THE NEW SEEKERS “I’D LIKE TO TEACH THE WORLD TO SING (IN PERFECT HARMONY)” 1971

THE NEW SEEKERS “I’D LIKE TO TEACH THE WORLD TO SING (IN PERFECT HARMONY)” 1971 UK PRESSING SINGLE

This was written for a Coca-Cola commercial to be sung by The New Seekers. Considered one of the most effective ads of all-time, it featured a group of children from various countries singing the song together on a hilltop.

When the commercial became a hit, radio stations got requests for the song, but the only place it could be heard was in the ad. Coke put together a group called The Hillside Singers to record a full version adapted from the commercial. The song had a country sound and hit US #13. Then they had the New Seekers record a version which was also released. Both versions were on the charts at the same time.
