Question #89993. huskergeno asks: What song made it on the American Top 40 chart by two different artists in the 70's? AyatollahK posts: The answer is "I'd Like To Teach the World to Sing" by the New Seekers and the Hillside Singers. http://memory.loc.gov/ammem/ccmphtml/colaadv.html "Because the New Seekers were initially unavailable to record the new version, a group calling itself the Hillside Singers recorded it with a country-and-western flavor and released it as a single. When the New Seekers began an American tour several weeks latter, they re-recorded the new lyrics and released a second single. Both version sold well - ­in fact, at one point, the New Seekers version was listed among the top ten songs on the American pop music charts while the Hillside Singers version was number thirteen."
