Yeah yeah, I know. But I love Cher. I've never seen her in concert -- my wife and several friends have and I seethe with jealousy when they bring it up.

[Rebo]

I love Cher, but... I danced my ass off to all those KC songs!

(I think it grew back...)

same! I hate to vote againt "Get Down Tonight" but had to go with Cher.

[NAF1138]

Well I'm on record as having discovered I don't care for Cher's music as a result of this megapoll.

But

I really don't like KC or the Sunshine band. And Cher herself is cool as heck. Cool gets my vote.

[Borborygmi]

There is no way to vote correctly or incorrectly in this poll. Everyone is voting incorrectly, yet correctly, at the same time. This may seem confusing, but there are some things about the 1970s we are not meant to understand.

[Rebo]

Maybe it was the drugs...

It's way too early to be laughing this hard, you dorks.

[Dr. Winston O'Boogie]

I voted for Cher because 70s, but I can't forgive her for popularizing Autotune in the 90s.

[JackieLikesVariety]

what Weedy said!

[dba Fred]

While it was 1981 not the 1970s, pre-Autotuned Cher gets my vote for performing with Meat Loaf.
The songs would have sounded very different done by Sonny & Cher and the Sunshine Band
or Meat Loaf and the Sunshine Band
