The 1970s remain one of the best eras in rock music. Included in the decade are these three iconic rock songs from 1972, songs that are so good, it\u2019s likely that every 70s kid can still sing them word for word today.<\/p>\n
\u201cWitchy Woman\u201d by The Eagles<\/p>\n
Of course, any music fan knows \u201cTake It Easy<\/a>\u201d, the debut single by the Eagles. But that song was followed up by \u201cWitchy Woman\u201d, another classic.\u00a0<\/p>\n On their freshman Eagles album, \u201cWitchy Woman\u201d is written by band members Don Henley and Bernie Leadon. The song begins with, \u201cRaven hair and ruby lips \/ Sparks fly from her fingertips \/ Echoed voices in the night \/ She\u2019s a restless spirit on an endless flight \/ Woo hoo witchy woman, \/ See how high she flies \/ Woo hoo witchy woman. She got the moon in her eye.\u201d<\/p>\n Leadon is formerly of the group The Flying Burrito, which is when he began<\/a> the song. He and Henley finished it after he became part of the Eagles. <\/p>\n \u201cI Saw The Light\u201d by Todd Rundgren<\/p>\n Todd Rundgren includes \u201cI Saw The Light<\/a>\u201d on Something\/Anything?,\u00a0 his third studio album.\u00a0 The song says, \u201cThen you gazed up at me \/ And the answer was plain to see \/ \u2018Cause I saw the light \/ In your eyes, in your eyes.\u201d<\/p>\n One of Rundgren\u2019s biggest hits, he later admitted he didn\u2019t really like \u201cI Saw The Light\u201d.\u00a0<\/p>\n \u201cI wrote this song in 15 minutes from start to finish,\u201d Rundgren reveals<\/a>. \u201cIt was one of the reasons that caused me to change my style of writing. It doesn\u2019t matter how clever a song is \u2013 if it\u2019s written in 15 minutes, it is such a string of clich\u00e9s that it just doesn\u2019t have lasting impact for me. And for me, the greatest disappointment in the world is not being able to listen to my own music and enjoy it.\u201d <\/p>\n \u201cDoctor, My Eyes\u201d by Jackson Browne<\/p>\n
