Two of Zeppelin's most popular songs. Both long and epic and stuff. Kashmir for me

I would say both. I know in the past many people in PA said they didn't like Kashmir, so I'm voting for that one. Both are just... perfect. |

| If I'll try and avoid the extreme popularity Stairway has and just think about the songs objectively....I'll go with Stairway. |

I'll go with Kashmir. Both great songs, but I think I may have heard Stairway too much. Love the hypnotic feel of Kashmir. ------------- Ultimately bored by endless ecstasy! |

Really tough to decide. "Stairway To Heaven" is probably the prettiest track they ever did. On the other, "Kashmir" is probably the best of their experimental rockers. I'm sorry, it's impossible for me to vote. My choice would probably come down to what I'm more in the mood to listen to. ------------- He looks at this world and wants it all... so he strikes, like Thunderball! |

Stairway suffers from excess of popularity, a bit like what happens with Kansas Dust In The Wind and tracks like that. Because of that I currently enjoy Kashmir more, but I vote for Stairway, I think it is a slightly better song.

"No stairway? Denied." I still have to go for Stairway to Heaven, even if it is impossible to take it seriously in certain contexts, like guitar shops. |

| Kashmir- but the version played on the Page/Plant No Quarter album, with the whirling Dervishes and all the middle-eastern instrumentation in the middle. |
