I've been trying to widen the genres of music I listen to, but I think there were a lot of songs in the 70's that were like megahits? Can any of you name some of your favorites or some that became famous?

70's thats disco mania...which I support fully lol

ABBA- 'Dancing Queen', 'Mamma Mia'
Gloria Gaynor- 'I will survive'
Bee Gees- 'Jive Talkin', 'Stayin Alive'
Village People(?!?!)- 'YMCA', 'Macho Man'
KC and the Sunshin Band- 'Get Down Tonight'

not Disco
Blondie 'Heart of Glass', 'Atomic', 'One way or another'
Bruce Springsteen- 'Thunder Road'
Bob Marley- 'I Shot the Sheriff'
(eric clapton's version is pretty good too)
Thin Lizzy- 'The Boys are Back in Town', 'Whiskey in the Jar', 'Dancing in the Moonlight'

I'd list more...but it'd prolly just be more disco lmao
