"America, Communicate With Me" by Ray Stevens
Ray Stevens is often remembered as a comedic singer due to novelty hits like "Gitarzan" (#8 in 1969) and "The Streak" (3 weeks at #1 in 1974). But there was a more serious side, one that earned him another chart topper and a Grammy: "Everything Is Beautiful" spent 2 weeks at #1 in 1970. Dabbling in all sorts of genres through his chart career in the 60s and 70s, Stevens saw his last entry in 1979 when "I Need Your Help Barry Manilow" peaked at #49.
