Songs From The 1970s

Saw this idea on Stuff recently. I researched more than the Wikipedia people seemed to. Finding the Utube links better than they had :) some are newer than 1970. I dont think this seemed much. Upon to listening to one of them it sounded very much the same.

I was born in 1970

The first three songs are from that year for children :)

1 "ABC-DEF-GHI" is a song sung by Big Bird of Sesame Street.

2 "Bein' Green" is a popular song written by Joe Raposo in 1970 for the first season of the children's television program Sesame Street and it was performed by Kermit the Frog

3 "House at Pooh Corner" Nitty Gritty Dirt Band

The Top 10 In My Humble Opinion

1 "Have You Ever Seen the Rain?" John Fogerty.

2 Big Yellow Taxi by Joni Mitchell.

3. "Country Comfort" Elton John

4 "Country Road" James Taylor I have loved James Taylor for years and he reminds me of my lovely bro-in-law (who has a very similar hair style). This song also has an interesting story behind it. Apparently James suffered depression and this is a song is a reflection upon the road that lead up to the hospital where he admitted himself. I admire people who make depression acceptable :) and make something of themselves despite it.

6 "Every Night" Paul McCartney My favourite Beatle :)

7 Moonshadow" by Cat Stevens his best song ever I reckon. It apparently is Cat Stevens favorite of his old songs

8 Moondance" Van Morrison

9 "Help Me Make It Through the Night" Kris Kristofferson

10 L.A. International Airport is a song written by Leanne Scott here is Susan Raye's version I remember singing this. I think we learnt it at school. I enjoyed singing at school. This video is a good watch for people like my friend Amy who likes retro stuff
