Here's my list of my favorite 70's song:

get up (i feel like being a) sex machine - james brown
superfly - curtis mayfield
let's stay together - al green
comfortably numb - pink floyd
magine - john lennon

 

[Sarah G]

We skipped the light fandango
Turned cartwheels 'cross the floor
I was feeling kinda seasick
But the crowd called out for more
The room was humming harder
As the ceiling flew away
When we called out for another drink
The waiter brought a tray

And so it was that later
As the miller told his tale
That her face, at first just ghostly,
Turned a whiter shade of pale

She said, 'There is no reason
And the truth is plain to see.'
But I wandered through my playing cards
And would not let her be
One of sixteen vestal virgins
Who were leaving for the coast
And although my eyes were open
They might have just as well've been closed

And so it was that later
As the miller told his tale
That her face, at first just ghostly,
Turned a whiter shade of pale

And so it was that later...

I started liking this song when I saw a House epi where Wilson bought an organ and House sits down and starts playing this. I looked up the words and became a Procol Harum fan.
