‘Stairway To Heaven’ — Led Zeppelin
Led Zeppelin’s “Stairway to Heaven” is considered the groundbreaking recording of the group in 1971 and was indeed a significant success in the Ranker group that it was ranked as their seventh-best song. Planet Rock readers voted it the most excellent rock song of all moments. Although it was not extensively released in the U.S. as one alone, it was the most widely known song in the 1970s on FM radio stations, having shown the adverse effect of the growing audience of the group.
