- Lloyd Moss and Eric Hemion of the "Why We Love It" Podcast invited me to talk about this classic rock tune by Zeppelin - and since he loves the band so much, I invited my brother-in-law, Brad Nolte to join us. We get into the music theory of the song, analyze the lyrics, and talk about what this song means to each of us. I hope you enjoy this video even though it's a little "out of the norm" for me. Thanks for watching and sharing with your other Zeppelin-loving friends!

Finally, it's time for more recognition of Ten Years Gone! ❤😊 Thank you. Now, Aimee, please would you consider playing this song on your channel? 😅🙏
Ten Years Gone and That's The Way. The two most beautiful Zeppelin songs.
Agreed! Thanks so much for listening!
The Rain Song as well.
@@lyndoncmp5751👍 The two songs that start Houses Of The Holy perfectly complement each other.The Song Remains The Same going into The Rain Song. Bliss !
@@StratsRUs
Spot on. Totally agree. Especially live at MSG in '73.
This is my favorite Zeppelin song by far. Also, the Rain Song is up there. Easily as epic as Stairway, if not more so. Great discussion!
Thank you, if you check out our link we also covered “When The Levee Breaks”!
So COOL. This is the BEST Zeppelin Tune and Aimee is the BEST music teacher. My playing has shot through the roof because of her. Thank you. And this track-I've doing a solo version of this for years...
Rad! Thanks Julian
You can go without listening to Zep for a while.Then when you listen again it has that full awe-inspiring hit again.
Classic track. Great content thank you
Thank you for listening to us… We really appreciate it!
This song still stops me in my tracks. Figuring it out on guitar and bass by ear at 14, when I was barely prepared to do so, took me ages, but I learned so much from it that it's still paying off. The riff over the A pedal at the beginning is always so wistful, goosebumps-inducing.
Agreed! I had a similar experience growing up. Thanks so much for listening! Lloyd
TYG masterpiece a true testament to the power grace and fire of Led Zeppelin in all Its glory blazing and heartfelt now crystallized in our hearts forevermore
I'm watching this episode on nebula and came here to read the comments of the community, my fav song ever ❤
Another amazing song by Zeppelin!! They all are!
Poetically spoken that particular part gives away the speechless mood that initiated this song. Just saying.
Thanks for sharing this. Loved it. 🎵🕊🤗
The song takes me back to the special summer between 6th & 7th grade, when I became friends with a family of hippies from California. My new friend introduced me to the power chord & we spent the summer smoking pot, playing guitars & listening to Zeppelin. Thank you Amy, I didnt see this one coming
Thank you for listening to our podcast Dave. Ten Years Gone IMHO is one strong in which the title matches the emotion of the vocals and music!
This is one of my favorite songs..It really is unique.
A stunning masterpiece that is criminally overlooked. That solo can make a grown man weep…
"Ten Years Gone" is one of those rock songs that is hard to classify. Put it into that "progressive" bin, haha. There aren't too many rock songs that use diminished chords along with minor and major seventh chords. That soft guitar intro followed by the pause kicks into that bombastic riff with Bonzo laying down that heavy pounding that he was so famous for. Page's guitar solo includes those phase shifted double stops that once again defies classification as hard rock. The entire Physical Graffiti album is a gem. My favorite tune is "The Wanton Song" - we'd jokingly call it the won ton song. I recall practicing "The Rover" with that F/E "mistake" at the bridge as is - it just sounds perfectly Pagey left in. 😆
Thank you so much for your comments. Trampled Under Foot and Houses are two other trax that I like!
Fantastic discussion. Really enjoyed it. One of my favourite Zeppelin songs. I don't have a single favourite. I love Plant's raspy voice during the "did you ever really need somebody..." part. You can tell he hadn't quite fully recovered from the throat operation he had after the '73 American tour to remove the nodules he developed, but it makes it even cooler.
Cheers.
For me their greatest song.
