All week long, you’ve narrowed down the choices for the Best Song Of 1962. With so many great candidates, it wasn't easy. In fact it was so competitive we had to make the finals the Top 11. Your job is to now select the very BEST one! And you have all weekend to do it!.
The Best Song of 1962 Was?
If you need a reminder of what these songs sounded like, we've provided a medley on the inside. And remember, we have no way of knowing how many times anyone votes. More to the point, we don't mind if you vote (and vote and vote) all weekend so don't feel guilty. Be "independent"! Just do it!

Believe it Or Not
They Had Plenty To Be Happy AboutWhy Our Great-Grandparents Were Happier Than We Are
And Able To Make It Through Those Really Tough Times!!From The Occasionally Twisted Mind of Mike Pell
I am, by nature, a fairly easy going kind of guy. I don't get too bent out of shape over news items. I figure there isn't much I can do about it so why allow the blood pressure to boil over. But once in a while I see things that not only increase my blood pressure, they come dangerously close to making my blood boil.
Just to set the record straight, I understand the grief process. Like every other person on earth, I have lost family members and close friends. I also understand grief is – and should be – a personal thing. No two people deal with it the same way, which is a good thing. If we all handled it in the same manner, we'd be no different than Democrats rubber-stamping every piece of legislature a president proposes without so much as, "excuse me, you want what?"
But this isn't about politics. It's about the death – and the reaction to that death – of a musician. Michael Jackson was, no doubt, extremely gifted. He was in many ways one of the greats. But I'm here to tell you he wasn't "the greatest man ever born," unless you're the person who actually expressed that thought in one of the endless articles on fan sentiment following Jackson's death.

Very few are born with the gifts Michael Jackson possessed. He was an immense talent and an extraordinary performer. He could craft a song as well as anyone in the rock & roll era. There was a time he dominated the charts almost at will. At the age of 24, he released Thriller, an album which went on to become the biggest-selling album of all time. As time went on, the high-pitched hiccup became a trademark and together with stunning eye-popping dance moves, he was to many the irresistible pop star.
