As corny as they are, I’m a sucker for “anthem” type songs…rock and country. Songs that seem purpose-made for drunken singalongs and beers lifted high at the bar. That said, I don’t know that many that I really like, because lots of songs try be be anthems, but turn out saccharine or just not a good tune.

I think these are among the best anthem type songs in rock and country history (Billy Joel is not here, IMO)
  • Hey Jude
  • You Never Even Called Me by My Name, D.A.C.
  • Freebird, Lynyrd Skynyrd (duh)
  • London Homesick Blues
  • All The Young Dudes, Mott the Hoople
  • Beer, Bait & Ammo, KF
  • Don’t Look Back in Anger, Oasis
  • Sweet Caroline, Neil Diamond
What’s missing? Probably lots
