[Raider_69]

I have too many favourites. I might only be 19, but I love old music better than new.

Led Zeppelin's - Going to California is a top song. Anything by AC/DC or Led Zep or the Stones or Bob Marley or the Doors. The Beatles carve it up too, Queen, Gunners, Beach Boys, Jimi Hendrix... argh! Too much.

 

[Godz Illa]

Exactly. Its just too tough to narrow down to one or even a dozen songs.

I might only be 19, but I love old music better than new.

yep, i turn 17 next wednsday and i love the old stuff
anything by Queen is tops, Bob Marley - Buffalo Soldier is a good song
Piano man is another one of my favs 8)

 

[Jono Russell]

i agree with elgarbo... it would be easier for me to name my worst then the favourites.


But i will give a mention to the song 'If You Want Blood' which is the song that i first ever heard from the band ac/dc and which got me into them

 

[Red Bear]

Beatles, Metallica, Sabbath, 80's punk, etc etc is all good.

In a vaguely alphabetical order:

AC/DC - Back in Black
Black Sabbath - Paranoid
David Bowie - Starman
The Clash - London Calling
Cream - Sunshine of Your Love
The Doors - The End
Jimi Hendrix - All Along the Watchtower
Led Zeppelin - Stairway to Heaven
Bob Marley - Three Little Birds
Queen - Bohemian Rhapsody
Rolling Stones - You Can't Always Get What You Want
Van Halen - Eruption

Led Zeppelin...Pink Floyd...Queen...Kiss. It's usually Zeppelin though when I'm after a nostalgia hit.

That's as far back as I go, classical stuff excepted.

 

[DEMON]

Black Dog,Misty Mountain Hop,Kasmir all good Led Zep tunes,the Doors are especially good after a few drinks & other Illicit items ;-) .

[astrogirl]

The Beatles - their early stuff

The Eagles - especially One of These Nights

 

[fat_mike]

i was lucky my dad listened to shitloads of music when i was younger. i always loved when he would put on anything by black sabbath but especially sleeping village and war pigs. also i always have the eagles greatest hits in the car and me and couple of mates love putting them on and cranking take it easy peaceful easy feeling and hotel california. the clash is another i listen to quite often.

also love the wish you were here album by pink floyd. not many of my mates like pink floyd and i'm pretty sure i'm the only 20 years old in my area to like them. also a another band i loved when i was 8 was deep purple, highway star was always my favouite. absolutely love the old stuff.

 

[Melstar]

For me 'golden oldies' are pretty much the 80's. My dad used to lsiten to a lot of AC/DC, Kiss, the Eagles, Queen, Rolling Stones etc.

Does anyone remember the band Poison? I used to like them to when I was little lol

Just like every cowboy sings his sad, sad song
