Hey, Lifer here to give you videos. That's all.

 

The Who - Love, Reign O'er Me

One of the Who's more underrated songs IMO. Because to me this is a top 5 song of theirs. For a few months it was my favorite song, until I heard American Pie a few more times (go ahead and laugh, Mac). 

 

Led Zeppelin - D'yer Maker

Their "weird" song from Houses of the Holy (the "weird" album), supposed to be pronounced "Jamaica", which didn't really work out. I'm a sucker for heavy drums. 

 

Lynyrd Skynyrd - Simple Man

My favorite Lynyrd Skynyrd song, more than Free Bird and Sweet Home Alabama. A shining example of country rock at its finest. 

 

Deep Purple - Hush

 

This is one of those songs for me where you hear it all the time but never know whose song it is. I found out a week ago, and it has now become that song you can't stop listening to for about a week before you become sick of it. 

 

Hip to Be Square - Huey Lewis and The News

OK, I'll be honest, I only included this song because of that movie where Batman kills a guy with an axe.

I LOVE Simple Man. Have you heard Shinedown's remix of it? Not bad, either. But Skynyrd's had better guitar and bass.

I'm sure you laughed at my favorite song, LIFER...

July 21, 2008  08:53 PM ET

Some Metallica song.

AMAZING choice with Love, Reign O'er Me

July 21, 2008  08:54 PM ET

Wow, Hush too? Nice

July 21, 2008  09:21 PM ET

Hush is an awesome song. Great stuff, even the Huey Lewis pick seems inspired.

July 21, 2008  09:50 PM ET

Simple Man and Hush are GREAT songs

Love,reign over me isn't one I'm familiar with.Sounds ok.
D'yer Maker is a solid and underrated song from Physical Graffiti,it has sort of a reggae feel at the beggining.

Simple man is an awesome song,and I get what you're trying to say with Hush,I agree.
Hadn't heard Hip to be square,kind of odd.Very diverse,good job Lifer.

I think D'Yer Mak'er is from Houses of the Holy. I read somewhere that it's pronounced "dya-MAY-kah," or "Jamaica."

July 21, 2008  11:58 PM ET

Oh my gosh... I must be an idiot. You already said both those things in the blog. Please delete these comments. I must be very tired. lol

The 'American Psycho' reference at the bottom definitely saved ya.

When Huey first popped up, I thought I had a computer virus.

July 22, 2008  04:45 PM ET

Ahh,crap,I think you're right Chrono.Good song though.

July 24, 2008  12:11 AM ET

I think Love Reign O'er Me is one of The Who's most OVERRATED songs, to be honest.

Glad to hear someone shares some kind of a felling with me.Don't dislike it,just don't love it like everyone else.
