I'm down with "Who do you Love," mostly because it's been covered so manny times.

"Freebird" is one of my candidates for worst rock song ever. Right up there with "Dude Looks Like a Lady" and "Cold as Ice" and "Sister Christian."

"Stairway to heaven" sux. Give me "Achillie's Last Stand."

But best song ever? I'm going with "Atom Heart Mother."

Rock - Right now - Van Halen
Rap - Bring the noise - Anthrax + P.E
Ever - The Trooper - Iron Maiden

Rock: ‘Sweet Home Alabama’ - Lynyrd Skynyrd

Rap: I was going to pass on this one, but then I saw shavixmir’s Dylan song, and it was indeed proto-rap, so I’ll second that one

Ever: ‘Jambalaya’ is the best songwriting (thank you, Hank Williams, Sr.); I have recordings of it by at least half a dozen groups, but Gerry and the Pacemakers did the definitive version

Rock: Locomotive Breath (Jethro Tull)
Rap: Rapture (Blondie)
Ever: Burning Down The House (Talking Heads)
