Corner Of The Sky J5That would be my guess. Of course, there's always 'I Guess I'll Miss The Man' [[I guess they missed the hit ...)

Very good ! :)

The answer is The Jackson Five's version of CORNER OF THE SKY from PIPPIN which reached number 18 on Billboard's Hot 100 [[released October 1972), making it the #29 ranking musical theater song to appear on Billboard's HOT 100.
