"Shadow Dancing" was the Andy Gibb song I was referring to when I said I didn't like his music. No way that should have been that high. I'm not surprised at #1 because, like it or not - and I don't know anyone who does, it was a monster hit. But so was "American Pie," which certainly should have been #2.

It's hard to believe "You Light Up My Life" was #1 for so many weeks. Somebody must have liked it.
My guess of "American Pie" ended up at number 3. I totally forgot about YLUML which is a song you NEVER hear on oldies radio.
Here's my compilation from Billboard:

Thanks, Don. I've added the link to the post above to make it easier to find.
Thanks, Bill.
Nice typo on Don's list: Disco Lary instead of Disco Lady.
It was a stupid song anyway.

Any decade with a Debbie Boone song at the top is a decade I want to forget.
Jeff, It is little known that after Frank Lary retired from Major League Baseball, he opened a disco club in Detroit, Disco Lary's House of Dance.
Man, Frank Lary was a thorn in the Yankees' side throughout my childhood.
