Take me back to July 10th, 1975!

Let's take a stroll down memory lane!

The date is July 10th, 1975, and it's a Thursday. Anyone born today will have the star sign Cancer. It's summer, so the temperatures are warmer and the evenings are longer than usual.

In America, the song Love Will Keep Us Together by Captain & Tennille is on top of the singles charts. Over in the UK, Tears On My Pillow by Johnny Nash is the number one hit song. Gerald Ford is currently the President of the United States, and the movie Jaws is at the top of the Box Office.

In the United Kingdom, Harold Wilson is the current Prime Minister. In fashion, the hippie look from the 1960s and early 1970s has disappeared. The disco look is beginning to take off. Women are wearing t-shirts, khaki pants, mood rings, kimonos and flare jumpsuits. Meanwhile, men are wearing velvet sports coats, slogan t-shirts, flannel, frilly shirts, jeans and khaki chinos. Because it's 1975, the music charts are being dominated by the likes of Billy Swan, 10cc, Alain Barriere, Morris Albert, the Salsoul Orchestra, Captain & Tennille, Elton John and David Bowie.

If you were to travel back to this day, notable figures such as Eamon de Valera, Sal Mineo, Anissa Jones and Rosalind Russell would all be still alive. On TV, people are watching popular shows such as "Hee Haw", "Soul Train", "Kojak" and "Happy Days". Meanwhile, gamers are playing titles such as "Pong", "Space Race", "Gotcha" and "Tank".

Children and teenagers are currently watching television shows such as "The Pink Panther Show", "All in the Family", "The Electric Company" and "Happy Days". If you're a kid or a teenager, then you're probably playing with toys such as Lite-Brite, Uno (card game), Kenner SSP Racers and Shrinky Dinks.
