both top 10 songs that scratch completely different itches. Leaning fool in the rain but I need to think about this one for a while

I went Black Dog. A different day it could’ve been a different vote.

Black Dog is so overdone for me, at this point. It's kinda like Alive or Evenflow. Great song, I just don't seek it out.

Both have parts that annoy the fuck out of me and they're both overplayed but for a reason. I'm gonna go with Black Dog today.

As I've said before Fool is my personal favorite song of all time.

Self is exactly right - Black Dog is the Even Flow of their catalogue. Fantastic, band-defining and I never need to hear it again.

I'd say the same about "Black Dog." I would have voted for it if it wasn't up against a song that I didn't also think was excellent, but in this matchup its overfamiliarity is a strike against it.

Yep. But Black Dog is great, too. I fully expect it to win this match. But Fool in the Rain wins my heart.

Black Dog is a goddamn rock powerhouse. It is so oddly off kilter; Bonham's drums are fucking BIZARRE. The whole song is just...OFF. And weird. I love it so much.

LV gets it.

It's not overplayed at all for me.

I’ll be sad to see Fool in the Rain get knocked out. For me, it’s by far the more enjoyable listen of two songs in this match, and I think a bit underrated by RM.

Good way to put it.

Out of the 3 major overplayed tracks on 4 this one’s my favorite.