Thank you everyone the video commentary was Priceless and getting to meet all of you What an Honor I dont care what Amy says about you guys you are not as bad as she says .........JK ! Sorry Amy! LOL
Thank you for listening! There’s a link to over 50 episodes of song discussion…everything from The Beatles to Pink Floyd to Massive Attack and more!
First two chords remind me of “A Child Is Born,” beautiful jazz waltz by Thad Jones in 1969
The GOATS! PERIOD! 😎🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Agreed. Thank you so much for tuning in…Lloyd
Great episode. Thank you! 👍
Isn't it amazing you guys are recognizing is that such a small window that could mean so much to a Listener that Hits it Home! How many of us in this life are touched by something that in such a Small timeframe like even M & M rapper Loose yourself in the moment! You only got one shot and how he rapped in his lyrics that it is only that one shot that comes in a lifetime! I often wonder about all the artist that are unsung hero that never where discovered and they went to their graves and the only people that knew their stuff where only the ones in Their immediate life.....But the world missed!!!!
I was a teen in the 70's with no musical knowledge. I gravitated towards Linda Rondstadt, the Eagles and alot of soft rock. All the guys were into Zeppelin so by contact I heard their music but I think it was probably too aggressive for the type of teen girl I was back then. The pandemic came and I got into youtube and have become a obsessed Led Zeppelin fan in my 60"s. I am rediscovering the 70's music now and Zep and Queen got my through the past 3 years of isolation!
Sounds like I had a similar story. They must’ve done something right since people are still listening. 50 years later… Thanks for listening to a podcast!
Show👏👏👏❤
Where's that confounded bridge? Loved this, Thank you.
I was an on the air Dj for an Alternative Underground and that is what Underground meant it was a Cable Fm not regular radio and our signal from our station was National due to the fact that our Rf frequencies where likened to A Ham Radio supped up on steroids. The FCC required the College to hold a special (Not a Ham Radio License) although all the Disc Jokey by class curriculum, Mandatory to have and be registered for studio operations a particular license for HAM radio ! Yet the College had to have a special type of license apart from a Ham operators license That also provided Studio operations using 8 Track Carts and Cassette and Dub for editing on splicing On Reel to Reel . Yes us DJs had to come up with out own "Character Voice Overs And wright the PSA Script for our Sponsors!
I had no Idea the work that a Radio personality would go through not only to obtain a following , but also To write and Produce our own Commercial .
That was in the early 1990s ....I was in my freshman year in college and a Huge Led Zeppelin Fan ! I was more of a total Jim Morrison fan than a Zep Head! my Fav of all time from Zep would be Dyer Maker!!!! And that is strictly due to the rhythmic Syncopation.
The artist I learned of in the College Radio where bands like Sioux and the Banshees, Erasure, you guys mentioned Martin Gore and the Cure which was often in Queue during my shows on the air. I would also play Toad the wet Sprocket, The mighty mighty boss tones, The mighty Lemon Drops, Drop Kick Murphy's, The Clash, Ramones, Sex Pistols , R.E.M , The B-52s, NetZero Eb, Morrissey , A lot of times and mostly my ears would get a huge treat!
However though as a theorist in music as a keyboardist ! Like Amy however Amy know how to read notes and was mostly formerly taught through school. I am pretty much self taught yet My school has been AMY so ty for you DO AMY MAD PROPS Always enjoy all of your Content and God bless you all for doing a neat video like this!
I almost Got kicked out of Studio operations for Playing Zeplin a lot Oh those where the days.....The director said Robert plant and Jimmy where not fitting for our branding! lol ! I WAS A REBEL ! !!! Bad me lol!~
I think in Fool in the Rain, that part where it goes Mardi Gras, is the narrator suddenly realizing he’s on the wrong street corner and he has to start running to the real place he is supposed to meet the girl and the whistles are the policemen at corners trying to stop the narrator from going running across red-lighted intersections. He runs in the rain til he’s breathless.
I saw them in 77...ticket prices were $9.99....I am a loyal Zep head ever since...a few years ago I got the killer headphones and amp....this is how I relive their amazing sounds today.

