[ARCHIVED THREAD] - Free bird (Page 1 of 2)

Quoted: I love it, but I can only listen to it once in a while. Which means I can't listen to our crappy "classic rock" station for more than an hour or so. I swear the DJ puts it on so he can drive home and make a sandwich before it ends. Iron butterfly if he needs to shit right ? |

That song has netted me two speeding tickets; it gets toward the end and my foot starts pressing the gas pedal down for some reason. |

No.
It was a great song, and then got played to death. Even 'Stairway to Heaven' hasn't received as much air play as 'Free Bird'. Both of those tunes get switched off as soon as I hear the first chords. There are dozens of other great Skynrd cuts. I'd much rather listen to 'Ain't No Good Life', or 'You Got That Right', for example. |

Quoted: Anyone who voted no should be banned. Ban me. There's better songs.by them. As pointed out. Like zeppelins SWTH just over played. More so once it's been used in a movie etc etc. I have no patience for some hipster who watched Jenny dance on a roofs edge in gump..or Devils rejects etc scream how awesome it is. Don't get c me wrong I like the band...just can't stand how over played it is. Like the word dag.... Yip cool back near 20 years ago....not so much when a 20 something bars it up with every four legged topic is posted. Getting old sucks ![]() |
| I mainly listen to XM or Spotify and none of the channels I listen to play classic rock. So, I might hear Freebird or Stairway to Heaven once or twice a year. Throw in a little Space Cowboy, and I'm nostalgic for hanging out in pool halls from my late teens. Head like a hole brings back the same nostalgia though. |

I have all their albums from the pre plane crash/burn days and a couple/three from after. I started listening to them in 1975 and started buying the records/cassettes in 1976 when I was in the Army.
That is the one song that makes me hit the skip button. I don't know why, I just don't want to hear it. |

Fucking Atlanta radio sucks. @ rock channels and between the two of them you will hear Led Zepplin, Pink Floyd, and Lynard at least twice an hour. |
