Song help?

Who sings that song with lyrics: "If you're going to San Fransisco, make sure you wear flowers in your hair"? Or something along the lines of that. Fairly close I believe. Any help provided is greatly appreciated.

Reply:San Francisco (Be Sure To Wear Flowers In Your Hair) is a song, written by John Phillips of The Mamas %26amp; The Papas, and sung by Scott McKenzie. It was released in 1967 (The Summer of Love) and became a cultural icon.



McKenzie's song, written to promote the 1967 Monterey Pop Festival, became an instant hit, and became the anthem of the "hippie" era. The song's lyrics tell the listeners, "If you're going to San Francisco, be sure to wear some flowers in your hair". The song reached the number 4 spot in America and was a number one in Europe. The song is credited with bringing thousands of young people to San Francisco during the sixties. The song was extenisively used by Led Zeppelin in their live performances of Dazed and Confused.



In Eastern Europe, young people adopted the song "San Francisco" as an anthem for freedom, and it was widely played during Czechoslovakia's 1968 Prague Spring uprising against Soviet rule.
