Howdy-hi, folks! I’m the kind of person who needs inspiration to build playlists. I started this series using my parents as a bench mark to know where I wanted to go and I’m going to keep the same theme line by choosing the year of particular family members when they became a teenager. Today, I’m using DH. He turned 13 in 1972 and here are the top 10 songs I used from The US Top 40 Singles list.
Top Ten Songs playlist tracks:
- Baby Don’t Get Hooked On Me ~Mac Davis
- Black and White ~Three Dog Night
- Saturday in the Park ~Chicago
- Back Stabbers ~The O’Jays
- Alone Again (Naturally) ~Gilbert O’Sullivan
- Ben ~Michael Jackson
- Everybody Plays the Fool ~The Main Ingredient
- Honky Cat ~Elton John
- Go All the Way ~The Raspberries
- Rock n’ Roll (Part 2) ~Gary Glitter
I was 10-years old most of 1972 but I remember these songs and they got a lot of airtime for much of the 70s. The songs that resonate more freshly in my mind are tracks 1, 2, and 8. How about you, which of these song come to the forefront of your memories?
Let’s build a playlist together! Leave a high charting song from 1972 in comments and if I use it, then I’ll give you credit for the contribution.
In times past I’ve joined Stacy’s Tuesday Random Thoughts and Sandee’s Happy Tuesday. I’m trying to figure how I want to add these back into my blogging routine and while I may not participate, I plan to visit these lovely ladies today. I hope you’ll grab your coffee and follow my lead.
That’s it for today. Join me tomorrow for my newest edition of Wild Wednesdays, the party where just about anything goes! X💋X💋, Cathy
