I love these 150 hit compilations because they include a lot of one hit wonder I've either never heard or haven't heard for over twenty years. Maybe it's just me but it seems like 1977 had a lot of songs I'd never heard before. It's crazy how much music gets lost to history.
I love the 70's, your videos help me to feel nostalgic for a decade that I'm too young to have experienced first hand. Rest in peace, Olivia Newton John.
It’s a beautiful Sunday and this is beautiful music, but I would have to gladly disagree since no music decade is better than another. It’s just your taste, and it doesn’t mean any is better or worse. Think what you want, and insult me all you want. You won’t change my views. As long as we can agree to disagree, that’s the most important. :)
I'm catching up with you all as it's Wednesday afternoon now and I've not been up for long after working the night shift last night and being bloody knackered towards the end of it at 6.30 this morning,just in gotta-go-on-and-do-what-needs-to-be-done mode. Still,a pleasure to watch this after getting up at 4 pm and greeting the day. The long spell of unusually hot weather finally abated yesterday and we had a little bit of rain at last.
Your playlist is easy like this sunday evening. Today was sunny, at the Car Wash and the sun smiled at me and really eased my pain. The dark days are gone, and the bright days are here, the sun shines so sincere that just makes want to be free, free oh and I just got to be me, me, me, oh! Let me show you the way to go cos we are the champions my friend and will rock you, it's the name of the game! Keep it up man! As I will too! I always get four likes, apart from you, cheers to them too!
You' person who is listening and reading this comment, God bless you. You are not alone there are millions of people who want to see you well 💚 and I know how hard you have been trying to get out of bed and get ahead without giving up and I want to tell you, Christ Jesus, that I am proud of you and your effort💟!
Wonderful Music And Great Times R.I.P Olivia Newton John Donna Summer Barry White Andy Gibbs Maurice Gibbs Robin Gibbs Kenny Rogers Elvis Presley And All The Musicians And Singers Who Are No Longer With Us GONE TOO SOON GONE BUT NOT FORGOTTEN
Great start to the day going back in my time machine..had forgotten about some of these songs 🎵 we grew up in an era when music was music 🎶 not a load of gibberish like today's crap that I sometimes have the misfortune to hear😆 keep 'em coming please 🙏
Just your taste. Doesn’t mean modern music is crap or “gibberish.” Just signifies that you’re quite possibly entitled or grown out of taste, so instead you only gain pleasure from pointlessly insulting later generations of music. Very bad look on you. Tsk tsk.
Watching and listening to these tracks brings you back to different days from your life, the summers, the winters, the girlfriends, the boyfriends, the holidays, it really captures our own individual lives and how we spent our time. I don't think there is any better way than this music. Thank you for compiling (a tough job) and then sharing with us to reminisce our pasts!
I love the 70s too,and these videos are great reminders of those times. I like the way they showcase the sheer amount of variety there was - a bit of everything is here. There are a couple of songs on here that already became big UK hits in the last quarter or so of 1976,such as Blinded By the Light and Couldn't Get it Right,but on the other hand a handful that the UK played catchup with the US or other countries on by them only charting in 1978,such as both of the Foreigner songs and Kansas. One thing I've noticed from looking back through the charts in this era (I remember so much clearly anyway as I became a chart nerd for a while and have all the Top 40s in a book I brought in a record store,plus the whole Top 75 between,at the very least,the middle of 1978 and the end of 1985) is that I was hearing many of the big hits a lot on the radio or seeing them on TV shows for a few weeks before they became hits; I'd see many a song listed in the chart and think to myself: "I know I was hearing that a month or more before that!",especially in the last third in 1976. From the songs on this video,I'm sure I was hearing Barry Biggs singing Sideshow before the end of the autumn term at school in late 1976,and I Wish was all over the radio from the start of the Christmas - New Year school holidays,followed closely by New Kid in Town and The Things We Do For Love,as well as a few songs not on here such as Haitian Divorce by Steely Dan.
