It's 1973: Deep Purple's "Highway Star" set at "11". 17 yrs old + '67 327 camarro rs + all the "trimmings". Blackmore's lead: priceless. Never re-created that one, although lots of attempts.
Best rock song of all times
Only one answer please.
Not the best written or the best musical complexity but the one that represents the rock.
My choice: Satisfaction - Rolling Stones
Reasons:
- first notes are like the 5th of Beethoven (when you hear those notes, everybody pumps up the volume)
- still very up to date
- a mix of rock and blues rock and Motown sound
- lyrics talks about disatisfaction of young people vs life, politics, money and women (even B Dylan like that song)
- music is very basic as a good rock song should be
