I like it. Mostly "classic" Rock. I'm glad Buddy and Bowie made it.

I suspect that the "Songfactors' Choice Ultimate Top Ten" is inevitably going to be classic rock. If you want to be pessimistic about it, you might call it the lowest common denominator, but these songs are really just the ones that we are going to get a concensus on. That's what makes them "classic" rock.
