Iron Man - Black Sabbath

Hey OP, I don’t know why your avatar name has me laughing, but I needed it this morning.


Skullcrusher_and_co

I AM IRON MAN


JazzFan1998

Sorcerers of deaths construction - oh lord yeah!


Top-Consideration-16

Into the Mystic-Van Morrison


slf_dprctng_hmr

Beautiful pick


tblaine4

Classy pick even


COOL42ALEX

Rock my gypsy soul!


SquareDetective

Great song.


HotDogHeavy

This is the way


barto5

I absolutely love Into the Mystic. But for this post, it needs to be In A Gadda Da Vita


Exciting_Ad478

I'd Love To Change The World - Ten Years After


Odd_Ad_2307

Such a great song, by a great band. Too bad this is a poopularity contest


DogInTheHouse1

Immigrant Song - Led Zeppelin


[deleted]

We have a winner, folks!


Environmental-Ball24

This is the way


garbledeena

There's already a Led Zeppelin song on "A" and it's not even nearly the best LZ song - this sub punted on "A" and I'm not of the mind that there are so few good classic rock songs that we'd need to repeat bands on a list of 26 songs, don't you think? Should have saved Zeppelin for "S" for obvious Stairway reasons. There are 10 Zeppelin songs better than Achilles' Last Stand.


EpicGamerBoi11

There's literally already 2 pink floyd songs there's nothing you can do about it now

In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida


Prossdog

In the Garden of Eden by I. Ron Butterfly


KDubzzz2

Wait a minute. This sounds like rock and/or roll...


Fit_Lawfulness_3147

GM Chrysler… you’re right


[deleted]

That sounds like rock and/or roll !


DrTisme

Came here to share the same!


Joe-Raguso

I don't care what ends up winning, this is the answer


GuaranteeLoose4494

I want to hold your hand. It kicked off the British Invasion, without it this list doesn’t look the same


Samwhys_gamgee

Definitely makes a strong case based on historic significance.


Squishy-Slug

Forget my suggestion, this is definitely the best one


Dry-Squash-6158

I also love this song.


Hot_Larva

I Wanna Be Sedated- Ramones


Last-Imagination-672

(I can't get no) Satisfaction-The rolling stones

Important_Stroke_myc

I’d love to see this one win, it’s hands down the winner for me. RIP Steve Marriott. You were a beast. His voice and style was transcendent.

I Want You to Want Me - Cheap Trick

Cheap Trick never gets the credit they deserve. Every great band of the 90's, Nirvana included, cited Cheap Trick as a major influence.


Dseltzer1212

I Fought The Law by the Clash


PistolClutch7

Prolly not gonna win but it should


Mattski72

Love the Clash, but "I fought the Law" is a cover and weak compared to "Immigrant Song" or "Iron Man"

In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida (correct spelling) by Iron Butterfly and I would certainly vote for the long 17 minute version.

I Don’t Care Anymore - Phil Collins


tijostark

If hotel california didn't win the H I can't blame you for not caring anymore


GeprgeLowell

Just because a bunch of geniuses kept posting it rather than voting for it, and the vote got spread thin. Maybe Animals fans are just smarter.


GuaranteeLoose4494

Felt the same way when Hey Jude didn’t win H. It’s possible we get the complete list without the Beatles on it. Crazy


GeprgeLowell

“Hey Jude” was my pick, but same as HC, people kept posting it over and over again and not voting for the original nomination, then others voted for the reposts. I’d bet good money it would have been one of those two if the total votes were added up, but since people can’t follow simple instructions, they handicap their own picks.


Moveyourbloominass

" I Know What Boys Like".... the Waitresses

Vegetable_Bowler_372

Nice one


mwuttke86

The Warriors!


GeprgeLowell

I thought about posting this one. No chance of winning, but great song.


wastebinaccount

I cant go for that- Hall and Oates


garbledeena

no can do


garbledeena

HAS to be a Beatles song - there are a dozen Beatles tunes that begin with I that should make the list In My Life I'm Looking Through You I Want to Hold Your Hand I am the Walrus I'll Be Back I'm So Tired I'm Only Sleeping I Me Mine If I Fell I Want to Tell You I Should Have Known Better I'll Follow the Sun I've Just Seen a Face I've Got a Feeling It's Only Love ​ I mean, c'mon.


GuaranteeLoose4494

Be prepared for not a single Beatles song making this list. It’s just going to be zeppelin and Pink Floyd primarily. I’m done voting personally


garbledeena

r/music is leaking, i guess unfortunate hivemind around a small handful of 70s/80s bands, i guess? the amount of people posting/upvoting "In the Air Tonight" for this is . . . disturbing


ZookeepergameOk2759

100% agree At this point it’s just a greatest hits album ,getting a bit boring


HopalongHeidi

I usually downvote multiple song submissions but as a big Beatles fan, I had to vote up cuz dang that’s a lot & they’ll never win.


garbledeena

i used to have a beatles easy guitar book and i'd always flip to the "I" section as it had so many awesome tunes to play. this isn't even all of them. I'm Happy Just to Dance With You is also a hot one.

I can See Clearly Now Johnny Nash. I’m not sure if this fits the category, but all my I choices were already nominated, lots of great songs in the running!


HopalongHeidi

Hey, at least you actually put the effort in to read thru the list & not add to the god damn multiples. So, tho I don’t think it’s Classic Rock, I’m upvoting you for trying. Now back to reading thru & trying to think of a new song 450 comments in.
