What Beach Boys's song brings Paul McCartney to tears? What makes "Light My Fire" a rite-of-passage song for teens in every generation, according to Doors guitarist Robby Krieger? What is it about music that brings back so vividly the passion of our early loves, our deepest losses, our richest memories? Acclaimed music journalist Steve Baltin examines twenty-nine iconic songs of modern music to ultimately answer: what transforms a song into an anthem? How did these songs become such a part of our culture? Featuring original interviews with superstar musicians like the Beach Boys, Shania Twain, and Earth, Wind & Fire, this book offers a detailed celebration of songwriting, fan connections, memorable live performance, and more. A must-have anthology for music fans, Anthems We Love showcases the most beloved and popular songs of all time, including Neil Diamond's "Sweet Caroline," the Jackson 5's "ABC," Aerosmith's "Walk This Way," and TOTO's "Africa." Sit in on the songwriting sessions, the backstage conversations, the thought and heart behind the songs that have shaped you over the years-even as you have made them your own.
