Eh, getting tired of seeing Led Zeppelin on there, and while I don't care for country-western music, Rascal Flatts' new song that's has a country, and non-country-ish version, and I like it. :F (the country one's not that bad, but music at the chorus is a bit... unneeded.)

But yeah, I like "What Hurts the Most" (though I'll admit it's the only song I like from them) and I'm tired of seeing Zeppelin. =O

RF FTW

DM, just do it already! :roll:

Rascal Flatts most definetly. The beginning of "Me and My Gang" (the song) fascinates me to no end.

Wed Aug 23, 2006 6:31 pm

Not yet. Give me time. :P

The fact that Rascal Flatts are currently winning right now makes my skin crawl. I like them, and have seen them live, but come on. Look who they're up against. Seriously.

Wed Aug 23, 2006 8:48 pm

I'm completely unaware of most country music, so I have no idea what the hell Rascal Flatts is. Thus, LZ.

Wed Aug 23, 2006 10:02 pm

I don't care for country-ish music.

Rock band, plz. 8)

Wed Aug 23, 2006 10:09 pm

I like Rascall Flats, well, I like "What Hurts The Most". Good song.

Wed Aug 23, 2006 11:54 pm

Led Zeppelin.

Fin.

Led Zeppelin, considering that "Stariway to Heaven" is considered by many to be the best song of all time. Seriously people... who can be so heartless? It should not be a tie right now!

Thu Aug 24, 2006 2:11 am

If I hadn't already thrown up tonight (food poisoning), I'd throw up on Rascal Flatts.

"Many" being the key word. (though, "many" probably isn't that much, marginally)

Thu Aug 24, 2006 2:31 am

Regardless of your opinion, it is on several lists of the best songs of all time.
