    Most everything the Rolling Stones have done.

    Old Time Rock and Roll - Bob Segar. I can't turn the station quick enough when I heard that piano intro.

    Anything from Starship. I loved the Airplane, and saw them a few times in concert, but Starship was an unholy mess that never got off the ground. I've got others I'll weigh in with later, if someone else hasn't done it already.

    black water is an awesome song. i actually think it's underrated, at least from the perspective of a 24 yr old....

    but the absolute lamest, most god-awful, overrated classic rock song - nay - any song period is hotel california by the suck-ass eagles. i loathe that song almost to the point of sheer anger.

    Anything by Led Zeppelin. I swear to God...classic rock stations in my area ram Led Zeppelin down our throats 24 hours a day. They play the same damn songs over and over again.

    As far as I'm concerned, Led Zeppelin is a dead band. I don't need to hear those same five or ten songs they play over and over and over. A lot of times...I can switch between classic rock stations and their both playing the same Zeppelin songs at the same time.

    Who the hell made Led Zeppelin God of the classic rock airwaves? It just gets so old after them doing this year after year. Those songs just wear the ears out after a while...even if they are good.

    I wish they would play more Rush and more variety of Rush besides the very few songs they do play which are far and few between.

    It would be easier to point out the songs I can stand from the 200 song classic rock playlist.

    i feel you there, but Zeppelin has so many fantastic songs that don't get regular air play. better yet, listen to their live stuff.... bootlegs, DVD's, BBC Sessions, etc.

    besides, they were anoited by Zeus himself on Mt. Olympus.

    I think SWT is going to kill me for saying this, but I have NEVER been able to get into an Allman Brothers song. :(

    Doobie Brothers - Anything.
    Bruce Springsteen - Anything.
    Bob Seger - Anything.
    Bachman Turner Overdrive - Anything.
    Eagles - Anything but Those Shoes and non-radio songs
    Golden Earing - Anything - oh wait they only have Radar Love
    Starship - Built This City - good call.
    Blue Oyster Cult - Don't Fear the Reaper.
    Styx - Come Sail Away
    Nazareth - Love Hurts
    Eric Clapton - I Shot The Sheriff (Eric...what were you thinking?)
    Manfred Man - Blinded by the Light - I heard it waaayy too many times when it came out.
    Led Zeppelin's most played songs. Kashmer, Whole Lotta Love, Stairway to Heaven, etc. I like some of the lesser played songs but I'm completely burnt out on those overplayed ones.

    Actually I would pass on most 70s rock songs and bands. Some Yes and some Todd Rundgren , ELP, etc those types are still ok to me.

    "Money" by Pink Floyd and "Maybe I'm Amazed" by Wings/Paul McCartney. the latter just crushes my soul the second i hear it. i don't know why, but i cannot stand it.

    He was thinking that Bob Marley kicks ass, and rightfully so.
