Well EF it's only a personal opinion, but I'll take "Since I've Been Loving You", "Ramble On", "Kashmir" and "Achilles Last Stand" for a kick off.:D

Stairway To Heaven - Led Zeppelin no contest.

Played out or not...it's still a great song.

''Bohemian Rhapsody'' was annoying from the first listen.

''Nothin' really matters to me'' really sums up Freddie's sad tragic life.



Edit: Worst song of the 20th Century - Bohemian Rhapsody

I just saw the question in the poll. :heheh:

Stairway to Heaven has never done an awful lot for me, I like it enough but it's never really hit the spot in a big way, there's plenty of Zep songs I prefer much more. Bohemian Rhapsody, I loved from the first listen, I've gone off it a bit now purely because it's been played to death & I've received major overkill from it but this is a song that most definitely blew me away everytime I heard it for many years.

Took the Stairway... Love Bo Rap though as it is like a Broadway play that ended up in a rock song.

I went with "other" simply because, while I like both songs, they're not my favorite by either band. For Zeppelin I'd go with either "Thank You" or "The Rain Song". For Queen it would be "Liar" or "Tie Your Mother Down".

I am a big Queen fan, but Stairway To Heaven is a fantastic song to me. While I prefer many, many Queen songs over Led Zeppelin songs. I think I'm going to have to go with Stairway To Heaven, I've still got a poster of that song up in my room.

I'll Take Stairway To Heaven By Dolly Parton.. Just kidding..
Both songs seem to end up playing somewhere..
I'll pass on this one since they both are by great groups but who ever thought these two songs would never get old, had a brain fart..

Stairway......always thought Queen were far too 'campy' to be taken seriously......though May was a brilliant guitar player.
