I've got to know Lynyrd Skynyrd about a month ago. I was blown away by Freebird, and listened to it almost 3 days non-stop. The 4-minute long solo still gives me chills

After twenty years of that song, it gets the same treatment as other overplayed classics; insta-off.


It's almost like the radio stations set out to kill songs by playing them so many times you end up hating them.

Nah, I discovered it on my own, after searching for more songs by the band of the oh so popular sweet home alabama. I found Simple Man, Three Steps and Freebird amazing; and tbh, they never play those songs on the radio here, which is a shame.

Known about this song for ages. One of the few songs that can make me cry. Simple, but oh so effective. It's also the only song I spent longer than 30 mins trying to learn.
