This day in history: "Hey Jude" was released for sale in the United States on this day in 1968. "Hey Jude" was the best-selling single ever recorded by The Beatles (as well as the most popular single of 1968 in the U.S. and the UK, and half a century later, still the 10th best-seller worldwide of all recorded songs), and it was the first Beatles release for their new company, Apple Records.
The best-selling song of all time is Bing Crosby's "White Christmas" and the best-selling rock song is "Rock Around the Clock" by Bill Haley and the Comets.
