Feels Like the First Time - Foreigner
Hold on Loosely - .38 Special
Dream On - Aerosmith
Photograph -Def Leppard
The Chain - Fleetwood Mac
Barracuda - Heart
Most anything early by U2
Magic Carpet Ride - Steppenwolf
Don't Fear the Reaper - Blue Oyster Cult
(something obligatory by The Rolling Stones, even though I think they suck)
More Than a Feeling - Boston

As much as I like Hold The Line, though...it has no business in any Top 100. I agree with Africa being there.

I think a couple of Bob Seger songs should be on that list. Definitely need some Lynard skynard. Maybe Edge of Seventeen by Stevie Nix? Couple more Heart songs would round it out nicely.

Would Eye of The Tiger and Final Countdown belong on this list?

I think Nirvana should not be on a classic rock list; they came along after the era of what we call the classic rock genre.

Thanks, man. I love the Final Countdown and can't imagine how I forgot it!
