepted trivia answer, there are some other titles that may have actually received more airplay. Some example, The Righteous Brothers - "You've Lost That Lovin' Feelin'"
has been played over 8,000,000 times!

Here's the actual Top-10 from ASCAP and BMI (they must be looked at separately for reasons too lengthy to get into here):
