I'm again taking the same tack as I did for 1971.  So what were my top 10 1972 songs back during 1972 - when I was twelve?  These:

18. Mother And Child Reunion\Paul Simon
17. Conquistador\Procol Harum
16. I'll Be Around\Spinners
15. Dancing In The Moonlight\King Harvest
14. Superstition\Stevie Wonder
13. Living In The Past\Jethro Tull
12. Do It Again\Steely Dan
11. Betcha By Golly, Wow\Stylistics
10. Go All The Way\Raspberries
9. Day Dreaming\Aretha Franklin
8. Tight Rope\Leon Russell
7. Everybody Plays The Fool\Main Ingredient
6. Lean On Me\Bill Withers
5. Listen To The Music\Doobie Brothers
4. A Horse With No Name\America
3. Look What You Done For Me\Al Green
2. You Wear It Well\Rod Stewart
1. Dialogue (pts. 1 & 2)\Chicago

It was hard to even narrow it down to 18 songs...  ::)
