Let Your Love Flow
If You Could Read My Mind
We have another winner!
Nope. “Escape (The Pina Colada Song),” every copy of which should be tracked down, smashed into pieces, and then shoveled into a raging blast furnace! :mad:
My nomination is “Nice to be With You” by Gallery. First one that popped into my head when I saw the question. I also considered “Love Will Keep Us Together” by the Captain and Tenille.
“Uncle Albert/Admiral Halsey”
What would the 70s be without “I am Woman” by Helen Reddy?
So we’re going BAD in this thread I take it?
psstt…see post 48 
It’s an official tie.
mic dropped.
That weak-ass guitar lick played to death in Pina Coloda is enough to make someone have a non-stop brain aneurysm.
“Clap For the Wolfman” by The Guess Who, to get the Fifties revival thing the Seventies had for a while.
“Our House” by Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young and “Kid Charlemagne” by Steely Dan, for all the people who used to paint the face before they joined the human race.
“The Revolution Will Not Be Televised” by Gil Scott-Heron, because it was, and a lot of people were frightened, and we got a whole lot of movies out of it.
Eh. Nothing else comes to mind as quintessential. I mainly put “Our House” in because I can’t listen to it without seeing that soft-focus warmly-lit brown style which is perhaps the most quintessentially Seventies thing of all.
CS&N did “Our House”?!?!?
…in all honesty I had no idea. Actually 'I’ve never had any idea who sang that :eek:
That was Madness
I can’t believe that I forgot “Band on the Run”! A great 1970s song!
Sylvia’s Mother.
Layla (Derek and the Dominos)
Witchy Woman (Eagles)
Low Spark of High Heeled Boys (Traffic)
Theme from Taxi
Theme from Shaft
They did, “Our house is a very very very fine house”, two cats in the yard, etc.
Madness did, “Our house, in the middle of our street”. was our castle and our keep, etc.
Shut your mouth!
Yeppers.
I have to disagree. While certainly a '70s song, as a New Jersey teenager in the '80s I wanted to get the hell out of that state. Nothing uniquely '70s about that sentiment.
