  2. Top Ten Songs of 1969! Left a good job in the city,Workin' for the man ev'ry night and day,And I never lost one minute of sleepin',Worryin' 'bout the way things might have been.Big wheel keep on turnin',Proud Mary keep on burnin',Rollin', rollin', rollin' on the river. Cleaned a lot of plates in Memphis,Pumped a lot of pain down in New Orleans,But I never saw the good side of the city,'Til I hitched a ride on a river boat queen. Rollin', rollin', rollin' on the river. If you come down to the river,Bet you gonna find some people who live.You don't have to worry 'cause you have no money,People on the river are happy to give. All of these songs are these artists showing their frustration and hopes for the world. Each song is fantastic, Proud Mary (CCR) reflects the hardships of this year, and shows perseverance.

  3. What’s Going On? Last month Nixon announced his Family Assistance Plan, his welfare reform proposal providing direct payments to the working poor. Will it be approved? Time can only tell. Earlier this month, Vietnamese president, Ho Chi Minh died of heart failure at the age of 79. He died on the morning of September 2, in his home in Hanoi. News of his death was kept quiet from the public for nearly 48 hours. He is succeeded by Le Duan, who publicly read his last will, urging the North Vietnamese to ‘keep fighting until the last Yankee has gone.’ Will he be replaced as president?

  6. Woodstock. 3 Days of Peace & Music. During the sometimes rainy weekend, thirty-two acts performed outdoors in front of 500,000 concert-goers.It will be widely regarded as one of the greatest and most pivotal moments in popular music history. Woodstock was started through the efforts of Michael Lang, John Roberts, Joel Rosenman, and Artie Kornfeld. The concert was originally scheduled to take place in the 300-acre Mills Industrial Park in the town of Wallkill, New York. Town officials were assured that no more than 50,000 would attend. Little did they know how huge this event would be. The Wallkill Zoning Board of Appeals officially banned the concert. The concert was re-located to dairy farmer Max Yasgur’s farm. The late change in venue did not give the festival organizers enough time to prepare. At a meeting three days before the event organizers felt they had two choices. One option was to improve the fencing and security which might have resulted in violence. The crowd which was arriving in greater numbers and earlier than anticipated made the decision for them. The fence was cut the night before the concert.
