Best Answer

The Twist by Chubby Checker was a number one song twice in a short period.

"In 1960, The Twist hit number one, kicking off the most successful dance craze of the 1960s. The Twist craze was so strong that the same record hit number one again in 1961 just 15 months later."

The song was originally done by Hank Ballard and the Midnighters in 1959, but this version was more popular after Chubby Checker really made the song famous.
