I like to think of myself as one of the hits of the 1970s. :D

Here's a rousing defense of President Nixon that came out as the Watergate crisis was reaching its climax. Frankie Yankovic and his Yanks, a famous band in the world of polka dancing backs up Bernie Knee, who had headed the group the Five Blobs and scored with
The Blob, one of Burt Bacharach and Hal David's first hits, in 1958.
Hang In There, Mr. President--Bernie Knee (1974)

In 1979, cars were lining up at gas stations nationwide thanks to an oil shortage brought on by the Islamist revolution in Iran. It is said that Bobby "So Fine" Butler was peddling his record to drivers sitting in the gas lines. In any case, it became a local hit in Los Angeles.

Calling Out to God
Turn to me and be gracious to me, for I am lonely and afflicted.
Psalm 25:16 Adopted for Life, Dr. Russell Moore describes his family’s trip to an orphanage to adopt a child. As they entered the nursery, the silence was startling. The babies in the cribs never cried, and it wasn’t because they never needed anything but because they’d learned that no one cared enough to answer.
My heart ached as I read those words. I remember countless nights when our children were small. My wife and I would be sound asleep only to be startled awake by their cries: “Daddy, I’m sick!” or “Mommy, I’m scared!” One of us would spring into action and make our way to their bedroom to do our best to comfort and care for them. Our love for our children gave them reason to call for our help.
An overwhelming number of the psalms are cries, or laments, to God. Israel brought their laments to Him on the basis of His personal relationship with them. These were a people God had called His “firstborn” (Exodus 4:22) and they were asking their Father to act accordingly. Such honest trust is seen in Psalm 25: “Turn to me and be gracious to me, . . . free me from my anguish” (vv. 16–17). Children who are confident of the love of a caregiver do cry. As believers in Jesus—children of God—He’s given us reason to call on Him. He hears and cares because of His great love. .
Reflect & Pray
How comfortable are you taking your cries to God? Why? How might you offer up a lament to Him today?
Heavenly Father, thank You so much for Your faithfulness to hear my cry and to act.

A big hit in NATO Europe in the spring of '72, but it didn't even chart over here. However, it has become a bestseller in the Internet era.

This is a ballad of a drug user who dies of an overdose, sung to the tune of "The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down." Contrast tunes like this with songs like "Itchycoo Park," "Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds," and other paeans to psychotropic drugs from the late sixties. Even though I've heard it dozens of times over the past five decades, I still find it moving.
