: The impossible thread

So I heard a rock song on the radio today, but didn't catch the name. What's even better, I completely forget the lyrics to it.

It sounded like it was from the 70's, had a lot of energy, and a nice pop to it. It kind of had a vague "38 Special" kind of vibe to it, but I doubt it was them. Lots of guitar, great song...heard it before, but not too much.

Anyone have any ideas as to what it might be? I know this sounds a bit impossible, but I've actually posted threads like this in the past and people were actually able to figure out the song I had in mind.

if you have an iphone, Shazam is the Bomb! its a program at the push of a button that listens to any song played anywhere and it will tell you the artist, song, and album.

"Paralyzer" by Finger Eleven comes to mind... but I'm sure it'll take more than one guess.

^If its not on CD with the ABC song I probably do not know it. Now I know why you get a little out of touch with music as you get older. KIDS.

Heh. I've gotten my little niece hooked on some of my music. She's only 14 months, but she likes Dream Theater.

Finger Eleven is way too new. This was definitely classic rock, my guestimate was that it was from the 70's

Oh oh oh, I didn't realize it was truly an older song, and not a newer song that sounds old. Gotcha.

Has anyone ever been in a position where you can't escape a song?

It seems that lately when I go out drinking I end up hearing this song and it gets stuck in my head all night

Definitely not. These guys were way before GNR, and didn't sound a thing like them.

I'm not even sure of the station, that's the crappy part.

So in my sleep last night, this song popped into my head. I'm not 100%, but I'm pretty sure this is the one:
