It was voted my class song in 1998. The song is okay but I think it said nothing for our class so I've held a grudge against the song since then...

Answer:

stole this from wikipedia

"The popular culture cliché of "Free Bird" is the shouting of a request to hear the song by audience members at almost any concert, regardless of the performer or style of music. This can be traced back to Skynyrd's first live album, 1976's One More From The Road. This is due to the fact that Skynyrd did not play the song during the main portion of the concert, or even in the encore performance. Instead they saved it for their second encore. After leaving the stage following the first encore of the concert, the crowd was riled by the apparent omission of Skynyrd's signature song. The crowd then began chanting "Free Bird, Free Bird ...". No one left the auditorium. The band then returned to the stage for a second encore and upon taking the microphone Van Zant asked the crowd, "What song is it that you wanna hear?", which was immediately followed by several more shouts of "Free Bird". This interaction is recorded as an intro to the song on the album, and the band responded with a 14-minute version of the song. More recently, they play the song on the first encore."
