'74–'75

"'74–'75" is a song by American band the Connells from their fifth studio album, Ring (1993). The acoustic ballad was released by TVT Records as the album's third single in 1993, but it did not chart in the United States. It would later become a European hit for the band in 1995, reaching the top 10 in a total of 11 European countries and peaking at No. 1 in Norway and Sweden. It also charted within the top 30 of the UK Singles Chart on two occasions. Since the Connells never had another hit, they are widely seen as a one-hit wonder. The music video, directed by Mark Pellington, features students from Needham B. Broughton High School's Class of 1975 and compares the photographs from their yearbook, with how they look and have aged since then. NME ranked "'74–'75" number 50 in their list of "NME Writers' Top 50 Singles" in December 1995.
