Hi All,
I just stumbled across this great CNN story on 1974. According to the article, we had some of the worst songs of ALL TIME that year. The year wasn't all bad in that there some pretty good movies... and quite a few very nice people graduated from high school that year!
You can find the article here:

Here are the first few lines:
(CNN) -- We had joy. We had fun. We had loathing.
In 2006, this website conducted a highly unscientific survey to find the worst song of all time. One year stood out in its bad-song production: 1974.
That included two of the top five -- Terry Jacks' "Seasons in the Sun" and the runaway top choice, Paul Anka's "Having My Baby" -- and several more leading vote-getters, including Paper Lace's "The Night Chicago Died," Maria Muldaur's "Midnight at the Oasis" and Bo Donaldson and the Heywoods' "Billy, Don't Be a Hero."
