Good half-funny song from the '70s:

[WritingIsMyReligion]

I normally don't really like '70s pop-ish stuff, but I love 10cc. Plus the singer's sunglasses are FUCKING SWEET in this video!

"I'm Not in Love"--10cc

I'm not in love, so don't forget it
It's just a silly phase I'm going through
And just because I call you up
Don't get me wrong, don't think you've got it made
I'm not in love, no-no
(It's because...)

I like to see you, but then again
That doesn't mean you mean that much to me
So if I call you, don't make a fuss
Don't tell your friends about the two of us
I'm not in love, no-no
(It's because...)

(Be quiet, big boys don't cry)
(Big boys don't cry)
(Big boys don't cry)
(Big boys don't cry)
(Big boys don't cry)
(Big boys don't cry)
(Big boys don't cry)

I keep your picture upon the wall
It hides a nasty stain that's lyin' there
So don't you ask me to give it back
I know you know it doesn't mean that much to me
I'm not in love, no-no
(It's because...)

Ooh, you'll wait a long time for me
Ooh, you'll wait a long time

Ooh, you'll wait a long time for me
Ooh, you'll wait a long time

I'm not in love, so don't forget it
It's just a silly phase I'm going through
And just because I call you up
Don't get me wrong, don't think you've got it made, ooh

I'm not in love, I'm not in love...

1. That song's one of the best pop songs of the 70s.

I listened to it over and over again in '75-'76 and never got sick of it to this day. I have two copies on different compilations at home. Godley and Creme are great writers.

2. Oh, geez, I HATED that song

In fact most 70s music makes me shudder. But I'm in the minority with most of the people I know regarding that -- I have two friends who just LOVE 70s music. All of it.
