Is 1974 the most candy assed year in music history?

[Illustrious Potentate]

You’re Having My Baby
Annie’s Song
I Honestly Love You
Hooked on a Feeling
Angie Babe
the Way We Were
Sunshine on my Shoulders

All topped the charts in 74. There’s a lot of songs on the list that I don’t recognize that I’m sure were sissy songs too

I was going to try to refute this, but outside of a few good songs by Lynyrd Skynrd, Doobie Brothers and Bad Company 1974 looks like a pretty shit year.

I’m sure there was a lot of great music, and I’m not a hits or charts guy, but this is more about I’ve never seen a year with more such wussy songs that topped the chart. I mean, no wonder that abomination that is disco took off soon after if this is what was dominating the charts

1973. No Duane, and only a bit of Berry but still a damn fine album.

1999

Baby one more time
Genie in a bottle
I want it that way
Bills Bills Bills
lullaby
I do (cherish you)

The best song that topped the charts in 1974 was “Sundown” by Gordon Lightfoot, and that was far from his best work
