Greatest Lynyrd Skynyrd Songs

If you don't know this song, you don't know the rock! - Teo2390

The solo is absolute madness!

I want to vote for: things going on

Best song I've listened to so far. Great music and great lyrics, and the solo at the end part is definitely one of the best ones I've ever heard. Then I read about everything that happened to the band members and it is so sad. They should've been around much longer

Great song with great message. Simply the best.

Simple Man is astronomically better than Free Bird and Sweet Home Alabama

I can understand SHA topping this, but FREE BIRD? Okay, just... okay.

Simple Man. The song that non-superficial fans of Lynyrd Skynyrd think of when they think about the band. While "Freebird" and "Sweet Home Alabama" are good songs in and of themselves, "Simple Man" is in a league of its own. It says everything that needs to be said, and is a true pouring-out of the heart by Van Zandt. A classic.

Best Song Ever, makes my Heart Melt, just listening to this song takes me to Alabama. This Should be in number one!

Their best song, Also lynyrd Skynyrd’s most popular song. - MegadethFan07

Good classical number... Would like to listen more from this band... Feel great when listen em all alone and sober

This is the best and most popular song, I have never heard about free bird before

This song is beautifully performed, the guitar is very well played, and this song always reminds me of sitting in a car, going along the road while its raining. Once again, this song is amazing and am surprised that this song is not number one.

The only reason this song isn't number one is because nobody has listened to it. A lot of their "online" fan base ( I use that word carefully ) has stumbled across the first 3 songs ( Free Bird, Sweet Home Alabama & Simple Man ). They are great songs in their own perspective but this tune... Is the good stuff.

This is my favorite song of all time. It displays the hardship of loss in such a beautiful way. Ronnie sings mournfully, but still with anticipation of the future. Their best song by far...

Piano solo is great, as well as the guitar. This is Lynyrd's Skynyrd's best song. Sweet Home Alabama is so overplayed and is nowhere near as good instrumentally as Tuesday's Gone.

The culmination of all the unique qualities that made Skynyrd special: The prominent punch of Leon's bass with AP's rolling drums, the genuineness of Ronnie's lyrics, the unbelievable guitar work throughout and the girls singing for emphasis in the background make this song their greatest. The definitive Skynyrd song that NO ONE would even consider attempting to cover, much like Saturday Night Special.

Excellent and energetic

May not be their best, but it is certainly my favorite. I also love Saturday Night Special. - AlteredState

The guitar parts are the best they ever did in my opinion

Ahh... Great song, the first billion times I heard it... But, you can't tell me there aren't at least a dozen greater Skynyrd songs than this... If I never heard "3 Steps" again, I'll be happy.

Should be higher up on list

Greatest song in the world, should be number 1

This song is EXTREEMLY groovy...

JJ Cale wrote it and performed it, but Skynyrd's version rocks it!

This song is the best

"...little girl what's your name? "
Answer: I am a gal named Huh. - Britgirl

Best song

WWE Breaking Point & WWE Smackdown VS Raw 2010 - WWEWBMortalKombatFan

Man listen to this one from their album god guns!
This is absolutely their best and its the most amazing lyrics ever by lynyrd skynyrd!
I'm sure you guys will vote after listening to this one!
Just hear it once!

I love that song. This song makes me something lonely. When I listen to that music, I miss someone. I don't know who is appeared in my mind, boy or girl? I think it may be a girl. I sometimes cry when I listen to that music.

Beautiful lyrics
This is like motivation song. :-)

My favorite song song all time

I love this song. it's a great ballad. - jwileson

That keyboard solo... WOW Billy Powell rocks

Definitely top 5. Great song couldn't ask for more.

It is a really good song. Yet really under rated

This masterpiece is just a little display of Gaines incredible composing potential. Cannot listen to this without feeling goosepimples. Wonderful! Thanks Skynyrd for everything!

Best skynyrd guitar song

I love most all their songs but this one really stands out.

Underrated song, that doesn't get enough air or concert play. But what do I know? All their songs should be played everyday, all the time. Simply awesome!

If you don't think on the hunt is up there and one of the best songs youv ever heard you ain't no fan

So underplayed.. This is like the anthem of any down to earth partier

This is their greatest recording. Steve Gaines was a phenom.

As usual another Skynyrd hit! Great Rock and Roll!

This stuff they are turning out today is CRAP!

I've tried listening to it but there's nothing there! NO BEAT, NO LYRICS,
NO ROCK & ROLL,

Steve Gaines enough said.

Should be in top 5

This is the classic that resonates with me most next to Freebird of course. - theforgiventeen

Great, bluesy opening by Ed, Gary, and Allen

In the top 10!

Good lyrics, great guitars. What else can you ask for in A Skynyrd song.

How is this not top ten? Great tune.

RIP Ed King. You made this song, Saturday Night Special, Sweet Home Alabama, and many others sound great. - Gg2000

That beginning growl is too cool

This song is amayzing! It's way better than sweet home alabama! Please just listen to it and you'll se why it really should be in the top ten!

Such a funky intro! - derekburton9

Why is this song so underrated? It's amazing, one of my favorites on Second Helping. - Metarock

Its an amazing song and it's so true I could live with hound dogs for the rest of my natural born days

Every Lynyrd Skynyrd tune is awesome to me, but Swamp music is just one I was surprised was not listed... WHAT THE FUNK GUYS?

Not one person mentioned SWAMP MUSIC. I am, without a shadow of a doubt, Lynyrd Skynyrd's most dedicated fan of all time.

This needs to at least be somewhere between 11 and 20.

The best song of Lynyrd Skynyrd - ActOfGenesis

Just epic

25th place? You've got to be kidding me, this is without a doubt the best Skynyrd Song the new lineup has ever released.

If you are a fan, I just don't understand why this isn't in the top ten. Embodies everything about the band.

One of the most overlooked songs ever. Once the chorus kicks in...Epic Ronnie.

It is one my personal top 10.

Is the best song

A very underrated song that of course wasn't on the list. This is definitely one of their best modern songs. - ACDC-
