Soft rock songs generally tend to focus on themes like love, everyday life and relationships. The genre tends to make heavy use of acoustic guitars, pianos, synthesizer sand sometimes saxophones. The electric guitars in soft rock are normally faint and high-pitched.
Soft Rock begin around 1970s is has been a reaction against the increasingly heavy music (heavy metal,punk rock) that was developing at the time, and also as a reflection of the changing priorities of the Baby Boom-generation. What set 1970s soft rock apart from its 1960s counterpart, which is usually just called "pop", is that in the 1960s' pop artists usually were vocalists who were stylistic throwbacks to the pre-rock era.
Soft rock became hugely popular later in that decade. By 1977, some radio stations, like New York's WTFM and WYNY, had switched to an all-soft-rock format. Around that same time, the band Chicago, which had previously been a jazz-rock band, switched to soft rock and reached their biggest commercial successes. British/American blues band Fleetwood Mac achieved its greatest success after adopting parts of the genre. Even Led Zeppelin, considered by some to be standard bearers of hard rock, flirted with the genre at the time in songs like 1979's "All My Love". By the 1980s, tastes had changed and radio formats reflected this change; the genre evolved into what came to be known as "adult contemporary", a pop categorization that bore less overt rock influence than its forebear.
