I HAPPEN TO LIKE 1978 A LOT: The Onion's AV Club brings you a list of songs about particular years. Among the songs listed I like #5, #7, #10, #15, #18, #20, and #24. In the right mood I even like #8, but please don't tell anyone.

I could think of only five other examples and they are generally mighty obscure:
  • 1849 by Lighthouse (best known for "Pretty Lady", a pop hit from the early 1970's)
  • 1900 Yesterday by Liz Damon's Orient Express (this hit #33 in 1971)

  • The Last Day of June 1934 by Al Stewart (best known for "Year of the Cat")

  • The Summer of ’42 by Peter Nero

  • Energy Crisis 1974 by Dickie Goodman
