    The Captain and Tenille really are the sound of the 70s to me. I'm glad they topped the charts in 1980.

    With the exception of 2, 10, and 11, I have every one of these songs in my collection. I'll probably wind up buying 2 and 11 one of these days.

    Oh, that may date me, I knew almost all the songs by title, and I know very, very little about music. My kids even say I hate music. LOL

    Oh, this brings back memories! I was at the dewey, romantic beginning of what turned out to be a long and really twisted relationship. But when these songs were popular, everything was still sweet and good. Sigh. (Thanks for visiting my TT)

    Yep - I can *still* play each of them in my head! Can't remember where I put my car keys, though ;D

    My TT this week is on the top movies of the 80's. Stop by and check it out.

    I didn't remember It's Only Rock and Roll To Me being that old.

    I can't believe I'm about to admit this, but the very first concert I ever went to was Captain and Tenille (slinks away in shame).
