.38 Special provided the worst song ever,(yes, even worse than We Built This City) with Rockin' Into the Night) I've been on a steady diet of Jimmy Webb for some time now who has written some of the greatest songs ever and also one of the worst ever in MacArthur Park. But, I'll forgive that one given all the other great songs including the greatest song ever which is Wichita Lineman. I'm still on the line.

Back to B. Seger- I feel compelled to speak in defense;
Yes, Chevy-Like a Rock is one of the worst corporatization of art, ever. That said the sentimentality, and lament of lost youth in that song is fantastic. If you are 40ish male who has done hard, physical work, you can't, not connect with that song.
There are other similar stories being told- check out "The Ring" with regard to life/marriage not turning out the way you'd like. Or, "In your time" written as a well wish for his child.
When asked what song by another artist, Kid Rock most wished he had written - he answered "Turn the Page"

It's a mandatory update that's being pushed out in stages (from what I read online). I also understand that you can postpone it for a while (a few weeks maybe), but it will get updated eventually.
Tonight I will revert back to the pre-updated version and hope AutoCAD will work.
