The music never went downhill. You just got older and more close-minded. Mainstream or indie, there is still really cool music no matter what decade you go to.

“Take a look at my girlfriend, she’s the only one I got. Not much of a girlfriend, never seem to get a lot.”-SuperTramp One of best lyrics ever written lol.
Thank you sir for all of your work researching editing, compiling, and adding subtitles. Thank God for AC/DC. I will have to check Rainbow - never heard of them before. Outside of Super Tramp's "it's Raining Again" I never really cared for them but I probably should explore farther. Shout out to Sister Sledge... damn, they can really sing. Maybe a moth or ago... I kind of laughed at Stakka Bo's "Here We Go Again" and now I am listening to it every day. If anyone reads down this far... experience, learn, and go explore further. This is probably the best channel on TH-cam to help you experience something new.

From a time when you could actually understand what they were singing instead of the incomprehensible high-speed gibberish that attempts to pass for music these days.
Don't agree with the general consensus that disco died in 1979. It ws probably the peak year but the early 1980s had plenty of disco floorfillers. I remember dancing to them. ❤🙂.
Well the reason 1979 is known as “the year disco died” was mostly because of the disco backlash from the pissed-off rock fans and Disco Demolition Night. *Keep in mind,* disco music was still being made and played, but many labels and radio stations were scared to call it disco music, so they labeled it as either dance music or “post-disco,” which is both a genre of its own and a specific period of time when disco started to form into a more electronic character and sound, and even influenced other genres like 1980’s Euro disco, hi-NRG, and old-school hip hop. This was only in the United States. In Europe and Oceania, disco music remained popular until circa 1982, when other genres like new wave and synth-pop started taking over. But in the United States, post-disco, boogie and early dance-pop started becoming the new sound of disco music starting around 1980. That’s just a little history lesson.
The videos and music you think are from the 80s probably charted their highest in early 1980 in the USA, but all of them were definitely released in 1979!
Tubeway Army were a London-based new wave band led by lead singer Gary Numan. Formed at the height of punk rock in 1977 the band gradually changed to an electronic sound. They were the first band of the electronic era to have a synthesizer-based number-one hit, with their single "Are 'Friends' Electric?"
Unfortunately, due to copyright issues, the clips have to be that short. If they were longer then the video would very likely get blocked due to copyright infringement.
My first year of college. Several students borrowed enough college money to buy a good used car and a new stereo. The big 1981 recession when Reagan was president was an end to many good things, and later the Puritan jackasses changed the drinking age from 18 to 21. Of course, it just moved more college parties off campus and caused more drunk driving, because these morons did not think it through, just like 1920s prohibition that was a huge failure. I think more 18 year olds drink now, to stick up their middle finger to the mean stupid guvmint, while also giving a huge pass to mean stupid corporations.

1979 had more hits than I remember the past 15 years.
BY FAR !!!
1979 was the last year of disco, and the tunes are still timeless, even if disco was ultimately a short lived fad.
Racist and homophobic people killed it off. It's an interesting history if you look into it.
In the 70s and the 80s the music was still good but in the Nineties and beyond the music went downhill fast. Thanks for bringing back memories.

I totally agree with you...Mostly ninety's music is like a bad hangover, from the 70's and 80's music....
@@arturoromero951...

My sister loves disco she still plays it loud in her car when she's driving 😂
🥰 Disco. There were so many great hits back in 1979.
I was little at the time, but I remember many of these songs. Lots of classics!

A wonderful selection of nothing but the finest of that year. Good job!
Once upon a time there was this wonderful thing humans made. It was called ''music''.

Feel like 9 again !!! 🤣
When i got my 1st Disco, Rock/Pop vinyl...with some o' these songs.
ディスコがまだ生き残ってましたね。マイケルジャクソンも素敵でした。
The last Song hit my heart so heavy....thank you for that!❤
Queen 👑 at last!! And Mr Zimmer too ( Oscar 🏆🏆 winner)))
I was happy to see several ELO songs featured. I just saw them in concert this past weekend and it was a fantastic show! ❤
The 1979 Discovery album was a mega hit and is now a full on classic.

One of the best year in music history 🤩

Best year ever in music history in my opinion.
No, 1971 was.
And 1827.
I agree
1979 and 1984 to me. Best years for music ever!
Classic 🎉
Beetlejuice.... And repeat three times in a row)))🤣🤣🤣
What an incredible year !
A fascinating and inspired year with unforgettable songs that still move us today.

I wore my copy of Off The Wall out. Great stuff.

I want to go back
Thank you yet again for another great vid!! You are, in book the king of great cool music vids!:)
*my book
I don’t remember most of these being the top songs of 79. It’s the year I graduated
❤
Honestly, I actually did think that the Bee Gees - Tragedy would be 70th in this order!
What a year for music 1979 has been ❤
70s
0:16 Is this a vampire? xD
Great compilation. 1979 was a great year for music. But that Michael Jackson song 'Rock with You' was a hit in 1980, not 1979.
It was a hit in both years. It entered the US top 20 in December 1979 and peaked in early 1980.
@@somerandomguy_music Ok 👍

The clips are too short. They need to be about 15-20 seconds to be able to relate to the particular track.
