Did you see his interview with Dan Rather? He spoke very highly of and emotionally about Zeppelin. In particular why to this day he is most proud of his contribution to Kashmir.

Walter Posted November 21, 2019 Share Posted November 21, 2019 4 hours ago, andrew r said: Like every other interview he does he only raises Zeppelin to highlight some other project he is working on .On this occasion it's the singles box set . His comments ref Stairway are no surprise and are there to guarantee a headline or strap for the article in this case "Plant will never perform Stairway again because he can't relate to it" This is his only interest in his part of the Zeppelin legacy sadly. I have to agree with you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FavouriteTipple Posted December 25, 2019 Share Posted December 25, 2019 (edited) Folks, only one person in this world wrote the words to STH, a song which means so much to millions through the years, but something Plant wrote when he was, what 22 years old? What dire poetry was most of us writing at that age? So if he says that, it's not too surpriseing. Look at the man's long and varied trajectories. Spot the touchstones and tendrils and spores. Think about how proud he was of his Mighty Rearranger lyrics. There's the tone of latter man, no? I interpret this as not that he can't relate to any of those older Zep songs, but STH has a heavy weight to it, and the lyrics are of his youth. He's no problem with, say, Ramble On. So really, who among us - who - could stand up and truly imagine what it must be like to be the actual person who wrote the bloody words of STH? And then judge him for his comment on this one particular song. Lordy lordy. Plus falls for the classic mistake of not double-checking whether Percy was in fact taking the piss a little - as one commenter said above it's prob part of the PR for his new box set . Season of good will and all. Anyhoo, seasons greetings. Edited December 25, 2019 by FavouriteTipple Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
