Best Opening Lines

Recommended Posts

Well Zep had plenty of great openers, but which ones do you love most?

Mine (off the top of my head-I'm tired):

"Been dazed & confused for so long it's not true..."

"Oh let the sun beat down upon my face and stars to fill my dreams..."

And of course,

"I can't quit you bbaaabbbee!!!!"

I'll post more as I remember....

Babe Babe am gonna leave U..

U know U shook me baby ,, U shook me all night looooooooong

And if I say to you tomorrow, Take my hand, child, come with me..

Working from seven.. To eleven everynight..

No one's mentioned Tea for One yet: "How come 24 hours, baby, sometime seem to slip into days?"

Very true. I can relate.

My other favorites have already been mentioned, I think.

In the Light: "And if you feel that you can't go on, and your will's sinking low, just believe and you can't go wrong, in the light you will find the road." Very inspirational.

Tangerine: "Measuring a summer's day, only find it slips away to grey"

Battle of Evermore: "The queen of light took her bow and then she turned to go, the prince of peace embraced the gloom and walked the night alone."

And of course WIAWSNB: "And if I say to you tomorrow, take my hand child come with me, it's to a castle I will take you, well what's to be they say will be." I certainly wouldn't mind going to a castle with Robert (or Jimmy)!!! :D

I was burned in the heat of the moment (no!)

Though it couldn't have been the heat of the day

When I learned how my time had been wasted,

And a tear fell as I turned away . . .

And me favorite Bonzo vocal:

We done four already

but now we're steady

and then they went . . . Eins, zwei, drei, vier!

My favorite Zeppelin opener is the

"beep-deedle-eedle-eedle-beep-deedle-eedle-eedle, Greasy slicked down body, Groovy leather trim, like the way you hold the road, mama it ain't no sin."

From Trampled Underfoot

the first time I heard Zeppelin, I heard the first 5 seconds of this song, and I was already into it.
