Nancy Sinatra's "These Boots Are Made for Walkin'" hits #1 1966


The second single from Nancy Sinatra's debut album Boots, the iconic These Boots Are Made for Walkin', reached #1 in the U.S. February 26, 1966.  Her first single So Long, Babe was a minor hit but this one was a major hit and shot up the charts, after being released in January.   It repeated its success in the U.K., Australia, and Ireland and it has been covered by various artists more than a dozen times.

I think everyone can probably sing the words to the refrain by memory.
