Soft rock songs of the seventies are kind of like a cool drink on a hot summer day. Whether you grew up during this wonderful decade, or you were already grown, perhaps no other decade is as identifiable with it’s music as the seventies. Soft rock hits bring memories of some kind back to anyone that was around back then. For me, it brings back the hot summer days of my youth, and the beginning of my infatuation with girls. Because of the heartfelt emotion in the soft rock songs of the seventies, they take me back to my first crush, my first kiss, and even my first heartbreak.
