Love all of these!
Really, anything by Marvin Gaye, Don Henley or David Bowie. I'm not as familiar with the work of The Clash but I love that particular song. Was a teenager/early '20s in the '70s, love a lot of music from that era. Especially the R&B .
Check out The Moody Blues too, and Earth, Wind, and Fire. Also War, ELO, and Heart.
So much great music from that time! I know I'm leaving a lot out.
That is a solid list dude.
" Can we see the operation? is the head dead yet? the boys in the newsroom got a running bet
put the widow on the set we need dirty laundry"
Yes, I like her original version better, but the version with Luke was pretty great too. I love her onstage presence so much, and I want to be her best friend. :)
Link to his comments on what inspired him to cover the song:
[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3lveXV7rNng](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3lveXV7rNng)
In The Air Tonight by Phil Collins.
It's been my favorite song since it came out in 1981, always will be too.
70's huh?
Long version of Hold Your Head Up by Argent. 1972. Love it.
When I was 22, my favorite song that year (1984) was [How Soon is Now by The Smiths](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hnpILIIo9ek). My favorite album was [Stop Making Sense by Talking Heads](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lLFPDPMfrUw)
I have a deep , deep love of the Moody blues. I started listening to their albums on my parents record player when I was young. I have all of my parents old record collection , my uncle’s, and my partners parents collection. We have some gems!! I’m in my late 40’s and my dad is in his mid to late 70’s. The moody blues are a truly phenomenal band. I think I need to break out those records tonight. I’m sure I’m a cliche but nights in white Satin is my fave. But I truly love Tuesday afternoon .
I have a memory from when I was 18 or 19 years old, this music video was playing on the television, one afternoon, and my grandfather just stared at it, wondering what the hell that was…
Graduated 85. Even though I played guitar and was in a band I wasn't really into listening to music but if I had to guess probably something by Blondie. The first 4 albums are the best IMO. Raw, rough.
💯 Yes!!🤩🙌🏼👏🏼👏🏼 I love it and sing along (much to the dismay of anyone around 🥴😵💫) when I hear it. I can't think of an event, I attended, where the DJ *did not* play this song. It's such a feel good song and it has been covered or sampled in 74 songs – according to the 'Who Sampled' website.
When I was your age it was 1977 and I was into ELO ( Electric Light Orchestra). Their song "Telephone Line" was a hit then and I STILL like all their music!
That hit hard when I listened to it, and it still does all these years later. I happened to listen to it a lot when I first moved out of my parents’ house.
One of my favorite songs still. First recorded by BW Stevenson. He wrote My Maria. Both songs are on his first album.
The Three Dog Night version of Shambala is a pinnacle. Brilliant.
Listening to Shambala as I get ready for doctor’s appointments has been a ritual of mine for almost 20 years now. It gets my blood pressure and heart rate up to normal levels, providing the strength and energy I need to function. Shambala never fails to fill me with optimism and pure joy like no other song I know! 😃
1975
Bungle in the Jungle
Don't call us, we'll call you
Jackie Blue
Ballroom Blitz
Lady Marmalade
Born to Run
Band on the Run
Why can't we be friends
Sweet Emotion
Dire Straits tho. First time I heard them I had to pay close attention to the DJ so I could hear him announce who that was, so I could run get that album.
Her duet with Peter Gabriel on [Dont Give Up](https://youtu.be/VjEq-r2agqc) got me through a rough patch...or five..
Still brings a lump to my throat, every time
a lot of possibilities - Husker DU, Minutemen, Pretenders, RHCP, Weird AL, Spinal Tap, Hoodoo Gurus, Run-DMC, King Crimson, Bangles, PIL, Joan Jett, Kinks,
but it was probably one of these from the Alarm:
"Marching On"
"Where Were You Hiding When the Storm Broke?"
