Rockin' Oldies
Well, we all know that some of our parents will make someone commit suicide one day due to the horriblness. But sitting around a camp fire with a guy
that played old rock, made me realize that there were some awesome old songs.
I know Ian, the Eagles are golden. They always will be.
But, I dunno... I'm in love with America's- A Horse With No Name.
So, discuss.. Old rock songs.
one last show.

Ah what ever floats your boat. More likely oldies, all that acoustic stuff. But stuff before our time I guess.

The night's as hot as hell. It's a lousy room in a lousy part of a lousy town - I'm staring at a goddess. She's telling me she
wants me. I'm not going to waste one more minute wondering how I've gotten this lucky. She smells like angels ought to smell, the perfect
woman... the Goddess. Goldie. She says her name is Goldie.

Three words: Creedance Clearwater Revival. Other than that, anything from the 80's in one hit wonder form: Deep Blue Something, Glass Tiger,
Rick Springfield, The Vapors...
And Dez: The Fugees don't really count as old yet do they? :S
Especially since Bob Marley and the Wailer's "No Woman No Cry" is dominant.

I just couldn't appreciate Queen when I was younger and now I'm just so amazed whenever I hear their music. They are so talented.
