March 14, 201411 yr Maybe I would do the series of threads with all my favourites in every year from 70s and 80s decades. Something like "Alex's Sound Of ... (add any year)", but I think that some great songs from 1970 must be mentioned here. Dutch charts were cool (if you didn't know it before :) ). Treasure of old good songs. Samantha Jones - My Way (Peak position : # 3 in Netherlands, # 4 in Belgium) SpLWxf6G3s8 Bonnie St. Claire - I Won't Stand Between Them (Peak position : # 6 in Netherlands) MVLQyYf1n4U Corry & De Rekels - Huilen Is Voor Jou Te Laat (Peak position : # 6 in Netherlands) J5JhurnCmL8
March 14, 201411 yr Susan Jacks & Poppy Family - That's Where I Went Wrong (# 29 in United States) sPDinVpMSJs Steve Rowland & Family Dogg - Sympathy (# 1 in Netherlands) Rw4V-ScFp-c
March 14, 201411 yr I pretty much like all of those in the 82, and many made my last 1970 listing (a couple of years ago I did a comprehensive review of 1970, youtubed every American chart hit I didn't know, bought many, and compiled my ultimate 1970 Top 200. There were loads of great American minor hits that never made it over to the UK) B-) Edited March 14, 201411 yr by popchartfreak
March 14, 201411 yr Rare Bird Sympathy is a good song, though I was more familiar with the Marillion version

I can complete only top 40 or top 50 my favourite songs list for any single year. Even with Dutch charts and Eurovision. :)
