The harmonies in the chorus really make me feel the emotion of the song, but the lyrical content isn’t as great as it could be, that’s why I rated it at a 6. The basic chord progression brings the song together. What drew me to this song was the incredible lead guitar. Satisfaction- The Rolling Stones (Out of Our Heads, 1965) My favorite set of lyrics: When something comes up to me he don’t even try, cause if I had a set of wings man I know she could fly, she’s my little deuce coupeĦ. The melodies and the vocals mix perfectly. Little Deuce Coupe is the song of harmonies- which is what The Beach Boys are known for, and it is incredibly prominent in this song. Little Deuce Coupe- The Beach Boys (Little Deuce Coupe, 1963) My favorite set of lyrics: And anytime you feel the pain, hey Jude, refrain, don’t carry the world upon your shoulders, for well you know that it’s a fool who plays it cool, by making his world a little colderħ. Hey Jude is a fantastic song, ranging from the vocal abilities to the amazing instrumentation. Hey Jude- The Beatles (The Beatles, 1968)Īnother “honorable mention” in my previous list, The Beatles formed music as we know it today. My favorite set of lyrics: If there’s a bustle in your hedgerow, don’t be alarmed now,it’s just a spring clean for the May queen, yes, there are two paths you can go by, but in the long run, there’s still time to change the road you’re on, And it makes me wonder.Ĩ. Jimmy Page is very talented on the guitar, especially in this very known song, with the long guitar solo, Similar to Pat Benatar’s hit, many people only know Led Zeppelin for this song. Stairway To Heaven- Led Zeppelin ( Led Zeppelin IV, 1971) My favorite set of lyrics: That’s okay, see if I care, knock me down, it’s all in vain, I get right back on my feet again.ĩ. Pat Benatar is such an empowering musician, especially in her hit, “Hit Me With Your Best Shot.” The musicianship is fantastic in both her and her song, but because it is so popular and it’s the only song the majority of people know, that’s why it is placed down so low.
