    Chubby has a vast catalogue of hits. The Twist, Let’s Twist Again, Slow Twistin’, Twistin’ USA, Twist It Up, Twistin’ Around the World, Der Twist Beginnt, Nothin’ but the Twist, Teach me to Twist, and The Mexican Hat Twist, my favorite.
    the list goes on and on.

      Don’t forget the deep cuts like “I’d Be Happy Just to Twist With You,” “Twist, Twist, Twist,” “Twist to Tomorrow,” “Twist Me, Baby,” or the tracks made during his darkest hour like “The Last Twist” or “The Twist is Dead,” and of course his comeback album “Viva La Twist”

    It simply boggles my mind that someone can so desperately hang onto a single hit song for almost 60 years. It wasn't even his song either, his version is a cover. Also, it topped the charts for only 1 week, but at this point 60 years later he thinks it's the greatest gift humanity has ever given itself.

      Dude it takes a special/"special" kind of human being with no self-awareness to be able to do that (and I'm applying this to any one-trick-celebrity trying to milk it for years and years), because I would feel like the corniest P.O.S. after just a couple years of clinging on to one song, and the shame would kill me.

      His other hit was “Let’s Twist Again.”
      He failed to chart with “Could We Please Twist a Third Time?” and “You Guys You Need To Twist There Are People After Me They’ll Break My Arms Help Me Out You’ve Got to Do This for the Chub.”

      I danced with Chubby Checker on stage, in the late 90s. He treated me with kindness, & respect. Also, there was a group of mentally handicap adults who kept running up & hugging him, while he sang on ground floor. He was very gracious. As his bodyguards led him off afterwards, he took my hand like a gentleman, & smiled. I guess there's two sides to every pancake. 🤷

    He went on a several minute rant about the Beatles and the twist being the most significant thing in the history of music, it was… sad. And uncomfortable. This would probably be even funnier if some of those voice clips got edited into this

The Twist was #1 two times, the only song to ever be #1 two times in a row, two different years. Limbo Rock was a big hit #8, The Twist Again #2, many hits. Sorry but disrespecting Chubby Checker like this makes me want to go to chubby checker dot com and buy a box of checker bars, I'm gonna do it, no joke, I'm on there now, wow, he has chubby checker Beef Jerky, 4 flavors, nice, spicy pepper garlic, dang I'm gonna have to get that one, you all are missing out. Induct Chubby Checker in the rock and roll hall of fame. He was the first musician to play at the halftime super bowl, living legend.
