Like, "Monday, Monday" isn't a song you haven't related to, in some moments of your life? It's imprinted on me, in a good way, over the past 55 years or so.
On edit, I thought the Beach Boys attained this level of vocal congruence. Frankie Valli and the 4 Seasons were pretty close too.
What happened to that musical moment?
