On days like today, it sure seems like the song is true!
"The bluest skies you've ever seen are in Seattle. And the hills the greenest green, in Seattle. Like a beautiful child growing up free and wild, full of hope and full of fears..."
Originally written for the TV series "Here Comes the Brides" that aired from 1968 to 1970, "The Bluest Skies You've Ever Seen Are In Seattle" - words and music by Hugo Montenegro, Ernie Sheldon, and Jack Keller - was recorded by artists that included Perry Como, Connie Smith and Bobby Sherman, who was also one of the stars of the show. The plot for "Here Comes the Bride", involved 100 single women being recruited from Massachusetts to move out to the 1870 logging town of Seattle. David Soul, who went on to "Starsky and Hutch" fame was one of the major characters of the show.
