O/T Mega Poptastic Pop Quiz (15)

[CAMiller]

Here's the 2nd pop quiz of the International break?

This time it's onto the 1970s and I must admit I think these are the easiest bunch we've had. Every one of them was in the top 100 sales for at least one of the years during the decade and there are 6 from each year. I'm looking for the title and artist.

REMEMBER - song title and artists needed and limit 5 entries per poster before you need to take a 24 hour break to give others a chance and NO GOOGLING PLEASE (or using your old copies of Words or Disco 45 if you are old school). Pull the answers from the depths of your brain. I know it's tempting when you know 40-50 of these to show your musical chops to the world but please stick to the 5 songs per poster limit and leave some for others.
