    Immigrant Song


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

    I do love that Temple of the Dog covered it on the tour.  It was a ballsy thing to go after.  They screwed up the first interlude a little and Stone shakes his head like... damn that was hard... But after that they killed it.

    This one hurt. But I just listened to both. They are both so amazing, but Immigrant Song got more into my head today.

    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. 
    I agree with you 100%.  WLL is my favorite between the two... however the big hard PRIMAL entrance of IS jolts and overpowers me to the core immediately.

    The breakdown in WLL and if you have a good pair of headphones, is just pure ear candy.

    I normally enjoy watching who votes for what and reading discussions.. but this one for me is REALLY hard. I'm leaning towards WLL, but I go back and forth.

    Yep, for sure. Those were my intro to non-radio LZ songs and performances.

    Edit: I should say non modern rock radio LZ.
