classic rock?
 

when i am in the car i usually don't listen to the radio but when i do its usually on a classic rock station and then my next choice is one of the many alternative stations here in dallas.

a few days ago, i heard 3 songs on a classic rock station that i had never heard on a classic rock channel before.

they were:

1. alice in chains- man in the box
2. guns n' roses- paradise city
3. nirvana- smells like teen spirit

are any of these or all of them classic rock songs? i am interested to here what others define as "classic rock," is it a time period or a type of music? many arguements can be had.

all it means is, is that you're getting old. [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]

On Q104.3 around here you will frequently hear all the early 90s rock bands. I personally don't like Alice in Chains so I would never classify them as such.

When I hear the term classic rock I think of Journey, Boston, Zep etc...It's hard to believe the aforementioned stuff is 15+ years old.

this is not classic rock. journey and boston are not classic rock. classic rock is eric clapton, zeppelin, creedence, hendrix, the allman brothers, fleetwood, skynyrd, the stones, stevie ray and santana to name a few...

I think it's definitely just the fact that we're getting older. I noticed the same thing today, actually. I heard some song, "I don't wanna come back down from this cloud," that I hadn't heard in years on the classic rock station here (feel free to post the title and artist for me, because I'm far too lazy, drunk, and tired to google it). Of the songs you listed, Paradise City (and other GnR) has been a classic rock station staple for the last 5 years at least. Smells Like Teen Spirit is just starting to creep in, and deservingly so, IMO. Alice in Chains? Meh.

I agree, despite the length and girth of the cock Journey sucks, it is most certainly classic rock. And Boston? Sheeeit, you should have been around in the late 70's, dude.
