- The_Hillside_Singers abstract "The Hillside Singers were an American folk group. The ensemble was assembled by advertising agency McCann Erickson for the purposes of singing in a television commercial. McCann Erickson had written the jingle \"I'd Like to Buy the World a Coke\" for Coca-Cola, and had sought to have The New Seekers sing it, but The New Seekers could not fit the project into their schedule and turned it down. McCann Erickson then got in touch with producer Al Ham, who then put together a group of singers for the project (including his wife, Mary Mayo, and their daughter Lorri). The commercial began airing late in 1971 and was extremely popular, convincing Ham to rewrite the song as \"I'd Like to Teach the World to Sing\" and to record an album and a Christmas record; the single hit #13 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart and #5 on the Adult Contemporary chart, which convinced The New Seekers to issue it as a single as well. The Hillside Singers version of the song sold a million copies, earning a gold certification from the Recording Industry Association of America.The Hillside Singers also sang the vocal version of Move Closer to Your World, a theme created for television news by Ham, and is most well known for its long-time use by WPVI-TV in Philadelphia.In 1972, they also had a minor hit with \"We're Together\", which peaked at No. 100 on The Billboard Hot 100 in February 1972.Ham went on to create a syndicated radio music format called Music of Your Life, but he died in 2001. Lorri Ham (now known as Lorri Hafer) continues to work as a professional singer and is also an on-air personality on the Music of Your Life network.In 2009 several of the former Hillside Singers, under the name Treehouse 10, released Bug in a Puddle, an album of original children's songs.".
