...day is a beautiful one, by Richie Havens. (No, it's not "Freedom," although that's a good one, too.) It's called "Follow," and it's from the 1967 album, "Mixed Bag." It was written by Jerry Merrick (whoever that is). I first heard it on the soundtrack from the 1978 movie, "Coming Home," which is one of my favorite Vietnam films. (It's depressing what's happened to Jon Voight, isn't it?) The movie was loosely based on the life of Ron Kovic and is much better than Oliver Stone's "Born on the Fourth of July."
If you can ignore the annoying video and just listen to the music, I think you'll enjoy it.
