Top 50 Songs of 1969

Is this a mixture of styles, or what??
I think of "Sweet Caroline" as our song (Keith & mine), since my middle name is Caroline:)
Not sure about the sweet part (standing on shaky ground with that word), but the rest of the lyrics fit our story:)

I included the top 50 to get in a Beach Boys' song, Keith favorite group:)
I loved The Beatles & CCR:)
Number 41 became one of our favorites, & we finally saw Arlo a few summers ago at Regency here in Cary:)

Evidently "In The Summer Of '69" was not even thought of til 1984, when written by Bryan Adams and Jim Vallance.
