“Cause I’m free as a bird now, and this bird you cannot change…” Name the song and artist.

It’s not very difficult to name that tune, and everyone knows these lyrics. This song is one of the most widely known songs in the world and is known by the youngest children to the oldest adults. “Free Bird” by Lynyrd Skynyrd is a classic song and has lasted so many generations. The song was originally featured on the band’s debut album in 1973. The song was then re-released as a single in 1974 and the song hasn’t died ever since.

There are plenty other songs that you can think of that have lasted generation after generation. For this upcoming article based on classic music, we need your help.

We’re looking for songs that are sure to span, or already have spanned generations.  Comment below and list any songs that you think deserved to be featured in the classic music article.
