Everybody's coming up with the best songs, what about the worst ones? For me that would be tie between Disco Duck and Feelings. Some things do not improve with age.

While I loved many songs from the 70's, listening to them now often makes me feel sad. I don't know why? Here are a few that really take me back:
It Never Rains in Southern California by Albert Hammond Behind Closed Doors by Charlie Rich Most Beautiful Girl in the World by Charlie Rich I still love the last two songs because my DH loved them, sang them to me and told me each time he heard them that they were his favorites because the songs made him think of me. He still tells me that. Isn't that wonderful? :):):) |

I am from the class of '74. The song that defines boys of that era for me is, "jump in my car" by the ted mullary gang,
it is definately an aussie song, but still makes me laugh! my favourite 70's songs are many....but I was in love with cat stevens. pink floyd....a great band...dark side of the moon....classic bee gees ....another great band with so many great songs dolly parton....my all time favourite female singer olivia newton john.....numerous very good songs too eagles, elton john, america, crosby steels and nash, slade, deep purple....and the list goes on |
Paradise by the dashboard light by meatloaf always gets me going
|
Remember that Stayin' Alive is the recommended beat for doing CPR. Not kidding. That's what we were told when we took a refresher class a year ago! Maybe that's because Travolta lives in this town. Just sayin.' Did you have any SUpremes(Stop! In the Name of Love) or how about Beatles...That was a great era in music.
|
Wow. All good stuff. I graduated in 1970 so all these are from my teenage years.
|
Ugly, ugly, ugly, still makes my skin crawl: "I'm not in love" by 10cc ...as for the other suggestions, they're all great. I'd never be able to choose, But the ugly part I've got down pat.

One day I asked him to sing Country Roads for Grampa...... He said no. I shamelessly bribed him with a dollar. Again he said No. So I lost all my scruples and said I would give him 2 dollars......his reply......... No Gramma, I don't need the money!! And went off to play. LOL |
