Alan Sherman. Left Banke- Pretty Ballerina. Also, to me, You’re Beautiful is just annoying. I love your other picks!

During the height of the Vietnam War there was a song sung by a military man Sgt. Berry Saunders. Do you remember the song The Green Berets?

Thanks for the list.
I listened to a lot of Top 40 stuff on an AM radio in high school. Years later I played a lot of "middle of the road" music as a radio DJ.
All time favorite: Pictures of Matchstick Man [never got to play it!]
Camper Van Beethoven version is also great.
Silly song that outlasted the 60's: Judy In Disguise! [Never Got To Play it!]
Proudest song I ever played: Neil Diamond: "Coming To America." (From The Jazz Singer.) I was on all night radio in Milwaukee the night the Iranian hostages were finally released. The minute they were out of Iranian airspace I blasted it out! "Freedom's light burning warm."

Now you are in my land. I can name scores of forever songs in the 40's - 70's. Yes, I'm older.

No where near the ages of the tunes/artists he mentioned. He left off tons of others from 40's - 70's.

I know it's late, but this song always brings a tear.
