206. Explosions in the sky - Your Hand In Mine
A lot of their songs sound similar to me but they're all awesome.

205. Left Banke - Walk Away Renee
I bet 99% of you have heard this but 10% could name the band. If you ask me tomorrow I won't remember.

Fun fact: Michael McKean (Lenny/David St. Hubbins/Chuck McGill) was briefly a member of the band.

203. Electric Light Orchestra - Livin' Thing
Extremely tough pick for me. So many great classics that I really like that I'm going to link some of the others.

Binky, please post a photo of you in high school. I bet you look like Gerry Beckley (center) on that Homecoming album cover.

lol - never thought about it, similar haircut though and I wore contacts (but had wire rim glasses I didn't wear much).
I think I have posted this before ...this is a couple of years out of high school.

You don't have a pic with those wire frames? You were wearing them last two times I saw you, you telling me you didn't wear them in the 70's?

naw ...I wore contacts basically 24/7 since I was 13. I hated my glasses.
When you saw me I had some issues with my eyes drying out and had to stop wearing contacts. Just recently started wearing contacts some again.

I personally would have gone with Memorial, but these guys are one of my favorite bands of the early aughts.

Any chance we see Gordon Lightfoot in the top 200?

As it turns out, *the* Nigel Tufnel @Nigel Tufnel @bigbottomplayed with the actual band outside the TV show, forming the basis for Spinal Tap a few years later.

I really love ELO - so, I am not at all crit'n the picks - these are sweet. But, I want to add a really cool ELO video.
E.L.O (Electric Light Orchestra) All Over The World
It must have been fun making this thing.

I just learned it myself doing a Wiki search on Lenny & The Squigtones.
Wikipedia = often maligned yet highly underrated.

A quick google of "songs about cats" gave me only three top choices from the 70s: (1) "Honky Cat" by Elton John, which no person would ever choose as their Elton John song; (2) "Cool for Cats" by Squeeze, but shuke already took "Tempted" by them earlier, and (3) my therefore-default answer, "Year of the Cat" by Al Stewart.

BONUS MATERIAL ALERT
Before we dive into the top 200, I need to post these three egregious misses on my part.
1001. Simon and Garfunkel - The Boxer
Not sure what happened here. I could have sworn it was in my list at some point, but maybe I accidentally deleted it. Should be somewhere in the middle of the top 100.
1002. Guess Who - No Sugar Tonight / New Mother Nature
Not sure how I missed them, but realized last week that I did. I love this song. Should be somewhere around 250.
1003. Foghat - Slow Ride
Another miss. Only explanation I can think of is that when I first started assembling my list, I was trying to stay away from overplayed classic rock, and then when I started to add them back, I missed it. Should be somewhere around 700.
A few others...
1004. Jonathan Edwards - Sunshine
Hadn't heard it for a long time until recently. Should be somewhere around 850.
1005. Edwyn Collins - A Girl Like You
This was posted in one of the one hit wonder threads recently. I don't think I've ever heard it. Would have put it somewhere in the 900's.
1006. New Madrid - Country Moon Pt. 1
Heard this on Spotify or the radio in recent weeks. Would have found a spot for it if I had heard it earlier.

I love these two. For some reason I've never loved S&G as much as most people seem to, but that song certainly does it for me. The Edwyn Collins one is a great guilty pleasure.