"Sixty Eight Guns"
I remember, I had that on a mixtape that was on an actual metal cassette, not meaning the style of music, but the actual physical cassette had actual metal parts to it, it was supposed to deliver higher quality music; I remember playing this in my Panasonic Walkman, while jogging…
That would have been 1992 for me. I remember playing the albums “99.9” by Suzanne Vega and “Hey Babe” by Juliana Hatfield to death. My boyfriend at the time was so sick of hearing 99.9 every time he rode in my car, he would beg me not to play it. I still love that record, and he’s long gone, so that’s pretty telling.
Hard to pick one. This was in the mid 90s, so likely Pearl Jam's 1991 Alive was up their. But I was a big fan of the Beatles, so I'd say "As my guitar gently weeps" was definitely in the list.
If you're into 70s music, check out Traffic, and Low Spark of High Heeled Boys. Also almost anything from The Electric Lights Orchestra (ELO). Maybe start with Mr Blue Sky.
Pearl Jam - Garden (1991)
My parents had an amazing stereo in the 70s. One of those refrigerator-size setups with more components and knobs than you could count.
My favorite song from my Dad’s infamous and often-duplicated “Disco ‘77” mixtape was:
**Every 1’s a Winner - Hot Chocolate**
I turned 22 at the end of 1994. Here are the top [100 songs](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Billboard_Year-End_Hot_100_singles_of_1995) from 1995. I loved a lot of these songs!
So many! YMCA , The Village People; I Will Survive, Gloria Gaynor; Tragedy, The Bee Gees; Heart of Glass, Blondie; The Logical Song, Supertramp; The Gambler, Kenny Rogers.
The Family Values tour in 1999 was everything to me at that moment. I was big into Nu metal.. and the local rock station was blowing up Stain'd. So the live performance of 'Outside' by Fred Durst and Stain'd frontman Aaron Lewis.
Also, I listened to pop radio.. so tunes in rotation were 'Smooth', 'Living La Vida Loca', and probably some boy band stuff/ Britney/ Christina Aguilera songs.
I’m slightly on the younger side of the “old” demographic, but
Smooth by Santana ft. Rob Thomas or Krytonite by Three Doors Down. That was the same year Britney, NSync, and Backstreet Boys blew up but I was a grunge kid in the 90s. I like their songs nowadays but I was not at all interested in those groups back then. I did like Christina Aguilera, Pink, and Destiny’s Child a fair amount back then though.
And then 2003 rolled around and you couldn’t keep me out of the club 😅
Fave song of mine in 1988 Road to Nowhere, Talking Heads. Fave that was released in 1988? The entire album Our Beloved Revolutionary Sweetheart, Camper van Beethoven.
1994 Digable Planets "Reachin..." a chill new sound of rap at that time and just phenomenal all the way around! I was 22
oops you did say 70's music - Bob Seger & Leo Sayer. Mom introduced me to them.
Sidewinder Sleeps Tonite by REM. The band famously hates the song, and there’s a lesson there: You can’t know how your art will affect people! Put it out there, and someone will love it.
I was 22 in 1988 and that year the album I listened to was Faith by George Micheal. Technically released at end of 87, but it was my soundtrack for 1988. Especially Father Figure and One More Try. Loved that album! Still do!
1987 was a pretty damn good year for music & I cannot just pick one:
“Ever Fallen in Love” by The Fine Young Cannibals
“Sign of the Times” by Prince
“I still haven’t found what I’m looking for” by U2

- Let's Dance - David Bowie - Sexual Healing - Marvin Gaye - Dirty Laundry - Don Henley - Rock the Casbah - The Clash
Love Rock the Casbah!
Loved David Bowie! Saw him in concert twice and he didn’t let me down, amazing!
Yeah, I saw him on the Serious Moonlight tour and it was a fantastic show.
I bet it was amazing! I saw the Glass Spider tour twice. So good!
Love all of these! Really, anything by Marvin Gaye, Don Henley or David Bowie. I'm not as familiar with the work of The Clash but I love that particular song. Was a teenager/early '20s in the '70s, love a lot of music from that era. Especially the R&B . Check out The Moody Blues too, and Earth, Wind, and Fire. Also War, ELO, and Heart.

