Did you know...When Michael Aaron Goodman was born Georgia On My Mind by Ray Charles was the number one song on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100. GEORGIA ON MY MIND - RAY CHARLES Georgia, Georgia, The whole day through Just an old sweet song Keeps Georgia on my mind I said Georgia, Georgia, A song of you Comes as sweet and clear As moonlight through the pines Other arms reach out to me Other eyes smile tenderly Still in peaceful dreams I see The road leads back to you I said Georgia, Ooh Georgia, no peace I find Just an old sweet song Keeps Georgia on my mind Other arms reach out to me Other eyes smile tenderly Still in peaceful dreams I see The road leads back to you Georgia, Georgia, No peace, no peace I find Just this old, sweet song Keeps Georgia on my mind I said just an old sweet song, Keeps Georgia on my mind Did you know... Michael A. Goodman was born in Pennsylvania. IP: Logged |

Georgia On My Mind is the official state song of The Goober State! quote:
It was not until Ray Charles' 1960 recording on The Genius Hits the Road, that the song became a major hit, reaching the number one spot for one week in November 1960 on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100. On March 7, 1979, in a mutual symbol of reconciliation after conflict over civil rights issues, he performed it before the Georgia General Assembly (the state legislature). After this performance, the connection to the state was firmly made, and the Assembly adopted it as the state song on April 24.
