Matches in DBpedia 2014 for { ?s ?p "Cherish" is a pop song written by Terry Kirkman and recorded by The Association. Released in 1966, the song reached number one on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 in September of that year and remained in the top position for three weeks. In Canada, the song also reached number one. The single version was slightly edited by removing one of the two "And I do cherish you" lines near the end of the song. This edit was done as a means of keeping the track from exceeding the three minute mark, as radio programmers then frowned upon songs that went beyond three minutes. However, even with the edit, the song still ran over. Instead of editing further, producer Curt Boettcher intentionally listed 3:00 on the label as the song's running time. Session musician Doug Rhodes, also member of The Music Machine, played the Celesta on the recording. Producer Curt Boettcher added some vocals, most notably the high-pitched "told you" and "hold you" on the final verse.[citation needed]In 2012, original Association member Jim Yester said the record label claimed the song sounded "too old and archaic", but the song's success "just showed we can have our archaic and eat it, too.". }
