price.pittsburgh Posted May 7, 2015 Share Posted May 7, 2015 I've noticed that some members have stated that Plant changed the lyrics to some songs when singing them live. By any chance, did he do the same with Stairway by changing the lyric from stores to stars early in the song (Stores are all closed to stars are all closed) or is it just his pronunciation with his English accent?

Stairway is NOT stolen Posted May 7, 2015 Share Posted May 7, 2015 I think that was just his accent. The one line he did change was: Dear lady, can you hear the wind blow, and did you knowYour stairway lies on the whispering wind? Changing it to: Dear people, can you hear the wind blow, and did you know A stairway lies on the whispering wind? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ledzepfilm Posted May 7, 2015 Share Posted May 7, 2015 I'm pretty sure he changed it to either "our stairway" or "your stairway" depending on the night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
riffsofpage Posted May 7, 2015 Share Posted May 7, 2015 LOL. I always thought it was "stars" too for years till I came across a lyric sheet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chillumpuffer Posted May 8, 2015 Share Posted May 8, 2015 Not really his accent. I always thought Plant sounded American when he sang anyway. I also think he may have forgotten the lyrics from time to time. Short term memory loss due to sharing roll ups before the show Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
