--- Quote from: SrMeowMeow on 04 Feb 2009, 18:52 ---Led Zepplin and the Beatles are my big two. Led Zepplin just does nothing for me (ok, Stairway, yes, but besides that) and the Beatles, when I can think of them objectively instead of as a cultural building block, just don't really excite me. They have plenty of good songs but no distinctive sound that rocks me.

If "Stairway to Heaven" is the one song you like by Zeppelin, you're obviously doing something wrong.

That is definitely a lie.

Hugely wrong. Stairway is nowhere near their best. When The Levee Breaks, Achilles Last Stand, The Ocean, In My Time of Dying, Black Dog, How Many More Times, Traveling Riverside Blues, Since I've Been Loving You, Whole Lotta Love, and Over The Hills And Far Away are all better, and that was just off the top of my head.

I'll put a dollar on Going to California and, um... the Viking song.

Do you mean No Quarter or the Immigrant Song? (i.e., the short, dun-da-da-DA-dun one, or the seven minute long one with synthesizers)

I don't see how we're even having this conversation...most of those songs are exactly why I think Led Zepplin is overrated. Telling me what songs I should like isn't going to make me like them. I like Stairway because it's epic, rockin' shit, but these other songs don't do it for me. The only other song I particularly enjoy is All My Love.

We'll assume you don't enjoy blues. Zeppelin are tried and true masters of the Blues.
