Best rock song of all times


Only one answer please.
Not the best written or the best musical complexity but the one that represents the rock.

My choice: Satisfaction - Rolling Stones

Reasons:
- first notes are like the 5th of Beethoven (when you hear those notes, everybody pumps up the volume)
- still very up to date
- a mix of rock and blues rock and Motown sound
- lyrics talks about disatisfaction of young people vs life, politics, money and women (even B Dylan like that song)
- music is very basic as a good rock song should be

I'm with the last two entries... Revolution by the Beatles. Lennon nailed it. A best rock song in any ones book. But Lindisfarne, I'm surprised, nothing from "Nicely Out of Tune"?
Happy Listening!
"Rockin in the free world"

Pearl Jam and Neil Young on "old black" allegedly a 1953 Gibson R6 Les Paul Goldtop highly modded and sprayed... you guessed it- jet black.
Aired on MTV 1993

Couldn't resist after just seeing the video on youtube tonite.
