I wish that we could do songs that are inspirational due to the holidays and the hard times that we, as a whole, are having here in the USA right now!  Maybe songs like "Jesus Loves Me" by Whitney Houston or "Silent Night" sang by a childrens Choir!

RAINDROPS KEEP FALLING ON MY HEAD BY DIONNE WARWICK

[aa38086548]

Correction to my earlier comment. Dionne Warwick, not Diana Ross, may have sung Raindrops, as she sang a lot of songs composed by Burt Bacharach, but cannot be credited as the composer. BJ Thomas sang it for sure. 

[aa38086548]

Burt Bacharach composed Raindrops are falling on my head. Diana Ross may have sung it, but did not write it, just to be clear. I never heard her sing it, either. Baby it’s cold outside!