@@perseusjoppa426 Then continue to be entitled and snobby all you want. All I can say is, it is just your taste. It doesn’t mean creativity, artistry, and talent are virtually nonexistent now. They are still around. Take it as you will. But if you want to reject my suggestion and continue being close-minded, then be my guest. As I will quote you, “I will not care at all, and will stand 100% to what I said.” And there is nothing you can do about it. Your choice.
@@arturoromero951 You can call me what you want. I never called you anything. There may be talent out there, but it just isn't mainstream any longer. Finally, you could use some politeness and courtesy when addressing people you don't know instead of being so aggressive and rude. I don't have to think like you.
I was born in March 1963 so I was a child of the 1970s and glad I was as well lived through the very BEST time for music. We had everything Pop Glam Rock Rock Punk New Wave etc etc. This music is still being played on the radio some 50 plus years later. I cannot see for one moment that Ed Sheeran etc etc will be played in 2074 but the music from this era will live on and on.
🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶😊 a very good year . I was graduation from high school . and I went to the u.s military army for 15 yrs . 1977 a very good year . a lot of good memories . 🥰
A nostalgia dos anos 70 é maravilhosa! Minhas bandas e canotores favoritos da época são: Kansas, Heart, Uriah Heep, Eagles, Queen, Kiss, Chicago, Abba, Fleetwood Mac, Bee Gees, Rita Coolidge, Santa Esmeralda e Barry Manilow.
77' was ONE Hell of a YEAR. Was In a American Highschool in West-Germany, and in love with 11th Grader (a'Female of British/German Heritage)no IT didn't end well, but IT ain't over yet. ❤🎗☺
I was looking forward to the next year video and 1977 doesn't disappoint at all. The later half of the 70s (and 1974) had great music. 'Angelo' is a guilty pleasure I'll say that. A time of disco music and funk growing, as well as rock music and the emergence of punk. You've got the balladeers, country singers and pop stars in the mix. Fleetwood Mac were on fire during this time and probably have the best songs in the list... I'll choose 'Go Your Own Way' as my top favourite on the list. 'I Feel Love' is sexy, seductive and a true disco classic. Of course you can't go wrong with ABBA. I can't listen to 'Living Next Door To Alice' without shouting the expletives lol. 'Love's Unkind' is one of Donna's underrated songs. 'Red Light Spells Danger' my second favourite with 'So You Win Again' and 'Sideshow' joint third (excellent reggae cover of the latter). I'd be here all night listing my favourites. Not to forget Queen! Two classics there. The year we lost Elvis Presley too. 'Moody Blue' and 'Way Down' are classics the latter his best song. RIP Olivia Newton John. I remember my late Grandfather singing 'Sam' when I as a child when it was on the radio. Probably one of my favourite songs of hers.
I do too. Brilliant track,became a Top 20 hit in the UK at the late end of 1977. The orchestral frills aside,our music teacher at school played it in class once to make a point comparing the more conventional rock drumming by Bev Bevan on it to the rhythms and percussion in reggae music,as demonstrated by such as another Birmingham band,Steel Pulse.
This is definitely a great list of songs like yes they were poplar at the time but it probably took a lot of time to find them and thank you for finding them again
