fuck that shit. for sheer scope and bombast, stairway can not be beat.

you're just being a hater. take it from me, i know a thing or two about being contrarian.

Bombast does not = awesome. If that were true, Creed would be the new Zep.

My first CD was Zeppelin IV and I'm here to say, there are few better albums, but many better songs than Stairway. It's a rule of thumb that people whose favorite Led Zeppelin tune is Stairway probably also say their favorite Queen song is "Bohemian Rhapsody." Stairway's still a great tune, but it is probably one of the most overrated classic rock tunes ever, mostly because of the aforementioned sort of people, who don't ever go in for more than superficial understanding of a great band.

(Not to say that this is you. I know for a fact you know your shit.)

Mostly I just wanted to open with a movie reference.
