As you can see,I love MOSt of those songs The quality of pop music was amazing back then!! 30 years later,I'm still listening and enjoying these songs.Of course,some of these songs are what I would call 'guilty pleasures' (""Lonely Boy" by Andrew Gold...."Ain't Gonna Bump No More" by Joe Tex) but even these songs are more fun than the lame crap that dominates the charts today.


Who remembers "You Made Me Believe In Magic" by Bay City Rollers?? A nice,breezy,slighty disco pop song Love that one!

"Whatcha Gonna Do" by Pablo Cruise gives me a funny feeling of deja vu when I hear it.That song is sooooo 1977!! It feels like the late 70s (if that makes any sense,lol).

NO Slide by Slave. That was in 77 wasn't it.

I love just about all of those songs

Star Wars Theme-Cantina Band, Meco

now thats the list.... seeing those titles brings backs sooooo many memories

SoulAlive said:

y'think?

"Angel In Your Arms" by Hot

the times you said you weren't feeling well
Did you think I couldn't tell
You were with someone else
You were only kidding yourself

When I first found out,I hurt all over
I felt so left out til I got to know her
So I tried the way that she got over
and I became just like her....so don't be surprised to find

the angel in your arms this morning
is gonna be the devil in someone else's arms tonight
the angel in your arms this morning
is gonna be the devil in someone else's arms tonight

I absolutely loved him!!! My very first crush.

And not a single Punk or New Wave band.

I love u NWF, ur a real character.

7. Don't Leave Me This Way, Thelma Houston
8. (Your Love Has Lifted Me) Higher And Higher, Rita Coolidge
12. Dancing Queen, Abba
14. Margaritaville, Jimmy Buffet
18. Sir Duke, Stevie Wonder
19. Hotel California, Eagles Most overrated song ever?
20. Got To Give It Up, Pt. 1, Marvin Gaye
26. Car Wash, Rose Royce
39. Dreams, Fleetwood Mac
41. Dazz, Brick
51. I Wish, Stevie Wonder
52. Don't Stop, Fleetwood Mac

Wow, what an amazing list. When you see a list like this it makes you sick to think of the crap that's on the charts today. Ok, I'll admit, I hated Muskrat Love, but the rest are great songs.
