    Default What's your favorite 80's - early 90's rock, or metal song?

    There are just too many for me to decide, so I'll be adding several. Let's go with this favorite of many.

    There's so many, but this one is up there...

    Common sense is not a gift, it's a punishment because you have to deal with everyone who doesn't have it.

    NO metal collection is complete without Black Sabbath's album "Heaven And Hell."
    One of the cuts from it...



    Saw this live in 1980, one of the top 5 concerts I've ever been to.
    (R.I.P. Ronnie James Dio, one of the best voices in Metal, ever)

    Nirvana
    - First album in my life that I ever bought was nevermind when I was 9 years old. I wore the fuck out of their discography so it's really hard for me to say what is my favorites still to this day as it'll always change.

    Off top of my head:

    Aneurysm
    Drain You
    Heart shaped box
    Blew
    Dumb



    and many others

    Radiohead
    - Might be my favorite band of all time. For me though I am very mucha post-bends kind of fan. For the 90's that means we are sticking solely to Ok Computer:

    Paranoid Android
    Exit Music
    Karma Police

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1uYWYWPc9HU
    I just made someone an awesome playlist.

    Here's another one, and I really understand the feeling of this song at times.

    A sad commentary on we, as a people, and our viewpoint of our freedom can be summed up like this. We have liberals and conservatives, Democrats and Republicans, yet those very people look at Constitutionalists as radical and extreme.................so those liberals and conservatives, Democrats and Republicans must believe that the constitution is radical and extreme.

    AC/DC - Thunderstruck

    What kind of country have we become?

    One in which federal prosecutors can take “evidence” before a “grand jury,”

    and that grand jury can “vote to indict” a former president for 91 alleged “crimes”?

    The greatest album of the 1980s was "Disintegration" - The Cure. I will have my nominations for hard rock and metal tunes in subsequent posts.

    Greatest hard rock song of the 1980s (and arguable, of all time)

    My nomination for best bubble gum rock of the 1990s is Mmm-bop - Hansen
    I am probably going to have to punch myself in the mouth for admitting this, but I kinda like this extremely lame tune!
