How many of you remember this by Mary Hopkin?

Or Mardo Gras singing this Marvin Gaye number?

Who can remember The Move singing this?

Or the Archies singing this?

I can also recall Middle of the Road singing this.

This song by the Pipkins used to crack me up.

And then there was Mungo Jerry with this. The video on Youtube gives you a reminder of the fashions at the time.

My gramma was the same with Lawrence Welk. So I get it. I really do. My grandma use to cook and tap dance at the same time!

 
I watched Lawrence Welk with my gramma every week!  She loved the dancers...Bobby and Cissy?  And Joanne Castle, rockin' on that piano! lol

Did Vicki Lawence do "Ode to Billy Joe" or are you thinking of "That's the Night That The Lights Went Out In Georgia"?  Reba McEntire covered it later on.

Hey Hippy, here's a memory jogger I bet, where were you the first time you heard "Don't bogart that joint"?
 That would be the first time I heard the soundtrack to "Easy Rider". I had become "experienced" around May 69 and was morphing to a Hippie (ran away at 15).  Returned home, and there was a professor of Sociology at SUNY-Brockport who had rented a little house not far from me. I and a couple other local kids used to hang around there and occasionally smoke a bit. Heard that and "Woodstock" for the first time there. This was around late summer 1970, after I had been returned home after taking off again and hitching my way to AZ, then to the US/Canada border at Blaine, Washington. Interesting journey. I remember peaking on the continental divide near Pike's Peak after getting out of jail for hitchhiking. Had fasted for 3 days. Two German freaks turned me on to some Czech stuff.

And the popular song those days was Nine Inch Nails' "Fuck you like an Animal". That, and most of Nirvana, and Sublime...that was what music was to me as a child.

That's funny...just last night I was on Youtube watching an old video of "Please Please Me".  I'll never get tired of those old songs.  I think "All You Need is Love" is such an awsome song.
Here a linky!

Oh wow, yesssssssss everything but the Move.
I went to see Mary Hopkins with my family at the London palladium. I remember her on opportunity knocks!
The Archies and Sugar Sugar was or is one of my all time favourites as we learned a dance called the slosh and it used to play two or three times per class.


Another one I love but hasnt been mentioned yet, is This  by Norman Greenbaum
and This by BookerT and the MGs

Then, I think it was in '74 or '75... When I was just starting High School...Saturday Night Live had just premired... and they hosted a young lady named Kate Bush, who sang this song, "The Man With the Child in His Eyes" while lying atop a piano....

I haven't been the same since.

I was thinking they were both on the same 8 track, but I admit many moons have passed since then, so I could be wrong...lol.

Wow....and they said that stuff would kill your memory, apparently not huh? All I recalled was it was probably the first time I picked up a guitar, of course it took another 30 years to actually learn how to play one...lol.

Status: offline 		One of the most memorable years of my life was 1981 when I was 15 - the riots in the North of England, running away from home, and generally getting up to no good.

I got to know some bikers (man I love bikers, bikers rock) and they shaped my early tastes in music, my first single I ever bought was the Ramones My Sharona, my first album was Motorhead's 'Bomber' which included this and inspired me to pick up a guitar. My next album was Meatloaf's Bat Out Of Hell, and I bought simultaneously two 12 inch singles. The first was Motorhead's City Kids, and the second was Jimi Hendrix's Red House.

But then I also discovered a record company too, and if there was ever one record label which influenced my teenage years (besides the rock) it would have to be Trojan Records, with artists like The Pioneers, and such stuff as Liquidator by Harry J. All Stars, Pied Piper by Bob and Marcia, and others.

How many of you remember Quantum Jump singing this? Or Jilted John singing this?

But for a blast from the past how many of you can remember this?

Or this?

Or this?
