In the mood to revisit your childhood and rock out to a few hits from 1978? These three songs had quite a bit of success the year they were released, and I bet just about every 70s kid out there remembers each and every word to these tunes. Let\u2019s dive in!<\/p>\n
\u201cProve It All Night\u201d by Bruce Springsteen from \u2018Darkness On The Edge Of Town\u2019<\/p>\n
\u201cYou hear their voices telling you not to go \/ They made their choices and they\u2019ll never know \/ What it means to steal, to cheat, to lie \/ What it\u2019s like to live and die to.\u201d<\/p>\n
This song is on the raunchier side of Bruce Springsteen\u2019s discography. But even those who were too young to really get what \u201cprove it all night\u201d (wink wink) really meant likely belted this song out throughout 1978, mainly because it\u2019s just so dang catchy.<\/p>\n
\u201cProve It All Night\u201d wasn\u2019t a huge hit when it was released, peaking at No. 33 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart. However, it has since become a staple on classic rock radio.<\/p>\n
\u201cWith a Little Luck\u201d by Wings from \u2018London Town\u2019<\/p>\n
\u201cWith a little luck, with a little luck \/ With a little love, baby.\u201d<\/p>\n
How about some good ol\u2019 yacht rock with a touch of synth-pop goodness a la Paul McCartney? The use of synths was still pretty \u201cnew\u201d in 1978, but McCartney, as always, was ahead of the curve. This song from London Town was a No. 1 hit on the Hot 100 chart, and it remains one of the most optimistic songs in Wings\u2019 discography.<\/p>\n
\u201cHold The Line\u201d by Toto from \u2018Toto\u2019<\/p>\n
\u201cIt\u2019s not in the way that you hold me \/ It\u2019s not in the way you say you care \/ It\u2019s not in the way you\u2019ve been treatin\u2019 my friends \/ It\u2019s not in the way that you stayed \u2019til the end.\u201d<\/p>\n
How about some more yacht rock, this time with some arena rock flavor? \u201cHold The Line\u201d is among Toto\u2019s catchier releases from 1978, and it\u2019s a standout song from their self-titled debut album. This entry on our list of 1978 rock hits ended up being very successful. It peaked at No. 5 on the Hot 100 and No. 14 on the UK Singles chart. Not bad for a debut single, I\u2019d say.<\/p>\n
