You could call this compilation ‘a gentle introduction to rock’. This list is highly subjective. Please put it down to my ignorance if your favourite classics are missing. But if I were to compile a Desert Island Disc, all these songs would find a place on it. Here’s my top 20, in no particular order:
Bed of Roses – Bonjovi
Unforgiven – Metallica
Light my fire – The Doors
Smells like teen spirit – Nirvana
The man who sold the world – Nirvana
Bohemian Rhapsody – Queen
We are the champions – Queen
One – U2
Girl, you’ll be a woman soon – Urge Overkill
Blowing in the wind – Bob Dylan
With a little help from my friends – Joe Cocker
Zombie – The Cranberries
Crazy – Aerosmith
Victim of love – Eagles
More than words – Extreme
Black magic woman – Carlos Santana
The pretender – Jackson Browne
Don’t cry – Guns n Roses
Final Countdown – Europe
Love is on the way – Saigon Kick
As you’ve probably noticed, most of this list is soft rock/ballads, not much headbanging. Listen and enjoy!