I've been fascinated by an old school effect called a Uni Vibe...it's the one effect I don't see many digital plugins for and it has a sort of throbbing effect similar to, but different from a phase shifter, and I wonder if Zeppelin used it for guitar and even keyboards and even vocals on No Quarter and possibly drums on maybe When the Levee Breaks...
One of the things that distinguishes Zep from their "heavy" contemporaries they are always compared to: their amazing "Light" side. Thank You, Tangerine, That's The Way, Bron-Yraur, Going to California, Rain Song, Ten Years Gone, All My Love.....they were a diverse band.
True and none of the hard rock bands would have even attempted something like Down By The Seaside.
Another artist or band that has used the fourth degree minor artfully is the song Creep by Radio head.
stolen off the hollys.. “ all i need is the air that I breath “ 😬 both great songs though.
Led Zeppelin Like most of the bands in that era has defiantly took the minor pentatonic scale and played it in many different ways however the Lyrics where so awesome and trying to figure out the story that was really being told !!!
“took” 🤓 off bobby parker
In Jazz theory Amy would aggrege with me about chordal structure in this . If you do not know how to transpose into another key as far as transition being assigned (i.e Four over five of the target desired key to the tonic Change!) to a number formula, You can gracefully introduce the next key like from A Maj into Db maj!
Johns Drumming was excellent! The Tambar was definitely Artistic!
also the bass can be creative by going down on a Chromatic walk using the leading descension of the major 7th!
I just got out of high school when Zep's first album came out, I was playing in a band and also did sound for other bands and I worked in a record store off and on for many years so I heard most of Zep's album from having to play them in the store. Yes you read it right "having to play them", I wasn't a Zep fan and most my musician friends weren't either. We liked a couple songs off the first album mainly because it was new. The 2nd album same a couple tunes. We played a couple of their tunes when they were popular, but dropped them from our playlist pretty fast. We were more into Cream, Hendrix, and Mountain for what then was called Heavy Rock. I taught guitar for awhile so I learned the usual Zep tunes that students wanted, but even being around Zep working in music store and learning tunes to teach I never got into their music. People in the next generation seem to the one that got into Zep.
Zeppelin were musically deeper and more complex than any of those acts. Even in the first and second albums with the dynamics and layering.
I loved Hendrix for a while, then his stuff started boring me. I couldn't get into Cream. Too simplistic and plodding. All flash little substance.
Gone are the days of musical Poets its one thing to compose the notes of the score or song, ...........but to come up with the deep meanings of words that take you on a Journey! Maybe a familiar walk down a path or even the Unknown!
So well put, and thank you for listening to us!
@@lloydmoss217 you know Wes, this one artist by the name of Bob Dylan. I think he was kind of overlooked on some of his non-popular music that did not play on the top 40s. This guy was a poet like you would not believe and I can’t tell you what all of his words necessarily meant, but he certainly made you think like nobody else and people just don’t write those lyrics anymore. It’s not the famous ones that Bob Dylan dead, but it was the ones that really did not ever make it to the top 40s and he was a true poet with his word. He was very very very very deep.
Easily my favorite zeppelin song
I can totally agree with you on that… Thanks so much for listening to a podcast Josh!
I've Chose music over many relationships Also being an ex addict i chose even over music for that time But Thank God for a praying Mother and Father and Grandparent that refused to give up When everyone else did even my friends! God was not done with this bag of bones!
Ps JPJ plays a 26 string guitar which he's able to run the rhythm of the song , while playing lead . 12 , 6 & 8 > mandolin
I remember a lot of songs that where destructive even some that are romantic sounding like the Song Sacrifice by elton john ....that says there no sacrifice just a simple word "Cheat!" and don't feel guilty because you can have your cake and eat it to grooming couples for divorce and Hit it and Quit it message that people do not consider what the artist was saying! You don't have to feel guilty to enjoy sex outside of a marriage or serious relationship! You know how many females follow and love that song but don't even consider what hes saying ........one song that blues traveler does is called HOOK ! OMG the lyrics say it all in that song
The Black Crowes with Page did the best cover of TYG.
