6 Classic Rock Songs For Millennials
Keith Nelson

Although music has changed in styles and variations over the years, there is one thing that has remained the same, it's message. It can express the deepest of emotions like love or telling a story. My taste in music spreads between a wide variety of genres. With classic rock being on the top of my playlist lately, I present to the millennials some of the best songs your parents use to turn the stereo up to.

1."More Than a Feeling"- Boston

A romantic lover that has more than a feeling about the girl he loves. You can almost hear him as he slips away with her in the music.

2. "Rumors"- Fleetwood Mac

Okay, so this is actually an entire album, but every song is worth a listen. A product of emotional turmoil these classic lyrics speak of heartbreak and betrayal through a uniquely individual sound.

3. "Fortunate Son"- Creedence Clearwater Revival

For those free spirits rebelling against "the system" this song is full of protest against the government and the rules of law.

4. "Bohemian Rhapsody"- Queen

An internal struggle of someone’s mind gone mad with despair, this song will take you through the vast emotional galaxy of the human mind.

5. "Hotel California"- Eagles

Speaking of the vices of human kind, Eagles take on a culture of excess in California and America.

6. "Dream On"- Aerosmith

Live for today and dream on for tomorrow, this song makes you question just what it is like to get old and how one becomes old. Perfect, for millennials as we search for our path in life and "dream on" for the best in tomorrow.

So take a moment, open your playlist, and discover the music that is still speaking volumes today.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
