Best song,hooked you on a rock band.....

I remember hearing these in the 70's and they all made very profound impressions-

Styx- Renegade
Heart- Magic Man
Thin Lizzy- The Boys are Back
(for reference, I was about six)

In the 80's it was-

Journey- Stone in Love
Judas Priest- Electric Eye
Metallica- Seek and Destroy
Savatage- Hall of the Mountain King
Accept- Balls to the Wall
Fear- More Beer

90's-

Ministry- Jesus Built My Hotrod
Smashing Pumpkins- Cherub Rock
L7- Shitlist

I recently heard a replay of the top 40 for one of the weeks of 1974.

The Boys are Back, and Heart's Crazy on You were featured.
Those two songs sounded so modern and progressive compared to the other offerings, which included-

Afternoon Delight
Something by Seals and Crofts
Something by the Bay City Rollers
ELO

Which all sounded either late 60's or VERY 70's by comparison.
Heart and Lizzy's songs sounded like they could have been written last month, instead of four decades ago!
