    I just need six more people to vote for "Stairway to Heaven." If I had time, I'd start a petition.

    Everyone who voted "Going to California" must know that it's way more solid of a track than "Stairway to Heaven." Plus, they didn't steal it from another band (or at least they weren't caught; you never can tell with Jimmy Plage).

    STH is really an amazing song... but it is one of the most overplayed songs in the history of music. I think some people find it next to unlistenable just because of that. I know that's why I've chosen it in this round. But man, back in the day, when I wasn't old enough for it to have been overplayed in my life, I basically worshiped it.

    Going to California again in this round. Can't get on board with some of the hate for Black Dog here. Classic tune, and one of Jimmy's best solos.

    Zeppelin is still unsurpassed as a rock band, in my eyes.

    Fuck yeah, you haven't lived if you haven't danced and thrashed around a kitchen with friends to this song in the throes of a deep buzz.
