Beautiful Loser (1975). This song came out in the year of my high-school graduation. I never liked it. It seemed simplistic, and not nearly hard enough for my headbanging friends and me. I learned how to play it yesterday on my acoustic guitar, and I must say that I have a newfound appreciation for Bob Seger as a songwriter and singer. The chords are quite beautiful.
