My first choice for best Rock song of all time will have to be.... Song name - Simpleman Artist Name - Shinedown Link to the song's video - http://youtu.be...  Con I take your Lynyrd and meet you with a Skynyrd. Song Name - That Smell Arist Name - Lynyrd Skynyrd |

Pro Song name - Pour some sugar on me Artist name - Def Leppard Con Here is an epic by Frank Zappa that is even less subtle. It's a song about Terry Bozzio(the drummer at the time.. He's actually singing and drumming at the same time) falling in love with a photograph of the very effeminate looking guitarist of another rock group. Lyrics are borderline obscene, and the musicianship is amazing, more so when you realize that this is a live recording... Song- Punky's Whips Artist- Frank Zappa |

Con It was hard to pick something by him... I could have picked something obvious.. My first choice was "Power of Soul" off of band of gypsies for the intro alone, which is completely ball shattering, but went with this instead due to it being a better song overall in my opinion. This is a pretty underrated track off of "Electric Ladyland" Song- Come (Let The Good Times Roll) Artist- Jimi Hendrix |

Con This next one I shouldn't have to explain. If you can't feel the rock in it, you're probably dead on the inside. Song- The Ocean Artist- Led Zeppelin |
 |
|
Pro Artist - KISS Song - Rock n' Roll All Night Con Song- Won't Get Fooled Again Artist- The Who My fellow apostle of the rock neglected to give his opinions of the songs I put up, so my last words to everyone are.. If it sounds and/or feels rockin' to you, it is! |

Reasons for voting decision: Pro knocks it out of the park on every round. I like the original "Simple Man" better, but the cover isn't bad at all. Con comes close in round one, but the rest are no contest. Big win for pro.

Reasons for voting decision: Justin basically went for cheesy 80s and 90s haircut pop rock. Alfonzo had classics from Led Zep, Hendrix and The Who. No contest.

Best Rock Song Eva
I'm honestly shocked I don't have any votes though, even though there was so much more I wanted to put in there(No Stones, no Sabbath, no Rush, no room! gaaah).
I could have swapped out maybe 2 of them. Still like my list more, but hey, it's my list. >,>
