I've never thought of it as one of my favourite years for music (baseball and film, yes), but six I love on this list: 1. "Roadrunner," 2. "Cortez the Killer," 3. "I Love Music," 4. "Make Me Smile (Come Up and See Me)," 5. "Gloria," 6. "Tangled Up in Blue."

Kashmir

― cock chirea, Thursday, 21 November 2013 03:51 (eleven years ago)

I will once again rep for 10cc's "I'm Not In Love", such an epic pop song.

2 44 Queen - Bohemian Rhapsody
9 430 David Bowie - Young Americans
11 595 10cc - I'm Not in Love

this list or 1975 >>>>> 1976.

― Bee OK, Thursday, 21 November 2013 05:33 (eleven years ago)

Every one of these is pretty great. A heck of a mix tape. Who can pick one?
Maybe Abba, Bee Gees, Roxy Music, 10CC, Richman? Voted Harold Melvin for no real reason, other than it being real good.

― jetfan, Thursday, 21 November 2013 05:43 (eleven years ago)

Parliament

― Montgomery Burns' Jazz (Tarfumes The Escape Goat), Thursday, 21 November 2013 06:06 (eleven years ago)

fantastic list but it wasn't hard for me to pick "Bohemian Rhapsody"

― g simmel, Friday, 22 November 2013 02:42 (eleven years ago)

so this is the last one for a couple weeks as next week i'm taking off because of Thanksgiving.

― Bee OK, Saturday, 23 November 2013 03:08 (eleven years ago)

so it is either "Roadrunner." "Kashmir," "Love Is the Drug," "I'm Not in Love," "Love to Love You Baby," " Tear the Roof Off the Sucker (Give Up the Funk)," "That's the Way (I Like It)," "Rhiannon," "Shining Star," or "Cortez the Killer."

― Bee OK, Sunday, 24 November 2013 00:59 (eleven years ago)

I voted Jive Talkin'. This is a very solid selection, Bruce excepted.

Automatic thread bump. This poll is closing tomorrow.

I made a 1975 playlist last week - lots of overlap but other stuff too, including what would have been my #1: Radioactivity. Went for Cortez instead.
