MacArthur Park--don't laugh--is one of my favorite songs of all time. I love it's
overblown lyrics, it's symphonic backgrounds, it's multiple key changes. I even like the way Richard Harris (known to younger folks as the original Dumbledore in the Harry Potter movies) croons, "MacArthur's Park"--adding the possessive.
The song was a number 1 hit in 1968, so I'm not alone in my affection.
Give it a listen.
