You mean, other than half the #1 songs of the '70s?
I always assume a lot of other people like those though, even if they won't admit it.
Xander ,'Get It Done'
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.

Once years ago I brought my Rhino Super Hits of the '70s compilation tape to work. For just about every song that came up, some people were all "Oh, I hate this song; skip it," while others were "No, I love this song!" And which people fell into which group changed from song to song.
Few musical eras are as polarizing as the 70s.
I have great love for the theme for Greatest American Hero. Believe it or not, I'm walking on air. [link]
Try and listen to it without singing, I dare you.
For me, the '70s were Queen, disco, Supertramp, the best years of Chicago, and Little River Band (my first concert!). And lots of other stuff, too.
Believe it or not, I'm walking on air.
I love that song. But I hate "Walking on Sunshine."
I have great love for the theme for Greatest American Hero.
A song that meant quite a bit to me at the time. Spring '81 was the semester I really settled in at college and developed a life. "Greatest American Hero" was all over the radio that summer with it's "life is great" theme.
I'm pretty sure that many, if not all, of the songs I love that I think other people may not Aimee loves as well.
Yeah, I've got a bunch of '70s songs I would put on that list. "Shannon," anyone? Nothing like a song about a dead dog to gloom up an afternoon.
I also love Carole King's soundtrack to Really Rosie completely unironically and listen to it a lot.
I think the '70's have a preponderance of "Songs that should never have been written". Shannon is on that list.
