(Wake Up) Marianne-Steven Stills #42

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vGYYrQe7RQo

Now considering that he later joined with Graham Nash, he probably would admit that he was influenced by The Hollies on this, particularly "Carrie Anne", which was about Marianne Faithfull. But hardly anyone admits being influenced by The Four Seasons. Billy Joel had to be dragged kicking and screaming before he admitted that he stole the last line of "Rag Doll" when he wrote "I Love You Just The Way You Are", copping to stealing the line even after "Uptown Girl". Anyway, "C'mon Marianne" and "Carrie Anne" came out nearly contemporaneously, and part of the reason they made it "Carrie Anne" was to avoid confusion in the record stores. And perhaps to avoid getting beat up by Mick Jagger.

Here’s one that even Stopnswop couldn’t get “Sam” by Olivia Newton John from 1977, The song ranked #1 for 2 Weeks on Billboard Hot A/C charts(The chart was also known as the Easy Listening chart That year) March 12th and March 19th, In That Great year of 1977, That was the year my Son was born.
