Quotes and Lyrics by Led Zeppelin

Led Zeppelin were an English rock band formed in London in 1968. The group comprised vocalist Robert Plant, guitarist Jimmy Page, bassist and keyboardist John Paul Jones, and drummer John Bonham.

And as we wind on down the road
Our shadows taller than our soul
There walks a lady we all know
Who shines white light and wants to show
How everything still turns to gold
And if you listen very hard
The tune will come to you at last
When all are one, and one is all
To be a rock and not to roll

And she's buying a stairway to Heaven

Stairway to Heaven, Album: Led Zeppelin IV

And it's whispered that soon if we all call the tune
Then the piper will lead us to reason
And a new day will dawn for those who stand long
And the forests will echo with laughter

Stairway to Heaven, Album: Led Zeppelin IV

There's a feeling I get when I look to the West
And my spirit is crying for leaving
In my thoughts I have seen rings of smoke through the trees
And the voices of those who stand looking

Stairway to Heaven, Album: Led Zeppelin IV

We come from the land of the ice and snow
From the midnight sun where the hot springs flow

Immigrant Song, Album: Led Zeppelin III

Oh, the sea was red, and the sky was grey
Wondered how tomorrow could ever follow today

Going to California, Album: Led Zeppelin IV

Made up my mind to make a new start
Going to California with an aching in my heart
Someone told me there's a girl out there
With love in her eyes and flowers in her hair

Going to California, Album: Led Zeppelin IV

And so today, my world, it smiles
Your hand in mine, we walk the miles
And thanks to you it will be done
For you to me are the only one

Thank You, Album: Led Zeppelin II

If the sun refused to shine
I would still be loving you
When mountains crumble to the sea
There will still be you and me

Thank You, Album: Led Zeppelin II

Ramble on, and now's the time, the time is now
To sing my song, I'm going 'round the world, I gotta find my girl
On my way, I've been this way ten years to the day
Ramble on, gotta find the queen of all my dreams

Ramble On, Album: Led Zeppelin II

The leaves are falling all around, time I was on my way
Thanks to you, I'm much obliged for such a pleasant stay
But now it's time for me to go, the autumn moon lights my way
For now I smell the rain, and with it pain, and it's headed my way

Ramble On, Album: Led Zeppelin II

The hammer of the gods
Will drive our ships to new land
To fight the horde, sing and cry
Valhalla, I am coming

Immigrant Song, Album: Led Zeppelin III

Quotes about Led Zeppelin

Stairway to Heaven is a nice pleasant, well-meaning naive little song, very English. It's not the definitive Led Zeppelin song. Kashmir is.

Robert Plant

I don't think I had any idea the group would achieve so much.

John Bonham

I don't think drums had ever sounded so big until Led Zeppelin's first album.

I don't think the critics could understand what we were doing.

I always believed in the music we did and that's why it was uncompromising.

I think Led Zeppelin must have worn some of the most peculiar clothing that men had ever been seen to wear without cracking a smile.

Robert Plant

When Mom was a groupie in the '70s, her scrambled eggs made her the darling of the MSG loading dock. Lot of songs written about those scrambled eggs:
ZZ Top's "She's Got Legs"? Originally "She's Got Eggs".
Led Zeppelin? "Scramble On".
Steve Miller? "The Yolker".
If you listen to Pink Floyd's "Dark Side of the Moon" while eating her eggs, it lines up perfectly.

Let me explain something about guitar playing. Everyone's got their own character, and that's the thing that's amazed me about guitar playing since the day I first picked it up. Everyone's approach to what can come out of six strings is different from another person, but it's all valid.
