I keep telling anyone who won't listen, the 70s were the height of human civilization no doubt, music included.

Thanks for playing this! Way back when, I brought this cool piece of vinyl to a party and never saw it again. Good party, though!

Brought the laptop out into the garage to finish working on my bikes.
Neighbor/rental handyman heard this and said "Wow, ain't heard this in years. What station did you say this was?"
The following Arcade Fire tune got "Now I don't know who that is...but it's not bad"

This sounds nothing like The BeeGees.  It was also released before Saturday Night Fever.

Man, come on!! What's up with all the "let's check each others ratings and prove our points that way"... Music is purely a matter of taste, so what if he thinks DB's Heroes is a 1, that doesn't have anything to do with this song....

Just stick to your own ratings, discuss all you want about people's comments on a song, but don't use their ratings as a tool....

 

Thank you sir! I have made that point to him, but he is just mad cause I don't like Pearl Jam.{#Lol}

OMG...I'm trapped in a time warp...after reconnecting with an old friend from the 70's and now this!  This song played non-stop in Texas during the 70's...yikes.

Well you've certainly proven the first part of your sentence by some of your bizarre ratings.

So this is what qualifies as "fantastic."

How about another tune from the same era - lets say David Bowie's Heroes - Oh yeah - you give that a 1 {#Shhh}

Same here.

I uploaded this tune a long time ago and got turned down. I'm happy that Rebecca had a change of heart. Great tune.
