#23 Georgia On My Mind -- Ray Charles (1960)



Timeless song, great vocals by the incomparable Ray Charles, excellent arrangement – what more could you ask for? Note that this is the only song on the list that’s an official song for any of the states.

#24 It's So Hard To Say Goodbye To Yesterday -- Boyz II Men (1991)



This one is one of the best – and most successful – a cappella songs of all time. It never fails to bring a lump to my throat.
