So the title says it all, I forced the majority of my irl and online friends to listen to some of my favorite rock songs, spanning from smooth rock to hairband, to even punk rock and pop rock. Bands like U2, Metallica, Black Sabbath, Lit, Blink-182, Motely Crüe, System of A Down, The Police, David Bowie, Journey, etc. Here is what they all have to say:


Favorite “70’s-90’s Ballad”:

  • Something To Believe In — Poison

Honorable mentions:

  • Two Steps Behind — Def Leppard
  • More Than Words — Extreme

Favorite “Deep Dive”:

  • We Close Our Eyes — Oingo Boingo

Honorable Mentions:

  • Don’t Stop — Fleetwood Mac
  • She Talks To Angels — The Black Crowes

Favorite “Hard Rock”:

  • Kickstart My Heart — Motley Crue

Honorable Mentions:

  • Good Enough — Van Halen / (FINALLY THEY GOT A VAN HALEN IN HERE JEEZ)
  • YYZ — Rush

Favorite “Pop Rock”:

  • December, 1963 — Frankie Valli & The Four Seasons / (literally not even rock but they liked it more)
  • Oh Sherrie — Steve Perry / (same amount of votes for both)

Honorable Mentions:

  • Go Your Own Way — Fleetwood Mac

Honorable Mentions:

  • Brandy (You’re a Fine Girl) — Looking Glass / (also so goddamn proud)
  • Let’s Go Crazy — Prince / (am mad this was not higher on this list but oH wElL)

Note: In no way do my friend’s choices reflect my own beliefs. They literally outed The Eagles and U2 in this faux tourney and I’m salty.
