Ah, man, REO Speedwagon's (my vote) in last place? This is actually my favorite genre of rock, so thanks for creating the poll! [Also, if anybody's a fan of this genre, I have a large playlist of classic AOR/melodic rock songs on Spotify, with the heavy hitters (Journey, Boston, Foreigner, REO Speedwagon, Styx, etc.) and hidden gems (Streets, Shooting Star, Benny Mardones, Planet P Project, Axe, etc.) all present. It has 1,110 songs, including ones Spotify has lost the rights to and aren't playable (at the moment).](https://open.spotify.com/playlist/0DU0CYqX5OCrYHp9QQnf4J)
