Thanks for the reminder–I've been meaning to add a few more songs to my Top 10 List, which is now way over 10 songs:

Tell Me Something Good - Rufus
Long Cool Woman in a Black Dress - The Hollies
American Woman - The Guess Who

1. Styx – Renegade
2. AC/DC – Back in Black
3. Abba – Dancing Queen
4. Boston – More Than A Feeling
5. Billy Joel – My Life
6. Dire Straits – Down to the Waterline
7. Pink Floyd – Fearless
8. Gary Numan – Are Friends Electric?

Quite recently I completed a comprehensive survey of adult humans —partially using The Google — and my results, which will be published in an Important Academic Research Paper by An Important American Collegiate Institution, concluded, that, without a doubt, "Play That Funky Music" by Wild Cherry is the greatest song ever recorded. And, my associates tell me, it was released during the 1970's.
