According to the Top 30 Countdown on Radio Disney, "Grazing In the Grass" by Raven-Saymone is #13 this week. Last week was #11. I've learned that I went through some of these sites for example musicradio77.com has the survey from July 30th, 1968 that Hugh Masekela's original version was #6 on the survey. Then, a year later in 1969, the Friends of Distinction's version was #2 on the WABC survey from June 17th of that year. That was from the site called musicradio77.com This is what I found. You should go to the following links:

Sorry! I pronounced it wrong. Did you check the link to see the original 1968 version and the 1969 version that usually made it on the old WABC survey?

yes. the one for '69 was at number 2 and it lasted for three weeks(i think!). im sure that raven's version of the song will beat both of those records! it will be number one real soon!

I hope it will be there soon. I just noticed that according to the site, musicradio77.com, WABC had a year end survey for both 1968 and 1969. Here's is just a little example. The original version by Huge Masekela was #67 and another version by the Friends of Distinction was #47. Here are these two links again:

By the way, here are these two pictures of the cover of the year end survey.

back to the topic, i think ravens version of the song should never go below #47 or #67 on the charts!
