Unvorgiven - Metallica (not unvorgiven II, thats just bad)

I love back in black, and of course..for those about to rock, we saluute u!

Would alice cooper be classed as classic rock? coz i adore poison and feed my frankenstein...

[smeagols_ghost]

Yeah, alice cooper is classic, my guide, if they where around when my dad was younger (and he bought records of them), the band is classic and or old.

Ok nice, i thought so..i love alice cooper, he rocks.

[smeagols_ghost]

Yeah, i've got "Fist Full of Alice" (i think thats what it's called) floating around in my car, nice relaxing driving music

nice list, but trade cheap wine, for khe sanh

and i think twisted sister should be in there somewhere...

[pumba_mcc]

i like most classic rock, personaly i think i was born in the wrong decade

I WANNA ROCK!!! - Twisted sister

[smeagols_ghost]

I was thinkinh khe sanh, but it's overdone, i think it's on the list that every pub cover band does when ever i go out, It's still classic drinking song thou

But it depends on the crowd, i've meet people who have not heard khe sanh before.

Thats a good point... like, our parents had nirvana and the pistols and acdc, and what do we have, the ****ing crazy frog

[pumba_mcc]

cheap wine is another good chisel song

Cats In The Cradle by Guns and Roses is a classic eventhough it is a cover song. (or atleast its one of my personal favourites)

i'd have to say my favourite classic bands would have to include:

Dire straits
CCR

and Queen

Id have to say David Bowie. and ill put in a classic rock top song to stay with the thread.
david bowie- ashes to ashes

are you sure its by the gunners?
I havent heard it... ever..
it's been discused here http://www.schoolies.org.au/forums/s...?t=1124&page=4 and i dunno.. i think a lot of people assume the ugly kid joe version is by guns n roses or something..
anyway, what does it sound like? how is it different to the original ?

Go to http://www.lyrics007.com/Guns%20N'%20Roses%20Lyrics/Cats%20In%20The%20Cradle%20&%20The%20Silver%20Spoo n%20Lyrics.html

http://www.sing365.com/music/lyric.nsf/Cats-In-The-Cradle-lyrics-Guns-N'-Roses/06032D4C48F95FE548256ED7000BA2F2

These sites say its by the Guns n Roses.
But im not really sure gnr do it

As for the song, i think that it kicks the originals be hind it gets me rockin................

[Sammy Wammy]

Yeah, I know, a lot of lyric sites say its by them, and even if you go to download stuff it says its by them, but if you download the ugly kid joe one its the same thing.. i dunno.. it doesnt really sound like guns and roses to me... *shrugs*

Have you got it on a cd by them to prove its them?

[Ben]

ok the thing here is, that theres definiatley an Ugly Kid Joe version, which is very popular. theres sites on the net that say Gunners covered the song but the internet also says that Flubber was a good movie. those sites mentioned are just lyric websites and not offical GnR sites. i dont think there is a Guns N Roses version coz its not on any of their albums, including The Spagetti Incident (their cover album). I think the problem here is people have downloaded Cats In The Cradle off the internet and people have just put the artist as GnR. Its the same thing when you type in Nivarna instead of Nirvana, teeny boppers are just getting **** wrong. i hope this made sense.

Ok, back on tizopic: Classic rock SONGS. SONGS. NOT JUST ARTISTS. SONGS.

[Luke]

KISS - Cold Gin
AC/DC - TNT
Led Zeppelin - Black Dog
Queen - Don't Stop Me Now
