This is It - Kenny Loggins September - Earth, Wind and Fire Listen to the Music - The Doobie Brothers Superstition - Stevie Wonder Sir Duke - Stevie Wonder Roundabout - Yes Black Dog - Led Zeppelin Riders On the Storm - The Doors Your Song - Elton John Killer Queen - Queen
I could have a different opinion on a different day, and I did try to switch it up with bands/performers here even though Stevie Wonder gets two songs. Also, just because these are the 10 best doesn't mean I don't want to hear something else. China Grove is a need for me once in a while as is Highway to Hell...and Foreplay/Long Time is one of the best technically precise songs ever written.
Roundabout? Is rather poke an eye out than listen to that POS..
Then you don't like one of the best classic rock songs ever from a band filled with great musicians.
Flappole, there's a place for bands and songs like your pushing here as your number one, and I believe The Drive By Truckers pretty much nailed it in this sweet number I'd like to share with you, if I may -
Hmm. Well, first of all, I aready said that I didn't say Kenny Loggins was great, only that his ONE song titled This Is It is one of the top 10 of the 1970s, but since you brought up this comparison thing, let's see what the facts say:
Kenny Loggins Awards (Note that for awards mentioned more than once, that means he won that award more than once):
Best Original Song Best Original Music Outstanding Special Class Program Outstanding Original Song Best Original Song Best New Artist Best Score Soundtrack for Visual Media Song of the Year Best Male Pop Vocal Performance (this was for This Is It) Best Male Rock Vocal Performance Best Rock Performance by a Duo or Group with Vocal Best Score Soundtrack for Visual Media Best Male Pop Vocal Performance Best Male Pop Vocal Performance Best Musical Album for Children Best Musical Album for Children Best New Age Album Best Original Score
Drive-By Truckers awards:
Best Pop Instrumental Album
So, I think Loggins wins there. Also, Loggins' net worth is listed at $16 million while the lead singer for the Drive-By Truckers is $1 million.
Loggins is past his prime of course, but he was a big deal in the late 70s and 80s, writing scores for major motion pictures, charting high. Your comparison just doesn't work here at all.
And yet, even with all that, the Drive-By Truckers have 246 songs that are better than Kenny Loggins' This Is It.

Flagpole, I don't think you are getting this - I am not comparing Kenny Loggins to The Drive By Truckers. I'm simply saying that their song expresses where your boy and his song belong - as an "Opening Act" (the name of the song of theirs that I referenced).
That said, I'm astounded that he won so many awards. What's with that?
But if you want to know 10 songs that I do think are better than that one of your boy's, I did post those in a seperate post, if you care.
Now I know that this thread is about best songs and not the performance, but you tell me whose concert you would rather attend if you were transported back to the 1970s.
Check out the slick intro buildup and then at the 45 second mark, I'd like to see Kenny Logins pull that off.
I agree. You should not be allowed to listen to or have an opinion about any music written or performed before your birthdate. Same thing with movies or history in general.
Got laid for the first time, 51 years ago, I used her, she used me, but neither one cared. We were getting our share.....and it was Summertime...sweet Summertime.
Strange how the night moves. With autumn closing in.
