"Bus Stop" and " I'm Alive"
The Hollies were formed in 1962 when duo Allan Clarke (vocals) and Graham Nash (vocals/guitar) joined Eric Haydock (bass), Don Rathbone (drums) and Tony Hicks (guitar). They signed to Parlophone and their first two singles were covers of the Coasters' "(Ain't That) Just Like Me" and "Searchin'," which reached UK #25 and #12 respectively. Rathbone left to become their road manager and was replaced by Bobby Elliott. The Hollies' third single, 1963's "Stay," began a remarkable streak of mostly all UK Top 10 hits which ran until 1970, including the #1 hit "I'm Alive," written by Graham Gouldman. Eric Haydock was fired in 1966 and replaced by Bernie Calvert. Also that year, The Hollies had their first US hit with "Bus Stop," also written by Graham Gouldman, which reached US #5. They had two more US Top Tens with "Stop Stop Stop" and "Carrie Ann."
