The Stooges with "1969," from the year--wait for it!--1969.

Oh god. Sounds like a nightmare to me! (I'm not a pet person. Although, I wouldn't mind having a few fish, I suppose ). I had a fish last Friday but that's probably not what you mean. "And darling I will be loving you 'til we're 70 / And baby my heart could still fall as hard at 23"

A little Mott The Hoople - “The Saturday Kids” for 73. A lot of numbers actually.

"I was the one who let you know I was your sorry ever after Seventy-four, seventy-five" At this rate, we should reach the end quite soon.

I love this musical. No brainer for 76.

That song would have been my choice too, but in the version by The King Brothers. I recall it was my choice at Capitol first time round. And, it's worth remembering for when we reach 110 (cornets close at hand).

Don Ralke's "77 Sunset Strip" was the theme tune from the US series of that name:
Before I forget, one rule Moomrick and I used to have was that at difficult moments, say at two hundred and eighteen, you could interpret it as as three individual numbers (two-one-eight) if it helps. Same holds for telephone numbers., i.e. Wilson Pickett's "634-5789".

I mean, obviously, "81 Poop Hatch." (Perhaps a classier choice would be Joanna Newsom's "'81."

And the Shins' "Fall of '82" works for our next one. A nice little song whose verse reminds me of something I can't quite place.
