Howard the Duck · 03-23-2012, 03:51 AM

if you're all just gonna talk about Queen, i'd say my fave is "Love of My Life"

it moves me to tears

LOVE OF MY LIFE - has one of the best intro..

Hell yeah! Awesome guitar playing on this one and the video is cool and also it is about MTV and was made when MTV was in fact still good!

5150 is easily Van Halens best album!

Eternal Flame and Walk Like an Egyptian are the two songs that stand out from the 80s, both by the Bangles.

What about this?

I would say at least 3:
Yes - Owner of a lonely heart (a true classic)
U2 - Pride
the Police - Every breath you take.
But there many many more ....

IMO classic rock kinda died in the '80s, but If I had to pick 5 good 'classics' from this decade I would go with...

Journey - Don't Stop Believin
U2 - New Years Day
Yes - Owner of a Lonely Heart
The Stone Roses - I Am the Resurrection
Talking Heads - Once In a Lifetime

The first one's a bit overplayed, but you really can't go wrong with any of these. The comment above me mentions the Yes song. Great stuff.

I had no idea the Heart version wasn't an original. The latter was banned from MTV for somehow being too political, and since I'd never seen the original there, I wonder....

Didn't know Heart did a version. What album is that from?
