You cannot deny that Living Loving Maid is an awesome song. But my vote goes to Achilles' Last Stand. It's a very powerful 10-minutes epic, great riffs, great solo, great lyrics. A standout on the underrated "Presence" album.

Round 15 (And still going strong) ~
Celebration Day
vs.
Sick Again
Without question, my vote goes to the amazing Celebration Day. I love that song!
"My my my I'm so happy,
I'm gonna join the band,
We gonna dance and sing in celebration,
We’re in the promised land."
Let's go!
Sick Again is a good rocker, but Celebration Day has that extra something.

Round 16:
Communication Breakdown
vs.
Since I've Been Loving You
Wow. This is without a doubt the toughest round yet. So tough, in fact, that I can't even cast my vote yet. It'll take awhile for me. I love Communication Breakdown deeply, but JPJ's masterpiece Since I've Been Loving You is just too good to let go...I'll be back with my vote later.

Custard Pie

My vote goes to the offbeat rocker, Custard Pie.
Why are all of these rounds so damn hard? Oh yeah...because Zeppelin freaking owns.
Anyway, I'll say (after too much deliberation) Custard Pie.
