Time for a little Mood Music. Here’s Argent performing “Hold Your Head Up” in 1972 on European TV. It’s a must-watch. Not only for the excellent song, but for the ridiculous, swirling dancers rotating around the bemused band. It’s so 70s you’ll grow an afro and sprout leather fringe from your arms while watching.

“Hold Your Head Up” was written by Rod Argent and Chris White and hit a chart high of #5 in both the US and UK.
