The reason for no Stairwayis that in the 70s, if someone picked up a guitar it was about 2:1 odds that they would start picking out that song and butcher it terribly. It was the first song everyone wanted to learn to play, and only the first part of it translates well- the end where they start really rocking it out cannot be played by one person on a guitar, really. It just sounds lame.
Stairway got to be a terrible cliche. Remember "Wayne's World" where he picked up the Stratocaster in the guitar store? Remember the sign over the guitar?
Yeah.
