      I thought so

      It doesn't sound like anything they'd write. Worst Zeppelin song.

        A lot of their songs are based on previous songs....that's no surprise. It's a subjective fine line between being inspired by another song and ripping it off.

        The classic Philly sports fan mindset. It's not right or wrong - it is what it is. Both a shame and a mantle of pride. Love and hate in constant turmoil.

              Jimmy Page was a huge thief, only followed by the biggest of them all

              James Marshall Hendrix...


              that guy could take a tunaround before a bridge in a song you never heard and write Cross town traffic,,or manic depression,,trust me,,melody lifting is common practice.

                  It's complete bullshit. Many bands have used that opening progression. Also, Cream, Hendrix, The Stones, The Dead, The Doors, and The Beatles borrowed from other artists yet Zep is the only one who gets blamed. Lame imo.

                  Also, even if they did "borrow" the opening, it doesn't take away from the rest of the song. F Spirit!!!

                        So is Led Zeppelin's music. Did they crusade against Napster? Double standard!

                          I guarantee that Willie Dixon borrowed many of those riffs and lyrics too.

                              Yes.

                              ...but there are two paths you can go by.
