Too easy. 10/10.
10/10... not bad for someone who was born in 1970... love most of these songs though.
10/10...and I didn't even have to read the clues, just the titles.
Aced it! Loved those years...
I did too...it killed me when I missed one! (#6)
9/10; never heard of #10 and missed that one
That there is crazy talk!

How about "Saturday in the Park, think it was the fourth of July..." by Chicago!
You don't understand the list. It's not about songs MENTIONING the Fourth of July, it's about songs that WERE NUMBER ONE ON the Fourth of July, and "Saturday, In the Park" only reached #3.
8/10. Not bad for an older hippie.
HAPPY 4TH EVERYBODY.

10/10. Very easy for a record buff like myself; I still have the vinyl singles of #s 3, 4, 5, 8, and 9; #s 4 and 8 are now locked up inside my newly-restored 1976 Seeburg "sunstar" jukebox.
But #9 holds some special memories for me - three days later, on July 7, 1977 at 7:17 P.M., WVIC in Lansing, Michigan had just finished playing "Undercover Angel" and I heard myself on the radio for the very first time, as well as participating in a contest (I was then 15). The grand prize was an above-ground swimming pool if you could guess how high up a diver was from the pool. I guessed 45 feet but it turned out to be *80* feet - but I won an "original rock" T-shirt, which I *still* have to this day; to be sure, it's worth much money now, especially since WVIC is *no longer* (WVIC-AM, 730, is now Sports/Talk WVFN, "The Fan," and WVIC-FM, 94.9, is now Lansing's Classic Rock, WMMQ).
I also didn't like "Undercover Angel" at first, but after I heard myself on the radio and won the T-shirt, I bought the 45 about a week later. What memories!
