Rock Anthems

Rock is usually at its biggest and best when it’s insistent and there’s nothing more insistent than the rock anthem, the kind of song that has stirred up and fired up audiences in stadiums around the world. A rock anthem is a powerful, celebratory rock song with arena-rock sound often with lyrics celebrating rock music itself and simple sing-a-long choruses, chants, or hooks. This Windows Store Application, collects several of these anthems, spanning over six decades of Rock 'n' Roll. These Rock Anthems were chosen for their popularity as a rock anthem, music, lyrics, and originality after intensive research on YouTube, Billboard, VH1, MTV, SongFacts.com and Wikipedia. There are 152 immortal rock videos, featuring precious archive footage from the vaults and where possible, brand new footage of the bands in concert today. Everything collected here is certainly passionate and urgent and plays big, which, come to think of it, is probably the base definition of what a rock anthem is. From Elvis Presley to Bob Dylan, from The Rolling Stones to Led Zeppelin, from Queen to Pink Floyd - this application offers up more Rock Anthems than any other similar-themed collection.

“Until I realized that rock music was my connection to the rest of the human race, I felt like I was dying, for some reason, and I didn't know why“ ~ Bruce Springsteen
