Quick Thoughts: Saw them last summer at The Honda Center in Anaheim. Couldn't pass up the chance to witness one of the legendary bands of Rock History. Great energy on this song. This was the first song featuring the keyboard playing of Eddie Van Halen. Lyrics refer to a state of declining youth. (Have you seen Junior's grades?)
Ranking from Original "Top 1000" List: 998
Total Songs Added to Final List: 2
Having grown up listening to mostly hip-hop, R&B, some alternative, and all sorts of music in Spanish, I decided it was time to give myself a personal survey of Rock music. My friend BJ Swanner compiled a "Top 1000 Rock Song List", aggregated from several "Top Lists". As I go through all 1,000 songs, I'll be creating my own list, sharing a brief post like this, along the way, for all the songs that will make my final list. I will not be ranking the songs that make it to my final list.....for now.