Yeah we mention that a few times! 🙌🏼
👍🏻 because it’s country and western 🤠 no Robert Plant admitted it .. Led Zep was a country and western band .. 😬 have you heard “10 years after” “at the woodchoppers ball” you’d love it .
I love Neal Pert also
as far as Rudimentary drummers
This is NO fantasy song , it's REAL life . As the eagle leaves the nest , it's got so far to go hits on so many levels Ps My mom bought me LZII on cassette, i was 9 I guess mom knew my destiny ❤💕❤
A Bridge yes that is what I would call it or an Interlude (And or what would constitute Refrain!) refereeing parallel tags I would be presumptuous! I would call that also a Hook or an earworm.
Bass was on the fifth degree and sometimes is caught on the third of the tonic yes
I'm surprised that nobody brought up the Swiss Army Knife of Led Zeppelin - John Paul Jones' contrasting offset descending bass AAGAF (starting on second measure) against Jimmy's guitar (and throughout the song when they "start at the top" of the section) on that opening riff makes it all come together - That bass.... Finally noted at 44 minutes (yay Aimee & panel folks) - but still that whole sound - the bass makes it sound cool and sustains longer as the guitar fades (at each whole)
Mm. At some point we talked about the F note because it almost makes the Dmi above it NOT be a Dmi…but that’s toward the end. Good point!
@@AimeeNolte especially if the relative is sixth degree to the tonic but rule of thumb constitutes by standard ..the tonic presumptuously would be a major However I do believe the standard can be broken and often is in Jazz
Agreed, we mentioned in the podcast that JPJ was such a talented arranger and really the unsung hear of Zep!. Thanks for listening!
Dissonance and Resolve
I get yelled at constantly to resolving fourth degree to the tonic at church as a pianist on the praise team because i do stuff like that and the vocals says it throws them off! Even to the point that they verbally warned me that I would be grounded if i do it again or and use an Organ Voice with the mosaic they HATE organ sound and i love a good Hammond or a Leslie! But for sure a Rotary Hammond like Jerry Garcia would have used! Do they even make those anymore?
The Beatles took years and years before they became famous interesting enough they played over ten years in Europe and Night clubs and barely was recognized and Cost them ten years each of dumping money into what they believed and the privilege to interact with their audience on a very Limited way of means living on club salary and tips and most likely Had to work any job they could find in order to create their venues! Then someone somewhere thought they where worth monetizing on a larger scale then all of a sudden the brattish invasion! But the journey of Sacrifice and the efforts put forth and did not quit! They most like asked many people if they wanted fries with that! But Who can tell that what they felt when they became a World Iconic Band!!!
I wonder if it left them with the question, "How many People are out there as better musicians as us and didn't have the break we found?" I always wonder that about Famous Music groups or Band members!
Makes me wonder ROFL
In the sixties though i would definitely Vote Janis Joplin
Cant forget about Pat Benatar
What is strange is I hear arrangements in my head all the time like non stop i have to take medication because of it and is hard to focus because I hear Progressions almost constantly that it gets to the point sometimes is hard for me to carry on a conversation with out spacing off in Racing thoughts of progression! Wow! My therapist say that its being Bi polar with having debilitating Social skills because of it so they say am not normal and need to take pills to control it! People at church say That I am on the virga of being Socially unacceptable! But the lead guitarist who built worship teams for his parents church claims, that I am ahead of my time in theory and that is why people don't understand me Amy thinks like I do in piano about syncope and also theory in Jazz! If yu guys are interested in hearing my piano arrangement or interpretation i have a vid on my channel that years later i finally opened up to the public i used it to go to sleep all these nights when i fight insomnia ! The song is a Hymn "I Surrender All!" My grandmother used to sing me to sleep when i was a kid and I surrender all was the song she sang to me before she slipped into eternity!
*Algorithm comment*
Led Zeppelin is the best cover band ever.
Yes because they covered almost every spectrum of music.
Who do you think wrote Ten Years Gone first then? Willie Dixon? 😂
