    I think the 70's were the only decade in the past 100+ years in which European fashion and culture was superior to north american culture.

    I'll assume then, that the yo-yo was your favorite thing from the 70's and you were a HUGE fan of Elton John fashion, and that Leo Sawyer is your hunk of the decade.

    I had a 1979 corvette for while. Pearle Color. Bad for cruising country roads, so I sold it.

    I absolutely LOVED the '70s - it took me from Grade 5 to second year university. Lots to cover during that decade!

    Best fashion from the 70's?

    I was tall, so didn't wear platforms much, but had an amazing pair which were two tone purple and lavender suede, with a heart design going towards the toe - they were most awesome!
    We had to wear a uniform for high school, so not much chance to get all into fashion...

    However, I ADORED my Earth shoes - wish I hadn't worn them out!



    Toe socks were kewl!



    Peasant tops
    Pantsuits - especially ones with long vests!

    Worst fashion from the 70's?

    Men's polyester shirts - ew! Same with leisure suits.

    Best song from the 70's?

    Will post some of my faves below.

    Too many to mention; loved so many!
    Beginning to middle of decade - Simon and Garfinkel; James Taylor - Fire and Rain; Queen - Somebody to Love
    Later - The Cars - Just what I needed; The Knack - My Sharona; ABBA - all of them!; BeeGees - Sat. Night Fever; Fleetwood Mac - anything on Rumors; Blondie...

    Best looking babe/sir from the 70's?

    David Cassidy!



    Best film from the 70's?

    Star Wars! Waited in line that was blocks long, then had to sit in the aisle!
    Saturday Night Fever!

    Best trend or craze from the 70's?

    Disco! I was a dancing fool!
    Mood rings
    Superballs
    Clackers!




    Worst trend or craze from the 70's?

    Pet rocks - we painted our own!

    Best car or truck from the 70's?

    Gremlin, Pacer

    Personal best thing to happen to you in the 70's (if applicable)

    Had awesome teenage years with school, work and social life, high school was awesome, and so was university!

    Add any further views on the 70's if you want!

    It was a fun and innocent time for me, at least - being in a small city, then moving to a bigger one.
    Lots of freedom, lots of fun!
