Hungry Like the Wolf, Every Breath You Take, Owner of a Lonely Heart.
I wonder if Robert Plant ripped off that Asia song? He has been known to steal their lyrics.

Out of these songs I've only heard 11 but the songs I haven't heard I've listened to samples of and I don't think I'll be changing my vote lol.

Yeah, I have listened to about half of the songs I haven't heard and I think I am sticking with my original three picks.

Yeah, the 90's are going to be very difficult for me, as I am that is my favorite decade in terms of rock music, and it will be very hard for me choose three songs.

I'm the only vote for Rock Of Ages? come on guys!
I also voted for Twilight Zone and Owner of a Lonely Heart, although Owner of a Lonely Heart always makes me think of that one scene in The Break Up
