Hello. :) I was born June 27th, 1977 in USA
I am at the end of the 70's but the decade I was born in definetly has a major influence on me.

Anybody else out there born in the years 1970-1979?


 
I was born august 21st,1972.
And this what came first to my mind:
The german tv-show "disco" and ABBA

Born on August 23rd, 1978. ;)
And heck yeah I remember Three's Company! I still watch them late nights on TVLand network. John Ritter was amazing. God rest his soul. I always had a crush on the short brunette (joyce dewitt) in 3's Company. She was so cute.

:wub: *blush*
Dancing Queen was a pretty popular tune back then.
I must admit, I only began to have conscious awareness at 4. I don't recall ages 1,2 or 3 . So my adventures began in 1982. But the 70s vibe was still in full effect then.
Remember Supernature by Cerrone?!? lol. :D I used to LOVE that song.

Though I was born in the late 70s, i consider myself an 80s child. Oh gosh... I even remember when my mom forced me to wear an all white outfit with a shirt under neath that resembled Don Johnson's character in Miami Vice. (she was a fan of him at that time and i had to suffer for it. thank god no photos were taken. lol) :doh: :ph34r:

June 3, 1978 :) I was born in the Soviet Union, so my childhood memories are quite different from most of yours' I think. lol. When I was a child I loved to read about Lenin. All my favourite children's books were about him. oh well.

I also remember watching figure skating, since I was very small. I'm still a fan by the way and right now I am watching the European championship :)

Sheesh after seeing the posts here I don't want to say what year in the 70s I was born in. Even though I was born in the 70s I consider myself an 80s child too as I liked the songs and entertainers in the 80s better.

Yah, I was born in '78! I don't remember anything though, as I was just a little baby, but remember the shadow that the 70s pop culture cast into the early '80s. Threes Company, All in the Family, laughing @ 70s styles/disco, finding amusement in the Osmands/Partridge Family/the'groovy' Brady Bunch, Taxi, Sweat hogs, the original SNL line-up, American Bandstand, Soul Train, WKRP in Cincinnati, etc etc etc. I dunno, as a kid a lot of that stuff was on repeat on TV, and back then there weren't personal computers/Internet, VCRS, cell-phones, etc, just TV's w/ basic cable (only like 20 channels, lol!) and my Atari. So I think we watched a lot more TV, some of which was repeated stuff from the 70s, at least until 1984 or so.

Overall I found the styles/language of the 70s funny. As for the influence, I'm sure on a subconscious level the images influenced, but nothing I can articulate.

Prolly my fave show from that decade that I watched as a kid: Three's Company
Favorite movie from that decade I liked best as a kid: Star Wars!
Favorite artist from the 70s I liked best as a kid: Michael of course lol! (yes I know he debuted in '68-69, but hey, he was pretty prominent in the 70s! I was a big fan of watching re-airings of the J-5 cartoon!). Oh yeah, and I liked Fat Albert a lot, lol.

You wrote about me almost, with the exception of that I liked books about animals better :cheeky:. I don't remember the 70s, though :D. It's a pity that we never heard of Michael in the 70s-80s. I believe ABBA were extremely popular at the time. They won Eurovision in 1974 (?).

Foreign music was very limited in Soviet TV, especially American. People could find something illegally, though :D I was about 13 when I heard of Michael for the first time in the beginning of 90s. It was "Billie Jean" video. I saw more clips later. Loved all of them :)

:huggy: Well it is great that you did get to find Billie Jean & Michael Jackson!! I wish there weren't 'boundries' when it came to being able to obtain music... that is made for the whole world,man.
