I put my grandmother to listen and dance with me to these songs, she was already 20-23 years old at the time (1967-1970, by my count), but even today she has the soul of a teenager, I love her very much, she is my grandmother, my mother and my best friend ❤

I was born in the 70’s and grew up listening to all of this. Brings back many many memories of those I love but are no longer with us. Nostalgia can be a real kick in the butt all while making you smile. 🤦‍♀️

Can’t wait to feel old and nostalgic when i’m 60 and hearing WAP in a “pov: you’re a teen in the 2020s playlist”

I was there. I was a teenager from 74-80. Music is everything. Thanks for this.

I remember when I used to work in a nursing home, one of our residents was a huge hippie from the 70’s. We’d bond over all the classics and she had so many dvd’s in her room, always blasting songs. I miss her sometimes.

The good old days and I'm happy to have been a part of the 70s. I graduated from high school in 1977. Thank you for posting this song list.

[richaelblewett]

I graduated high school in selection of music. Every time I hear The Joker by Steve Miller Band, I think of my then surfer boyfriend Fred. Thank you for sharing. 😘

Proud Class of 78. Isn't it fun how high waisted wide legged jeans and side burns are back in style?

[Cherry.Stars]

When I saw this I thought of the Marauders, but then when "All The Young Dudes" came on I almost screamed... this is perfect! Thank you!

[bloodofredmoon]

Anyone here that is absolutely not from the 70s but vibing and feeling nostalgic to this music anyway?

My favorite fun fact about I Want You To Want Me (the last song) is that it really didn't do well in the west...but Japan? Japan LOVED it. The version you're hearing with the crowd cheering is a concert in Japan in 1978. The vintage inverse equivalent of American teenagers shouting jpop lyrics they don't understand, and now that recording is the 'official' version of the song.

I was there, but I was a child. A large portion of the greatest music of all time was created in the 1970s. I didn't realize that I was growing up during a Renaissance. The world could use another one.

Love these songs. My parents were both teens in the 80s but still would've listened to these. They don't care much for music, so I enjoy it for all of us.

[myhvids]

This is a great mix with a bunch of songs they don't play on oldies radio. Thanks for the memories

[kandiconner]

The 70's were such great times, I love the music and everything about it . I'll be 59 tomorrow and this just takes me right back there ❤❤❤❤🌸🌸🌺🌺🌺

My mom loves to tell me stories about how Heart played at her highschool dances to make me jealous.

[weebermannsfolly]

These will be on the playlist at the 420-friendly senior living facility that should exist somewhere, if it doesn't already
