Ok then. Here's some of my favourite bands/artists that i like....

April Wine, Journey, Def Leppard, Europe, Firehouse, Kansas, Van Halen, Deep Purple, Whitesnake, Rainbow, Pink Floyd, REO Speedwagon..... The list goes on and on though.

listen to cochise by audioslave

then read the words

its amazing

its how i feel about life

April Wine's "Just Between You And Me", is one that i listen to over and over again. Its a Classic Soft Rock for me.

Same is the case with Kansas' "All I Wanted."

Whitesnake's "Here I Go Again", pretty much reflects my kind of life right now. This not only is my all time Top 10 favourite, if i could list one, but is a song that i associate myself with so much.

If you will permit, let me quote a few lines, from that song.....

"I don't know where I'm going
But, I sure know where Ive been
Hanging on the promises
In songs of yesterday
An Ive made up my mind,
I ain't wasting no more time.

Though I keep searching for an answer,
I never seem to find what I'm looking for
Oh lord, I pray
You give me strength to carry on,
cos I know what it means
To walk along the lonely street of dreams.

I'm just another heart in need of rescue,
Waiting on loves
sweet charity
An I'm gonna hold on
For the rest of my days,
cos I know what it means
To walk along the lonely street of dreams.

And here I go again on my own
Goin' down the only road I've ever known,
Like a drifter I was born to walk alone
An Ive made up my mind
I ain't wasting no more time."

Deep Purple is no stranger to anyone here, i suppose. But my pick of their lot are these two softer versions.....

"Wasted Sunsets" and "Soldier Of Fortune".

As For Rainbow, who could forget the classic "Temple Of The King".

"Shine"-The Morning Of

I just listened to a couple of their songs. They seem pretty fun!

I just listened to a couple of their songs as well. I like them.

Another recommendation I have is Howie Day. He has a style similar to Matt Nathanson. Sunny, you might like him.

I do like Howie Day actually. I don't have much of his stuff but I should get some.

I also think you'd like Snow Patrol. These 2 songs are my favourites from them.

If you like great guitar work & diversity check out Ana Popovic's "Still Making History".

Trent Reznor - Nine Inch Nails
Chad Kroeger - Nickleback
Serj Tankian - System of a Down, Axis of Justice
Justin Furstenfeld - Blue October

Should get you started, have more too.

Thanks. I've heard most of those. I hope the Flobots have better songs than Handlebars, though.
