We have made it to the FINALS to determine the GREATEST opening song of the LED ZEPPELIN album discography.

You are going to pick the song that you think is the "Weakest Link" after 2 days I remove the the song with the most votes, and the remaining song is our CHAMPION.

Led Zeppelin - Good Times Bad Times (ELIMINATED ROUND 3)
Led Zeppelin II - Whole Lotta Love
Led Zeppelin III - Immigrant Song
Untitled - Black Dog (ELIMINATED ROUND 2)
Houses of the Holy - The Song Remains The Same (ELIMINATED ROUND 2)
Physical Graffiti - Custard Pie (ELIMINATED ROUND 1)
Presence - Achilles Last Stand (ELIMINATED ROUND 3)
In Through the Out Door - In The Evening (ELIMINATED ROUND 1)

We will not include CODA - We're Gonna Groove..... since it was essentially a rarities compilation album..

    Guess I'm the first vote against IS.
    It's a hopeless situation...

    This may be a close vote.
    I wish I was a sacrifice, but somehow still lived on.

    Protest vote. The best song on this list is ALS and it’s not even really close.

    Whole Lotta Love
    Whole Lotta Love has a better groove to come in on, but that breakdown slow part is what dumps it for me. Immigrant Song is a banger from start to finish.

    Close but WLL is a monster and extra credit for Ben Harper killing this song

    I will decide tomorrow after more thought. I keep fluctuating back and forth between the two. This is madness, I tell ya.

    This was tough. I actually prefer Whole Lotta Love between the two songs, but Immigrant Song, as an opener, just hits you a ton of bricks within seconds....while WWL kinda builds with the riff and vocal before the drums come in.

    The first 1:30 of Song Remains the Same alone is better than either choice imo.
