I may be removed or suspended once again but I like Abba too.

But my favorite song, with respect to genre, from the 60s -not sure if it is Bubblegum or not is "You Babe" by the Turtles!!!

Dylan: If Not For You
Dylan: Under The Red Sky

both songs are obviously amongst his weakest songs (don't mention the lyrics), but I somehow like them (live versions rather than the studio versions)

I agree with you, concerning Under The Red Sky. Very nice one.

"You Baby" by The Turtles is a perfect record.

I wouldn't call it Bubblegum. It's like a well-crafted Beach Boys single. You could call it "pop" or maybe even the more recent term "sunshine pop," but the snap of the drums and the harmonies are excellent. And the SOUND of that guitar opening...my god, it just encapsulates the era perfectly. When I hear it, I'm sent back in time...

But ironically, it's also a timeless record.

The above TV appearance demonstrates how well the film That Thing You Do re-created the mid-60's Top 40 world.

This song - I can listen to 20 times in a row. It is that good- It's the happiest song on earth

Kind of off the beaten path, but:

Where Were You When I Needed You by The Grassroots.

A close tie for second place:

Baby Blue and Day After Day by Badfinger

At least for today, those are my favorites.

Those 2 Badfinger songs are great. The guitar work in Baby Blue is awesome.

"No Anchovies, Please"

Speaking of Badfinger...

A great track off the Straight Up album:

I prefer the live version. And Living Colour have put a great cover version of the song on their 2009 album "The Chair in the Doorway".

All the stones songs with Sax. I hate that instrument and the sound of it. But I like it in the stones tunes and not sure what the difference is. But. That’s my unlikely like.

For some reason...

Rock Me Amadeus. The long version.

I think.

I dunno.

Gotta Get a Grip ,Matt Clifford mix and Blinded by Rainbows

norman Greenbaum: spirit in the sky

several Tommy James and the Shondells songs that I absolutely detested back when they were contemporary. Now they rate right up there for me.

I freakin' LOVED Paul McCartney's "Spies Like Us" back in the day. Adored it. A song written for a forgettable '80's comedy movie completely rocked my face off. I listened to that a hundred times if I listened to it once. I simply could not get enough of that heavy sound.

Abba - Waterloo
Jackson Five - Never Can Say Goodbye
Paul McCartney - My Love, and Let 'Em In
Roberta Flack - Feel Like Makin' Love
The Righteous Brothers - Rock and Roll Heaven

Damn great song!

Herman´s Hermits - No milk today.

Gary Numan's Cars. Hilariously awesome song, borderline genius.
