redface A thousand pardons. Didn't get the setup initially.

Since melodrama indicates "exaggerated emotions" my vote has gotta go to:
"Stairway To Heaven", Led Zeppelin. zzz

I guess Im less sick of "Layla" , assuming that is , youre not talking about the horrid "Unplugged" version. Theyre both classics , but I could go to my grave happily never hearing "Stairway" again.I dug it back in the day...but it is way too overplayed.And I LOVE Led Zeppelin.
