The Staple Singers - Power of Love (1968)
Recorded as the Staples were moving to secular music, there's still a strong gospel sound backing Mavis' powerful and gritty vocals. Cool guitar by Pops, as well.

“What The World Needs Now is Love” (1965)
With music composed by Burt Bacharach, lyrics by Hal David, and vocals recorded by Jackie DeShannon, its message is truer than ever today.
“What the world needs now is love, sweet love It's the only thing that there's just too little of What the world needs now is love, sweet love No, not just for some but for everyone Lord, we don't need another mountain There are mountains and hillsides enough to climb There are oceans and rivers enough to cross Enough to last 'til the end of time What the world needs now is love, sweet love It's the only thing that there's just too little of What the world needs now is love, sweet love No, not just for some but for everyone Lord, we don't need another meadow There are corn fields and wheat fields enough to grow There are sunbeams and moonbeams enough to shine Oh listen Lord, if You want to know What the world needs now is love, sweet love It's the only thing that there's just too little of What the world needs now is love, sweet love No, not just for some, oh, but just for every, every everyone What the world needs now is love, sweet love What the world needs now is love, sweet love What the world needs now is love, sweet love What the world needs now is love, sweet love What the world needs now is love, sweet love”

57. What the World Needs Now Is Love by Jackie deShannon debuted May 65 and peaked at number five, scoring 938 points.
Jackie was born Sharon Myers in Hazel, Kentucky, and has 16 chart entries 1963-89. Two made the top ten.
While Jackie is an accomplished songwriter (Bette Davis Eyes), the song was written by Burt Bacharach and Hal David. Dionne Warwick turned the song down because it was too country and too preachy. She eventually recorded it in 1966.
Tom Clay featured the song in a 1971 spoken word medley and peaked at number eight.

let's just pretend i didn't fail to force my brain to work for two months and enjoy the next globe
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
this is probably my most classically pretty snowglobe, i quite like it
notable features
monochrome silver and white
two(2) nice doves
some fancy swirls
a protrusion which i assume was meant to be engraved with something, but as i probably found this in a thrift store, was not
nice clear tones
a shorter melody
overall an 8/10 nothing to exciting or novel but very pretty
