What is your favorite Lynyrd Skynyrd song?

Post by ParaDime77 »

I was on vacation last week and pulled up songs from Skynyrd‘s “Street Survivor.” Just a killer guitar driven output from the band. “I Know A Little” is hands down my favorite Skynyrd song.

How bout youuuu!?

Came here to say that. It's the tits.



Gaine's chops on I Know A Little are just stupid. His picking was so clean.

They have some really good stuff that doesn't get mentioned all that much like "On The Hunt" , "Cry For The Bad Man" and "I Need You".

I have two.
Gimme Three Steps and What's Your Name.
They have so many good songs though, Including all listed above.
I saw someone mention On The Hunt. That's a really good one too.

Came here to mention these EXACT 3 :lol:

On the Hunt is one of their best and most overlooked. My fav Skynyrd songs rotate all the time, but at this moment, it's the 3 above, plus:

Travelin Man
Saturday Night Special
Simple Man
Ballad of Curtis Loew
Cheatin' Woman
Gimme Three Steps
*I kinda want a new screenname. Seriously. I barely watch racing anymore. :x

Hard to pick just one. The addition of Steve Gaines on the last album was a solid move. So for today I’ll pick You Got That Right.

Saturday Night Special.

But it’s hard to hear a classic era Skynyrd tune without thinking, “Goddamn it, I fucking love this song!”

"Diary Of A Madman"
"Aja"
"I’m Bad, I’m Nationwide”
“Sludge Factory”

Those are about the only Skynyrd songs that don't cause me to change the station when they come on. Not sure which one is my favorite.

It's absolutely idiotic to contend Zep weren't A-listers in the 1970s.