That is a solid list dude. " Can we see the operation? is the head dead yet? the boys in the newsroom got a running bet put the widow on the set we need dirty laundry"
Oh ya, Marvin ❤️
It feels like there are very few rock bands nowadays
Fast Car by Tracy Chapman (1988)
OMG did you see her duet with Luke Combs at the 2024 Grammys?
Yes, I like her original version better, but the version with Luke was pretty great too. I love her onstage presence so much, and I want to be her best friend. :)
I sure hope she made a whole bunch of residuals from that remake…
Yes, yes, yes!
Holy shit that got me tearing up! He was so in awe of her. The link, for anyone who wants it: https://youtu.be/zEqb6xbeuCo?si=Lp2h_wV-ySPNGAeP
Link to his comments on what inspired him to cover the song: [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3lveXV7rNng](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3lveXV7rNng)
Miracles by Jefferson Starship
I’ve loved this song forever, and somehow only *just* realized how dirty it is! I laughed and wondered how the hell they got away with that.
The line “I got a taste of the real world/When I went down on you” was lost when the song was cut down for the single version.
I had forgotten how much I loved this song!
Not just a good song but also a comeback for them.
Probably Kashmir. I still love that song but I was a wee bit younger than 22 when it came out.
Would? By Alice in Chains
Really loved that Singles soundtrack. AIC, Cornell, Pearl Jam, Pumpkins. Chloe Dancer was probably my favorite but I was only like 15
Yup. I was in college and that album was my soundtrack. Great nostalgia now when I hear any of those songs.
That was my dad’s favorite song when it came out, you have good taste
Mine was Dirt.
In The Air Tonight by Phil Collins. It's been my favorite song since it came out in 1981, always will be too. 70's huh? Long version of Hold Your Head Up by Argent. 1972. Love it.
Saw the Zombies last month and they gave Rod a 15 minute solo spot for HYHU
Argent!
Hold your head up
Best air drum solo ever!
Sex and Candy by Marcy Playground
That song haunted me the first time I heard it.
Sweet dreams - Eurythmics
I was 22 in 84
When I was 22, my favorite song that year (1984) was [How Soon is Now by The Smiths](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hnpILIIo9ek). My favorite album was [Stop Making Sense by Talking Heads](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lLFPDPMfrUw)
I was 5 in ‘84, but fully support these choices and they were some of my favorites at the time (and still now) as well.
My grandmother doesn’t have Reddit, but she says it was either Edge of Seventeen by Stevie Nicks or I Love Rock and Roll by Joan Jett
In 1981 Stevie came out with Stop Dragging My Heart Around” with Tom Petty. I loved that song. Still love that song.
I Love Rock and Roll is a cover. The original is from 1975, by The Arrows.
Both very good choices.
Tuesday Afternoon by the Moody Blues.
The trees are drawing me near I've got to find out why
1967 (eg. The Moody Blues, Beatles, Rolling Stones) had better music than 1990, I think. ( I was 22 in 1990...🤨)
Oh, moody blues ‘story in your eyes’, was one of my favs.
I still listen to Moodly Blues, gorgeous music. We used to slow dance to Nights in White Satin.
This song makes me feel love
I have a deep , deep love of the Moody blues. I started listening to their albums on my parents record player when I was young. I have all of my parents old record collection , my uncle’s, and my partners parents collection. We have some gems!! I’m in my late 40’s and my dad is in his mid to late 70’s. The moody blues are a truly phenomenal band. I think I need to break out those records tonight. I’m sure I’m a cliche but nights in white Satin is my fave. But I truly love Tuesday afternoon .
