You can't bring up Stairway and Sweet Child and not allow Blackbird to be AB's..

It's Blackbird
This was my first thought as well.

That's probably why the thread title says "not counting Blackbird" - because Blackbird is AB's most legendary song :lol

You hit the nail right on the head.


Most legendary songs I'd probably go with (other than blackbird) Cry of Achilles, Fortress, WDTTW and Open ur Eyes.


Also here's the link to Blackbird in case anyone gets excited and wants to hear the song right now:

Yes children, but as I said... You can't ask the question when comparing them to Stairway and Sweet Child.. You just can't do that, the thread title doesn't matter if you're already changing the rules of the question in the actual post lol.

So yeah, in keeping with the post; it's Blackbird. If you'd said "Like Led Zep's 2nd best song, and G'n'Rs 2nd best song... what is Alter Bridge's?"; that would've made sense

@Jim

No need to be so anal about it. =)

---Seriously tho, if we are going to call Waters Rising legendary", shouldn't we just call every AB song legendary?

Lover is legendary in my eyes. The whole aura of that song is haunting.

It's on the same level as Buried Alive and White Knuckles and Slip To The Void etc... It's not LEGENDARY Alter Bridge, in my eyes

Well, no Alter Bridge song is LEGENDARY. This thread is basically a "Favorite AB song" thread.

That's why we said, if any song has to be labelled that; it's gotta be Blackbird

Metalingus. I know folks who know about Alter Bridge from that song, and it's probably still one the bands most popular songs outside the Alter Bridge fanbase

It's so obviously Blackbird. I mean come on, its solo was once voted as the best of all time. I don't necessarily agree that it is, but it is proof that it has far more recognition that any other AB song.
