GREAT song!

Indeed!

Everybody Wants to Rule The World - Tears For Fears

I love Tears for Fears! Great song, but my favorite from them is "Shout"!

"LET IT ALL OUT, THESE ARE THE THINGS I CAN DO WITH OUT!!!"

The singles from that album by Tears for Fears are great! And are certainly timeless tunes. But I think I prefer something off their debut album. The songs are generally darker and more haunting. Mad World, Change and Pale Shelter were all great singles from the debut.

Change - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VuC5HAlZZZw

Mad World - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=urW5lfAcaM8

2 Pac - California Love

Billy Joel - We Didn't start the fire

Don Henley - Boys of Summer

Journey - Don't stop believin'

The Eagles - Hotel California

BALTIMORA - Tarzan Boy

If that's the one that goes - "oh o oh o oh o oh o" or something like that then I agree totally.

I also LOVE that song from the mid-80's that had a line that went something like this "when good advice from friends is needed (can't remember the next) and then " hey, hey, hey, hey, HEY!!" LOL, does that ring a bell?

Good call on Neverending Story!

That song is "Fascination" by HUMAN LEAGUE....great tune....

"Run Runaway"- SLADE
"Coming Up CLose"- TIL TUESDAY
"Wreck Of The Edmund Fitzgerald"- GORDON LIGHTFOOT
"Lawyers Guns & Money"- WARREN ZEVON

OOh! I love that Til Tuesday song!

another of my faves:

Berlin ~ Take My Breath Away

DANGER ZONE - Kenny Loggins!

Some of the bands mentioned here (Manfed Mann, Henry Gross, Stories, etc.) have some real interesting rock buried under their hit collections.

Also I have to admit that I think Suite Madame Blue by Styx is one of the greatest songs ever made. I refuse to listen to the radio just to be sure I never get tired of that song. I still get chills when the guitar kicks in after all the build-up.

p.s.- Tears for Fears-The Hurting. It rules.

I know I might get ridiculed for some of these but who cares? Now these are only 50 out of countless hundreds. However, don't think just because metal is outweighed by non-metal means that I follow trends, I just like music of many kinds (except modern country, modern R&B, and 98% of rap crap) and like what I like no matter what anyone says.

My sentiments exactly.

What does it matter if someone thinks what I like is 'uncool'? As if I need their approval.

I'm with you - I follow no trends either. I'm also with you in that I don't like modern country, modern R&B, and rap crap
