This is a series of posts that will talk about some of my favorite songs by 10cc. See if you agree with any of these!
“Rubber Bullets” is a 1973 single by the English art-rock/pop quartet 10cc, written and produced by members Lol Creme, Kevin Godley, and Graham Gouldman and issued from their self-titled debut album; it exists in multiple versions — the album cut runs over five minutes while shorter single and U.S. radio edits trim that down — and the track’s quirky instrumentation
This “Stand Out Single” was number 1 on the U.S. Billboards Adult Contemporary and Hot 100 Charts, also in Australia, Canada, and New Zealand.
Released in late 1971, “American Pie” is one of the most iconic songs in American music history, written and performed by Don McLean. The single was issued as two parts: “American Pie (Part 1)” as the A-side and “American Pie (Part 2)” as the B-side, both extracted from his second studio album American Pie (United Artists, 1971).
