Ok here's my list of epic rock songs. The reason I didn't include stairway is because everyone will always put that as their number one and there is no variety. Don't get me wrong I love the song...
10. The dark ride- helloween
9. Fade to black - metallica
8. Seperate ways- journey
7. Holy wars- megadeth
6. Come clarity- in flames
5. Juke box hero- foreigner
4. Pull me under or Octavarium- dream theater
3. Shogun- trivium
2. Hallowed by thy name- iron maiden
1. The final countdown- Europe
In no particular order, here are some that I think would be on my top list of epic rock songs..
Derek and the Dominos - Layla
Coheed & Cambria - Welcome Home
The Beatles - While My Guitar Gently Weeps
Metallica - One or Fade To Black
AC/DC - Highway to Hell
Queen - Bohemian Rhapsody
John Mayer - Bold As Love (originally by Jimi Hendrix)
Jimi Hendrix - All Along the Watchtower
(categorizing rock with all sub-genres including also metal and its sub-genres)(also, in no particular order)
Van Halen-You Really Got Me
Pink Floyd-Comfortably numb(or another brick in the wall)
