For a long time I've considered these two the peak of songwriting in classic rock, but I'd have a hard time arguing that Stairway to Heaven isn't equally as well written, if not better. I think your list is fine in terms of historical significance as hits, but none of the listed tracks overwhelm me like the two above.

Hotel California is such an amazing song.

Disagree on this one. I love Whole Lotta Love, but Satisfaction is so boring.
