Karen would be in her early 70s now but we will only ever remember her as being eternally young and beautiful.

Copacabana as sung by Barry Manilow but the version sung by Dave Grohl. It's on YouTube and it's brilliant.
Might not count as it was done during lockdown but I don't routinely listen to 70s stuff, bit early for me.

Never Going Back Again by Fleetwood Mac. I was only a kid when it was released and my parents didn’t play much music so I was never very familiar with them, but I’ve found I actually love lots of their music as I’ve got older.

RoyKentsChestHair · 17/04/2022 23:15

I Shazam loads of old music from films and This Is Us so my playlist is an interesting mix!

The majority of what I listen to is from the 70's.

I thought it was Heart of Glass, my 17 year old was playing songs from her party playlist when we were all tidying up after tea. But Google tells me it was Lust for Life about an hour ago, must have been on the telly.
