"You rock!"

"Something rules!"

What are the meanings of the two sentences?

Dear Hly2004,

It is my opinion that «you rock» expresses approbation. It is also my opinion that it is an American expression.

I have seen «something rules, OK». It expresses humorously the predominance of the «something». It is sometimes written on walls.

Kind regards, Smile [:)]
