I was 18 in 1970, when young women were slim, trim, and physically fit. No muffin tops, no bubble butts, no thunder thighs, no tattoos, no face piercings, no green and pink hair! Just natural, wholesome beauty. SIGH!! How I miss that era!!
Society has only gotten worse, gonna leave it at that!
And no weiner secretly tucked away!
I hear ya man. It was the best and glad I was there. It was Far Out LOL!
I miss the hairy boxes the most.
@CiscoBudge567 most men don't get any "box" now.
Don't be sad that the good old days are gone... Be glad that you got to live in them..
You are SO right on that, I never thought of this in that perspective. Thank you for your comment, you made me really happy!
Of course they were great - you just hung out all day while your parents did all the work.
God I miss the 70’s. Playing outside with friends, Saturday morning cartoons, the great music and big cars. ❤❤❤
The girls were lean and at 18, were more mature, independent, and classy than today's 35 year old.
I was there!! I lived through the 70's and the 80's. I'm 63 now and still going strong 🎉!!
Yes I sure was...paying for college and working and had very little but did it all because my parents couldn't afford it...❤
@@patsalas5170 Yeah, you and me both. But I had a good job as a waiter, and somehow I had a good amount of extra $ to enjoy life. Well, we both made it work. I would not trade that 70's decade for anything. Peace! :)
more feminine yet tougher
Thats for sure! Werent doped up on loser big pharma crybaby meds either.
The guys were slim too!!!! We all were! Better times. Miss them😢
I didn't know how to include men without seeming, well, you know...
Yep! We were outside doing something.
I hope there are still some of us that remember these days are mature enough today to recognize what was good & beautiful. There is not much good & beauty in the world today.
Remember, not a single person can steal those memories from you, they belong to you forever. Life is short and it’s definitely not perfect, wake up everyday and make new exciting memories of your life. Every once in a while you might just cross paths with a younger person who might want to learn about those times, and being the owner of your memories, you’ll be the perfect person to share your experiences with those who will never get the chance to live those beautiful moments that we call memories.
@@invisableobserver isn’t that the truth!!!
Best music of all time in the 70’s we were so lucky.
I grew up in the same town with The Allman Brothers where Capricorn studios are. Great times!
You ask any major artist & they will say their next stuff is from the 70’s
I was born in 1961, I turned 9 in 1970 and turned 13 in 1974. I enjoyed being a 70s teen and moved about freely without much supervision, it was a very different time. I enjoyed going to the mall down the street after school and the weekend to meet with friends.
I had complete freedom at such a young age. My parents only rule was to be back by dinner time.
Me too - 61'. Hey class of '79! The 60's/70's/80's - best 3 decades in American history. Amazing time to be a kid, and young adult. Simple times. Fun times. Memories!
@@genericman6648 😃👍
@@genericman6648 Same, class of '80 tho. Loved riding bikes all day, fishing, swimming, hiking, going to the park. The park was the town's hangout, like an in person social media hub. Mom would get green stamps from the A&P store; we filled up a bunch of books and got a free toaster.😂 Good times!
@@411Braves80’s here great times!
All the girls looked great, and guess what? NO TATOOS! It was wonderful
…and no facial piercing!
@@macmclemore Yeah, I noticed both. When women were women, and could live by their looks and personalities, not by some tacked-on crap
WOMEN, PAY ATTENTION! MEN *DO NOT LIKE TATTOO'S ON WOMEN*!!!
And no weiner secretly tucked away!
These were the best times to be alive. I wouldn't trade them for the world.
Funny, boys were boys and girls were girls. Miss that
Even if the boys were sissy’s and the girls were Tomboys there wasn’t a question of what sex they were
And you could tell which was which.
Now boys are girls and girls are boy.😂😂🤣🤣
Some people refuse to accept themselves. They need therapy to accept the body they have. They can be the other sex in their next life, but in this one, you are what you are ... and that's how it is. Allowing them to actually change is the sick part.
How common is intersex? ...National Institutes of Health (NIH ) Applying this more precise definition, the true prevalence of intersex is seen to be about 0.018%,
They say don't live in the past but for me the 60,s 70,s 80,s was the best years of my life with out a doubt
Yup, dead right Brother..............
