Tough to pick Bee Gees over The Knack but "Stayin' Alive" is the quintessential 70s song. Wouldn't be surprised to see this come out number one.

Ironic because that Knack song almost singlehandedly killed disco and ended the BeeGees long string of big hits. But I will never think of the Knack as a 70s band.
