I am torn.

Both classics, both very simple melodies, done brilliantly.

I am marginally drawn to what I think was one of my own choices.

I my not-so-humble opinion. Neither truly qualifies as "Rock".

But "Stairway to Heaven" is such a classic, that I am sure I will lose that argument in most discussions.

As for "Long and Winding Road", I only really like it when I am drunk and feeling melancholy.

Then I try and sing along, and people through stuff at me.

There's a lady who's sure all that glitters is gold

And she's buying a stairway to heaven.

When she gets there she knows, if the stars are all close

With a word she can get what she came for.

Ooh, ooh, and she's buying a stairway to heaven.

Ooh, it makes me wonder,
