A bunch of good ones in this set! Also, random side note, I spent the weekend with some relatives who played some music while we were sitting outside, and it was fun to hear a few songs from this poll series that I wouldn't have otherwise known   (My vote this week, "Taking Care of Business," being one of those songs)

1. Taking Care of Business
2. Summer Nights
3. We've Only Just Begun
4. I Love the Nightlife
5. Get Down Tonight
