TOURNAMENT OF CHART-TOPPERS 1970S PING LIST
(This is a temporary ping list, so don’t worry!)

ROUND 6! Songs of the FINAL 4! Pick one per pair!

Format: Billboard rank/seed - year - song title - act

1 1971 “Joy to the World” Three Dog Night
3 1972 “American Pie” Don McLean

2 1975 “Rhinestone Cowboy” Glen Campbell
4 1978 “Stayin’ Alive” Bee Gees

I like Joy to the world, but American Pie brings back more better memories.

I like Glen Campbell too only the Bee Gee's Stayin' Alive again represents great late 70's memories, while Glen's material was on the radio when my mom was mopping the kitchen floor.

I like all these songs, but Joy is easily the weakest in my view. In fact, while I’ve voted for it later (early I did not), I think it is the worst 3-Dog Night hit. It’s OK but it doesn’t get me like their other goofy hits! Yet you’d think it was their only hit the way radio plays it today.

*****OK, everyone, still looking for more votes as it looks like there is a tie! Let’s see if we can break it before round’s end! Slackers make a pick!
