I agree, and neither does 'American Pie'
I think "American Pie" was played way too much after the 70s and lost some of it's 70s association. So "Joy to the World" still brings back memories of the 70s for me.

"Stayin' Alive" is the perennial 70s song. You just can't get more 70s than the BeeGees.

And I still like both of those songs.

Freeze a Yankee by the Folkel Minority (1977)
Freeze A Yankee,
Drive 75 and freeze 'em alive
Freeze a Yankee
Let your thermostat rise and give 'em a surprise
Governor Briscoe promised us
that if any damn Yankee raised a fuss,
Hed turn off the gas, cut off the oil, v and let 'em all freeze and boilv
They dont want an oil rig
around their seashore
Lord, its a terrible sight
And dont you try to drill
in their dirty old water
if you do, youre in for a fight
Senator Kennedy told me himself
That he wouldnt let us drill
on the continental shelf
So, when they tried to get
Texas to drill another well
We could tell them all to go to...
Hyannisport!
Now, President Carter was a good ole boy
A southerner thru and thru,
But when he asked
all Americans to sacrifice,
He really meant
you know who
He wants all our oil
And our nuclear fuels
What does he take us for?
Silly fools?
The President wants us to pass our gas
Now ain't that a kick in the..
Freeze A Yankee
Drive 75 and freeze 'em alive
Freeze a Yankee
Let your thermostat rise and give 'em a surprise
Governor Briscoe promised us
that if any damn Yankee raised a fuss,
Hed turn off the gas, cut the oil,
and let 'em all freeze and boil
Cram them Yankees in little bitty cars
While we drive around in limousines
There aint nothing in the world any more fun
Than pumpin gas in those big Mochines.
Us Texans love our Cadillacs,
Big Continentals and Pontiacs
Were gonna keep all the gas we can make
And let them Yankees shiver and shake
Well, them Yankees say they need our oil
And they gotta have gasoline
But dont you put no refineries way up north
They wanna keep their air real clean
They only got enough lignite
To last until midnight
Not enough fuel
to keep their beer real cool
But we'll send you lots of oil, now don't you fear
If you promise not to move down here
Freeze A Yankee
Drive 75 and freeze 'em alive
Freeze a Yankee
Let your thermostat rise and give 'em a surprise
Governor Briscoe promised us
that if any damn Yankee raised a fuss,
Hed turn off the gas, cut the oil,
and let 'em all freeze and boil.
Freeze A Yankee
Hallelujah
Save your Confederate credit cards
The South is going to rise again!
In the long run, arrogance does not pay.
