I'm the biggest "Eagles" geek there is but "Stairway To Heaven" holds up better over time

Yep. The guitar solo at the end even 30+ years is just amazing.

Would agree with Both of you. Huge fan of Both, Have seen Both Live......

But Stairway to Heaven draws the Lean.... and guess it has more meaning to me growing up.

In one of the Hard Rock Hotel elevators, on one of the hand rails is etched, "and she's buying a stairway to heaven"

Hate both of these songs. That Hotel California has to be one of the most overrated songs of all time.

And Led Zeppelin, don't see how anyone can still be fan of them knowing they ripped off most of their songs.

Hotel California wins easily for me. The acoustic version is amazing.

Read one time Robert Plant was at Jimmy Page's Scottish Castle Home once owned by Aleister Crowley. Accoding to the article, a mysterious force took over Plant's hand and dictated the words to the song. Don't know if it is true or not, but it does add a sense of intrigue to the classic rock and roll song.
