What are your top 5 Billboard top 10 songs of the 1970"s?

As many agree the 1970’s had the best pop music of any recorded era, I thought it would be very interesting to see what Audiogon members have to say about this. I know 5 is tough but I did not want to make this post too long winded. As always I appreciate your time and selections. My top 5 are...


#1 Baker Street-Gerry Rafferty 1978 #2
#2 Summer Breeze-Seals & Crofts. 1972 #6
#3 American Pie-Don Mclean. 1972 #1
#4 Ricki Don’t Lose That Number. 1974 #4
#5 Miracles-Jefferson Starship. 1975 #3

Yes there are many great songs I could have placed here but this is my list for 8/18/21. Look forward to your responses!

from Billboard's Top 100 for the 1970s (too much effort for me to review 520 top 10 lists); these I'd probably most enjoy listening to repeatedly:
* Won't Get Fooled Again - Who
* Riders on the Storm - Doors
* What's Going On? - Marvin Gaye
* Smiling Faces Sometimes - Undisputed Truth
* Maggie May/Reason to Believe - Rod Stewart
As others have suggested, many album tracks - even into the 70s - were much better than the Billboard Top 100 lists.
