name a rock and roll song

[shred5]

Come Together - Aerosmith

And the whole lot of Aerosmith discography!

 

[Cloudsky]

Btw come together is a beatles song

 

[ixora05]

LOL.
to Vaiyen: really? okay. was wondering why theblueark asked you if you were tearing your hair out. I thought my questions were really silly.

 

[Vaiyen]

nah, I'm no authority on classification, so how could I deem others as silly. And I think theblueark was just being cheeky la.

 

[ixora05]

oh dear. never mind. i shall keep quiet after this, lest I betray the poppish mainstream tastes of my generation.

 

[MadWerewolfBoy]

yep... i think rock is more moody anger stuff and is usually associated with minor scales but rock n roll is cheerry and happening and usually major scales...

oui no 1 read what i say ah...

just realised... minor is also used for rock n roll... and some rock n roll really do eat into rock... kinda over lap a bit... but u know those hard rock and stuff, they're rock alright...

i guess the content counts too... if its bout frustration, violence, sex and negative stuff, its most probably rock...

if its lighter stuff, it may be rock n roll... or may be rock...

if its positive stuff, then its most probably rock n roll

my generation - the who

 

[ixora05]

I'm listening to that song now, lol.

but I don't think The Who count, judging from what has been said here.

 

[Rotlung]

Honky Tonk Women - The Rolling Stones

I am surprised nobody mentioned them.

 

[Jayshen]

layla by clapton

Crossroads -cream
sunshine of your love - cream

 

[Rotlung]

Correction: Layla was by Derek and the Dominos

I wouldn't really consider what you've listed as rock & roll, to be precise though. They are rock nonetheless.

Perhaps a distinction we need to draw here is that rock & roll is a subset of rock, not the other, and rock & roll songs are not necessarily rock anthems.

Cheers.

Rock you like a hurricane

 

[wangdexian]

Hound Dog - Elvis

 

[Frozen]

Let There Be Rock by ACDC is stuck in my head...

"Let there be light! Sound! Drums! and Guitar!
Oh, let there be rock!"

 

[Mr_Bear]

elvis ....

 

[Rotlung]

AC/DC is not rock and roll. Rock and roll is not the same as a rock anthem. They are not mutually exclusive though. Check out Chuck Berry's School Day.

 

[angusyoung]

acdc is la. then again they're more towards hard rock.

 

[Rotlung]

They are hard rock. No where close to being Rock n' Roll.

 

[classics]

[spikes]

rock and roll guitar solos usually have alot of doubling? i dont know, most rock and roll songs i hear have doubling...
