O/T Mega Poptastic Pop Quiz (17)

[CAMiller]

Well here we have another 60 earworms for you to work through whilst you await the return of real football on the 20th. All these are from the 1960s and 1970s (no clues which are which of course ) and as usual some are easy and some a bit more challenging. Every one of them was in the top 100 sales for at least one of the years between 1960-1979. Which ones will you go for?
