Thread Name: Lyr Req: 'nation of immigrants' (NBC ed. films)
Subject: RE: Stan Davis
Ecosia search engine comes up with love songs by a Stan Davis -
My one and only love: "The very thought of you makes my heart sing Like an April breeze on the wings of spring, And you appear in all your splendor, My one and only love" / Like a Lover: "Like a lover the river wind, Sighs and ripples its fingers through your hair, Upon your cheek it lingers,"/ My Foolish Heart: "The night is like a lovely tune Beware my foolish heart How white the ever constant moon Take care my foolish heart There's a line between love and fascination That's hard to see, how many names such as this For they both have the very same sensation When you're locked in the magic of a kiss Her lips are much too close to mine Beware my foolish ... "

Do you think this is the same lyricist? A Canadian! (or at least lives in British Columbia) http://standavis.ca/home.html He doesn't look young, but whether he's old enough to have had his songs recorded in the 1960s I don't know. The song list on this website doesnt include the love songs or - as far as I've noticed - that immigrant song but it does have some political lyrics such as
WATCH OUT FOR COMMUNISTS
THOSE LOW-DOWN, DIRTY ROTTEN COMMUNISTS
YOU BETTER BE CAREFUL
YOU SIMPLY MUST RESIST
CEASE AND DESIST THOSE VILE COMMUNISTS
THERE’S NO COMPARISON
BETWEEN THOSE COMMIES AND AMERICANS
WE CANNOT CO-EXIST
SO WATCH OUT FOR THE COMMUNISTS!

(capital letters because I copied and posted from http://standavis.ca/music.html )

or
WE’RE IN THE MIDDLE OF A CRISIS
THERE IS A RISK SECRETS WILL LEAK
BUT NO MATTER WHAT THE PRICE IS
WE CANNOT LET THE DOCTOR SPEAK

FOR THIS CONTENTIOUS SITUATION
(DO WHAT IT DEEMS)
WE HAVE A MULTITUDE OF MEANS
(WE’VE GOT THE MEANS)
FOR THE SAFETY OF OUR NATION
WE’LL GO TO EXTREMES
