Why?  He's talking about the woman he loves and never wanting to let her go.  Sounds flattering to me :)




I think it may have something to do with the title.... and lyrics about a woman who drives him insane.   Just saying.

Whats better than a Led Zeppelin song?

Two Led Zeppelin songs! Thanks for the back to back Bill, outstanding!
Harlan - I would have just faked it. She was hot, right?

My second girlfriend, back in high school, loved Led Zeppelin, and gave me a bunch of tapes (1991) to listen to. I did, 'cause she was hot. But I still don't get Zeppelin. They're annoying. I know I'm in the minority, and I'm sorry to interrupt your enjoyment as you read the otherwise doubtless glowing comments. But I can't stand 'em. I think that's why she dumped me...
 

Sorry Harlan, she put the writing on the wall right in front of you 30 years ago. It was your chance, you blew it but it's never too late to come around and let your mind enjoy rock and roll for what it is! 
full goosebumps
Side 2, cut 2, baby. This is LZ at their best.
Encore!!!!!!

 That's happened again. Right today.

He's been doing that for years. With the same three Zep songs 
I wonder if Sammy Hagar was listening to this when he couldn't drive 55?  I would be willing to bet this was in the tape deck.

Thanks Y'all

Damn I'm 13 again and jamming loud and proud
The first Zep album... five more to come!!!
Among the very best sub-three-minute songs in the catalog.
ho il disco! sembra incredibile avevo 14 anni!
still holds up
yes, yes, yes
excellent song - precursor to punk frenzy

Not just funny....very untrue and, HAS to be musically impaired, to say such a thing about a band whose music still kicks ass to this day!!! Not to mention, the heap of awards they achieved!!

Bill's not much of a Zeppelin fan, is he? {#Angel}
 
Lol! What got me chuckling ,was that Bill played the Zep number, then followed it with Time Machine!!! Would love to time machine back to Zep's heyday!!! Fav band if all time! Have had collection twice....1st, all cassettes....then, with modern tech, all CD's!! And, btw, what Plant is doing now with A. Krauss...nearly as good as the Zep of days gone by!!! Good pair up, those 2!!
  Go Bill, GO!!!!
WOW! Three LZ in a row! What a treat. Now I am ready to go for the day.

Communication upgrade. 
when I was young, I was trading my records, never traded zeps...

Among the best two minutes, 30 seconds in rock.

The most overrated? Probably not because they were pretty damn good. Overplayed? YES, YES, YES, totally. I wish there was a Led Zeppelin filter button because I get tired of hitting PSD. 
YES!!!!!{#Dancingbanana_2}
I checked the news just to make sure one of the members of Led Zeppelin didn’t die or something. This is such an anomaly. 2 in a row.

 Your Time is Gonna Come and this track, both 10s for me. 
Long Live RP!

Nice! How can anybody split up these, let alone the entire albumn...right! Back in a bit...going to do just that {#Idea}

Nice double play of Zeppelin!
It's actually illegal in my county (Suffolk) to play this song at less than 85 decibels. Crank that is right!
God I love hearing a couple of Led Zeppelin's in a row. "Getting The Led Out" is what my hometown radio station used to call it. Thanks for playing pure awesomeness, Radio Paradise! Zach
When in doubt....

Fuckin' Zep       : )

Two in a row? Cool
 
Hard to believe how hard-wired the urge to crank it on this one is; how satisfying the response, and how rich the gratification. Rock it!
What a great set of music!!!!
 
Seems like a great way to warm things up.

What is that strange sound? It reminds of something that was was once beautiful and exciting and crazy.

Oh yeah...it's called Rock N Roll.

Aha.  So Bill also has trouble deciding on just one Led Zep song to play.
Back to Back! Love it!
Can't get enough Led Zeppelin 
WooHoo!!! Keep it going, Bill!!
whoah... let's make it three-fer!
Two LZ in row! Marry me, Bill!! :-)
2fer.  Thanks RP!! {#Cheers}

HAHAHAHA. Not really a bunch of opinions that proved their worth. 
From first cut to last, this is merely the very essence of blues-based peel-your-ears-off r and r.  

 
“In their willingness to waste their considerable talent on unworthy material the Zeppelin has produced an album which is sadly reminiscent of
Top Nominee for the Best Howling Throat Scorching Scream in the History of Rock and Roll 
A Led Zeppelin Twofer! 

Awesome!

And I normally don't use the word "Awesome" that often. Usually only when referring to the Grand Canyon or when my wife disrobes in our bedroom. :-)
Good God Man!!  Two in a row??   {#Clap}

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!  That's pretty funny!  (Thanks for playing the three of 'em straight through, Bill!)
Just play the whole album please!
WOOHOO!!  A Led Zeppelin morning!  {#Dancingbanana}
What's happening? Back to Back!!  {#Cheers}
That's the way you do. These three songs need to be heard back to back to back. What a LP. 16 when it was released and hardly left my turntable.
Genius
ROCK AND ROLL!!!!!  Nice set Bill!
Fantastic idea!!

Bill, you should do an weekly "play an entire classic album" along with your commentary on the history and making of the album (who wrote the songs, produced it, engineered, play on, interesting side notes, etc). I think a bunch of listeners would tune in for that.
 


I can't stop my foot from tapping......

I think you need to go back a few years.  Also, the diversity between these Zep songs is incredible!
