I'm not sure I heard those triplets the first time. Maybe you could repeat them?

it's not about thatit's about the total jammitude of the whole song

free bird is more of a jam but I'll take "tuesday's gone" every time

ughhhhhhhhhhh you guys I hate that I have missed most of this rollout so far. hopefully tomorrow will be kinder to me
crying into my can of beer that 'Walk Away' came in so low. I even voted it my #1 to give an extra bump. Oh well. Glad it ranked, it's such a great jame

echoing the above sentiments that "Free Bird" is a jam and that "Walk Away" is a jame

yeah i have nothing against "Free Bird" but i much prefer "Simple Man" and "Tuesday's Gone." by the same token "Sweet Home Alabama" is probably my least favorite of their uptempo hits.

i love when the horns show up in the second crazy break, this song has EVERYTHING

omg that is super embarrassing I just spazzed out about the wrong song
y can't vg read ;_;
― SEEMS TO ME (VegemiteGrrl), Monday, 28 July 2014 21:55 (nine years ago) link
Totally possible that there will be more Golden Earring songs in this countdown than CCR.

love it, btw
xpost yeah i think I voted sweet home pretty high just on classicness and I don't regret it but the one the pounded me on re-listening was "saturday night special"

Went through my ballot today and realized that I accidentally voted for Frankenstein twice.
I regret nothing.

I voted for it zero times, and I wish I could've voted for it zero times twice.

Really moving into serious classic rock territory now.

haha there were a couple things like that where i had to be careful not to count the song twice

I've never heard "Frankenstein" on the radio. Listening to it now; it's going on the "songs I probably should have voted for" list.
― Lewis - J'Agour (crüt), Monday, 28 July 2014 22:16 (nine years ago) link
whenever i open my mouth to hum/sing a "cliché CR riff" this song is reflexively what comes out, without even thinking about it, it's ingrained in my mind as "what a CR riff sounds like"
― °ㅇ๐ْ ° (gr8080), Monday, 28 July 2014 22:18 (nine years ago) link
Good first 20 today, y'all. Only one kind of sticks out as odd to me (Lou Reed), but people swear it's paid its classic rock radio dues, so I'm not arguing.
― Johnny Fever, Monday, 28 July 2014 22:18 (nine years ago) link
wow 0/20 today
― Darin, Monday, 28 July 2014 22:22 (nine years ago) link
I heard Walk on the Wild Side regularly on my hometown CR station, and they usually avoided that kind of stuff like the plague (there was no Bowie on their playlist, for example)

Don't know about this golden earring song guys. Really I don't see the need for any other golden earring songs other than radar love to even exist.
― Jeff, Monday, 28 July 2014 22:28 (nine years ago) link
When I was younger, I found it impossible to comprehend that Twilight Zone and Radar Love were actually by the same band. It made no sense to me.
― Johnny Fever, Monday, 28 July 2014 22:30 (nine years ago) link
great rollout, and great photos. lost my #1 though, feels like Wichita State all over again.

None of mine either but a solid rollout so far
― g simmel, Monday, 28 July 2014 22:53 (nine years ago) link
Four of mine so far, and one of my 'worst' has made the countdown. My highest placer so far is "You Ain't Seen Nothing Yet" which I had at #14 - still tons of potential for #80-#1 to be just wall to wall unquestionable classics.
― Doctor Casino, Monday, 28 July 2014 23:04 (nine years ago) link

does Free Bird have a good rep up north? bc down south it was the alpha and omega
for a number of mid-80s memorial day 500 countdowns in pittsburgh, it finished second
live version or gtfo tho
