Most epic song?

But to deny Stairway epicness is rather ridiculous.

I'd say it's more legendary than epic.

Hmm, maybe, I am still wondering how one defines something epic...

Stairway is their most epic song.

Oh, just thought of some other epic songs : "All around the world" and "Champagne Supernova", both from Oasis. And I'm not even a, erm, fan but I like these particular songs.

They have an epic feel imo.

And "La Sagrada Familia" from The Alan Parsons Project. Now that's truly an epic song. A little bit too bombastic for my taste however.

I'd say Misty Mountain Hop is definately more epic.

More evocative maybe.

My favorite track at the moment is ammodably epic:

'Auto Rock' by Mogwai.

Check it. One time. Word.

Love Song For a VAmpire - Annie Lennox.
Bo Rhap - Queen

orion by metallica. or master of puppets by the same band

I agree with Paranoid Android, definatly, and like a few people stated most songs by Tool, I think Parabol/a myself though. I'm sure there are probaly some other ones I'm not hitting though.

What is, in your opinion, the most epic song you've ever heard?

By epic I mean in scope or ambition. It doesn't have to be a long song, or it can be. For example: Reflection by Tool or Reise, Reise by Rammstein.

Go.

Good thread, AC. Epic, to me, means that the song must be relatively long and left a mark. Otherwise, what is the definition of an epic journey?

That being said, here goes....

Hey Jude, The Beatles
Layla, Clapton
Hotel California, The Eagles
Stairway to Heaven, Zeppelin
November Rain, GNR

A Fair Judgement by Opeth comes to mind.

Art of Life - X Japan...

Seriously, there's an 8-min piano solo in it.

Crystal Ball - Prince

Metallica "One"

Very good choice.

"The Ecstasy of Gold" by Ennio Morricone. And if I don't hear that song when/if I enter the gates of heaven I'm gonna be very disappointed.

^😂

dope song..

I dont know if it's the most epic but it's pretty epic:

The Mars Volta - Televators
