We’re back again with our new weekly series where we highlight the top songs over the last 50 years that start with a specific letter of the alphabet. Now we’ve reached the letter “C”. This week’s list includes an ode to the Golden State, a George Clinton classic, and a tune from our favorite gentleman. Don’t agree with us on our selections? That’s cool. Just leave your comments below, and don’t forget we’ll be doing the letter “D” next Friday. So if there’s a song you think deserves a slot, give us a shout.

Jump below to see the best “C” songs (and one very special honorable mention) over the last 50 years.

60’s – “California Dreamin'” – The Mamas And The Papas

70’s – “Can You Get To That?” – Funkadelic
