Get the dirty rock music mug.Related Words
A genre of popular rock music that blends adult contemporary and pop rock. Adult contemporary, a genre that blends R&B, electronic, soul, hip hop, pop, disco, hard rock and funk and typically but not all the time produced by a DJ or a composer.
Pop rock is basically a blend of pop and rock and generally uses more acoustic instruments, so, instead of electronic drums or electric guitar, it uses more acoustic guitar or piano. We've defined adult contemporary, we've defined pop rock, going back to rock and roll, all it is it's a blend of adult contemporary and pop rock. In my opinion, top 3 most famous rock and roll artists :
3. Tina Turner
2. Elton John
1. Elvis Presley.
Reading about AC/DC, their main genres are hard rock and blues rock. The band themselves call themselves rock and roll. Rock and roll is in my opinion 100 to 105 times better than normal rock because, let's take an example of a normal rock song, It's My Life by Bon Jovi, it uses electric guitar and maybe some drums, I can barely hear the drumming. Another rock song, The Final Countdown by Europe, again, I hear the guitar mainly and barely drums. A popular rock and roll song, I'm Still Standing by Elton John, it's funky and it has some dance beats to it that make it less rock and more dance, or funk if you like. Another rock and roll song by King Pop Michael Jackson - Beat It, the drumming in the song is more aggressive than hard rock. This song mainly focuses on the beats and focuses less on rock sounding.
Pop rock is basically a blend of pop and rock and generally uses more acoustic instruments, so, instead of electronic drums or electric guitar, it uses more acoustic guitar or piano.

Get the rock and roll music mug.Term used to refer to people who have no musical talent, but due to games such as Guitar Hero and Rock Band, they convince themselves that they can actually play an instrument. This misconception usually makes itself apparent when a Rock-Hero is given a chance to play a the instrument they think they can play, resulting in the Rock-Hero making a spectacle of themselves while also annoying the instruments owner and nearby people. The most cummon instruments are drums, bass, or guitar.
Example1:
Guy1: "Dude, what the hell are you doing with that guitar?"
Guy2: "Bro, I play Rock Band all the time, I figure the movements were real enough... I figured I could hammer out a simple tune"
Guy1: "Well you might be a Rock-Hero Musician... But you were wrong. Invest in guitar lessons, not Rock Band expansions"
Example2:
Dude1: "O.k, you been banging those drums for 10 minutes, I've yet to hear a beat."
Dude2: "I'm a pro Rock-Hero Musician!!"
Dude1: "What? Rock-Hero Musician? That's the most retarded thing I've heard, aside from people who choose to play recorder. I bet that just like recorder players, you'll never get laid for that skill."

Get the Rock-Hero Musician mug.a musical based on the songs by the legendary rock band Queen. often shortened to WWRY.
The time is the future, in a place that was once called Earth. Globalisation is complete!
Everywhere, the kids watch the same movies, wear the same fashions and think the same thoughts.
It's a safe, happy, Ga Ga world. Unless you're a rebel. Unless you want to Rock. On Planet Mall all musical instruments are banned. The Company Computers generate the tunes and everybody downloads them. It is an age of Boy Bands and of Girl Bands. Of Boy and Girl Bands. Of Girl Bands with a couple of boys in them that look like girls anyway. Nothing is left to chance, hits are scheduled years in advance.
Caught in a landslide, no escape from reality
But Resistance is growing. Underneath the gleaming cities, down in the lower depths live the Bohemians. Rebels who believe that there was once a Golden Age when the kids formed their own bands and wrote their own songs. They call that time, The Rhapsody.
Open your eyes, look up to the skies and see
Legend persists that somewhere on Planet Mall instruments still exist. Somewhere, the mighty axe of a great and hairy guitar god lies buried deep in rock. The Bohemians need a hero to find this axe and draw it from stone.
Is the one who calls himself Galileo that man?
He’s just a poor boy. From a poor family
But the Ga Ga Cops are also looking for Galileo and if they get him first they will surely drag him before the Killer Queen and consign him to oblivion across the Seven Seas of Rye.
Who is Galileo? Where is the Hairy One's lost axe?
Where is the place of living rock?
Anywhere the wind blows
