Greatest genre of music every, when used in a broader sennse to include some hair bands and 80's metal. This means you can count Led Zeppelin, AC/DC, Gn'R, Pink Floyd and such, but also bands like Motley Crue, Metallica, Iron Maiden, and Judas Priest.
oh wait, everyone's forgotten THE WHO. Which is odd, since they're as great as all the other bands listed here. Put on Who's Next or Tommy and you'll be reminded.

"Real gangsta in da house", u r probably THE biggest faggot i have ever seen. after reading ur definition for classic rock, i was thinking, "wtf is this bullshit?!?!"
First of all, Led Zepppelin didn't invent metal and P. Shitty is not better than led zeppelin. You said it yourself,"I haven't heard them", fucking posuer...
Second of all, elvis didn't create rock; rock was created by the black man(I forget his name), dumbass...
Third of all, rap is not superior to rock, rap is bullshit, and i'm not a racist for disagreeing, i mean, after all, i hate all white rappers out there too
Fourth of all, Swearing doesn't help music to be actual music, and since your dad likes pink floyd im guessing he's white, which means ur an oreo
Fifth of all, u must be confused because OLD music is good and the NEW stuff sucks
Sixth of all, computer generated music is the opposite of music because it takes COMPUTER talent to make(it might not even take talent
), not MUSICAL talent
Seventh of all, most rock and metal is not about satan and drugs
Plus, i read your other definitions and they all prove that ur an even bigger fag than your "classic rock" definition makes you. Nu Metal sucks balls, so old metallica is by far better than new metallica(See New Metallica). MTV sucks balls too(see MTV Rocks for what "Real gangsta in da house" said), and that jimi hendrix that u have'nt seen on MTV was the greatest guitarist ever and he was black. And it's true that MTV is killing music, if not, it already has. Not rap is not for these "filthy gawth"s u speak of. U say u dont know wat a posuer (<- that is how its really spelled) is but u use it to make fun of people u don't like, which makes YOU a bigtime posuer
Now for the definition:
Classic rock is basically any rock(excluding Metal)from the 80's and earlier. Classic Metal is metal from the 80's and earlier

a phrase commonly used in the english language, but is not actuly a word. classic is defined as "of the first or highest quality, class, or rank: a classic piece of work." and rock in the form it needs to be stated for this defention is "to move or sway to and fro or from side to side". so it tells us that classic rock is the best music

A genre of music which spanned from about the early 1960's, starting with British Invasion Rock and The Beatles, to as late as the mid 90's, by which time most of "the greats" had died.
Classic rock is remembered and revered by most in society as the grounds for all forms of rock, many of which can be linked to a specific classic rock band, such as Metal to AC/DC, and Psychadelic Rock to Pink Floyd.
There is some descrepancy as to which bands are Classic Rock bands, and which bands were simply the first in their own area. some people group british invasion rock bands, such as the beatles and the who, seperately from Classic Rock, but most include them.
Many Classic rock songs are recognized by youth today, who dont even realize that someone actually CREATED such amazing music, and in some cases children actually believe that Classic Rock song exist from their "sheer awesomeness"
Each Classic Rock band has a distinct style, making the genre incredibly diverse and experimental, unfortunately, while the exact date of the end of Classic Rock is debated (some place it as early as the late 70's to as late as the death of Freddie Mercury in 1991) it is a general consensus that Classic Rock is no longer in the making, and while it may be listened to forever, will not progress any further than it already has

A sub-genre of Rock & Roll. Classic Rock is roudy and sexual enough to be Rock & Roll, yet retains much blues inluence and song structure. (Rock was pretty much created from Blues.)
Classic rock was popular throughout the '60s and '70s and then mostly dissappeared in the '80s; replaced with Hair Metal, for some reason which I've yet to understand, as Hair Metal is simply awful.
All of Rock's best guitarists are Classic Rockers. (Jimi Hendrix, Eric Clapton, Carlos Santana, Jimmy Page, Stevie Ray Vaughan, David Gilmour, etc. etc.)

I used to listen to the stuff you hear on the radio, but my dad introduced me to some awesome old Classic Rock bands.
