    when I think of soft rock, Toad the Wet Sproket and Gin Blossoms comes to mind, but that's alternative to most people.

    "All I Want" Toad the Wet Sproket is one of my all time favs which that and Maroon 5's "Sunday Morning" are the first 2 songs I look for at Kareoke Bars

    "Until I Hear it from You" by Gin Blossoms

    "Drive" by Incubus

    The Cars are a great band and their debut is one of the greatest debut albums ever, but I wouldn't call them "soft rock" - more new wave/pop than anything else.

    I'll nominate "That's All" by Genesis.

    I seriously think this is the worst song of all time. Marty Balin makes me want to take a hostage. What a slimy douche! I guess that is redundant.

    Yet, I will ad this song to the discussion, "Reminiscing" by Little River Band which will make a lot of people want to vomit...

    Also, one of my all-time favorite songs...Paul McCartney's "Arrow Through Me!"

    Boston didn't sing "I Want to Know What Love Is" - that was done by Foreigner, and according to most of the band, was the song that nearly ruined them, lol.