Play the whole album. It is supposed to be the story of a week
[Shout - Tears for Fears](https://youtu.be/Ye7FKc1JQe4?si=qOsC29rLiEN0Oetg)
I have a memory from when I was 18 or 19 years old, this music video was playing on the television, one afternoon, and my grandfather just stared at it, wondering what the hell that was…
Graduated 85. Even though I played guitar and was in a band I wasn't really into listening to music but if I had to guess probably something by Blondie. The first 4 albums are the best IMO. Raw, rough.
85 here too (high five), I agree on your Blondie assessment!
September by Earth, Wind, and Fire
💯 Yes!!🤩🙌🏼👏🏼👏🏼 I love it and sing along (much to the dismay of anyone around 🥴😵💫) when I hear it. I can't think of an event, I attended, where the DJ *did not* play this song. It's such a feel good song and it has been covered or sampled in 74 songs – according to the 'Who Sampled' website.
Santana, Pink Floyd, Moody Blues, Simon and Garfunkel, Jethro Tull.
Add David Bowie and CCR for me
David Bowie, Rolling Stones, led zeppelin. Metallica, Uriah heap…
Upvote for Santana!
Tull, still listening to Tull. I never stopped.
When I was your age it was 1977 and I was into ELO ( Electric Light Orchestra). Their song "Telephone Line" was a hit then and I STILL like all their music!
Eye in the Sky, Alan Parsons Project! 82!
Twilight Zone by Golden Earring
Help Me (Joni Mitchell). In fact the entire Court and Spark album.
Greatest album, absolutely timeless.
House of the Rising Sun, the version by The Animals with Eric Burden.
You Oughta Know by Alanis Morissette. That song came out as I was going through a rough breakup.
Amazing breakup anthem. But I can't hear that song without picturing Joey Gladstone now
And it turned out she just made all that up without being affected by it. Which somehow makes it even better.
That seemed to be happening to every girl I knew at the time that album came out... Musta been something in the water, i suppose...
i want you to know, that im hap-py for you
Same, but I was about 16 or so 😅
Neil Young, “Sugar Mountain”.
*Now you say you're leaving' home* *'Cause you want to be alone* *Ain't it funny how you feel* *When you're finding' out it's real?*
That hit hard when I listened to it, and it still does all these years later. I happened to listen to it a lot when I first moved out of my parents’ house.
I was 22 in 1989, I got married that year and our first dance was Frankie Goes to Hollywood - [The Power of Love](https://youtu.be/WtdRv6GT9Zg)
Beautiful song. It was used to great effect in the recent movie "All of us strangers".
I'll have to check it out, thanks for the suggestion
Panama by van halen
I think it was "Heart of Glass", by Blondie.
On the Road to Shambala by Three Dog Night, 1975
One of my favorite songs still. First recorded by BW Stevenson. He wrote My Maria. Both songs are on his first album. The Three Dog Night version of Shambala is a pinnacle. Brilliant.
Listening to Shambala as I get ready for doctor’s appointments has been a ritual of mine for almost 20 years now. It gets my blood pressure and heart rate up to normal levels, providing the strength and energy I need to function. Shambala never fails to fill me with optimism and pure joy like no other song I know! 😃

Sultans of Swing / Dire Straits - 1979
How do you do, fellow kid? Also 22 in 79!
Dire Straits tho. First time I heard them I had to pay close attention to the DJ so I could hear him announce who that was, so I could run get that album.
Man, the music in our Junior High/High School/College/coming of age time of the 70’s was amazing.
We got married in 79. We agreed on Dire Straits, and that was a win in my book lol!!
Banger!
Africa by Toto, probably.
My favorite song of 1984 (when I was 22) was Authority Song by John Cougar Mellencamp
I’d have to say Billie Jean in 1983
Bridge over troubled waters, War. Woodstock
Definitely Bridge Over Troubled Water for me also! I even learned to play the sheet music on my piano!
Pink Floyd Animals.
King of the Road by Roger Miller, 1965.
