Ramble On...

Isn't funny how sometimes one song can so strong effect your opinion of band? Before I heard Ramble On I thought Led Zeppelin was a pretty decent band. After all how can you not like them after listening to Stairway to Heaven? But after hearing this song I was just totally sold. Come on it's a song about the Lord of Rings, and I'm sorry any band that sings about that is pretty damn cool in my book. And there are other bands that had similar effects on me. You've probably heard me talk about this one again, but I'll say it again. AC/DC had me completely sold with You Shook Me All Night. Before that I was a little what the fuck is with this band. But the only song I heard was Big Balls and I thought the band could only be appreciated by horny teenage boys. Of course, now that I'm older I have a greater appreciation for the song. Maybe that's just me trying to revert to lost innonence. Let me see if I can think of some other songs that also had that effect. When there's that Yes song called I've Seen All Good People. Hey a song about chess is pretty cool in my book. Though I don't know how to play, maybe I should learn sometime. Another big one was of course Satisifaction by the Stones, I know how predictable. The Beatles is another obvious one, though it is a toss-up between All You Need is Love and I Want To Hold Your Hand. This one will be obvious if you know me or even if you read my blogs, With or Without You by U2. I probably should have something about my favorite band, Aerosmoth. I guess in their case it would also be two songs, Living on the edge and Amazin'. Just like you I can also predict what you would ask, what about the other way. Where the songs that made you hate the band. Of course, but I think that would require another whole blog.
