Conversations With Marva: Old School Friday: Rock Songs

  • Sharon · 1 year ago
    Girl, at first I thought y'all were playing.

    Rock songs?

    I didn't listen to any growing up. Know I have taken a liken to quite a few groups and songs.

    The Freebird song I have heard before it is cool.
    The first I heard of the group Queen.

    This is great, classic stuff. I'm a huge Queen fan, and have always loved rock since I was a kid. Much more than R&B, truth be told.

    Great post.

    I think we're all exposing ourselves on this week's theme.

    I never knew who sand FreeBird. Thanks for the school'n. :grin:

    I love rock music.

    Freddie Mercury was an amazing singer, I love Queen! Good choice...Party Hard & Rock On!!!

    Freebird's guitar riff is amazing, it give me chills like the riff in the Eagles' Hotel California. :)

    Love Queen and still miss Freddy Mercury to this day. Unparalleled voice. Great song from Lynyrd Skynyrd.

    Girl, Queen was the business! I love me some Freddy Mecury (RIP). And Freebird is a great song! And when you listen to the words and then what happened to most of the band, its gives you chills. I also love Sweet Home Alabama. That guitar riff is off the chain.

    Great picks! Happy OSF!

    Great choices. I did mine so early that I had to come back this morning to get the lists. lol
    Bohemian Rhapsody is probably one of the greatest songs ever.
    I'm not as familiar with Lynyrd Sknyrd, but "Freebird" is a classic.

    Awww sheet now--I was gonna post Bohemian Rhapsody--glad I didn't...I LOVE that song and love Freddy Mercury!
  • DP · 1 year ago
    Happy OSF! Great picks. That guitar solo in Freebird has to be one of the top ever. Good job with Queen too.
  • pjazzypar · 1 year ago
    Really good choices. I love Freebird.
  • MrsGrapevine · 1 year ago
    I just can't believe how many of us like queen. I was so close to posting that song. I went through 20 songs before I finally decided. I still wasn't satisfied, we have to do another rock theme.

    What is a rock theme without lynyrd sknyrd
  • CeeCee · 1 year ago
    Oh wow, Queen! What's not to like????? "Under Pressure", "another one bites the dust"...and good ol' Skynrd. Loving this Old School Friday!!
  • Marcus LANGFORD · 1 year ago
    This was a pretty good week for me to become more familiar with some bands that I really wouldn't normally listen to. You have two great picks here!

    Happy OSF!

    Happy belated OSF! I don't know much about Rock music. I've enjoyed visiting the participants this week and learning some new music choices...

    Thank you for visiting my effort to comply with the Rock song theme. I invite your blog readers to check out The BusBoys if they have time or inclinaton.

    peace, Villager
