Tina bounced around aimlessly during the first 4 decades of the 20th century, then started to take off in late 1930s.   She eventually spent 28 years in the top 100 (1956-83), peaking at #18 in 1968 and 1972.  She experienced a notably precipitous decline thereafter, falling off the chart after 2006.
