I can't give a top 10, but no list is complete without Springsteen's Born to Run. It's top 5 without a doubt.
-
I also already gave my top 10, and somehow I left out
Cheap Trick - The Flame. One of the greatest tear jerkers of all time.
-
You can not leave out Bob Dylan or Bruce Springsteen when talking about best lyrics ever. I'll post Dylan a little later.
I was going to use Thunder Road, but instead I'll go with
Bruce Springsteen - Born to Run
In the day we sweat it out in the streets of a runaway American dream
At night we ride through mansions of glory in suicide machines
Sprung from cages out on highway 9,
Chrome wheeled, fuel injected
and steppin' out over the line
Baby this town rips the bones from your back
It's a death trap, it's a suicide rap
We gotta get out while we're young
'Cause tramps like us, baby we were born to run
Wendy let me in I wanna be your friend
I want to guard your dreams and visions
Just wrap your legs 'round these velvet rims
and strap your hands across my engines
Together we could break this trap
We'll run till we drop, baby we'll never go back
Will you walk with me out on the wire
'Cause baby I'm just a scared and lonely rider
But I gotta find out how it feels
I want to know if love is wild
girl I want to know if love is real
Beyond the Palace hemi-powered drones scream down the boulevard
The girls comb their hair in rearview mirrors
And the boys try to look so hard
The amusement park rises bold and stark
Kids are huddled on the beach in a mist
I wanna die with you Wendy on the streets tonight
In an everlasting kiss
The highway's jammed with broken heroes on a last chance power drive
Everybody's out on the run tonight
but there's no place left to hide
Together Wendy we'll live with the sadness
I'll love you with all the madness in my soul
Someday girl I don't know when
we're gonna get to that place
Where we really want to go
and we'll walk in the sun
But till then tramps like us
baby we were born to run

Can someone help me find songs that sound like Blue Oyster Cult's "Dancin' in the Ruins"? What about Peter Gabriel's Red Rain?
-
Cool, thank you.
It's kinda hard for me to tell you what I'm looking for because I can't really explain what I like. Maybe soon I'll post some specific info about my tastes and see if anyone has any ideas. The only way I currently find songs I like is by going through ITunes and listening to the clips of all my favorite bands.
-
-
Does anyone know of a site that helps you find music you would probably enjoy? I've always wanted a website that would either quiz you or find songs similar to the ones you list. For example, if I typed in say Rush - Subdivisions, it would show me similar songs.
So has this been designed yet or do I have a million dollar idea?
-
I don't think any of these were posted:
.38 Special - Caught Up In You
Bryan Adams - Heaven (not really rock, but eh)
Eddie Money - Two Tickets to Paradise
John Mellencamp - Hurts So Good
Scorpions - No One Like You
Survivor - High On You
Survivor - The Search is Over
Tom Petty - Love is a Long Road
U2 - With or Without You
Genesis - Invisible Touch
Scorpions - Rhythm of Love
Blue Oyster Cult - Dancin in the Ruins
-
Fred Mercury
Peter Gabriel
Tom Petty
Klaus Meine
Sammy Hagar
Jackson Browne
Bryan Adams

Most annoying things in music:
1. When the vocals begin in any Led Zepplin song.
2. Any uplifting-sounding song.
3. When a song is dead on its feet going nowhere (IE: Kansas - Dust in the Wind, Scorpions - Winds of Change)
4. When a song goes from a great rhythm to something totally different (Queen - Heaven for Everyone, U2 - Beautiful Day)
-
Top 5:
Tom Petty - Learning to Fly
Peter Gabriel - In Your Eyes
Peter Gabriel - Red Rain
Metallica - Unforgiven
Aerosmith - Dream On
-
"So" by Peter Gabriel is the greatest album of all time.

My Love Will Not Let You Down - Bruce Springsteen
Sometimes it might seem like it was planned
For you to roam empty hearted through this land
Though the world turns you hard and cold
There's one thing mister, that I know
That's if you think your heart is stone
And that you're rough enough to whip this world alone
Alone buddy there ain't no peace of mind
That's why I'll keep searching till I find my special one
