I’m up way earlier than I want to be, and now I’m listening to America’s greatest hits. I have a closing shift but I don’t go in until five tonight so I’m gonna try to get some things done today.

![^ Sampling and cover versions
• The song's opening guitar riff and musical hook is sampled throughout Janet Jackson's 2001 song "Someone to Call My Lover" by the production team of Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis who were influenced by America and "Ventura Highway" listening to KDWB 63 AM (Top 40) growing up in Minneapolis, Minnesota (along with their close friend, musician Prince).
Bunnell said the use of the sample from
"Ventura Highway" and the production by Jam, Lewis and Jackson boosted sales for America.

On this day in 1975, America released their 5th studio album Hearts! It included hit songs like Daisy Jane, Woman Tonight, and their 2nd #1 Sister Golden Hair. It's an album I put high on my list of favorites so did you have this album?
