I never did care much for that song. Just never understood what people saw in it.

I agree. They are the Worlds most over rated Rock Band.
You have to like them or your not "Cool".
Plus they plagiarized many of their songs.

When I asked about that, the posters explained that they were on drugs at the time. And maybe they were in junior high school, unless they're quite old now. I liked Barry Manilow when I was in 7th grade.

One reason is that anyone with a guitar at the time could play the opening. Very easy to learn. "You too could be the next Jimmy Page"

It’s like Freebird for those who aren’t from Dixie.

lol...with a username like your's it's not hard to figure that

it has been overplayed like Freebird...it tends to trivialize stuff

if Korn or Limp Bizkit or Deftones or Papa Roach had anything so drummed into the culture's head you'd wonder what was the big deal there too...when you are 40 years out from your High School musical chronology you will likely look around too and go what the hell in comparing musical landscapes.

very little of today's stuff appeals to me..if I put the TV on background it goes to GAC or VHI classics

on Raphsody on my Droid if not on talk radio already I tend to listen to older stuff I like from early to a few contemporaries

My older kids like Avenge Sevenfold...something derived from Sabbath to Korn and then back to this weird horror rock...but it really doesn't work for me and the vulgarity is over the top

God is alive but rock is fairly dead

Ha. As a novelty it was okay, but after about 1000 hearings of "a rock classic", I grew to despise it. My husband cries blasphemy, but we can't help such things.

When I was very young, I was staying with my parents in a hotel where Led Zeppelin had taken up residence. I remember my sister and I being in the swimming pool early one evening and them staggering drunk out on their balcony and inviting us up to their room. We dove out of the pool and scrambled away, although later we entertained thoughts of what if...not that we would have ventured up there. I do wish we had asked them to toss us an autographed shirt or something.

After hearing it for the 10^3 time, it kinda' lost its appeal.
