Classic rock hate thread (hexbear.net)

I actually like a lot of classic rock (yes even Hotel California, that solo kicks ass) but there is a lot of bad classic rock too. What do you think the worst classic rock song is? What is the most overrated band or artist? I think Supertramp is mid at best, but Bob Seeger is truly dreadful.

Narrator: "Early rock songs were stolen from Black people."

[old footage rolls]

Presenter: "My next guest has been accused of stealing from the ethnic community, but I think that's wholly unjustified. Elvis, everybody!"

Elvis [singing]: "♫ Me and my brothers run away from the cops, from the way we look we know they're gonna stop us... ♫"

Presenter: "Well, that could mean anything..."

Elvis [continuing] "♫ Cause we're Black, Black, Black! ♫"

[presenter groans]
