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.

Get the Classic Rock mug."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

Get the classical allusion mug.As a historical period, it is the period of time between about 1750 and 1815. The beginning of the classical period of music was marked by the death of Johann Sebastian Bach. It is characterized by very simple melody lines over a basic accompaniment, often utilizing motifs and sequencing with strict structure and form applied. The Grand Daddy of the classical era is considered to be Joseph Haydn, who has been given the nickname's "Father of the String Quartet", and "Father of the Symphony". Ludwig van Beethoven is also a prolific composer from this period of music, though Beethoven is given more credit for being the leader of the transition into the Romantic period, due to his odd ways of composition which became noticeable has he lost his hearing.
In general terms, classical is used to characterize music written before what is considered to be the contemporary genre of music, specifically music written before 1915. Suffice it to say that it takes an enormous amount of skill to be a classically trained musician. Listen to the Chopin Scherzo in B-flat Minor, or the Beethoven "Waldstein" Sonata. For more recent "classical", listen to Prokofiev, or even the wonderful Gyorgy Ligeti, who died recently in 2006. Classical music is very much alive and it is the reason we have the music we have today. And don't do what a stupid youtuber did once and tell someone opera sucks, therefore Justin Bieber has more skill than a Soprano soloist singing Mozart operas.
