Lame. I need 50 posts to post links. Anyway, Maggie May by Rod Stewart or, if that doesn't count, Angie by The Stones. Go look them up if you don't know them. They are the awesome!

Strange Magic is a good one!

Here are a few others from the '70s. Two of these are older than I am, and the third is close, but I still like them. Good thing my parents weren't into popular music at the time... so none of this feels like my parents' music.

YouTube - Looking glass - Brandi you're a fine girl

YouTube - Summer Breeze - Seals & Croft #1 Hit(1972)

YouTube - Al Stewart - Year of the Cat

(The last one is one is fun to play on bass.)

Call me cheesy but I heart this song SO much.

YouTube - Extreme - More Than Words
