kashmiran Posted May 29, 2008 Share Posted May 29, 2008 (edited) Dude, you are high. Scratch that. VERY high. These are great, but they are certaintly not the best! Where's Kashmir? Where's Achilles Last Stand? Where's SIBLY? NQ? Stairway? You can't say that you are knowledgable about Zepp if you think THESE are the best, OK? Oh, Kashmir is the greatest song of all time. Just thought you should know that. Edited May 29, 2008 by kashmiran Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

led_zep_girl_92 Posted May 30, 2008 Share Posted May 30, 2008 Where is Whole Lotta Love? Or Immigrant Song? Well, every Led Zeppelin Song is great, but where have you left the best of them? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Misty Posted May 30, 2008 Share Posted May 30, 2008 i believe robert has been quoted to say that "kashmir is the quitessential led zeppeling song." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimmie ray Posted May 30, 2008 Share Posted May 30, 2008 I could say "In the Light" was definitely a favorite for most of my listening years - but for the general masses, none of these would be a good selection. But you just started this because everything else has been said, here - right? "Whole Lotta Love" is the defining song you'll get the most nods for, I would think.

docron Posted June 11, 2008 Share Posted June 11, 2008 I never understood what people saw in Kasmir... I consider myself one of the bigger Zeppelin fans out there.., but really, what is it about that song that people like? Sure its got a unique sound, but alot of the things I love about the Zeppelin are missing in this one - like a Page solo. I don't even consider them solos.. I consider it as a full verse where Page talks to you with his guitar. I don't want to start any fights - I love the song, but I can't say its their best. If anyone would care to explain why they think Kashmir is their best, I'd be happy to hear your opinion. If you ask me, Since I've Been Loving You is the all-time Led Zeppelin song. Its everything - a love ballad, a hate ballad, its slow at first, and builds energy till the solo, where if you were unclear about the meaning before, Page makes it clear with his emotion-driven guitar. From the choices listed though, I voted I'm Gonna Crawl. Although I don't think any of those are really their best, out of the choices given, this song speaks to me the most. The solo is being driven from something deep down, and, someone said it great in another post - the song makes me want to weep, get piss drunk, and throw an ex-lover out the god-damn in door.

S-P Posted June 11, 2008 Share Posted June 11, 2008 I'm in total agreement with you docron. I don't know neither why people think Kashmir is the best song. Maybe it's because Rob finds that it's the sound that represent Led Zep? I don't think so. As for myself, I do think that the first four albums (let's say three) are the real original Led Zep sound. Since I've Been Loving You is a great exemple of what this band represent at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The first four albums show the diversity and the soul that every great band should have! LZ 1, I think, is their best ever! But that is my opinion, and as you know, every has one.

TenYearsGone75 Posted June 12, 2008 Share Posted June 12, 2008 These are actually some of my favorite songs... I used to listen to Hots On For Nowhere nonstop when I first purchased Presence...oh, those were the days! -TYG Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Evster2012 Posted June 12, 2008 Share Posted June 12, 2008 Love them all! Picking favorite Zeppelin songs is like picking a favorite child. They all have a place and a time that they delight you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
One Symbol Posted June 12, 2008 Share Posted June 12, 2008 Opted for In the Light, but first-choice would have been Achilles if it had been on the list... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
little_leah_h Posted June 13, 2008 Share Posted June 13, 2008 Since ive been loving you is my favorite song too. but like you say its hard to chose as they all mean something different to people. and lets face it all of Zeps work is fantastic.

Electrophile Posted October 19, 2008 Share Posted October 19, 2008 None of those songs, honestly. Kashmir, Achilles Last Stand, Tea For One, When The Levee Breaks, Whole Lotta Love, Stairway To Heaven, Rock and Roll, Black Dog, No Quarter, In The Evening, Trampled Underfoot, Dazed and Confused......all those songs rank higher IMO than those on the list.

ninelives Posted April 19, 2009 Share Posted April 19, 2009 Zep were so diverse stylistically that it would be impossible for me to name one song that would define them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Rover Posted April 20, 2009 Share Posted April 20, 2009 Where's Over The Hills and Far Away??? Well, HG, the live version of this song, as heard on TSRTS CD, is a great representation of how Zeppelin can expand an studio track to great proportions.
