Feeling nostalgic? We’ve rounded up the best 70’s songs

It was the number one hit for nine weeks in the UK in 1975, and to this day is an extremely well-known and respected song. There are plenty of theories as to why it's such a popular song, perhaps because it embodies so many emotions and reflects this in the crescendo of the chorus, or maybe it's due to the very catchy melody. Either way this song lives in the hall of fame, and was recently voted in the UK as 'The best song of all time'.

After quickly climbing the charts, Rock N Roll all Nite became one of Kiss's signature songs and the last one played in their encores at gigs. It may not be as musically complex as some of their other songs, but it's ridiculously catchy and all in all a very feel-good song.

There's no doubt that this was one of the most defining tracks for Fleetwood Mac. As it was due to this song that their album Rumours gathered so much popularity and this was the first track of theirs to land a position in the Top Ten, in the US.

Aside from pioneering the Punk genre, the Sex Pistols regularly had songs in the charts, and God Save The Queen is a prime example of this. It made number one on the NME charts in the UK and due to its controversial nature and lyrics, it was actually banned from playing on the radio by the BBC in 1977.

It comes as no surprise that this has made our list of the best 70s songs. Aside from reaching number 1 on the Billboard Top 100 songs, it's a pretty relatable song as it explores the emotions of heartbreak and ultimately is a very empowering track about strength.

An iconic American song, Thunder Road continues to be a popular track even to this day. In fact, it was ranked as one of Springsteen's greatest songs and currently holds position number 86 Rolling Stone's 500 Greatest Songs of All Time list.

A solid feel-good anthem, Shining Star was Earth, Wind & Fire's greatest hit. It also reached number one on both the Billboard Hot 100 chart and the Billboard Hot Soul Songs chart. This track was their first single to top both charts.

Despite its upbeat tempo and melody, this track actually discusses quite a few difficult issues and references the BBC reports that were broadcast during the worst times of WWII. Nonetheless, it was and remains one of the best songs of the 70s.

It doesn't get more classic rock than Stairway To Heaven. It's incredibly popular sought-after, making it a typical song for an aspiring guitarist to learn, and it's also the biggest-selling single piece of sheet music in rock history, having sold over one million copies.

You can't think of the band Bee Gees, without thinking of their signature song Stayin' Alive. It hit the number one spot on the Billboard Hot 100 in 1978 and remained there for four weeks. It was also played at the beginning of Saturday Night Fever.

The pop-punk anthem quickly rose to popularity and remains a well-known song to this day, it was also played at John Peelu2019s funeral.

Of course, we had to include this one. An incredibly euphoric and melodic track, and has been said to be one of the best pop songs ever.

Definitely one of the most non-politically correct songs to emerge from that decade, Brown Sugar became the number one Billboard hit in 1971. It's huge popularity overshadowed the controversy and issues present in the song.

Another incredibly catchy and iconic song that the 70s decade has given us.

An impressively funky and impossibly catchy song, Superstition is clearly one of the best 70s songs.

The opening of the song, much like an open stretch of road is pretty easy to recognise and we love it. It has been said that the band this track was about their difficult touring schedule.

There's been plenty of different stories circulating about what truly inspired Dolly Parton to write the number one single (in 1974) Jolene, while we may never know the truth, what we do know is that we love this track!

A very inspiring and melodic track, Imagine is still played in plenty of places to this current day.

Although it was released at the beginning of the decade, its popularity continued to grow and soar well into the mid-2000s. In fact, Hocus Pocus was used in the film Baby Driver and in a Nike commercial.
