It should say something that songs 1,2 & 3 of each year are all gone. We have three #4s and a #5. That’s like having an NCAA Final 4 with no Dukes, Carolinas or Kentuckys but a bunch of Butlers and Gonzagas.
I really like all four songs and so I am going to sit out the rest of the contest. I can live with any of the four finalists and yet none would be my personal choice for the best (or most representative) song of this multi-faceted decade, one that featured some of the greatest highs (moon landing) and lows (war, assassinations) in our nation’s history.

It has been kind of odd, but it's not shocking in my experience that what's considered the #1 song of a year is knocked out by a #7, let's say. After all, being in the top 100 for the YEAR is quite an accomplishment. If you go by what's strictly most popular, then my original '80s poll went even odder (although so far I'm better with the ending, personally). Only 1 top 3 out of the Final 4. How's that? The '70s so far has been the only one with satisfying results, especially in the Final.
