That's a Good Point
Favorite Songs of 1975
In this episode of That’s a Good Point, Marnie joins Dion, Irv, and Jon to rank their top songs of 1975. Why 1975? That’s the year Dion was born. Check out last season’s double episode where the group ranked the top songs of 1991 in honor of Zachary Irving’s year of birth. We have to assume that both Jon and Marnie will have their birth year songs rated. Then what? Well, why not a battle royale showdown between all the top songs?! That gives us all something exciting to look forward to. Follow us on Twitter and Instagram...
