Thanks for this great compilation. I was in a bar next to where Donna Summer was performing and she came in and started throwing a fit about 'don't you people know who I am?'. I then saw Daryl Hall perform and when he sang Sara he was crying and got down on hands and knees and was beating the stage while singing. We were like 'wow something is going on here'. The drummer from the Romantics was a great guy (he got me free tickets)!
....I remember, in the 70's, reaching to change the radio station in record time when "Little Willie" and "My Ding-a ling" came on....eeek!....then there's real music.... Kansas, the Eagles and ELO!
Hey score I hear you...I want to go back as well.......But we do have this...I am a middle aged mom.....and my kids are yelling at me.....Turn the music down,,because I keep coming back here to youtube to the 70's oldies,,,,,Thanks for the posts....We can still go back there I have been home all day listening to oldies....Have fun!
@Kathyscv Oh gosh Kathy , I know what you mean , I miss those days myself, we had our problems then but the music made up for a dozen times over, God bless rock and roll!
@EnglshRoc In my opinion, you've got a point. In my opinion, due to today's UNFORTUNATE "decline in GENUINE or RARE music," the '70s AND '80s sound BETTER THAN EVER!
The seventies where music and artists were not factory manufactured to be cute and sticky sweet like today. Real music with real people singing their own music. Shame we all had to grow old and have to deal with the changing times and little in the way of good songs.
@dee63628 Sure, the African American population migrated from known for Funk to known for Rap, and then the little white kids are sucked in, trying to be gangsters, listening to the trashy Rap songs that talk only about sex, money, and drugs with words so vulgar they make me wonder if their parents know what they're listening to, but I am only 13 but I am lucky enough to KNOW these songs are the best there ever was. I only wish more people would get it. I agree with your statement.
@thekamelkamel "TSOP (The Sound of Philadelphia)" is a 1974 hit recording by MFSB (Mother, Father, Sister, Brother) featuring vocals by The Three Degrees. A classic example of the Philadelphia soul genre, it was written by Kenneth Gamble and Leon Huff as the theme for the American musical television program Soul Train, which specialized in African-American musical performers. The single was released on the Philadelphia International label.
@astaroth333777 you are right about the music.. such memories.. Used to love music... I never even turn the radio on ever........ Loved Grease ohhh ohhh ohhh
PLEASE go to my favs and click on SUBURBAN GUY ROCKIN OUT
he doesnt read music, really feels what he plays and improivses his songs as he goes along. the other 2 favs are him also ARIEL (awesome shredding) and ARIEL SIMANTOV (awesome sweeping) pls view comment and rate them as we think he deserves recognition .thanks everyone!
I know some of the artists but would like the names of the songs (especialy the jackson 5 song and "you've got a friend"). thanks if you could. More is great! Who's the king who gets the queen play with his Ding A Ling? him too. thanks man always in pursuit for the real music fuck money and mainstream.
Macarthur's Park has got to be one of the most um....weirdest....everybody wondering what in the world is it about....songs I have ever heard in my life!!!!!! But Donna Summer was always ok- now she is a Christian and I am too!
hey! thanks for the info....do you like the song? well, that sure is odd-do you know if anything was written on it, like 'Happy Birthday' or someone's name- maybe someone sat it down while they did something and then forgot it...I don't think I would write a song about a cake left in a park... that is weird in itself, if you ask me (nothing against Donna, of course)!!! :)
@crazyhorse99999... thanks- that makes sense- kinda felt that it was something like that after the fact... but it is very strange to me and alot of people- you know, Donna is still singing these days.... take care :)
@scorefor4 quit your fu cking whining dude. you can't be 19 forever. I am 22 and when I am "old" like you I am not going to bitch on websites about it. Get a fucking wife, a life, put down some roots and find meaning in life. you are sucked into society's obsession with youthfulness...contribute to the fucking world and widen your focus...you are hung up on age issues and it is fucking sad.
who did the song Louie, Louie, Louie, Loue i ? I can't find it . And is that the name? If you scroll to the Y on playlist then press play, you'll be at the song
It was a different world back then kids. The music,the politics,gas shortages,cigarettes were 35 cents a pack,we never dreamed gasoline would be higher than 80 cents a gallon.The good ole days !
Haha, I agree! Or at least write songs that had as much passion... I wanna kick people when I think of the crap that my generation and younger ones are accepting as musical talent these days. It gives me this eerie Stepford vibe.
I'm specifically referring to the "Stepford Wives" film (1975). The basic idea applies. There's just an emptiness that seems to pervade the music world today, like it's more about appearances and fitting in. In the end it's all just there to serve the interests of big corporations. There's no passion, individual nuance, or creativity. It's all empty smiles and perfectly-coiffed hair (or empty sneers and perfectly-mussed hair, for the less mainstream, emo/scenester kids). Puke.
the great 70's-need to add more 70's videos if possible- once again good job- if you can find full versions of these songs, would love to see them. please respond