Great video random guy with a fabulous mix of music. I was born in 1970 so some of these passed me by at the time as I was only 6. I've listened to and enjoyed the majority growing up and have a good few of them in my playlist.
Wow,that was a phenomenal year of hits !:)🎶 I'm in you by Peter Frampton, isn't it time by the babys and your in my heart by Rod Stewart 💖I haven't heard those jems in a long time 🎵my mom is about to turn 81 years old and she really likes Rita Coolidge and Debbie Boone 💙 Great job SRG ✌️💚🤗
Great list, and pretty representative of the music at that time. Thank you Random Guy. I was not a big fan of most of the music at that time, though I did really love Fleetwood Mac, Supertramp, David Bowie and the Sex Pistols. I also liked most of Rod Stewart's stuff simply because I liked his voice, his song choices though often sucked. Other stuff I liked was Heart - Barracuda, Manfred Mann's Earth Band - Blinded by the Light, The Babys - Isn't It Time, Queen - We Are the Champions/We Will Rock You, Alice Cooper - You and Me There was also some others I loved that you don't have: Don't Fall in Love - The Ferrets, In the Flesh - Blondie, It's all Over Now, Baby Blue - Graham Bonnet.
If anything, this would become the single most important year in Billboard history. That spring, we had six straight weeks where the #1 single was new and replaced the following week by another #1 single. It would be immediately followed by a run of seven in the summer (a feat that would be repeated in 1989). Only one single stood between these separate runs: Sir Duke (Stevie Wonder, which was at #1 for three weeks).
I was 2 years old back then. 😅 But I am surprised how much roots of 80ies trends and great 80ies singers you can find here. E.g. Donna Summer, Foreigner, The Commodores (with Lionel Richie). Just love your videos, please keep them coming. 👍 Even Space Fly at 9:28 has a strong vibe of Daft Punk bringing us to the 90ies and beyond.
Yes,and like many we had it on vinyl first at the time,and again on tape and/or CD in later years. My mum introduced me to Rumours,having just bought it,late one evening at the start of the school summer holidays in 1977. We were just sitting on the living room couch,chatting a bit and she probably had her nose in whatever book she was reading while I was listening to it for the first time while looking at the lyrics on the album sleeve. I loved that album from the start,especially Go Your Own Way which was my out-and-out favourite.
@@rjjcms1 the Rumours album I believe was one of the first CDs I got when I got my first CD player in 1984, still never forgot the sound quality, it blew me away.
@@rjjcms1 the tracks on "rumours were perfect, if I had to pick one it would be "Gold Dust Woman" Stevie's vocals are incredible on that especially towards the of the song. I have lost count how many Mac songs I have Spotify.
You missed out the unusual UK hit of The Floral Dance. Only kept out of number one for six weeks or so by Mull of Kintyre. In the UK in the seventies decade only about 26 singles outsold it. Huge achievement for an amateur brass band.
For someone with quite a few songs here, - I never ever heard of 'Smokie'. Most everything else I recognized the song or the artists or of course both - along with the lyrics. 😁
Smokie had a string of major hits in the UK in the mid-to-late 70s. I read,though,that while seeing out their existing contracts they found themselves in the uneviable position of having to pour every bit of revenue they made into paying off a gigantic tax bill.
@@rjjcms1 Thank you, I'm in the US. That is a reasonable explanation for my ignorance of this group. Sorry about their tax woes. That shouldn't happen to anyone.
@@TheWolverine-ff2rs Yeah,I don't know if they had any hits on your side of the Atlantic. At least they didn't cut and run and become tax exiles like so many in that era,though perhaps they couldn't. It's the kind of thing the Beatles wrote their song Taxman about,and one of the issues that ultimately led to the election of Margaret Thatcher as Prime Minister in 1979.

