82. Paul Simon “Kodachrome” (from There Goes Rhymin’ Simon)

This tune was less about the Kodak technology of the early 70s as much about faded memories and the loss of time, which seemed to be a main theme among singer-songwriters of the time period. Paul, as always, is a master craftsman.

I recognize Joni's brilliance and influence. A lot of her stuff leaves me cold, though. And her singing is often too loopy for me.84. Joni Mitchell “Raised on Robbery” (released as a single)
Joni Mitchell - Raised on Robbery
Shadows and Light DVDJoni Mitchell, Pat Metheny, Jaco Pastorius, Michael Brecker, Lyle Mays, Don Aliasyoutu.be
So this fine tune was released in November of 1973 in advance of her 1974 brilliant album Court and Spark. The live video is from several years later, but it’s worth watching because the great Jaco Pastorius is on bass. Jaco wasn’t part of the original recording but toured with Joni when she began a jazz exploration on several albums. Interestingly enough, the original version features Robbie Robertson of The Band on lead guitar.

Do you guys remember a show back in the early 70s called Wonderama? It aired in my area on Sunday mornings and was aimed at pre-teens. I think the host's name was Bob McCallister (GM sp).83. Elton John “Crocodile Rock” (from Don’t Shoot Me, I’m Only the Piano Player)
Elton John - Crocodile Rock
Sorry that i forgot the intro, i promise to have it on my newest videos. Elton John - Crocodile Rock. One of the best songs i've ever heard Comment, Rate and...youtu.be
So this was Elton John’s other album of 1973 which preceded GBYBR. The song is a throwback to 50s style doowop, which always caused me to consider it somewhat as one of his lesser efforts. But it’s grown on me over the years.
Anyway, it was sort of like American Bandstand for younger kids with a bunch of goofy stuff in between songs. I remember that, when a kid won whatever contest was going on, they'd get like a giant bottle of fake ketchup.
I had pretty much aged out when this record came out, but I remember seeing it played on that show.
None of this has anything to do with the record itself, which is a fantastic song. I don't care how much of a knockoff it is - it's all hormonal energy.

81. Jackson Browne “For Everyman” (from For Everyman)
youtu.be
Jackson Browne’s second album was much more polished, much less raw than his debut. Perhaps for that reason, I don’t like it nearly as much. In particular I think he ruins two of his greatest ever compositions, “Take It Easy” and “These Days”, with overproduction.
On the other hand, the title song is really great, an introspective Browne classic.

80. Pink Floyd “Us and Them” (from The Dark Side of the Moon)

One of the hardest tasks for me was to separate the songs from this album and consider them individually, because I’ve always regarded them as part of a whole. (I’ve also, nearly my entire life , enjoyed this music a lot more when I’m in an, um, special kind of mood…)
I was surprised to learn that the music for this was written by Richard Wright; I thought the entire album was basically Roger Waters.

The issue with including "Us and Them" is that it's unnatural to cut it off there and not have it roll into Any Colour You Like/Brain Damage/Eclipse, but for our purposes here, you gotta do what you gotta do.

I've gone back and forth as to whether the sync was intentional. Both the band and engineer Alan Parsons have vehemently denied any connection of the album and Wizard, and there certainly some things that are stretches. But there are too many things that line up well to think that there wasn't at least a bit of intent. Not unlike a few years earlier with Echoes and 2001: A Space Odyssey.The sync up of “Us And Them” as part of Dark Side of the Rainbow is pretty cool.

Conventional wisdom has it that the last great Stones album was from the year before, Exile on Main Street. And after that final masterpiece, the band has settled for mediocrity ever since with a few really great songs thrown in now and then and an album or two that was good but not great. I kind of agree with this. But “100 Years Ago” is one of those great songs.

Following the success of All the Young Dudes the band released an even better album filled with glam goodness, of which A few highlights are musts for this list, this one is a classic with Ian Hunter and Mick Ralphs at the top of their games.
Since you asked, I wouldn't include it in the 1000 greatest songs of 1973. Speaking only for myself, I am rather unimpressed with this music list so far. Admittedly it wasn't that great a year and maybe you will salvage this with the 85 picks remaining, but after this start I have my doubts.
I will refrain from using emojis with future selections.
I really liked All The Young Dudes, All The Way To Memphis and even bought Roll Away The Stone on 45, so I appreciated Mott, it is just I didn't care for that particular song.
And as far as glam is concerned, I was a big T-Rex, Marc Bolan fan and recently saw a 1973 video from German TV where he is wearing a white feather boa (and you can't get much more glam than that).

The science center here in STL used to have laser shows to classic rock bands/albums back in the 90s, and a bunch of us went to the Dark Side of the Moon a few times. An amazing experience. And each and every single time, I dozed off during Us and Them. The song is so relaxing and awesome, and combined with the lasers and the kicked back "vibe" 
, it was easy to doze.
Anyway, Us and Them is easily a top 5 Floyd song for me, and probably my 2nd favorite from the record (behind only Time).

And of course there was “Bridge Over Troubled Water”. But with his second solo album, Simon brought in the Dixie Hummingbirds for this great collaboration. He also got gospel legend Clyde McPhatter to sing the bridge to “Take Me to the Mardi Gras”, which is a song I absolutely love but could not find room for on this list.

I find it hard to believe there are 100 better songs than this one in 1973, but this isn't my list.71. Paul Simon “Loves Me Like a Rock” (from There Goes Rhymin’ Simon)
Paul Simon’s fascination with gospel music goes all the way back to “He Brought Joy to the World” from Wednesday Morning. 3AM, his first album with Art Garfunkel. And of course there was “Bridge Over Troubled Water”. But with his second solo album, Simon brought in the Dixie Hummingbirds for this great collaboration. He also got gospel legend Clyde McPhatter to sing the bridge to “Take Me to the Mardi Gras”, which is a song I absolutely love but could not find room for on this list.

I thought Kodachrome was too low.
