Yeah, this one is easy.
"Achilles's Last Stand" vs. "Immigrant Song" would be interesting imo.

'Since I've Been Loving You'

I've never heard any of these.
No option for 'Back in Time for Tea'?

I think Tea should get more respect. Seems to be the essence of LZ at their lowest, such a contrast to their other modes of bombast and folky beauty and excess. “How come 24 hours sometimes seem to slip into day?” is a great line - even if it makes up about 50% of the lyrics - and Page is really great here as well.

I like both but "Tea for One" gets less play so that one.

no question "tea." the intro could have made a terrific song on its own, but it sets up an indeed low, wasted mood, fairly unique in the catalog. "since" is overplayed and subject to the overblown blooz tropes they done. But tis still better than "I'm gonna crawl" a wet fart that closes what's otherwise my favorite LZ album.

Since I've Been Loving You is one of my very favorite Led Zep songs. Possibly Page's best performance, such an awesome slow burn

SIBLY is way better to me, even after being "ruined" by knowing about the squeaky pedal you can't unhear

Don’t know offhand but are they in the same key and has there been a mashup? Seems ripe

That riff that opens 'Tea for One' Zep had around for a while before it ended up there as it was used in a few live shows as an opening lick for other songs.