Same with me. I went to one high school reunion and that was enough for me. Although I have a ton of great memories, I don't want to sit in a room with a bunch of people whining the blues about it . I was excited about the future and am now living the 3rd chapter of my life. Education / Work / Retirement.
Yeah, me too...
Me too
Born in '67...the 70's were simple times...no cellphones, social media and the girls were fine!!!! Thanks for the memories.
and they did not wear tattoos, they were really were much more attractive.
@@enriquemino9963 And no face jewelry.
And the dollar was actually worth something.
The FINE girls were fine.
@@paltro3268 yep, but I remember it was losing ground fast. I used to watch the price go up every year or two at the coke machines. It was 25 cents around 1975 and 50 cents by 1980. Now you need a credit card to park.
I am that 70’s girl! Being a teen, I loved my tube top cut off jeans, hip hugger jeans! Rocking to the best Music of our Times. ❤
I Was Born In 1960 What A Great Time To Be A Kid /Teenagers Especially The Cruising Through town!
Depending on the size of your town, it was even cooler to go cruise in other towns. Always checking out unfamiliar muscle cars, people you had never met, especially the chics, simply making new friends and memories. Those were absolutely better times and people!
I sure do miss those days.
It was an awesome time . I spent hours on the phone with friends and girls . No texting or email no social media . You wanted to make plans you either called on the phone or made them in person . In person was the best . We had so much fun doing stuff together .
life.
Such a wonderful time for sure ! And we only had one phone in our house ! I'm glad I have such great memories.
At the end of a date, you made plans for the next date. Simple.
I remember going to get groceries with my folks, they filled 2 carts and the total was 77 bucks.Also, the girls in my high school were slim and wore nice clothes. My friends and I spent our summers working on cars, swimming in the creek, and camping. Great times!
I miss slim women.
I miss that, and seeing people who would actually engage you instead of being sucked into their phones all of the time. We have screwed ourselves up badly.
With. Untattooed skins.
@@andygossard4293 And who didn't look like pin cushions.
@@andygossard4293 Yes! Thank you! I'm not one that ever enjoyed tattoos on me or on anyone else. It's one thing if it's your cultural norm and you live in that culture, but, it's another when it's just damned ugly. AND IT IS, ladies.
@ If, 50 years ago marking up one's body wasn't considered desirable for the hot girls, somebody has gotten into the psychology of the youth and completely misled them. Just like with woke culture and anarchy.
A&W had those big ice cold glass mugs of the THE BEST rootbeer, great burgers too!
Yes a w was the best
I thought that too! So refreshing in the summertime.
Remember papa burger, mamma burger, and baby burger?
God i miss my childhood! Born in 1963, my generation had the best of everything, and I had all of it, I was spoiled. I had all the new toys that came out up until I was a teenager. The girls clothes are exactly what I wore, and bell bottoms, jelly shoes, clogs, Terry cloth rompers. It was safe to go out at night, to leave doors open all day. I feel sorry for kids who were born in last two generations. Your going to grow up in a world of hate, and violence in your own neighborhoods and churches. I would give anything to go back knowing what I know now. My advice from a 61 yrs old is time goes very fast when you're young, it doesn't seem like it until you reach 40 or so. Cherish your family and friends and treat people how you want to be treated.
i wonder: would you want to grow up 5 years earlier or 5 years later? (remembering what you already know?)
born too early or too late?
1963 too and I couldn't agree more.
1964 here and could not agree more.
Well said, Alice. My circumstances growing up as a teen in the 70's weren't quite like yours (my father having passed away in 1971, when I was 14), but years subsequent made me who I am, and I would not trade them for anything. Peace! :)
“you’re” going to grow up in world of hate… …and not knowing how to use English… …and not caring…
Yes, it matters.
There were so many things better about those times that I don’t even know where to begin listing them.
Yeah, you are right. Just remember that we have these memories in our brain, and we can make them come alive again. 1/20/25

I loved growing up in the 70's and 80's Great Memories !!!
I just loved it. No better time to be young, wild and free.
