OF THE ONES LISTED,...I would say Bohemian Rhapsody by Queen, the list seems very "Rock" orientated? Like anything though these lists are subjective, (TIME magazine chose Bob Marley & The Wailers' "Exodus" as the greatest album of the 20th century....its great but the GREATEST album of a century?....) I just made VH1's 100 greatest love songs and they I think got it right in the sense that, although there are a few I do not like they covered pretty much all genres included on the list are songs such as:

POISON....Every rose has its thorn, CHRIS ISAAK ....Wicked Game, LL COOL J... I need Love, FRANK SINATRA...Fly me to the moon ...I think the Number 1 of WHITNEY HOUSTON... I will always love you ..is a good choice

I don't like any of them. I haven't even heard some: Bohemian Rhapsody, Smells like Teen Spirit, Stairway to Heaven, and Hotel California. The rest I got sick of hearing all the time when they were popular.

Out of these - Zeppelin, Queen, Stones. Hendrix close behind. But, none of these would make my favorite top 3 list.

I saw the Eagles perform Hotel California for the very first time in concert years and years ago in Chicago.

Bohemian Rhapsody (though I don't think it's the best Queen song),

I wouldn't call any of them my favourites. That's not to say that I don't like them. They're all good tunes. Most of them have gotten far too much radio play over the years. Some of the artists I quite like, but would have selected different tunes as my favourites by those artists.

Bohemian Rhapsody is my favourite Queen song. I'm just not that big of a fan of Queen. I don't own any of their albums. I do have two Led Zeppelin albums and one each for the Beatles, Jimi Hendrix and the Rolling Stones.

I only picked one, Like A Rolling Stone by Bob Dylan. It takes me back to my hitchhiking days. I also like Dylan's song Tangled Up in Blue from the LP Blood On the Tracks, for the same reason.

I should mention that All Along the Watchtower was also written by Bob Dylan, not Jimi Hendrix. Hendrix made it famous though.

I like them but they are NOT my favorites. I do not like most songs by the mainstram groups or artists and these are all pretty much mainstream.

Many of them may be "mainstream" now, but folks like Dylan and Jimi Hendrix were definitely not "mainstream" when they did some of their best work.

LOL I was more into The Crazy World of Arthur Brown, Steppenwolf, the Doors, back then. Now into Goth bands and some Heavy Metal like Lordi, Manowar and Hammerfall.

Very good thanks. I bought an oxygen stone and starved both of them for three days. I am also feeding them pellets instead of flakes, which should decrease the amount of air bubbles they are sucking in.
