Maybe it is reflective of the music of the times, or the music fans, but not one song was repeated in our top five responses. Don McLean, Grateful Dead, John Lennon, Queen, Lynyrd Skynyrd, The Jackson Five. All on the list. (No Donna Summer, though.) So the Eight Blog Editorial Board selected the following Top Ten (five just wasn’t enough) from your responses:

1. Hotel California / Eagles
2. Night Fever / Bee Gees
3. Love the One You’re With / CSNY
4. American Pie / Don McClean
5. Born to Run / Bruce Springsteen
6. Everybody’s Everything / Santana
7. Dream On / Aeorsmith
8. I’ll Be There / The Jackson Five
9. We will Rock You / Queen
10. It’s Too Late / Carole King

If this has you longing for more 1970s sound, check out the new two-part Soundstage special featuring Peter Frampton. Classics like “Show Me the Way” and “Nassau/Baby I Love Your Way” on Friday, June 13. Then a cover of George Harrison’s “My Guitar Gently Weeps” and other showstoppers on Friday, June 20. Watch them both on Eight/KAET.

New features on our 1970s site, too: 1970s tv shows, movies, Far Out quizzes.
