Wow! I forgot how many truly brilliant tracks were from 1979.

[perseusjoppa]

ABBA, Village People, Bee Gees, Electric Light Orchestra, Queen, KISS, Donna Summer, Kenny Rogers, Chic, Michael Jackson, Earth, Wind & Fire, Olivia Newton-John, Boney M, Blondie, what an incredible year for music! However, three of my favorite 1979 songs were not included on this video: "Da Ya Think I'm Sexy" by Rod Stewart, "Too Much Heaven" by the Bee Gees and "Rasputin" by Boney M.

[boutrousgali]

It's hard to believe that we went from this music to what we have today!

[vaccavo]

For decades, I searched for that song "Spirits", thinking it was Andy Gibb. Thanks to you, I found it now. It is the Bee Gees.

[francispelletier]

1979 is one of the best musical era ever, so much variety and inspirated songs. Love it ! Thanks for the video.

[robtyman]

Was 1979 the best year of the 70's musically? ...it gets my vote. So diverse - it had ballads, euro pop, hard rock, prog rock, punk, country, soul etc

[fabbi]

My favourite songs here 😍
Another brick in the wall
Hold the line
Honesty
I have a dream
I was made for loving you
I will survive
Save me
September
The logical song
Tragedy
We don't talk anymore

[joseesquivel]

There is not a bad song in this list, not a single one!!! It's just amazing, just wonderfull, Quality great music back in those days, all music difrent styles, great arragements, great compositions, amazing, wow!!! And that was just some little great songs form 1979 ( some) plus lots others amazing songs form that same year plus

[tdyerwestfield]

Is it weird that I wasn't born until 16 years after these songs were released, but I'm convinced 1979 is the best year for music?

[americarsqueensland]

1979 was the best year in modern history for music, it was a spectacular year, I remember it well, every week multiple new good songs!

[mak]

Wow, what a compilation. Full of 70s disco sound but the 80s are already approacing around the corner!

[mariodarcy]

ABBA has 6 songs in this compilation, 5 from the same album (Voulez vous). Great year for them and for music in general.

[Awibrahor]

This channel brings back so many happy memories. Nice to hear and see all these great performers again in the prime of their lives. Thank you for creating these fine compilations!

[carlosaz]

there is more quality and variety in this year of music than in the last 20 years. The ending 70s and early 80s is the best period of music, lightyears ahead of any other

[simonstill]

Just brilliant!!!! The best year in music for me

[doolybugz]

Such an eclectic mix of songs, creativity and originality was a thing back then and they had quality and talent in spades.
