I've always liked "Magic Moments." Sweet song, very nicely done. An early gem in the careers of composers Burt Bacharach & Hal David.

Another guy similar to Perry Como was Andy Williams, who made some music I really like. They both had songs by the best writers around at the time. Andy's "Can't Get Used To Loosing You" and "Moon River" (written by Henry Mancini, of course) are fantastic. Each also had his own variety TV show, watched by pretty much all families in the U.S. |
They called Perry "Mr. Relaxation". Here's the old SCTV gang having fun with that: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zj5A7W-0zPY |
