The pop duo Peter and Gordon was part of the British Invasion in the 60's. Interestingly, Peter had a sister named Jane who dated Paul McCartney. Paul, in turn, gave this wonderful tune to Peter and Gordon who, in turn, got a #1 hit with it:


Amen.

Jimmy Webb wrote this classic number for Glen Campbell, who turned it into a #1 hit in 1968. Glen passed away from Alzheimer's at the age of 81 in 2017:


Amen.
Deo vindice

The Girl From Ipanema spent two weeks at #1 on the easy listening chart and was a worldwide hit. Astrud Gilberto's beauty and softly sexy voice is what took this bossa nova classic over the top, IMHO.


Amen.
Deo vindice

This song spent a week at #1 on the easy listening chart in 1975.  It's by Hamilton, Joe Frank & Reynolds, although Reynolds left the group in 1972 and was replaced by Alan Dennison:

This special, heartfelt song was written by Kenny Loggins for his brother Danny to celebrate the birth of his son Colin.  And, not surprisingly, Anne Murray had a #1 hit cover of it:


Amen.
