The Essential Rock n' Roll List

[Hostile]

Great song and it's one of my favs also. Skynryd rules

This must be why you like the song. You can identify with him

I'd clap my hands,
Stomp my feet
Tryin' to keep in time

Yep, I feel like it's about me.

 

[Hostile]

Another forgotten band who I really enjoy is

RUSH

One of the best concerts I've ever been to.

 

[Yeagermeister]

Yep, I feel like it's about me.

Except that song is about a ten yr old kid not an old fart like you

 

[jem88]

Isn't that a Olivia Newton John song?

It may well be, but the Rush version is a moving, sci-fi epic. You have to love any band that employs wind-chimes and gongs without any irony.

 

[Hostile]

One of the best concerts I've ever been to.

I couldn't do it at 10 either.

Christian Rock

there's an oxy moron!!!!

If you go by what Christian stores call rock, then yes it is an oxymoron. If you know someone (like my wife) who actually knows what bands to look for, there's no question it's Rock.
