1970s:

Mississippi Queen-Mountain
One Toke Over the Line-Brewer and Shipley
Play That Funky Music-Wild Cherry


1980s:

Funkytown-Lipps, Inc.
Key Largo-Bertie Higgins
Mickey-Tony Basil

1990s:

I Touch Myself-The Divinyls-great video, too!
Walkin' in Memphis-Mark Kohn
What is Love-Haddaway

2000s:
Remains to be seen!

I also loved "Shannon" by Henry Gross (I believe that was his name)...if I am not mistaken, it was a "One Hit Wonder" in the 1970s. It was poignant because that was my best friend's name, but he wrote the song about a dog that obviously drowned.

This was a fun topic! Thanks!

I believe this version is by Helen Reddy; it's "I Don't Know How To Love Him", originally, I think, sung in the musical Jesus Christ Superstar. This vid is from my favorite tv show, House.
