Add article description

These are the Billboard Hot 100 number-one hits of 1963.

Kyu Sakamoto hit #1 in 1963 with "Ue o Muite Arukō", titled "Sukiyaki" in the U.S., becoming the first and only Japanese song to do so.

That year, all but two acts (The Four Seasons and Bobby Vinton) achieved their first number-one singles, with a total of 19, which were Steve Lawrence, The Rooftop Singers, Paul & Paula, Ruby & the Romantics, The Chiffons, Little Peggy March, Jimmy Soul, Lesley Gore, Kyu Sakamoto, The Essex, Jan & Dean, The Tymes, Stevie Wonder (as ‘Little Stevie Wonder’), The Angels, Jimmy Gilmer & the Fireballs, Nino Tempo, April Stevens, Dale & Grace, and The Singing Nun. These artists only went to the top with these songs once (excluding Wonder, who would later go on to have ten songs hit number one).
