  • “Night Fever.” “Bridge Over Troubled Water.” “Dreams.” All fantastic 70s songs, but all songs we’ve heard a million times, whether in the comfort of our own homes or endlessly on classic rock radio. But 70s music is so much more than these classics. I’ve crunched the numbers, and I’m pretty sure that somewhere between 150 songs and 16 billion songs were released in the decade, which makes it almost certain that there were some fantastic songs that slipped through the net and you’ve never heard. I’m Nostalgic Nick for Doyouremember, and today we’re going to be looking at those bangers. Whether African psychedelia or southern soul, these songs are guaranteed to blow your mind. Be sure to hit the thumbs up and subscribe to our channel, but now, let’s take our deep dive!

    You do not play enough of the music to give us time to recognize the song. AND YOU TALK TO MUCH. You only give us 2 or 3 bars of the music but you babel on about what? I couldn't tell you because it has nothing to do with the song.

      @@breannaolssen5076 Normally I would think that. But these songs are rare and probably need the exposure. Generally it's only copyright infringement if the artist complains. Or the artist is The Eagles, who maybe stretch a bit too far. Plus the guy does talk a little too much anyway.

    "I Can't Stand the Rain" was on Tina Turner's comeback album "Private Dancer" and then I heard Missy Elliot's sample in "Supa Dupa Fly." Finally I heard the original. I discovered Big Star through "The Gilmore Girls" use of "Thirteen." I brought the CD which came with the first two records, and I fell in love with "September Gurls." Finally I heard about "Sex & Drugs & Rock and Roll" a few years ago on a "Top of the Pops" special here on TH-cam.

    There's any excellent song by Julie Budd called "Roses and Rainbows" which was heard prominently in the movie "The Devil and Max Devlin" but for some unknown reason it was only sent out on promo 45's. But was never actually released for sale to the public. Excellent song though! Some have said Julie Budd sounds alot like Streisand! Some say she sounded too much like Streisand, and maybe that was the problem.
