Is this the best song ever written?

My favorite Led Zeppelin song -- and I can play this on my acoustical guitar in the Key of A-minor:

Have you forgotten about Led Zeppelin? Best band ever.

How could I forget? My ears are still ringing from the two times I saw them in concert.

This thread could be the "best harmonica songs"?

I don't think we've ever had one of those here?

That's a good idea actually.

This is the best song ever written.

OP, when you can create music like this, then you have the "right" to call if the best song ever written.

That song is all about Bonham.

LOL. Its funny cause I play this live and people love it. To each his own!

This is a political forum and, therefore, a tough room to toot one's one musical horn.

hmmm....but out of the hat I can count on this forum, several people here, who know a lot about music and have great taste!

gonna redo in my voice not dylans. I think thats part of the turnoff. I was proud of the lyrical content.

I enjoyed the Jerry Jeff influence and mix with the Dylan influence. Two of my favorites.

I'm sure there are people with great taste in music here**. My point was that there's a difference between discussing music and pushing one's own musical wares in a vain attempt to up their Youtube count.


**So if I said "I'd love to bang Katy Perry like the drum solo in 'In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida'", does that count as having great taste in both women and music?

Fascinating thing about Inagoddadavida -- the interpretation:

In the garden of Eden, Baby
Don't you know that I'll always be true ?!

Another one of my favorite LZ tunes!

Try switching from acid to Xanax.

Xanax doesn't hold a candle to purple microdot, orange barrel, orange sunshine, window pane, blotter, peyote...

Then as it was, then again it will be
And though the course may change sometimes
Rivers always reach the sea
Blind stars of fortune, each have several rays
On the wings of maybe, down in birds of prey
Kind of makes me feel sometimes, didn't have to grow
But as the eagle leaves the nest, it's got so far to go

Changes fill my time, baby, that's alright with me
In the midst I think of you, and how it used to be

Did you ever really need somebody
And really need 'em bad
Did you ever really want somebody
The best love you ever had
Do you ever remember me, baby
Did it feel so good
'Cause it was just the first time
And you knew you would

Through the eyes an' I sparkle
Senses growing keen
Taste your love along the way
See your feathers preen
Kind of makes makes me feel sometimes
Didn't have to grow
We are eagles of one nest
The nest is in our soul

Vixen in my dreams, with great surprise to me
Never thought I'd see your face
The way it used to be
Oh darlin', oh darlin'

I'm never gonna leave you
I never gonna leave
Holdin' on, ten years gone
Ten years gone, holdin' on, ten years gone
Ten years gone, holdin' on

Fucking masterful. The music, the lyrics, everything.
