This was the very first number one single of 1970. The London pop cultural boom was in full swing. It soon faded from the charts of the time but fifty-one years later it was, briefly, back again. Wikipedia:
Toward the end of 2021, the song saw a massive resurgence due to its popularity on TikTok. Between 25 December 2021 and 3 January 2022, the song saw a growth of 1,490% in its on-demand audio streams, and moved onto Spotify’s U.S. Top 200 Chart.

Write the things which thou hast seen, and the things which are, and the things which shall be hereafter. Revelation 1:19
