Thank you very much and God bless you.
If I recall correctly, this was of the time of the “2nd British Rock Invasion”. Much better than the first. I can see several such songs.
Of course with music much is opinion.
I only know a few of those and I was 26 and a newlywed.
Does anybody alive refer to the pop music charts anymore. I doubt it.
I never listened to any of that stuff on the that chart. You guys never heard of country?

I live just South of Nashville.
Parents had old country. Merle, Ray Price, Cash etc. But mom also liked Elvis, Beatles and such. I was a Monkee fan as a kid.
Some country today is so so. .I liked Toby.
Music stopped being made in 1978. Then disco destroyed it all. Plus...the Beatles sucked.
I could pretty much listen to all of that except Sussudio.
Sorry Phil, but that song drove me up the wall.
It was this kind of music that put disco back where it belonged.
In obscurity.
Aimee Mann with that beautiful frame, face, and voice. Til Tuesday rocked!!
Better than today, but still crappy for the most part.
Several of these I despised at the time, but now the nostalgia is so strong I kind of like them.
My 1985 summer was a very weird planet.
You are, I think, being too generous. The cut-off date for me is somewhere around 1970, before the British Invasion completely ruined everything. But as usual, your mileage may vary.
And now a word from Johnny Cash (1963):
Top 100 singles for the week of June 16, 1979
Some weekly charts have more than 100 songs.
If it’s not Merle, Marty, Mac or Johnny, no.
But can you dance?
Yeah
/currently playing Wicked Game on endless loop and I don’t know why
I lived through disco. The only thing good about that era was that nobody had cell phones so there is no photographic or video evidence that can be used against me.
