Hmmm, this question is infinitely arguable.

But, for my $.02, I'll say Stairway to Heaven is by and far, the most well known and the single most iconic classic rock song ever.

"Hard Rock" is really a pretty ambiguous term, with regard to genre. Just look, it evoked votes for monkeys gnawing on guitars (godsmack). Interpreting "hard rock" as "heavier classic rock", and thus disqualifying my personal favorite classic rock band of all time, Boston (STFU, their level of musical talent and composition is stupefying), I feel there's no contender with Black Sabbath as the band. From them, I'd have to pick N.I.B. as the most anthemic and well known of their songs.