Need a time machine, because this was the best time, no tattoos, cow nose rings, girls were girls, guys were guys, no texts, streaming, life was good. The best!!
Word.
Area 51 believe government has time machine
So many great pictures !!! What memories
At 60 I sure do remember and miss the 60 and 70s the most. Especially compared to today 😮
60 this year too. Very much feel the stranger in a strange land vibe sometimes.
Born in 1951 the most beautiful stylish girls.No tats or crazy piercings multi color hair.Just beautiful sexy women.Greetings from Alberta Canada
And no weiner secretly tucked away!
Oh that sound you heard when you realized that your cassette player was eating your favorite tape! And i remember the smell of Tinkertoys!
haha
8 track and you could hear another track in the background
As a kid, when you were ready to be picked up from the movies by your parents, you would call collect from a payphone, but instead of the call going through to charging, we would hear our parent answer and when the operator says I have a collect call from so and so, you quickly say I'm "ready", meaning to be picked up, then you hang up. The person that answered could hear your quick message without being charged. Eventually the phone company stopped that to where you couldn't hear who answered until the call was put through.
My Dad who was so loving, generous and kind had a corny side. He bought a Plum Crazy Plymouth Duster in the early 70's, then somehow found a pair of crushed volour slacks to match. Coolest car in the neighborhood. The pants, nope.
At least he had the courage to wear them.
I grew up with brother's who were into muscle cars. Obsessed is a better word. Their Saturday afternoons were spent working on their cars. Their friends would come over and spend hours hanging out while they worked on them. Talking, joking, laughing. Wonderful memories. I miss the 70's.
Those were the days! Brings back so many great memories!
Yes. We were all THAT!! Loved the 70s. ❤
Born in 56. The 70's were a blast. The girls weren't twirking because their butts were normal looking (and they had more self respect), the Rock was real, the cars were simple - and cheap, people could define themselves any way they wished - as long as it was male or female - and nobody raised a fuss.
Girls were a heck of a lot more modest and happier. Notice all but one are walking barefoot. They were grounding themselves without realizing it which contributed to their overall health.
I, too, was born in 1956. Ditto everything in your comment. I am a child of the 70's, I would not trade that decade for anything. It made me who I am, in spite of a lot of trials and tribulations. My wife of 40 years says that I am "stuck in the 70's." I am pleased to do so, it was a great decade in which to grow up. Peace! :)
@@74bshs
It was simply just a better time to live. We aren’t stuck in that decade, it’s that compared to what we’re living in now, humanity has lost touch with reality.
I remember being in K-mart in the evening and waiting for the blue light specials. When they would be for the day clearing out their subs and marking them at a super price, would pick up if early enough for a night snack, could eat anything and not worry about weight, and have a couple for lunch the next day. Truly a great store chain still missing.👍👌
I remember Kmart sold hamsters , fish , guinea pigs
I miss K-Mart more than any other store. I also miss Mervyn's.
My first job was at Kmart in 1970. 1.60 an hour as stock boy.
No plastic surgery!!
Natural beauties!
Also, no pedo look below either.
No fat chicks in the 70's
and,,,,,NO TATS!!!!!!!
The hell there weren't..they just were nowhere near as common.
@@Chuck_W59 Yep, so thick you could hide a VCR in it!
No fat chicks ? Rubbish !
0:35 back when you sat at the bar and struck up a conversation with whoever was there. Now it's considered creepy to talk to someone without a formal introduction.
Yeah, you gotta get a text message permission to talk anymore...😂
Yes, looking at the old bar photos reminded me of those days. And going to a bar to talk and meet women and have fun and hopefully get their number and ask them out for a date the following weekend. Now it's creepy online dating where women will send nudes of themselves like it's no big deal! Then come right to you house for sex! NO CLASS! The average young woman these days has already banged 50+ guys before she is 20.
This was my parents teen years, mid to late 80's. Awesome, I would love to experience the 70's and 80's, unfortunately I was born in 2000.