They were all on the charts in 1977, some of them came out in late 1976 before they peaked on the charts the year after. It also depends on the country, some songs that were hits in the UK in 1977 charted in the US in 1978 or vice versa.

I could do without the Bay City Rollers and I could maybe do without Leo Sayer, but Gosh! There was great music there. Mostly '77 wasn't a great year for me, but the pop music was particularly good.
@@arturoromero951 [smile] Ok, step back ~ I am now 60. I was a teen at the time, but there was music for people with taste, like Led Zeppelin, and there was music for screaming teeny-girls, like Mr Sayer and the Bay City Rollers. Now teens are just like Boomers, we're not all the same animal ~ I know that music was very popular with part of the audience. I wasn't hugely impressed by the Village People either.

Made me think of my 11-year-old self listening to the radio, record player, and 8-track tapes.
I was 11 in 1974. I believe we lived through the best era of music. .
RIP Olivia Newton-John
I was eight years old. This music framed my childhood! Miss those years.
I was a teen in the seventies, it was to me the best decade.
A year full of big names in music, and fantastic music! Back when creativity, artistry and lots of talent were the norm.

This week (August 16) marks the 45th anniversary of the death of the king of rock & roll, Elvis Presley.

If anything, this would become the single most important year in Billboard history. That spring, we had six straight weeks where the #1 single was new and replaced the following week by another #1 single. It would be immediately followed by a run of seven in the summer (a feat that would be repeated in 1989). Only one single stood between these separate runs: Sir Duke (Stevie Wonder, which was at #1 for three weeks).
And it was an important year on this side of the Atlantic,with punk breaking through (New Wave in its wake) and disco grabbing much more domination.
That was fun.
Thank you so much. Brilliant
Incredible year 🎶

Smokie had a string of major hits in the UK in the mid-to-late 70s. I read,though,that while seeing out their existing contracts they found themselves in the uneviable position of having to pour every bit of revenue they made into paying off a gigantic tax bill.
@@rjjcms1 Thank you, I'm in the US. That is a reasonable explanation for my ignorance of this group. Sorry about their tax woes. That shouldn't happen to anyone.
@@TheWolverine-ff2rs Yeah,I don't know if they had any hits on your side of the Atlantic. At least they didn't cut and run and become tax exiles like so many in that era,though perhaps they couldn't. It's the kind of thing the Beatles wrote their song Taxman about,and one of the issues that ultimately led to the election of Margaret Thatcher as Prime Minister in 1979.
@@rjjcms1 Thank you very much for the history lesson..
@@TheWolverine-ff2rs I mean “Next Door to Alice” was big here in America. But yes, Smokie was more popular in Europe than in America.
The late 70s had probably the best music of this decade
Poxa... Uma seleção de 150 musicas de 1977 só umas 14 foram sucessos e até hoje 2023 não foram esquecidas; outras sumiram como nunca existissem...
Space - Magic Fly - sounds so 90s.
Haven't even hit play yet but I know this is the soundtrack to heaven.
foi o ano que eu nasci em março de 1977 os anos 70 sempre com lindas musicas 🇧🇷brazil 🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷
👍 Oh the memories. I turned 12 that April of '77. 📻 There were some songs l didn't recognize.🤔 Is this list from the UK? If not maybe Canada?
Half of the songs are from the European and the other half from the US charts.
L'enfant et L'oiseau (which means the child and the bird) won the Eurovision Song Contest for France that year.
Gracias mil gracias!!!!
1977 uno de mis a#os preferidos !!!! Que Rolas!!!!
Space - Magic Fly- sounds more like a 90's tune. maybe it's the keyboards
It's my customary saying 🍻's SRG sounding even better now I've got me bang and olufsen headphones 👍
Bang and olufsen headphones ps5 portal version the cornerstone of any serious gamer or film or music buff 500 bucks alot of money but well worth it £450 in English pounds.
Bang & Olufsen 👍🎶.
SRG I meant the sound of you're videos not my English peak district accent, oh me Bang and Olufsen headphones if you can afford them for gaming and music films well worth every penny that goes for everyone .
Did I mention I've played Drums all my life. Pearl Drums and Paiste rude.

Great compilation but I doubt every one of these came out in '77
They were all on the charts in 1977, some of them came out in late 1976 before they peaked on the charts the year after. It also depends on the country, some songs that were hits in the UK in 1977 charted in the US in 1978 or vice versa.
He does his research, y’know.
Weak ago i made the cover of Donna Sumers I feel love and a lady did the voice......it was a hard job to get the sound
great to see SMB represented, well and truly underappreciated.
Yeah, Soul man, that brings memories back: Starsky & Hutch was a great series at that time.
Fun pop list!
Boston, Kansas, Styx, Foreigner... the best.
That bump song would be deemed evil now

I could do without the Bay City Rollers and I could maybe do without Leo Sayer, but Gosh! There was great music there. Mostly '77 wasn't a great year for me, but the pop music was particularly good.
Bay City Rollers and Leo Sayer are pretty cool in my opinion; maybe you’re not a fan of acts that were popular among teens.
@@arturoromero951 [smile] Ok, step back ~ I am now 60. I was a teen at the time, but there was music for people with taste, like Led Zeppelin, and there was music for screaming teeny-girls, like Mr Sayer and the Bay City Rollers. Now teens are just like Boomers, we're not all the same animal ~ I know that music was very popular with part of the audience. I wasn't hugely impressed by the Village People either.
