"Hard Headed Woman" is a great record, and "Diana" is very good. Boone's version of "I Almost Lost My Mind" is much better than Hunter's bland original, and there are lots of worse #1 records than these between 1950 and 1954. You're a complete and uetter moron.

Elvis Presley's worst #1 hit was "Love Me Tender." 2. Pat Boone's worst #1 hit was "April Love." 3. Paul Anka's worst #1 hit was "Lonely Boy." If anything, "Diana" was his best record (though that's not saying much). 4. Frankie Avalon's "Why" was much worthier of inclusion on this list than "Tom Dooley." 5. As was the Four Aces' "Love is a Many-Splendored Thing." 6. As for Sonny James, the man did not really fade into obscurity. He continued to make the country charts right into the '70s (though usually with lame-ass remakes of other peoples' hits). 1. Elvis Presley’s worst #1 hit was “Love Me Tender.”

Several of the songs you listed are classics in their own right and have earned that status because of what they were when. It's too bad you do not understand the thinking of the that time.
