Rock song? Who said Brothers in Arms? Honestly.
There can be only one song. ACDC whole lotta Rosie

No idea what the greatest song is, but this should be somewhere near the top:

Iron Maiden – Phantom of the Opera

oh my god….

My head is going to explode.

How, how, how can I suggest my greatest rock song of all time…

Too many sub-genres and decades to choose from…

😯

OK, I’ll have a try…

Queen – Stone Cold Crazy

or

Pink Floyd – Wish You Were Here

or

Metallica – Master of Puppets

or

The Cult – She Sells Sanctuary

or

Nine Inch Nails – Head Like a Hole

or

Aerosmith – Sweet Emotion

or

Motley Crue – Kickstart My Heart

But Should I ignore Bohemian Rhapsody, Immigrant Song, Thunderstruck,Smoke on the Water, Dragula??

The Greatest Rock Song of All time as requested

Behind blue eyes – The Who
Black dog – Led Zep
A National Acrobat – Sabbath
Smoke on the Water – Deep Purple

This may change but i cant pick out a single song

Edit : Time by Pink Floyd? If this was the greatest guitar solo of all time, ‘Time’ would definately be it

I completely forgot

Guns and Roses – Paradise City

Rolling Stones – Paint it Black

Black Betty – Spidebait

Pink Floyd? I like them but a bit too far away from rock on the music spectrum to be allowed on this thread

Nobody going back to the 60’s?

thunderstruck acdc gives me goosebumps if its loud enough gotta be 11 though

llama – but what is rock? Queen are Rock, as are Slayer, as are Pink Floyd, as are Sex Pistols. What is allowed on this thread?

@CG Rolling Stones Paint It Black (’66) is one of my suggestions..

ABBA the greatest rock band in the world.

Everyone sounds the same after ABBA …

There’s been alot of 10 and a halfs, a good few 10 and three quarters and even a couple of 10 63/64…

but there is only one 11

Whats with all the Very Metal stuff? Iron Maiden? Are you 13? 😉

Just think that Pink Floyd (and I do like Pink Floyd) is closer to prog rock than rawwwwk rock

But you nominate what you want, it’s only my opinion.

Radar Love got to be on this album of greats

Smoke on the Water is getting my vote today (but what about Ace of Spades, and what about….)

Categorising music is, like, for squares man.

Sheesh, there’s enough rules out there without making your own up.
Dude.

thats why its so hard to pick one, ‘rock’ covers such a huge area of music. i see where you’re coming from though.

Gimme Shelter – Rolling Stones?

Smashing Pumpkins Stand inside your love

Faith No More From out of nowhere

Crazy Train Ozzy Osbourne simply due to the genius of Randy Rhoads

Ninja edit 😆

Surely to be the GREATEST ROCK SONG EVAH! It should be FARKIN AMAZING!! not just good.

oh god, this is such a bad bad bad thread.

Faith No More, how could I forget them – Falling to Pieces..

@trout – Radar Love – Golden Earring or White Lion? 🙂

Did someone say Christian rock?

[video]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1Vq_WDf6NT0[/video]

My God, their music has aged. 😕

(pun semi-intended)

got to be this one for me
[video]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XwqMKf7r7Xg[/video]

Bo Rap.

Why did this thread even get onto 2 pages?

Definitely Barbie girl by aqua

Phantom in the Valley by Howlin’ Rain.

Judas Priest , Painkiller. Nightranger, Sister Christian. UFO, Profession of Violence. Define Rock genre, To many to mention.

Can’t believe that we’ve got to page 3 and no one has suggested Radiohead’s The Bends. Crank it up and it is absolutely sublime.
Another as yet unsuggested contender is Humble Pie’s version of I Don’t Need No Doctor.
CFH is still right though.

+1 for Led Zep’s Rock and Roll with AC/DC’s Whole Lotta Rosie not far behind

I can’t believe the thread has got this far without the correct answer.

For the next 5 minutes anyway 😀

you think i aint worth a dollar but i feel a million bucks, qotsa 😀
edit; this week!

Some great suggestions.

As an all rounder, I’d maybe suggest My Sharona- The Knack, or More than a feeling – Boston?

My personal favourite is Blackwater Park – Opeth though. It has everything.

Now there’s a contrasting offering!
