Crazy Train or Nightrain?

What out of these two iconic tunes from the 80's?

For me it's Nightrain easily.

I smoke pot and cigarettes with style, and I can tell you, honey, you can make my money tonight... I'm on the Nightrain! Bottoms up!

Nightrain and it ain't even close.

Not a GnR fan.  Never heard Nightrain.
Everyone else, except Wolfking is wrong.

My vote was gonna go to Hey Soul Sister by Train, but this is acceptable too

Nightrain is an aweome GnR song and I'm not really a big GnR fan, but Crazy Train is sooo good and such a huge hit song, it gets my vote fairly easily.

Crazy Train.  Love them both, but this song is just so much more significant to the history of rock and metal music.

What about Train Train from Blackfoot?  ;)

Ozzy, and I don't even consider it one of the best RANDY songs (let alone Ozzy songs overall).

Someone quoted the lyrics earlier in the thread, and I assumed as much anyway.  Maybe I've heard the song before, but I don't recognize it by name.  I'd vote for Baby Shark over a GnR song.

The only good part of Crazy Train is the intro.  After the main riff and verse starts, it's crap.  Ozzy's done some great stuff, but this ain't it.

Nightrain it is.

I honestly thought this was about the James Brown song. Either way, Crazy Train it is. Not a GnR fan.
