Title: I'D LIKE TO TEACH THE WORLD IN SING (IN PERFECT HARMONY)
Post by: harryhoudini on August 05, 2009, 01:41:09 am
I'd like to build the world a home
And furnish it with love
Grow apple trees and honey bees and snow-white turtle doves

I'd like to teach the world to sing
In perfect harmony
I'd like to hold it in my arms and keep it company

I'd like to see the world for once
All standing hand in hand
And hear them echo through the hills Oh, peace throughout the land

(That's the song I hear)
I'd like to teach the world to sing (that the world sings today)
In perfect harmony

I'd like to teach the world to sing
In perfect harmony

I'd like to build the world a home
And furnish it with love
Grow apple trees and honey bees and snow-white turtle doves
(That's the song I hear)                                                                           (http://www.therightplaice.co.uk/images/6050C7CokeCan.jpg)

According to the I’d Like to Teach The World To Sing Songfacts, this was written for a Coca-Cola commercial to be sung by The New Seekers. When the advert became a hit, radio stations got requests for the song, It was made into a full length song with the line, “I’d like to buy the world a Coke, and keep it company,” replaced so radio stations would play it…

and the rest is history as we know it...........................
