This is one in a series of posts counting down the top 100 songs of the 70's. I will post one of these every night with the exception of Thursday, Fridays or if there is breaking Dolphins news until we reach number one. This is more or less a way for us to pass time on the site during the slow time of year. Besides the 70's were the greatest decade in music.

Now these are not songs from my list but an independent list (http://www.digitaldreamdoor.com/pages/best_songs70s.html) who's rankings are based on initial and lasting popularity and acclaim from critics and fellow artist. Some of them I do not and you will not agree with and maybe that's the point of such lists. They create conversation's. Just like the list of all time great Dolphin players the number one selection is not going to surprise anyone but there will be, like with that other list, some surprises for some along the way and some others might just lead you to a new artist that you have long overlooked.

The next song on the countdown, number 55 is "You Are The Sunshine Of My Life" by Stevie Wonder.

The next song on the countdown, number 54 is "It's Too Late" by Carole King.

The next song on the countdown, number 53 is "Walk On The Wild Side" by Lou Reed.

The next song on the countdown, number 52 is "Heart Of Gold" by the incredible genius that is Neil Young.
