"High on a Hill" has consistently been voted an all-time top song on oldies radio stations in the Pittsburgh metropolitan area. It also reached #3 in popularity on the San Francisco Bay Area radio charts.
With Larry Weiss, he wrote "Bend Me, Shape Me", which became a hit for the Chicago-based band The American Breed, reaching #5 on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 chart in 1968; it was also a hit in the UK for Amen Corner.

San Francisco (/sæn frənˈsɪskoʊ/), officially the City and County of San Francisco, is the cultural, commercial, and financial center of Northern California and the only consolidated city-county in California. San Francisco encompasses a land area of about 46.9 square miles (121 km2) on the northern end of the San Francisco Peninsula, which makes it the smallest county in the state. It has a density of about 18,187 people per square mile (7,022 people per km2), making it the most densely settled large city (population greater than 200,000) in the state of California and the second-most densely populated major city in the United States after New York City. San Francisco is the fourth-most populous city in California, after Los Angeles, San Diego and San Jose, and the 13th-most populous city in the United States—with a Census-estimated 2014 population of 852,469. The city and its surrounding areas are known as the San Francisco Bay Area, and are a part of the larger OMB designated San Jose-San Francisco-Oakland combined statistical area, the fifth most populous in the nation with an estimated population of 8.6 million.
San Francisco was one of the original bitmap typefaces for the Apple Macintosh computer released in 1984. It was designed by Susan Kare to mimic the ransom note effect and was used in early Mac software demos and Apple company fliers. An official TrueType version was never made, and San Francisco was rendered obsolete with the arrival of System 7.
Saint Francis, by Hank Gillette, is a free TrueType font of similar design sometimes used as a surrogate on non-Apple systems.
Nevado San Francisco, or Cerro San Francisco (Spanish pronunciation: [sam fɾanˈsisko]), is a stratovolcano on the border between Argentina and Chile, located just southeast of San Francisco Pass. It is considered extinct and is one of the several 6,000 m (19,700 ft) peaks in the area, of which the chief is the Ojos del Salado. The volcano is composed from andesite with the exception of basaltic cones and lava flows on the eastern side. These cones are part of the Peinado lineament and a sample was dated 200,000 years ago by argon chronology. On the summit lie two circle-shaped constructs, of Inca or Formative period ages.

More people died of drug overdoses than of Covid in San Francisco over a one year period. Why has one of the richest cities in the world been devastated by drugs? Please subscribe HERE http://bit.ly/1rbfUog Fentanyl is 100 times stronger than morphine and even a tiny quantity can kill. But its low cost has made it a popular recreational drug. Parts of the city were placed into a state of emergency in December to crackdown on overdose deaths. And after defunding the police, the city’s mayor has now refunded the police to tackle the issue. But the democratic mayor and democratic District Attorney are divided on how to fix the problem.

San Francisco, California — a city so beautiful it’s hard to believe it’s real. Yet at the same time, it is gritty and dystopian, its underbelly fully exposed for the world to see. In this travel documentary, explore the nature and geography of this 7x7 peninsula, take a closer look at the quirky, colorful Victorian architecture and the history behind it, visit one of the most iconic Victorians in town (that looks like the Addam's Family mansion), and walk through the Tenderloin, a complex neighborhood that is ground zero of San Francisco's homeless and drug crisis and home to the city's Southeast Asian immigrants. https://www.epidemicsound.com/campaign/invite-a-creator/?_us=Referral&_usx=t9g6ky&utm_source=ref_program&utm_medium=affiliate&utm_campaign=t9g6ky Most of the music in our vide...

High on a hill
Where troubles were few
High on a hill
By our old rendezvous
Here am I
I can't go on
Since you're gone (you're gone)
Since you're gone (you're gone)
You're gone and I'm alone
We made a vow
We never would part
You held your hand
So close to my heart
How could I know?
How could I believe
You would leave me this way?
All my dreams,
All my schemes
Have lost their glow
Since you're away
What can I do?
Is there still a chance
To have you (to have you),
To hold you (to hold you),
To love you forever more?
High on a hill
I'm begging to you
You were my life
I need you, I do
'Til you come back to me,
Here I will be
High on a hill
