Tough Choice
4/4/2016 at 10:48 AM

I'll list 2, but there are so many top rock songs that if you ask me in a week, a month or a year, I'm sure my choices would be different.

Hotel California - Eagles
Proud Mary - Tina Turner

How can I be the 1st to mention 'The Final Countdown' by Europe? Best. Song. Ever. I cannot name a runner-up, but this song takes 1st & 2nd place on my list.

4/4/2016 at 8:13 PM

well, staying Canadian...

"Money City Maniacs" by Sloan

"Bounce" by Danko Jones

"Stop, Drop, Rock and Roll" by Manlab

There are too many good songs to choose from. I will say that most songs by Europe are hard pop at best, and are good songs, but disqualified from best rock song, IMO.

Paradise by the Dashboard Light - Meatloaf. Gotta be one of the best all time songs out there.

Take It Easy by the Eagles is my other pick.

Yeah I think that's gotta be at least one of the top 10 greatest songs of all time.
