1974 was a very memorable year for me and it started my love of music. I was not born in 1974. I was kid in 1974 (74 Kid Records) and still love the songs from 1974, even the cheesy, bubble gum ones.
Here’s my top 10…
- 10 – Rikki Don’t Lose That Number – Steely Dan
- 9 – Fung Fu Fighting – Carl Douglas
- 8 – Life Is A Rock (But The Radio Rolled Me) – Reunion
- 7 – Takin’ Care Of Business – Bachman-Turner Overdrive
- 6 – Smokin’ In The Boys Room – Brownsville Station
- 5 – Bennie And The Jets – Elton John
- 4 – Seasons In The Sun – Terry Jacks
- 3 – The Night Chicago Died – Paper Lace
- 2 – Bungle In The Jungle – Jethro Tull
- 1 – Hooked On A Feeling – Blue Swede
