10 Songs Every 70s Kid Knows — But Forgot the Band

10 songs every 70s kid remembers — but can you still name the bands that sang them? These Forgotten Songs were once everywhere on American radio, yet some of the artists behind them have nearly disappeared from memory. You know the melody. You remember the chorus. You might even know every word. But do you remember the band? In this countdown, we’re bringing back 10 Forgotten Songs from the 1970s that instantly transport you to another time. These were the songs playing from car radios, record players, jukeboxes, and speakers throughout the decade. Some came from bands with one unforgettable hit. Others were recorded by groups whose names slowly faded even though their music never completely left us. Here’s the challenge: before each band is revealed, see if you can name them yourself. You may be surprised by how many songs you recognize in seconds — and how few artist names you can actually remember. Stay until #1, because one of these Forgotten Songs is still instantly recognizable today, even if the band behind it has become much harder to remember. How many bands did you get right?
