Day 19: A song from the 70s
I'll go with Germany's answer to Boney M. This feels very 70's-ish to me.
1979 - "Moskau" - Dschinghis Khan
I both don't know and do know why this song wasn't popular here πŸ˜” It's so good! Germans were very good at camp disco 😍

Day 19: A song from the 70s

I don’t know how @lavendersilk managed to pick the wrong Earth Wind and Fire song, but I’ll correct it.

There's a wrong Earth Wind and Fire song??? πŸ€”
 
Only this particular week of the year 🀣
I stand corrected!

Day 20: A song from the β€˜80s

Ah, the 1980s. That era of bad hair, worse fashion and an explosion of musical genres. 😁
To the eternal horror of my parents, the first album I ever bought as a teenager was Run DMC’s Tougher than Leather. Which I then proceeded to play at full volume on the turntable in the family living room.
To the eternal embarrassment of my children, I still play it in the car occasionally and rap along with the guys at the top of my voice.
Run DMC were in so many ways the godfathers of modern hip hop and R&B. While their early work was crude and simplistic by today’s standards, they’d really started to hit their straps with Raising Hell. And then Tougher than Leather which, in my opinion, they absolutely nailed.

Run’s House - Run DMC
 
Day 19: A song from the 70s

@vagrantx came up with her own theme, so I decided to try the same. Hers is better. I don't know if this will work, because I am not researching it before hand, but all of these will lead back to the Canadian group The Band. Let's see how this goes.

This is Joni Mitchell singing with The Band on their landmark concert film The Last Waltz. The coyote in question was Sam Sheppard. This has been described as "either the most flirtatious song about fucking or the most graphic song about flirting ever written."

"The Coyote (live)," Joni Mitchell and The Band (1978)
