Musical Artists Of The 70′s
What are some songs that really represent the decade they were made during?
I was hanging around with friends the other day at a local burger joint, and they played "Never Gonna Give You Up" by Rick Astley. After talking about rick rolling for a minute, my friend exclaimed that the song was "so eighties". After he said that I got to thinking about the music that makes a decade, so I decided to embark on a project where I would make a CD of 18 songs, two for each of the following decades: the 20's/30's/40's/50's/60's/70's/80's/90's/2000's. However, I am having trouble thinking of the songs, So I turned to Yahoo Answers.
If you can help me, please include the song title, the song artist and the year it was released. Also, explain why it fits its decade so well. I would like songs that share the musical sound and cultural sentiment of the decade in question.
-1920s-Ain't Misbehavin' by Fats Waller released 1929 and West End Blues by King Oliver released 1928
-1930s- Stardust by Bing Crosby released 1931 and Pennies From Heaven by Frank Sinatra (the original was released in 1936 by Bing Crosby, although my favorite version is Sinatra's and I'm not sure when it was released)
-1940s-Chattanooga Choo Choo by Glen Miller released 1941 and (There'll Be Bluebirds Over) the White Cliffs of Dover by Vera Lynn released 1942
-1950s-Earth Angel (Will You Be Mine) by the Penguins released 1954 and Maybellene by Chuck Berry released 1955
-1960s-For What It's Worth by Buffalo Springfield released 1967 and All You Need Is Love by the Beatles released 1967
-1970s-Love Grows (Where My Rosemary Goes) by Edison Lighthouse released 1970 and Stairway to Heaven by Led Zeppelin released 1971
-1980s-Tainted Love by Soft Cell released 1981 and (although it was released in late 1979) Video Killed the Radio Star by the Buggles
-1990s-I Want It That Away by Backstreet Boys released 1999 and Smells Like Teen Spirit by Nirvana released 1991
In my opinion these songs just very much embody the style and the sentiment of the decade.
60's, 70's, 80's. THAT'S MUSIC!!! Part 24
