Aerosmith - Sweet Emotion

Sweet Emotion was Aerosmith's debut single from their 1975 Toys in the Attic album. It peaked at #36 on the Billboard Hot 100 charts. In 1991, they re-released the song as a single, and ironically, it peaked at #36 on the Billboard Mainstream Rock charts. The music video for the song shows a teenage boy talking on a sex line with what he believes to be a beautiful woman. At the end of the video, it's revealed that the woman is actually very overweight, poor and has a baby in her arms while she's talking to him. Enjoy!

Hello, I Love You was the Doors' second and last #1 single on the Billboard Hot 100 charts. It topped the charts in 1968. It was the second single released from their Waiting For the Sun album.

"Sidewalk crouches at her feet,
like a dog that begs for something sweet,
do you hope to make her see you, fool,
do you hope to pluck this dusky jewel."

Here I Go Again is Whitesnake's biggest hit to-date. Back in 1987, it topped the Billboard Hot 100 charts as well as the Canadian Singles charts. It's the only #1 hit of their career so far.

Phil Collins - Sussudio - Official Music Video

The rumor is Phil Collins' soon-to-be ex-wife is set to receive more money in a divorce settlement than Paul McCartney shelled out to Heather Mills in their ground-breaking divorce settlement. It's a good thing Phil made a lot of dough from songs like this one, Sussudio, which was a #1 hit for him back in 1985. Enjoy!

The Doors - Light My Fire

Light My Fire is one of the most famous rock songs of all-time. This video is from their first and only appearance on the Ed Sullivan Show. Sullivan asked the band to change the lyrics from "girl, we couldn't get much higher" to "girl, we couldn't get much better", but Morrison claimed he forgot to change the lyrics because he was nervous. In reality, Ray Manzarek wrote years later that the band had no intention of changing the lyrics. Sullivan told the band they'd never play on his show again, and Morrison gave one of his trademark responses, "Hey, man, so what, we just did the Sullivan show!" Enjoy!

The Beatles - Twist and Shout

No list of the greatest rock songs of all-time would be complete without featuring a Beatles song (actually a number of Beatles songs will be featured). My favorite Beatles song is their cover version of Twist and Shout, which was released as single in the U.K. in 1963 and the U.S. in 1964. It peaked at #2 on the Billboard Hot 100 charts in '64. It enjoyed a resurgence of popularity in 1986 when it was featured in the movie Ferris Bueller's Day Off. So much so, that it peaked at #23 on the Billboard Hot 100 charts that summer. Enjoy!

Bon Jovi - Livin' On A Prayer

There's one major reason why I loved Bon Jovi's Livin' On A Prayer. I was in high school when it was released, and the girls absolutely went berserk over this song. You could play Bon Jovi's Slippery When Wet cassette, and when Livin' On A Prayer came on, the girls would go crazy singing along. It was a good time to be a teenager. This song topped VH1's list of The 100 Greatest Songs of the 80's. It was also their first song to go to #1 on both the Billboard Hot 100 and Mainstream Rock charts. Enjoy!

Guns N' Roses - Welcome to the Jungle

Guns N' Roses' Welcome to the Jungle was a very close second to AC/DC's You Shook Me All Night Long as my favorite rock song of all-time. I remember the first time I heard this song. I was blown away because they looked like a hair band, but played and sounded like a heavy metal band with a slight hint of pop influence. It truly was a ground-breaking song. Enjoy!

Bob Dylan - Like A Rolling Stone

Rolling Stone magazine named Bob Dylan's Like a Rolling Stone it's Greatest Song of All-Time. He released the song as a single in 1965, and although it's length (over six minutes) prevented it from being played heavily on the radio, it still rose all the way to #2 on the Billboard Hot 100 charts. At the time of it's release, many Dylan fans did not like the song because it had a much harder and edgier tone than his folksy earlier stuff. However, this song is considered to be a pivotal point in American rock music as it ushered in a harder rock sound. Enjoy!