Hopefully your parents have shared many of their memories with you. Also lived during that era, such an exciting time to be young and alive. As a guy, worked after school everyday, cruised on Friday and Saturday evening, usually hit the drive in on Saturday night, hooking up with friends and spending more time talking than actually watching the movie. Finding a new girl friend and spend rest of the night cruising and listening to great music. Those are memories that will live forever!
Halter tops, midriffs and tube tops...made it difficult to concentrate in school when the girls were wearing these.
Difficult for a guy to stand up sometimes too........
Halter tops and skin tight bell bottoms is how I met my (future) wife in Sophomore English class in 1974. Got married in 78 and still married today.
@@michaelrosenberg2420 hey mikey he likes it
We thought bras were gone forever!
@@dennythomas8887Wow! Really!? I also met my future hubby in my senior year of high school and married him the same year of graduation in 1991. Still married to him today. Bless you.
Back when you were a teen guy and got your first car the first thing you did was get a FM converter that would mount usually under the dash board below the radio, then you got a set of speakers that would mount on the deck panel under the rear window then put shag carpeting on to complete the look or sometimes you would put some shag carpeting on the dash board, Eventually the ultimate customization was getting a set of Cragar mag rims, cherry bomb or Thrush mufflers and some air shocks to make the rear end of the car sit up higher than the front
1976 I was 13 , had a paper route ( 4am) had to go collect myself from the customers every other week. I was King on Pay Day. Saturday Matinée Movies Double Feature with cartoons in between. Life was good.
Same here. I delivered Mon-Sat afternoon paper but on Sunday morning 4am. Those were the big papers.
Back then people actually connected with each other!
Thanks for posting the pictures and reminding us how great it was back then.
I was born In the late 50s, fast motorcycles, beautiful girl friends, Columbian gold & red, all of my friends from the 60s & 70s have all died, bummer. 👊 😎 🇮🇹 🇺🇸 have been a subscriber for around 2-3 weeks.
I say it alot! U kno ur gettin old when u gotta head to Wawa to get ur Columbian!!😂🤣😂
That stuff about lifestyle was all promise with no delivery. How many times did you go home with a hot girl? Probably once, right? Your friends are dead because they're vacant upstairs. Ed Van Halen is dead too...why? From da drugs! No we don't appreciate you for having toxic lifestyle once. Too bad!
@@Pimp-Master sounds like you had a lame life.
As a teen in the 70's, can't get enough...thankful that some had the insight to record these memories.
no tattoos, no piercings, no fat, no social media
No crybaby big pharma. Young women were mature back then
There is no denying it. We lost something along the way.
Yeah. Our brains.
Our sanity.
My older sisters born btwn 60 & 63 had some of the coolest looking friends from ‘76 until ‘79…😢 when they both left home for good….
All that experienced this time know what great times were that weren’t cramped by smartphones. The ultimate oxymoron.
No tattoos or ugly piercings on the young women YES
We had our 50th high school reunion in June, 2024. Very cool post. Thank you so much!
I wish we would have another class of 1980 reunion, I guess it would be our 40th one, I'm 64 born in 1961.
@@tonycollazorappo Tony~ All it takes is someone to "take the bull by the horns", get some other classmates on board, and do some work and make it happen. It has been easier for us, since we faithfully have had reunions every five years since 1974. But you can do it, it just takes some effort. But the results are often priceless. Peace! :)
I used to LOVE going to the record store in the 70's, but as a mostly broke teenager, I was never able to buy all the vinyl that I wanted !
But 45s were cheap
1970 HERE FREEDOM, MUSTLE CARS & MUSIC THERE IS NO WAY TO TOP THAT ! ✊🇺🇸🎉
I like your background cool Jazz piano music.
I remember getting off work at midnight and I'd meet my brother at Bob's Big Boy for dinner. Good times.
Same here except it was Howard Johnsons.
Part it in the middle and feather it back!
Great video. It brought back so many memories!
It was better back then... than it is today.
