Yep that is a great list. I also included Ten Years Gone on my list but eventually took it out, it's my number 6 I guess.

1.  In the evening
2.  In the Light
3.  The Rover
4. Kashmir
5. Carousalembra


Other than Kashmir I realize these aren't your typical LZ tunes but the reason I chose them is because they aren't overplayed like most of the others. Call me unconventional. :P I realize ITTOD is possibly their most hated album but I like it. 

Some alternates:

Stairway to heaven (still a great song)
The Lemon Song
The Rain Song
What is and what should never be
Ten Years Gone

yeah..  I should have made a place for What Is and What Should Never Be.  Always been one of my Zep favorites.. says enough on how little I listen to them anymore that I completely forgot about it. LOL

I'm not that much of a Led Zeppelin fan (at times it's a bit too "testosterone"-like for me), but I do like them and listen to them from time to other. Here is an attempt:

1 "Thank You" (II)
2 "The Battle of Evermore" (IV)
3 "Dazed and Confused" (I)
4 "Ramble On" (II)
5 "No Quarter" (Houses of the Holy)

And of course "Stairway to Heaven" is a great song, it is just overexposed.

I've always had trouble getting into "Since I've been loving you" for some reason. Not sure why. Maybe it's too bluesy for me or something. That said I still think the weakest track on 3 is "hats off to Harper." That's even more of a "head scratcher" for me.

For me it's great, exactly because of how bluesy it is. I don't really know all that much blues, but for what little I know, it is my favourite blues song (yeah, I know, real blues fans would say it's heresy).

This is a tough one for sure.  Especially since it changes a lot for me.  I'll go with this list:
 
1. Tangerine
2. Achilles Last Stand
3. The Rain Song
4. The Song Remains the Same
5. Dazed and Confused.
 
Funny that my favorite album is Physical Graffiti, yet none of the songs from that album are on the top 5.   Hmmmm.......

For me, Sagi’s list is ever so close, but no cigar !! Just replace The Song remains....with Stairway and that’s my top-5 - though I am not the fan I used to be of these guys. I only kept some of their LP’s and don’t spin them often anymore.
