Mine would have to be a slow song done by metallica. "Nothing else Matters"

Unchained Melody ... several different artists including Elvis

I learned to play that a while ago. Thanks for reminding me to work on it again!


Greatest rock song in existence...hmm...well there's so many great ones that don't exist, so I"ll have to eliminate them...shit, I don't know...Frankenstein by the Edgar Winter Group? Electric Funeral by Black Sabbath? Dante's Inferno by Iced Earth?

Geezzzzzzz Belial...you've got some memory!

I'm going with Aerosmith's "Walk This Way" and "Dream On" (one can't go without the other). But then there's AC/DC's Thunderstruck (it's got all the elements). What about Pink Floyd's "The Wall"? And Green Day's been no slouch with "American Idiot" (but that could be construed as something else).

Oh wait...could it be Procol Harem's "Lighter Shade of Pale"?

No no, here ya go...it's gotta be The Animals "House of the Rising Sun", right?

What's my grade? This is a test...isn't it? Do I go to the head of the class?

Belial 02-25-2005 06:23 AM

Pour Some Sugar On Me, Love Bites (hell, the whole Hysteria album) by Def Leppard, Sabbath Bloody Sabbath and Ironman by Black Sabbath, Highway Star by Deep Purple, Welcome To The Jungle by GnR, Cemetary Gates by Pantera...

Superfreak 02-25-2005 10:15 AM

I vote for the entire "Frampton Comes Alive" Album. Anyone with me on that?

Lixy---There's still hope for you!I heard,recently(on the news)that Steven
Tyler(Aerosmith) & his wife had separated!You could be #3(?) :line: Irish

Always liked Zep's Houses of the Holy or 4th album. Of course Bob Segar's stuff was always tops at my house too. I've worn out 3 copies of Bonnie Raitte's "The Glow" ... that's another all timer. How's that for variety? LOL

WildIrish 02-25-2005 02:16 PM

Metallica's "Frayed Ends Of Sanity"


And "Get Down With The Sickness" is a keeper too.

OMG...Tool's 46 & 2! Love that song.

RaTheSunGod 02-25-2005 02:43 PM

Head of the class
 
Someone's been naughty, they don't get to go to the end of the class, but they get to stay after. :x:

By the way, Eruption is hard as shit to play, I wish you luck on that.

:x: I know...I know Irish! Hey...he's in my crosshairs! *giggle*

BTW everyone...rock isn't just Heavy Metal...but Heavy Metal is always rock at heart!

Just had that thought in my head all day...lol!

Oh...and one more thing...is it "Lighter Shade of Pale" or Whiter Shade of Pale"? Been thinkin bout that all day too! I've almost convinced myself it's "Whiter"...but then I've been known to be wrong...(once)!

And Ra? Was it me who's been naughty (kicking a stone...standing alone in a sun dress that you can see right through because the sun is behind me and shining at my back)? If so, why (biting on the tip of my right index finger as I tilt my head like the RCA dog...flipping hair off left shoulder)?

*giggle*

I asked everyone at work who might be a rocker to gimme some input. You should have heard some of the suggestive suggestions I got with that request...but I digress! Um...so these are some of the answers I got...

Free Bird
Sympathy for the Devil
Stairway to Heaven
The Immigrant Song
Born To Be Wild
She Bop (believe it or not...someone threw in Cyndi Lauper...lmao!)
Paradise By The Dashboard Lights
Your Move (YES)
Major Tom
Ironman (or is it Iron Man??...good gawd I should know that...drugs'll do it everytime...lol)
When Doves Cry (I said...awwwwww when it was suggested...but didn't agree it's an "in all existance" candidate.
Wooden Ships

There was more...but I forget them all!

*bends over for the teacher's paddle*

I AM NOT CHEATING! You didn't say I couldn't copy off of anyone else's paper. Matter of fact...you didn't give ANY rules!

*makes a mad dash for the revolving door*

Sign me up for anything classic Pink Floyd. I **really** like Dark Side of the Moon.
