I think I'm just overexposed to Bohemian Rhapsody. On some level I can appreciate its quality but a few decades* of being told it's the best song ever have me fed up of it. If it comes in the radio, I'd change channels. Whereas if SCoM comes on I think "TUNE!!"
*only a few mind, before anyone says anything cheeky about my age!

Led Zeppelin - Stairway to Heaven - My other remaining nomination which is a classic rock favourite. I like the other tune, but I have to go for this!
The Clash - I Fought the Law - I'm surprised it is still in the contest. Could this be the dark horse...if Metallica's song does not beat it?

That Metallica song is okay, but I am really surprised it got this far. If I was picking a Metallica song, it would have been Enter Sandman.
