Indieheads Top Songs of the 70's
Five years ago back when I was finishing up Genre Specific Playlist I ran a final set of these called the Decade Specific Playlist to determine the sub's fave songs of the 70s 80's 90's and 2000's . Since then the sub has grown a lot more and the method to determine songs, contest mode post with upvotes, may not have been the best method.
To keep this series in line with the Songs of the Decade list I'll be having users submit their top 25 songs. While the list will be weighted in scoring to also keep in line with that thread the scoring will go as follows
Your Top Song = 30 points
Songs 2-5 = 25 points
Songs 6-10 = 20 points
Songs 11-15 = 15 points
Songs 16-20 = 10 points
Songs 21-25 = 5 points
We'll be taking the top 100 songs to form our list. Also to promote a level of variety Only an artists top 3 songs will make a list (solo work and side projects will be treated as separate entities. other than MF DOOM when he finally shows up, I'll explain it then.) I feel these lists are good for discovery and the last time we did this we capped it at 5 per artists and the lists were STILL very homogenous.
This week we'll be tackling my fave decade, the 70's. Please use the following form to submit your lists. Submissions will be closed Midnight Saturday night.

McCoy was a celebrated figure during the disco era, mainly as a songwriter, music arranger, and producer. However, his surprise 1975 hit "The Hustle" from the album Disco Baby remains one of the most memorable songs from the era. The track, inspired by the popular disco dance move, topped the Billboard Hot 100 chart and even won the Best Pop Instrumental Performance Grammy. McCoy had a few more singles that charted during his career as a recording artist, but nothing close to the prominence of "The Hustle."

Reviews for "The Secrets Within: Demystifying the Shadow Witch's Enigmatic Collection"
1. Jennifer - 2/5 stars - I was really disappointed with "The Shadow Witch Collection". The storyline felt disjointed and lacked depth. The characters were one-dimensional and the dialogue felt forced. I struggled to connect with the protagonist and found myself uninterested in her journey. The pacing was also off, with moments of intense action followed by long stretches of boredom. Overall, I found this collection to be lacking in substance and would not recommend it.
2. Michael - 1/5 stars - I can honestly say that "The Shadow Witch Collection" is one of the worst fantasy books I've ever read. The writing was incredibly amateurish, with poor grammar and awkward phrasing. The plot was predictable and unoriginal, offering nothing new or exciting to the genre. The world-building was also lacking, leaving me with many unanswered questions about the setting and magic system. I struggled to finish this collection and felt like I wasted my time. Save yourself the trouble and skip this one.
3. Emily - 2/5 stars - "The Shadow Witch Collection" had so much potential, but it ultimately fell flat for me. The pacing was incredibly slow, and I found myself constantly waiting for something interesting to happen. The characters were underdeveloped and lacked depth, making it hard for me to care about their struggles. The romance subplot felt forced and unrealistic. While there were a few intriguing ideas in the story, they were not explored in a satisfying way. I would not recommend this collection to anyone looking for a captivating fantasy read.
4. David - 3/5 stars - While "The Shadow Witch Collection" had its moments, overall, I was left feeling underwhelmed. The writing was decent, but the plot was predictable and lacked originality. The characters felt like cliches, and their actions often felt contrived. The world-building had potential, but it wasn't fully fleshed out, leaving me with unanswered questions. Despite some interesting magical elements, this collection failed to hold my attention and left me wanting more.
5. Samantha - 2/5 stars - I was expecting so much more from "The Shadow Witch Collection", but unfortunately, it fell short of my expectations. The pacing was inconsistent, with moments of excitement followed by long stretches of boredom. The protagonist felt like a cookie-cutter character, and I struggled to connect with her on any level. The dialogue felt flat and unnatural, making it hard for me to believe in the story. While there were a few interesting ideas sprinkled throughout, they weren't enough to redeem this collection for me.
