"You Got To Me" #18 3/4/1967

The third Top 20 effort for Neil Diamond. By now, he was fairly well established as a songwriter. Neil attended New York University on a fencing scholarship - he was a member of their 1960 NCAA championship team - and was a pre-med major, but discovered a few years earlier at summer camp he'd rather write songs for a living. He dropped out of college to pursue music, and I think he made the right career choice.
