- Yes, okay. I'm ready.
- I've actually been listening to '70s music
just because I want to be ready for this stuff.
- The '70s were interesting.
A lot of parents were born in-- I'm not saying my parents, mom.
- I've seen the entirety of That '70s Show
at least five times and they have lots of opinions on music,
so I think it's seeped into my subconscious.

Get your grandpa dance on, you know?
It's so good!

'70s songs are so catchy.
- It's crazy.
These are songs you hear and you know you hear,
but never stop to think who sings that.
- (FBE) You know this one?
- Yeah, I don't think I have a good guess for this.
- I literally have no idea.
- No. That's why I danced to it, because I knew I wasn't
gonna know this one at all.
- (FBE) This is called "Heart of Glass,"
and this is by Blondie. - Okay, I've heard of Blondie.
I've never heard the words "Heart of Glass" before.
- Oh, this Blondie [bleep], man! I should have known it.
Blondie makes the hits.
- I don't feel like people give her enough credit.
It was really hard to be a woman in the music scene in the '70s
and she was killing it.

- I want to say it's called "You're So Vain."
- It's "You're So vain," but I don't know the artist.
- "You're So Vain" by... I want to say the first name is Patty.
- (FBE) This is "You're So Vain" by Carly Simon.

in this song, but rumors include Warren Beatty, Cat Stevens,
and even Mick Jagger. - Oh, Mick Jagger!
Damn, that's tight.
- What an assortment of people that you could write a song about.
Such an interesting life.
- Ooh-hoo! I mean... (laughing)
Understandable, I guess.
- Oh, Mr. Mick Jagger. He was cute back in the day.
I could write a song about him.
Those pillow lips, like, he got it going on.

'70s hits!
I need to go on Spotify, hit '70s hits.
- (FBE) Do you know this one? - No, I don't know it.

- Is it "The Piano Man" by The Beatles?
- That's "Piano Man" by Elton John.
- It's "Piano Man," and it's by--
I really want to say Elton John.
- That's "Piano Man" by Billy Joel.
- (FBE) This is "Piano Man." It's Billy Joel.
- Billy Joel! Damn it!
- (groaning)
I was so confident that I had it.
- Oh my god! (groaning)
- Billy Joel wrote "Uptown Girl"
and that's the only song I care about when it comes to Billy Joel,
so that's probably why I didn't know it was him.

but I just realized I don't think I know what it says
or anything about it.
- (FBE) All right, last one. Do you know it?
- No, I do not.
- (groaning) No!
- It's "The Immigrant Song" by... uh, Black Sabbath?
- (FBE) This is called "The Immigrant Song"
and it's by Led Zeppelin. - I'm not good at this.
- Oh my gosh! I'm so upset.
- I was tossing it back and forth in my head.
I'm like it's Led Zeppelin or it's Black Sabbath.
- I love '70s music.
I feel like we should slowly start making our way back
to '70s music.
- I'm feeling really empty, like hollow,
because these songs are amazing and I just don't know any of them.
- If I had to sit down and fill out a Scantron
of "Do They Know '70s Music," I would never win,
but if we were at a karaoke night and they were like
"Do They Know '70s Music," I would kill it.
