Jefferson Starship Count On Me

If it's not, it's not lacking much. Great song.

This is a beautiful acoustic version, starting around 0:26.

Thanks for posting that; now I have two versions to listen to.

What I also like; in addition to a great melody and arrangement; is that it's so uplifting--for a secular song.

Hard to choose just one for the top classic rock song. I'll go with these 2.

The most memorable opening guitar riff of all time.

The signature song from a Nobel Prize winner.

Not for me. I'd say that it would be found in the works of (in no particular order) The Who, Humble Pie, The Animals, Zep, Head East, James Gang, Jeff Beck, Johnny Winter, Creme, The Doors, The Beatles, Allman Bros., Skynerd, The Stones, Buffalo Springfield...

I think the best classic rock song would need to be Styx "Show Me the Way". So true about finding one's purpose and truth in life.

My submission:

Love wins, with an unforgettable riff.
