Image
From: Parallel Lines ; Year: 1978; Genre: Rock/New Wave This is one of the band's most recognizable songs, it's sad you hear it so much being used in advertisements, but that's what happens nowadays.

4607. Chris Squire - Safe (Canon Song)

Image
From: Fish Out Of Water ; Year: 1975; Genre: Progressive Rock/Symphonic Rock Was thinking about this album today and thought I'd pick a song from it for today's song choice.

4606. Rush - Heresy

Image
From: Roll the Bones ; Year: 1991; Genre: Progressive Rock There's something about the sound of this period in Rush's work that speaks to me; it probably has to do with hearing such sounds in my early teenage years. Anyway, this is quite a deep song lyrically about the changing political and social climates of the late 80s/early 90s and how it affected people who spent their lives in the horrible conditions on the other side of the Iron Curtain. "All those precious wasted years. Who will pay?" Hear Heresy on YouTube.

Image
From: Loud 'n' Proud ; Year: 1974; Genre: Hard Rock I love the galloping guitar thoughout this one; it's very high energy.

4602. Buffalo Springfield - For What It's Worth

Image
From: Buffalo Springfield ; Year: 1967; Genre: Rock I'm kind of surprised I had not chosen this song yet, being that it's the band's most famous track.

Image
