"I'm a Believer" by The Monkeys

I was watching Fox & Friends this morning when they highlighted The Monkeys song called, "I'm a Believer"  and although I can't find evidence of this I believe they mentioned that on this date in 1967 was the first day this song topped the music charts.  It wasn't the release date, or if it was then Wikipedia has gotten their information wrong. I have always enjoyed listening to The Monkeys. Enjoy the music!
