    Led Zeppelin formed in 1968 and went on to become one of the most influential, innovative, and successful groups in modern music, having sold more than 300 million albums worldwide. The band rose from the ashes of The Yardbirds, when Jimmy Page brought in John Bonham, John Paul Jones, and Robert Plant to tour as The New Yardbirds. In 1969, Led Zeppelin released its self-titled debut which was produced by Page, as were all the subsequent albums. It marked the beginning of a 12-year reign, during which the group was widely considered to be the biggest and most innovative rock band in the world.

I've tried over the years to get everyone I know to love Led Zeppelin, but they never dig deep enough to hear masterpieces like this. It's not all Whole Lotta Love and Stairway to Heaven. These guys were so diverse. There's something for everyone to love.

    It was Aug 1988. My Grandfather had passed, we were in the funeral line up to the cemetary. And i had Zep playin. This is what came on as i started the car. Oh my! How a song can ring the bells of the memorys one once cherished. Peace to all .

    • @adude394
      @adude394 Місяць тому +3

      For sure. Songs - and certain aromas, like the smell of baking - always take me back in time. Back in 1987, I had to bring my beloved Weimaraner, Fritz, to the vet for the last time; at nearly 14, he was ready to cross the Rainbow Bridge. After leaving the vet, I started my car and the first song that came on was "The Ballad of Curtis Loew" by Lynyrd Skynyrd. Even now, going on 38 years later, every time I hear that song I think of that day, saying my last goodbye to Fritz and barely able to see because of the tears in my eyes. (Actually, the lyrics of the song are very poignant anyway. It's my favorite Skynyrd song by far, even with the sad connotation.) Note that I'm not trying to compare having a dog put to sleep with the passing of your grandfather; I'm just talking about how memories can be triggered.

    Anyone reading this comment knows the power of music and the majesty of this particular song. In February 2011, I came home just after my mother's funeral and decided to work out to shake myself out of the catatonic state I had been experiencing since her death. My iPod had well over 1000 songs on it, so I programmed it to play randomly as I hit the weights. What song played first? Led Zeppelin's 'The Rain Song.' I paused my exercising briefly to let this 'coincidence' sink in. Feeling as though mom was speaking to me from beyond the grave, I resumed my workout not even attempting to hide my tears. The next song to play was the Beatles' 'Here Comes the Sun.' I am not fabricating this story; it actually happened. She was telling me that into each life a little rain must fall but here comes the sun. As far as I know, my mom never heard either 'The Rain Song' or 'Here Comes the Sun' in her lifetime. She preferred Country music. She was using the best possible medium to tell her grieving son, who is passionate about music, that everything will be alright. One day, there will be no more rain, only the sun. RIP mom. I miss you dearly. Dan.

    The Rain Song - Lyrics:
    It is the springtime of my loving
    The second season I am to know
    You are the sunlight in my growing
    So little warmth I've felt before
    It isn't hard to feel me glowing
    I watched the fire that grew so low, oh
    It is the summer of my smiles
    Flee from me, keepers of the gloom
    Speak to me only with your eyes
    It is to you, I give this tune
    Ain't so hard to recognize, oh
    These things are clear to all from time to time, ooh
    Oh, oh
    Oh
    Talk, talk, talk, talk
    Hey, I felt the coldness of my winter
    I never thought it would ever go
    I cursed the gloom that set upon us, 'pon us, 'pon us
    But I know that I love you so
    Oh, but I know
    That I love you so
    These are the seasons of emotion
    And like the wind, they rise and fall
    This is the wonder of devotion
    I see the torch
    We all must hold
    This is the mystery of the quotient, quotient
    Upon us all, upon us all, a little rain must fall
    Just a little rain, oh, yeah
    Oh, ooh, yeah-yeah-yeah

    Reading so many of these comments brings me so much joy, I'm only 17 years old and most of my life I've been listening to bands like Led Zeppelin. I didn't have a phone growing up or really any internet unlike most kids in my generation and instead had my dads old Walkman cassette player he gave me, he had bands like Genesis, Rush, BeeGees, Steve Windwood/Eric Clapton, REO Speedwagon, Journey, Survivor, Depeche Mode, Van Halen, Eddie Money, the list goes on of the music I grew up on, and of course Led Zeppelin too. Listening to this song brings me back to when I was a kid, just a boy with not a care in the world, just happy as can be and didn't worry about life and being an adult, now I'm a month away from becoming an adult and honestly, I'm quite scared if I'm honest. I don't know what to do with my life and I get stressed easily, I wonder if life is even worth living anymore if I'm pretty honest, and wonder if I am loved, I don't really have any friends but I try spend most my time playing guitar and going to the gym, but this song follows me everywhere in my mind, just that feeling of wanting to be free. I hope one day when I'm old, either married or most likely alone in my small home sitting on the porch watching the sun set, or watching the rain fall in an early spring shower, or the stars come out on a warm summer evening, I hope I can listen to this song, and remember the good in my life, and why I made it that far. I could finally say to myself "You did it, Josh".

      Thank you for sharing. May Jesus shelter you from the storms this present struggles with.
      Always be true and centered within ones self
      Musical self expressions can be beautiful... inspirational... and potentially patterning a different course when others journeys...
      You are appreciated
