'Bohemian Rhapsody'.

The 'rockin' part' rocks a alot more then its counter-part in 'stairway'.

Just so you know though I am majorly biased in Queens favor. I consider them one of the top bands of all time and I even like Queen over the Beatles and Rolling Stones.

I would choose Stairway, but I love the complexity of Bohemian Rhapsody, and it's hard not to pick the driving song from Wayne's world.

I'm not a Led Zep fan in general, but I did devote at least 5 years of my life to being Queen's biggest fan, so my choice is obvious.

Although I'd say that "The Prophet's Song" is way better than BoRhap.

I love the vocal solo on The Prophet's Song, I think that's what makes it my favourite off of Night at the Opera.

Obviously Bohemian Rhapsody. At least until the Muppets release a version of Stairway to Heaven.

Without Stairway to Heaven there likely wouldn't be any Bohemian Rhapsody.

They're both crescendos, they both start out with soft vocal parts, tightens up with a drum part in the middle, then leads into a grungy break-out.

Bohemian Rhapsody is cool for its vocal complexity.

Stairway to Heaven is cool for its instrumental complexity.

Both bombastic and amazing, but the Zep tune is more whimsical. Love it.