Great pics & memories. The 60's/70's/80's. It was a different time, a different World. The music, still hasn't been beat to this day. I couldn't get myself to wear bell bottoms until my later teens. I was always a peg legs, leather work boots, dark plastic tv set's looking glasses and crew cut kind of guy. But when I did, I went a bit whole hog. I got several pairs of bell bottoms of several different colors, where the pockets where different colors yet. Blue pants with red pockets etc. Grew my hair down to neck length. Started wearing sneakers and wire rims. Haven't seen any of those pants since the early 70's. Lived in a rural area for a few years in my late teens early 20's, hitchhiking was a normal way to get around. Wouldn't try that these days.
Where I lived, I don't recall girls dressing that way back in the 70s and 80s. Yes, it was less complicated and life was simpler especially in the 60s. We could walk back and forth to school and play outside and no one would bother us kids. Now, we are living in dangerous times!
I do remember girls dressing like the photos but then again I'm in California where short shorts, tube tops & jeans ruled the 70's.
@@patriciawatkins9539 - Could be, especially in warmer climates. Where we lived at the time, it was very cold and it snowed during the winter.
As a 12 yo boy in 77/78 I still remember girls dressing that way that were 4 or 5 years older than me. Summer time all suntanned with mid driffs, halter tops spaghetti straps, short short cut off jeans or those athletic shorts with the stripe. I had longer blond hair and got teased for looking like Andy Gibb and Leif Garret and all the older girls would flirt with me and say, if only you were 4 years older as they played with me hair, hugging and play kissing me. haha It was murder on me! 😉😁🤣
OK, if I may add a pair of very elementary-school jokes here, at 6:06, this explains it all. Taken from ad-lines from both companies back in the day. Why those years were the best:
'Why don't they have bathrooms at McDonald's?" Because " 'Gino's is the place to go.' "
"Why is there no toilet paper in the bathrooms at KFC?" Because " 'Everything is finger-licking good.' "
This video is SO cool. Thanks for the post! :)
This was back when life was normal, and not a cross between the Twilight Zone and a freak show like it is now. If someone were to walk around back then with a paperback book on them and was reading it as they walked, or picked it up every 5 minutes, one would say to them, " Why don't you just go home and read it, it's ridiculous for you to do that and it's weird!" It's the same principle today.
Nice, no land whales, no blue hair and no tats. Many halter tops, short shorts and hip huggers. I loved living in the 70's.
Mini skirts too
We just went to the A&W restaurant in sweet home Oregon a couple of months ago. It's still the same as it was in 1970, amazing still getting served in your car in 2024.
As a young teen in the 70s ... all we needed was our bikes and baseball glove! We would literally run ALL DAY! Not an ounce of fat....
At 11:52 Jungle Pam on the drag- strip
This was NOT the background music of the 70s and 80s! No cel phones was a double edged sword. You missed meeting up with people, but you also found fun and interest where you ended up. I loved the randomness of where a day or roadtrip could go. Now you take a roadtrip and you know where everything is, even what it looks like.
In the old days, you found a place on a map, you might have seen photos in a magazine or book, but the quality was so low, that real life was always a total surprise. The surprise is gone in the modern age. I understand part of that is us getting older, but I think part of it is a lost way of life that younger generations will miss out on.
What made my heart smile? The chicks...
Girls looking so nice with no face piercings and tattoos. They could step on your foot without crushing it too. No over sized load signs needed.
Even though I miss the 80s, I miss the 70s more. It was really the last era before the consumer electronic/computer revolution arrived.
While that revolution brought wonderous things, the time before felt cozier, simpler, and like there was a lot of fun and good times to be had with much less means. Most of the 70s still had a connection with the 50s and 60s popular culture and traditions that lessened later in the 80s. Maybe its just being a kid in those days that makes that time very special.
I remember a record shop in Queens, NY that was a trip to step into in 1975/1976. The posters, lights, glitter and sound in that shop was mesmerizing. I used to spend an hour or two in that place looking at albums. Peak rock and pop era as I see it. It wouldn't be the same a decade later with CDs.
Going to a baseball game was so different back then. Much less fancy and costly to eat, drink, and get souvenirs. Five or Ten dollars in your pocket went a long way back then to enjoy a full ballpark experience.
I could have written this myself, bang on................
Being a kid in the 60's, I enjoyed the good vibes and the granted freedom of the following decades. What a lot of crazy things we did... Awesome time.
