Like my lists for the 1980s, I have three rules:Ģ) For the top 40 only, no more than one song per artistģ) The song had to be released in that decade (date is determined by record sleeve, or )ĥ00) Mr. A lot of the first 45s I bought, especially from '77 and '78, are on this list, and a lot of great songs that I didn't discover until well after the 70s were over are also on the list. This list is undoubtedly affected by the fact that I didn't discover commercial radio until midway through the decade. There are worthy artists who are omitted because I just never got into them, and there are unworthy artists who were included because I don't feel quite guilty enough about those particular guilty pleasures. As with the other lists, it's a highly subjective list of the top 500 songs of the decade according to me and only me. I'm interspersing decade lists with the interview about making decade lists.
