Ever changing list but this is a haunting classic. I like this version with a full orchestra which was done for a movie soundtrack..

Since you like Zeppelin and might go to shows, if not familiar with them, you might be on the look-out for the ZoSo tribute band. They have been together for around twenty-five (25) years and are considered to be one of (if not THE) BEST Zeppelin shows out there. I've seen them around ten (10) times in Louisville, Cincinnati, Columbus, Covington and Lexington and have never been disappointed. Very authentic and professional two-hour show. Check out some videos and see what you think. They are touring now.
If you go, ENJOY THE SHOW !!!

Baba O Riley comes to mind immediately but honestly there are so many great songs out there very hard to pick
Same here. I wouldn't know where to start or how to narrow it down. I can't even narrow it down to one band or artist.
So many great VH tunes
Ain't Talking Bout Love
RWTD
Hot For Teacher
etc etc etc
The Playing for Change video of The Weight is awesome, as is When the Levee Breaks
That group is the bomb, and tbh, although I am now in my 60s, I listen to ten times more modern songs than the old classic stuff that has been flogged to death 10,000 times, e.g., Lord Huron, Talk, Florence & the Machine, Yeah Yeah Yeahs, etc.
Backstreets one of his underated old songs but listen to Western Stars album way more than Born to Run
Three of my favorites as well..and many folks don't know them.
Nothing Else Matters-Metallica; Wild Horses-the Stones. Werewolves of London-Warren Zevon. and it's not really a rock tune but what the heck, "If You Could Read My Mind" by the under appreciated Gordon Lightfoot.
Most of those Playing for Change videos are well done and awesome.
Manfred Mann Blinded by the Light.
Singing it around the house when I was a kid I thought it was "wrapped up like a douche"![[laughing]](http://l.yimg.com/j/assets/img/emoticons/classic/laugh.r191677.gif "Laughing [laughing]")

I have a tie and its always the same.
Bohemian Rhapsody by Queen
Back in Black by AC/DC
Freddie was a musical genius and AC/DC was simply AC/DC.

Dream Police by Cheap Trick is epic. Listening to Best of...
Great song! That band is from my friend's home town. He served the band at the McDonald's drive thru when he was in high school (Zander and Neilsen at least).
Cheap trick was my morning favorite two days ago, but for THIS one
This morning it will be 3 favorites of my friend from Rockford IL (who saw your post @niteshift) plus a few home town favorites by Cheap Trick like Want You To Want Me
Starting with this one

American pie- Don McLean
Foreplay/Longtime- Boston
Dancing Queen- ABBA ( probably not rock)

Chicago before Terry Kath died was innovative and incredible. CTA is still one of my all time favorite studio recordings.
