[8Ball2/JanG5]

I love Zep. I love the Beatles. Also, Velvet Underground is great, and Rush is technically brilliant AND has great lyrics.

 

[Kmack]

Hail to the ****ing kings, baby.

 

[U.S War Machine]

okay, can you make it to...30 songs?

Did you or did you not get the concept here

 

[Calendar Man]

"Forplay/Long Time" and "Don't Look Back" = The Rock.

 

[Calendar Man]

I love Zep. I love the Beatles. Also, Velvet Underground is great, and Rush is technically brilliant AND has great lyrics.

Yeah VU is one of my top 5 bands but I didn't put them on this because classic rock radio almost never plays them. Bastards.

 

[Wilhelm-Scream]

Did you or did you not get the concept here

Sorry, I just read "I can go on forever, baby." and thought you meant, as far as...their...music, their songs.
What did I miss?
You meant that you could go on forever about that one tiny handful of okay songs, or...what?

 

[U.S War Machine]

Well I was just listing some of the main songs that were popular. But they had other great ones too just alittle phrase I guess

Every song on the first album is good.

 

[Wilhelm-Scream]

mmmmm....yeah, anyway....Beatles, Led Zeppelin.
All others......good effort.

 

[Franklin Richards]

Had to go with Zep.

 

[8Ball2/JanG5]

Hey...Rush has awesome lyrics and songs.

 

[Wilhelm-Scream]

Hey...Rush has awesome lyrics and songs.

They have 2 good songs and the most hilariously pretentious lyrics of all time.

It's actually a joke with my friends and I, we'll hear someone on TV say something as silly as "I CHOOSE FREE-WILL!" or "Shatter the illusion of integri-TEE!" and say, "Whoah! is that Neil Peart?!?"
Hahahahaha

 

[Tsunulia]

I've heard that blasted Tom Saywer song way too many times and I have come to hate it now.

2 good songs? A little harsh? Do you need insanely awesome prog rock or can you get down to, like, Lou Reed solo? Warren Zevon?

 

[ScottyBBadd]

Hey...Rush has awesome lyrics and songs.

Oh definately. Especially Subdivisions or most anything on Moving Pictures.

 

[Cyclops]

Wow, The Beatles and Led Zeppelin are in the top two spots... what a shock...

This surprises me how?

 

[Cyclops]

You understand sarcasm since when?

 

[ScottyBBadd]

I was joining you in your sarcasm.

 

[Wilhelm-Scream]

erm, I like both those guys based mainly on what I've read about them.
I like Werewolves of London, but I have a feeling that it's his "Stairway to Heaven".

But I really liked how he dealt with his death by cancer!

Lou Reed?...you can't live with him, you can't live without him.

 

[Green Lantern]

Meh, Clapton=God but I always found him to be better with the guys from Cream.

I prefer Dominoes era "Derek"

So am I.

You gotta love Hey You and Goodbye Blue Sky.

Comfortably Numb and Wish You Were Here (my lady's fave)
