I actually like a lot of classic rock (yes even Hotel California, that solo kicks ass) but there is a lot of bad classic rock too. What do you think the worst classic rock song is? What is the most overrated band or artist? I think Supertramp is mid at best, but Bob Seeger is truly dreadful.
“Love in an Elevator,” “Water Song/Janie’s Got a Gun,” the song from Armageddon, the one with Run DMC, “Dude (Looks Like a Lady),” “Toys in the Attic,” “Pink,” “Sweet Emotion” all had to have at least hit gold/top 40 given how many times I’ve heard them played ad nauseam during various summer and from teenagers’ bedrooms over the course of my life. Also they have a roller coaster at Disney World.
Please teach me your secret ninja wizard ways of going through life without hearing any Aerosmith.
Well for me it's pretty simple, don't have friends and don't have social hobbies in real life. Nobody's blasting any aerosmith at you in the grocery store or in a video game, and nobody's blasting aerosmith at you while you go for a walk or plant tomatoes or read a book.
I'm sure I've heard an aerosmith song or two but probably no more than that, and definitely couldn't identify even one.
Haha! You wanna know how bad off I am about this (and probably my whole generation)? As soon as you mentioned “video game” I immediately remembered Revolution X, the Aerosmith video game where you went from place to place shooting fascist super cops while being blasted with Aerosmith music as you save band members and “music and freedom as a whole.” It was at every skate rink and pizza joint. Help I’m drowning!
Dude Looks Like a Lady is horrific and I hate hearing that come on the radio but I had no idea it was Aerosmith. I've heard Jamie's Got a Gun too but not enough to have a reaction, also did not know that was them. I might recognize the others too but not by name and I'm now thinking maybe I'll keep it that way. Dream On is still pretty good though.
Well, we’re all blessed with there not being anymore song from them now that Steve Tyler’s vocal cords exploded on stage a few weeks ago.
