A good top 10 and I'm pleased to see "Ten Years Gone" at seven. "Stairway To Haven" is number one (just because) and if it were my choice, I would place "The Rain Song" at number two.
Stairway is the first zep song any kid heard and nobody could argue with ranking that #1. but, over the hills has always been my favorite song of theirs.
Misty mountain hop I always found to be overrated. When the levee breaks should be higher.
That definitely belongs in the top 10. If you asked me back in the 80's if Fool In The Rain belonged in the Top 10, I would have said no way. Now, I think it does. Page's solo in that is as good as guitar playing gets. The thing about some of these Zeppelin songs is that they're like 3 songs in one. They'll take you to a bridge and then flip the song to a whole new verse/chorus and then go back again or change it completely one more time. Ridiculously talented musicians who get the connection between classical music, blues, jazz, and rock.
They were the kings of either putting out a song so amazing, beautiful, and complete that it gave me chills OR out out something so horrible sounding I could barely listen to it.
All my love makes me want to drive into a bridge underpass.