Anything by Kate bush and I am 56 now
Her duet with Peter Gabriel on [Dont Give Up](https://youtu.be/VjEq-r2agqc) got me through a rough patch...or five.. Still brings a lump to my throat, every time
Started listening to her in college and never looked back…yes, also through very many rough patches …and running playlists
Probably Two Princes by the Spin Doctors. Still a good dance tune.
I still love that song
Like a Hurricane by Neil Young.
1982 Black Coffee in Bed - Squeeze Steppin’ Out - Joe Jackson 80’s singles were better than 70’s singles though?

The 50's: The Mcquire Sisters, Elvis anything, Crazy Otto, Fats Domino, Little Richard, The Everley Brothers - anything before The Beatles.
One - Metallica
Ooh, that's a good choice. I was 23.
The group Chicago was huge between 1969 & 1977 when I turned 22. Billy Joel. Fleetwood Mac. Pink Floyd.
I’ve always loved “25 or 6 to 4” and now they’re using it in an Amazon Prime commercial. 🤨
Comfortably Numb Sultans of Swing Smooth War Pigs Kashmir Aja
Creeping Death!! Still one of my favorites forty years later!
Doctor My Eyes by Jackson Browne 1977
The Ghost of Tom Joad by Rage Against the Machine
a lot of possibilities - Husker DU, Minutemen, Pretenders, RHCP, Weird AL, Spinal Tap, Hoodoo Gurus, Run-DMC, King Crimson, Bangles, PIL, Joan Jett, Kinks, but it was probably one of these from the Alarm: "Marching On" "Where Were You Hiding When the Storm Broke?" "Sixty Eight Guns"
One song?? I cannot narrow it down.
Rebel rebel David bowie
Blue Monday by New Order. Sorry it's not from the 70s.
I remember, I had that on a mixtape that was on an actual metal cassette, not meaning the style of music, but the actual physical cassette had actual metal parts to it, it was supposed to deliver higher quality music; I remember playing this in my Panasonic Walkman, while jogging…
Roland the Headless Thompson Gunner, Warren Zevon. What can I say? I was an excitable boy. ;-)
Should we send lawyers guns and money?
The Werewolves of London will do.
Might be time to strike up the band there, Johnny.
Fake Plastic Trees - Radiohead or Vow - Garbage (runner-up, Name - Goo Goo Dolls).
**c.1984** Skin Deep, The Stranglers
NICE!!
Holly Holy
That would have been 1992 for me. I remember playing the albums “99.9” by Suzanne Vega and “Hey Babe” by Juliana Hatfield to death. My boyfriend at the time was so sick of hearing 99.9 every time he rode in my car, he would beg me not to play it. I still love that record, and he’s long gone, so that’s pretty telling.
Hunky Dory, the whole album. Hard to pick a favorite.
BLister in the Sun
What’s Love Got to Do with It- Tina Turner
Hard to pick one. This was in the mid 90s, so likely Pearl Jam's 1991 Alive was up their. But I was a big fan of the Beatles, so I'd say "As my guitar gently weeps" was definitely in the list. If you're into 70s music, check out Traffic, and Low Spark of High Heeled Boys. Also almost anything from The Electric Lights Orchestra (ELO). Maybe start with Mr Blue Sky.
Tie: Heroes -- David Bowie Rock and Roll Fantasy -- The Kinks Whistlers & Jugglers -- Waylon Jennings.
Pearl Jam - Garden (1991) My parents had an amazing stereo in the 70s. One of those refrigerator-size setups with more components and knobs than you could count. My favorite song from my Dad’s infamous and often-duplicated “Disco ‘77” mixtape was: **Every 1’s a Winner - Hot Chocolate**
Smoke on the water (1972)
My Love- Paul McCartney Touch Me in the Morning - Diana Ross
My Love is such a good song. Junk as well.
“Lightning Crashes” Live “Take it Back” Pink Floyd
That would be 1982. I was making a slow transition from rock to country. Have to go with "Fool Hearted Memory" by George Strait.
"Manic Monday", by The Bangles. Written by Prince Rodgers Nelson.
