Listening to Rock 92, and I hear a lot of songs that are not classic rock. So I thought I would start posting thses songs, and get decision here.

Now this first song is a cool song, but is it classic rock?

I say no and should never be played on any classic rock stations.

btw the chick off of Palmers right shoulder....mmmmmmmm

lol yeah I know the past is the past and rock and roll is rock and roll. But I'm talking about Rock. I guess you have to decide when rock started.I think rock started in the mid-60s. Now classic is supposed to be anything 25 years and older... So 1991 and older is classic. But that doesn't make this...

classic rock

When I was a senior in high school  in 1992, Rock 92 played songs from the 60s and 70s. That was 24 years ago. The 80s are fair game now. And when the sprinkle in some Pearl Jam and Nirvana I don't get mad at all.

Must be at least 5 mins long and include at least one guitar solo.  A saxophone is fine as long as it meets the two aforementioned requirements.  An instrumental is also allowed so long as any of the three are included. 

If the song is over 5 mins and includes any of the requirements yet there is makeup or long hair and this band didn’t start playing until after 1980, it is NOT classic rock. KISS is ahem, grandfathered in.

Robert Palmer has other stuff that is classic rock but Addicted to love isn't it but i concur with stirs on the video.

I think it has more to do with the popularity/recognizability of the song itself. If you can sing the words before the words start, then it might qualify. And it has to be rock, not pop. Madonna fits those criteria, but was never misconstrued as rock.

Name one song by the Knack other than "My Sharona"......

That's the real problem, confusing hits with rock. Very few rock songs are hits now, so doubt there will be much confusion in the future. But that transition from the radio to MTV screwed everything up.

Only song I really know from Edgar Winter only cuz just couldnt get into it...

      Kicker

      Well, they're both in the same league (if you will). During preseason, Fitz went 3/3 & Sauls went 5/6, but of course Sauls was 4/4 last night (including one 50+). Both were Lou Groza Award finalists. I believe Fitz made two 55+ yarders last season, while Sauls led the nation with three. Fitz was 13/13 (💯) while Sauls was 21/24 (87.5). Fitz was a 3rd-Team AP All-American, while Sauls was a PFF All-American.  Career-wise, Fitz was 58/74 (78.4), while Sauls was 52/64 (81.3). I wish that I could see the attempts and knew the depth of yardage. I wish that we could compare practice kicks during their training camps, but we can't. Maybe someone with a PFF/CFF account can give that Basically it's just a matter of belief I guess. Seeing dude knock down four FGs and go perfect during a pressure-filled game for him is damned impressive if you ask me. I don't believe that Fitzgerald could do that.  That being said, I'd have to know more. I will say that it may be worth mentioning that we seem to like PFF this year and Sauls being a PFF All-American may be notable. Now that being said, the Panthers may not be even considering Sauls.

      Ive said it 1000x times on here.  Our 2025 season will be dictated by the first 4 games.  poo the bed there and lose all confidence and momentum, we win 5 games maybe.  Go 2-2, 3-1 we got a look at 7/8 wins

      I basically made almost the exact predictions on a phone call with a buddy about 3 weeks ago. I really do expect Evero gone before the seasons end, Young to just not able to get over the hump enough and DC to head into next season on a VERY hot seat.
