For this list, I'm talking about songs, not Rock star who play piano. A few ground rules: A "Piano Rocker" is NOT a power ballad. I'm also not talking about songs that simply feature some great piano playing. I'm talking about songs totally driven by the piano line or riff. And by piano, I mean an acoustic piano or something that sounds like an acoustic piano, NOT simply a keyboard or organ riff. That narrows down what I can choose from a bit, and I think I even broke my own rules on a couple of these, but I think I have a decent list, so let's get started:
