1978年 ビルボード年間チャート Billboard Year End 1978 Hot100 Boston - Don't Look Back

あけましておめでとうございます。
このブログも4年目になりました。今年もよろしくお願いします。

今年最初のヒットチャートは1978年の年間シングルチャートの紹介です。
この年は1位のAndy Gibbの"Shadow Dancing"をはじめとするビージーズ兄弟の年、そして同時に2位のBee Gees"Night Fever"をはじめとするサタデイナイトフィーバーの年でした。
年間Top10の中でビージーズ兄弟で5曲、奇跡の年ですね。

年間100位以内の曲はほとんど紹介済みですが、私の好きな曲で紹介漏れがないかなぁと探したら、ありました。
年間93位、Bostonの"Don't Look Back"、最高位は10月7日と14日の4位、年度またぎになってしまい年間順位はあまり上がりませんでしたが、1位を記録した彼ら2枚目のアルバム「ドント・ルック・バック(Don't Look Back)」からのファーストシングルカット。
ポップで幻想的なロックンロール、すばらしい曲です。
