	It's not "The Sweet". It's just Sweet

	yippeeyappee:	Dec 20th, 2010 at 16:36 GMT		5 points
	Thanks for playing my Hits of the 70s series, everyone! After 21 quizzes, the series is now complete! Coming soon - the 1980s!

	professor_beavis:	Dec 20th, 2010 at 16:42 GMT		10 points
	I think Pinball Wizard should be accredited with The Who, even though Elton John has performed it also.

	burywmore:	Dec 20th, 2010 at 16:51 GMT		3 points
	Why do you have Let Me Roll It, which came off a Wings album (Band on the Run) as credited to McCartney, while Mull of Kintyre as being solely Wings? Did you just need another question or something?

	yippeeyappee:	Dec 20th, 2010 at 16:59 GMT		13 points
	@professor_beavis: The Who did chart this song in the US, in the 1960s! This is about songs released in the 1970s, that did not chart at all!

	MrsSchiebel:	Dec 20th, 2010 at 17:00 GMT		3 points
	Fun quiz! One nitpick: it's Ramones, not The Ramones.

	rockgolf:	Dec 20th, 2010 at 17:02 GMT		13 points
	@Prof_Beavis: I hate to be a butthead, but The Who's version of Pinball Wizard did chart (#19, 1969), so it wouldn't qualify for this list.

	JimAkin:	Dec 20th, 2010 at 17:09 GMT		6 points
	Nice legs, shame about the boat race! I haven't thought of The Monks in ages. Must track down Bad Habits.

	Just after Karn Evil 9 on the results listing became the "These songs are known NOW?" What counts as charting? Since I know Tiny Dancer did poorly. And Baba O'Riley was the B-side to My Wife, which I think charted, so...

	midlifecrisis:	Dec 20th, 2010 at 17:43 GMT		0 points
	Great quiz - I had Goona Raise Hell in my head but couldn't picture who was singing it - what a cheap trick that one was! :)

	amwoods13:	Dec 20th, 2010 at 18:31 GMT		5 points
	@DanoooME: Actually Sweet was occasionally referred to as The Sweet as well. And are you Sandbox Dano? If so, this is Woodman.

	excellent quiz!

	"Call Me The Breeze" is a J.J. Cale tune. Came out in '71. Skynard just covered it.

	The one that amazes me the most is "Isn't She Lovely". I would have sworn that made the charts.

	bordercollie:	Dec 20th, 2010 at 22:54 GMT		0 points
	Fun Quiz...I think 'Gallon of Gas was in '78 tho

	invitro:	Dec 20th, 2010 at 23:12 GMT		2 points
	I had tons of fun with this one. Can't wait for an 80s version!

	bingo5:	Dec 20th, 2010 at 23:20 GMT		5 points
	It was a fun quiz, but noticed not a single female artist?

	dudemanbearpig:	Dec 20th, 2010 at 23:43 GMT		1 point
	I'm glad you included one of my favorite Rush songs.

	"History shows again and again how nature points out the folly of man. Godzilla!"

	So many songs that deserved to be on the charts

	WCRoentgen:	Dec 21st, 2010 at 00:21 GMT		5 points
	@Koltrane: Apparently Stevie Wonder refused Motown's request that Isn't She Lovely be released as a single. Thus, no single to chart.

	Stewart:	Dec 21st, 2010 at 01:01 GMT		1 point
	It wouldn't accept Velvet Underground when I typed it without "The".

	SaberKnight:	Dec 21st, 2010 at 02:06 GMT		2 points
	I didn't even know Elton John did a cover of Pinball Wizard... that's so The Who's song, there was no way I was gonna get that...

	jaymc:	Dec 21st, 2010 at 04:30 GMT		-2 points
	I enjoyed this quiz for the most part. I didn't recognize most of the songs, so it was mostly just a game of "name as many acts from the '70s as you can." Which I didn't mind and which actually worked pretty well! My only complaint is that I sorta wish I knew that there were going to be so many white rock acts, or else I wouldn't have bothered trying Chic, Donna Summer, KC and the Sunshine Band, Kool and the Gang, Marvin Gaye, Earth Wind and Fire, Roberta Flack, Sly and the Family Stone, Parliament/Funkadelic, the Commodores, etc.

	Proof positive that the young have terrible taste in music, then and now.

	Remakes of songs that were hits is pretty cheap. {i.e. Pinball Wizard). since the song charted for one artist makes it a hit song and thus should not be on the list. There have been many remakes that never charted of songs that did. For the most part they did not chart because they are inferior to the previous recording (i.e. Pinball Wizard). Elton John's version is only notable because it was in the film "Tommy". Not worth remembering for its own merits.

	caramba:	Dec 21st, 2010 at 14:55 GMT		2 points
	Re Pinball Wizard: Was in Tommy (as noted), appeared on EJ's Greatest Hits, Volume 2, and actually was a chart hit in many other countries, so I think it was a notable non-hit.

	FreakyFlyBry:	Dec 21st, 2010 at 15:17 GMT		3 points
	I'm surprised the Bee Gees didn't appear on this quiz with "More Than A Woman".
