Clint Holmes - Playground In My Mind (2023) [Official Digital Download 24/192]

Playground in My Mind" had first been recorded by Billy Lawrence (II) in 1971 as "Playground In My Mind (Mama, Je T'aime)" on Atlantic Records, but failed to chart. Holmes' better known version was released in the U.S. in June 1972 but did not reach the Hot 100 chart until 24 March 1973, whereupon it rose to #2 on 16–23 June 1973, behind "My Love" by Paul McCartney and Wings. The single stayed on the chart for 23 weeks.[5] The song was granted gold disc status by the R.I.A.A. on 3 July 1973.
The release went one better in Canada, topping the RPM 100 national singles charts there for three consecutive weeks in the same year (23 June - 7 July). On the Canadian Adult Contemporary chart, "Playground in My Mind" reached #1.