I remember going to Burger Chef in the early 70's with my Nana. It was located on Main Street in Tewksbury, Ma. The lot it was on later became a bank. We also went to Jack In The Box in Wilmington, Ma. Located on Main Street. When it closed it became Bill & Bob's Roast Beef and now it's called Simard's Roast Beef and if you are ever in the area stop in and try a Super Beef with BBQ sauce but I would recommend getting the sauce on the side to avoid wearing it! Mmmm I think I will get one today!!! Peace to ALL!!! ✌😁👍
during weekend nights we grouped together at empty lot and decied where to have a party at
Love the music!! It has to be said..
Where's my magic shoes so I can click my heels together and go back to these days?!
i feel a bit sad went too fast
Everyone looked healthy and in shape..

Children's shots and pesticides have changed everything.
Thank god no more polio, unfortunately purtussis is making a comeback, thx antivaxers...
Not much over processed man made fake food back then. All that crap has a huge part in our obesity problem. High fructose corn syrup,coke and pepsi and all of the fake sweeteners used are far worse for people than real sugar ever was or will be.

@ Mercury was found to be in HFCS 20 years ago. I bet it is still in there.
I was born in the early 60's and grew up in the 60's and 70's. By the mid 70's I was a teenager and going to highschool. Loved the 70's and wish I could go back. The fashion and cars were the coolest. I got as my first car a 1964 Dodge Dart, now I got it in the 1980's. My dad saw it in the junk yard of the automotive garage that he would go to a lot and I just got my driver's license and would need a car so he got that one and fixed it up for me and I loved that car and drove it for 8 years before I had an accident and totaled it. I miss that car and if I could find one I would get it.
Maybe it’s just me but first cars are the most treasured memory from that time. Ones wheels are the doorway to experience life as a youngster. The fun, the people you meet and even some of the troubles we experienced were all centered around those first set of wheels we were given or we bought. For some of us, it was that first car that helped us decide on which of life’s highway’s we would travel!
@Dorothy-wx9fq I can relate to that as I owned both 1960's Dodge Dart and a Plymouth Valiant (same car really with different body) in the 1970's. Loved those reliable and easy-to-work-on slant-6 engines - the Valiant was turqouise had a push-button transmission, cozy-wings -- all that cool weird stuff. Had almost 10 kids pack into the Dart one day after school in 1971 and drove 3 miles --- the sole reason --- to watch the car turn over 100,000 miles !! 🤣 Imagine you were like many of us at 16, had to have a car --- had to get a part-time job and needed transportation to work. Independence 😂 !!
I was born in 1967 , Never Used a Smartphone Yet . I Miss the 1970's ! The world's population in 1970 was estimated to be around 3.6 billion people. This was a 2.08% increase from the previous year.
The only thing missing is top hits from the 70s playing in the background
They chose to go with the 70s Kmart music. I can’t believe I remember that music. Lol
I was born in 1955 and moved to the US in 1972 as a young man. I understand that the picture in this clip is from the suburban life style of the US when the desecration was still enforced. The lifestyle is different between intercity and suburban Child. Back then certain group of people cannot even rent the property in suburban until the middle of 1980! When I shopped in suburban in NJ, we were followed by security personal at the store. I want to leave intercity and move to suburban so I can enjoy the safety and job prospect and I done it after I left the school in 1979!
I grew up in the city and we had all this and in 1976 our parents bought a house in the suburbs. But everybody's circumstances are different.
10:36 - my living room still looks like that. Anyone who wants to revisit the 1970s is welcome to visit. I'll even play your favorite record. Or we can watch my 13" TV.
Not a single overweight person in the entire video. Today sucks!
That’s called editing, not reality.
@ BS I grew up in the 70’s your ignorance if profound.

I missed the hot pants. Bell bottoms jeans. Riding my bike around the neighborhood and on California beach front. Memories are the greatest
What's with long John silver's? What about Howard Johnson's, big boys , Marshall Fields Chicago, where are your pics from, the south?
Wow I loved Marshall fields in Chicago 😮
I miss the peaceful vibes back then. I wish we can time travel back in the 70s. No woke people yet.