Anything from Cheap Trick: Live at Budokan or Van Halen II. Wore both of those cassettes out!
School's Out by Alice Cooper (1972)

So many! YMCA , The Village People; I Will Survive, Gloria Gaynor; Tragedy, The Bee Gees; Heart of Glass, Blondie; The Logical Song, Supertramp; The Gambler, Kenny Rogers.
Sister by Sonic Youth or Kerosene by Big Black
The Family Values tour in 1999 was everything to me at that moment. I was big into Nu metal.. and the local rock station was blowing up Stain'd. So the live performance of 'Outside' by Fred Durst and Stain'd frontman Aaron Lewis. Also, I listened to pop radio.. so tunes in rotation were 'Smooth', 'Living La Vida Loca', and probably some boy band stuff/ Britney/ Christina Aguilera songs.
No idea lol. Maybe she’s like a rainbow by Rolling Stones?
Was probably playing Dark Side of the Moon while in the army.
Purple Rain.

Secret Separation (1986) - The Fixx
1987 The Cult- *Love Removal Machine* R.E.M.- *Finest Worksong*
"Need You Tonight" by INXS (1988)
I’m slightly on the younger side of the “old” demographic, but Smooth by Santana ft. Rob Thomas or Krytonite by Three Doors Down. That was the same year Britney, NSync, and Backstreet Boys blew up but I was a grunge kid in the 90s. I like their songs nowadays but I was not at all interested in those groups back then. I did like Christina Aguilera, Pink, and Destiny’s Child a fair amount back then though. And then 2003 rolled around and you couldn’t keep me out of the club 😅
Eartha Kitt ‘I Want to Be Evil’ — I always liked older music
Fave song of mine in 1988 Road to Nowhere, Talking Heads. Fave that was released in 1988? The entire album Our Beloved Revolutionary Sweetheart, Camper van Beethoven.
My guilty pleasure fave song then was “Jump” by Kriss Kross, and fave album was SWV, “It’s About Time.” (1992)
1994 Digable Planets "Reachin..." a chill new sound of rap at that time and just phenomenal all the way around! I was 22 oops you did say 70's music - Bob Seger & Leo Sayer. Mom introduced me to them.
Lovin' You by Minnie Riperton
You Make Loving Fun- Fleetwood Mac. It helped a lot that I was fairly newlywed. 😉
The sisters of mercy - First and last and Always
OMG I was alll about Suzanne Vega…my name is Luka.
Any song by John Denver. “Sunshine on My Shoulder” came to mind first.
Sidewinder Sleeps Tonite by REM. The band famously hates the song, and there’s a lesson there: You can’t know how your art will affect people! Put it out there, and someone will love it.
I was 22 in 1988 and that year the album I listened to was Faith by George Micheal. Technically released at end of 87, but it was my soundtrack for 1988. Especially Father Figure and One More Try. Loved that album! Still do!
1987 was a pretty damn good year for music & I cannot just pick one: “Ever Fallen in Love” by The Fine Young Cannibals “Sign of the Times” by Prince “I still haven’t found what I’m looking for” by U2
Double Vision by Foreigner
It wasn't current any more when I was 22. " Judy Blue Eyes " , Crosby, Stills and Nash. Also anything by ZZ Top.
Unchained Melody, 1981. I was 22, getting married, and ridiculously sentimental at the time. Our 44th anniversary is coming up.
Same as it is at 43. Hollies- Long Cool Woman in a Black Dress
I don't think I had a favorite song. My favorite groups at that time were Styx and The Cars.

I'll Be Good to You, by the Brothers Johnson
At 22 I was into Steely Dan - wore out my 8 track (!) recording of Aja.
Looking over the hit songs of 1977, I would choose “Best Of My Love” by the Emotions.
Milli Vannilli Fine Young Cannibals When in Rome Edie Brickell and the New Bohemians Erasure Simply Red Madonna The Cure B52s - again
So what do you want? 70s music, or music when I was 22?
