  • @adonis2112 Paper Lace's management advised them NOT to record it. They SOLD it. Historical ballads were "out." When this one hit, they wrote "The Night Chicago Died."

  • selfish bitch!

  • They shamelessly stole this song from English band Paper Lace. Surprised that they got away with it. Great song though.

  • @hotdog2020 : and yet if it wasn't for the war referenced in this song, you'd need a passport to go to Atlanta. Whether that'd be a good thing or a bad thing is up in the air perhaps, but the point is clear -- sometimes wars have to be fought.

  • Two days after my brother and I were born--but it still counts as the same week, I guess... *sigh* I hate this song...!

  • @tryby12 June 15 - June 22

  • this was the number one song when i was born...

  • The #1 song when I was born on June 23, 1974

  • Does anyone know where all the original members are now? I was in love with the lead singer--I know they are from Cincinnati
