I have tons more from the 70s, but they aren't "70s" songs (for example, The Clash, Blondie, Elvis Costello).
To me, "Escape (The Pina Colada Song)", "Billy Don't Be a Hero", and "Brandy" are the ultimate "70s" songs.

There's a lady plays her fav'rite records/On the jukebox ev'ry day/All day long she plays the same old songs/And she believes the things that they say/She sings along with all the saddest songs/And she believes the stories are real/She lets the music dictate the way that she feels.

I would need some Statler Bros, Charlie Pride, Barry Manillow, John Denver, Olivia Newton John, Loretta Lynn, Crystal Gayle,
I have some country on my list as well. Kenny Rogers, David Allen Coe, etc.
I should!
Don't forget the songs from the Grease soundtrack.
Oh, did anyone mention "The Night Chicago Died"?
The Pina Colada song is bound up in my mind with "Afternoon Delight" and "Margaritaville"
Also, Delta Dawn and I Am Woman Hear me Roar, I Never Promised You a Rose Garden, Ode to Billy Jo, She's a Little Bit Country, I'm a Little Bit Rock and Roll, Don't Stop Thinkin About Tomorrow.
I think I might have to head over to brawk....
Papa Was A Rolling Stone?
Was Styx's "Renegade" from the '70s, or was that early '80s?
OOH, good call! 1979
Also good call, Jesse
