Gonna have to say "I Wanna Rock", I usually can't stand the music of Twisted Sister, but their gimmick is so hilariously stupid that it's hard for me not to like this song.

Next you should pick Foreplay/ longtime by Boston and Let there be Rock by AC-DC.

FAIL. Those are both from the 70's.

Lol, when I first heard "I Wanna Rock", I thought he was saying "I want a rock". Made me think of those &quotet rock" things from the 70's...

From 11 pages to 7.
Keep in mind that posts containing the counted votes could be less frequent, and should actually include something more than "yep", because without the votes, it is pretty much spam. Even with the votes it might be.
And all the "song hands down" and stuff should be changed into "song hands down because [insert why here]".
Kthnx.

With that over, I will say "Free Falling", mainly because the melody is more catchy and likeable than "About a Girl". They are not the best I have heard either of them, but at least I can handle the melody of the one I picked. And the chorus is somewhat catchy.

My vote goes to Free Falling because A) I don't like Nirvana, and B) I prefer the style of Free Falling better than About A Girl.

I'll vote for Free Falling. There are a bunch of Nirvana songs I like better than Free Falling probably, but between these two songs I'll take Tom Petty just because I like singing along to it, lol.

I vote Free Falling. Nirvana can't beat Tom Petty in his own game. I don't really like any Nirvana songs, and I'm a huge Tom Petty fan, so there's my vote for you.
