Second - "Gimme Three Steps", Third - "Free Bird" (my wife absolutely hates this song, and I have no idea why not - she withheld that from me until after we were married, lol). I've always liked the intro and tune of "Sweet Home Alabama" - and I "turn it up", haha, but not being from those parts it never really roused any passion. I like the song, "Please Come To Boston" (Dave Loggins) but honestly don't know what the attraction would be.

Sweet Home Alabama is pretty overplayed down here. Yeah I like the song and all, but just go out in public and you'll hear it twice.

Also the University of Alabama has hijacked the song... Every asshole who roots for Alabama adds "roll tide roll" into the chorus. Being an Auburn fan, that turns me off.

They've also hijacked "Dixieland Delight" by Alabama... That one's real classy haha. I won't post it here, but their version can be found.

They're animals.

Off the top of my head, Simple Man, Ballad of Curtis Low(pretty sure I spelled that incorrectly), Tuesday’s Gone. I know I’m forgetting a few.

On a separate note, this Mom’s basement dwelling full grown adult man child I work with asked me if I liked Led Zeppelin or Lynyrd Skynyrd better, I replied that’s apples to oranges but I’ll take Skynyrd. Less caterwauling. He disagreed and probably went home and listened to Zeppelin on his Mom’s record player.
