Zeppelin fans: Top 10 favorite LZ songs of all times

[LynneSin]

I'm one of those quirky fans that love some of the obscure stuff more than the mainstream. My top #10 would be:

1. Ramble On
   
2. What is and What Should Never Be
   
3. Misty Mountain Hop
   
4. The Rover
   
5. That's the Way
   
6. Over the Hills and Far Away
   
7. In the Evening
   
8. Night Flight
   
9. Your Time is Gonna Come
   
10. Kashmir
    

BTW, ask me this question again in 2 weeks and it's very likely that #1 & #2 will swap - I just adore those 2 songs

[Taverner]

1. Mine...in no particular order

Ten Years Gone
Since I've Been Loving You
Bron-Yr-Aur
Night Flight
Wanton Song
Achillies Last Stand
No Quarter
Song Remains the Same/Rain Song
When the Levee Breaks
The Rover

[southpaw]

2. Not in order, and the list is prone to changing...

Hots on for Nowhere
D'yer Mak'er
Achilles' Last Stand
Over the Hills and Far Away
Kashmir
Houses of the Holy
Misty Mountain Hop
I Can't Quit You, Baby (Coda version)
No Quarter
In the Evening

[LynneSin]

4. I love In The Evening because....

...the first time I got to see anything Zeppelin related was Robert Plant back in the summer of 88 at Hersheypark. He opened with that song and the beginning has this mystical feeling to it that was extended just a bit for the concert to warm up the crowd. Then when you break into the song you find out it's really just a great rocking song

[southpaw]

5. That intro is really atmospheric...

Makes me picture a middle-eastern skyline (with onion domes, etc.) silhouetted against an orange sunset.

[Squeech]

3. I like

the "guitar army" stuff. Here's a list (written in haste, subject to change):

The Song Remains the Same
Nobody's Fault but Mine
Kashmir
Communication Breakdown
Immigrant Song
Whole Lotta Love
Good Times Bad Times
Dancing Days
In the Light
Gallows Pole

[Taverner]

6. Song Remains the Same has 5 seperate guitar tracks

So yes, definitely a guitar army behind it!

[ProfessorGAC]

24. You Sure About That?

It sounds like 5 parts, but a lot more tracks than that. Some of those tracks sound multed 3 or 4 times. I would have guessed they used at least a dozen guitar tracks on that song!
The Professor

[Taverner]

26. Well I counted 5, but you're probably right

[jus_the_facts]

7. mine....

1. The Rain Song

2. Thank You

3. Boogie With Stu

4. Ramble On

5. Misty Mountain Hop

6. When The Levee Breaks

7. Over The Hills and Far Away

8. The Ocean

9. Down By The Seaside

10. Moby Dick

[LynneSin]

8. The Ocean would have been #11

:D

[jus_the_facts]

9. They're ALL my favorites...it's extremely difficult to only pick 10....

:D

:hi:

[Joe Fields]

10. I could seriously never do what you do. I love Zeppelin and

the Beatles so much, it would be like choosing which one of my loved oned I love the most. I play Zeppelin's music all the time, and still find it fresh. And I listen to just about everything they did. I really couldn't choose.

[LynneSin]

11. I know the feeling - any given day that list could change

it really depends on my mood!!

[cedahlia]

12. Good question...

Misty Mountain Hop
Over the Hills and Far Away
Fool in the Rain
Going to California
The Ocean
Ramble On
What is and What Should Never Be
Dancing Days
Thank You
Dazed and Confused

[carlydenise]

13. my top 10

1. Whole Lotta Love (listen to this with ear buds on, man it's a trip)
2. Black Dog
3. Misty Mountain Hop
4. Rock n Roll
5. All My Love
6. The Song Remains the Same
7. Over the Hills
8. Thank You
9. Fool in the Rain
10. Dazed and Confused

Robert Plant was the sexiest thing I ever laid eyes on at the time.

[LynneSin]

15. And he still is!!

[Zomby Woof]

14. If 11 is good enough for Spinal Tap...

1. Since I've Been Loving You
2. No Quarter
3. Kashmir
4. Tangerine
5. Over the Hills and Far Away
6. Tea For One
7. Trampled Underfoot
8. The Rain Song
9. I'm Gonna Crawl
10. Fool In The Rain
11. Going To California

Of course, the list is subject to revision...

[warrens]

16. Dancin Days and Gallows Pole

Very underrated, and both sound even better now than they did then. They're the main reason I can listen to Zep again after so many years of them being overplayed.

[ProfessorGAC]

23. Out On The Tiles Is On My List

But, a lot of mine would be the same as yours. I would not have Ramble On in my Top 10 though. Doesn't do much for me.

I might add 4 Sticks, too, and take off Night Flight. That one is good, but i could kick it out of the top 10!
The Professor

[skooooo]

25. Led Zeppelin 3 is the best album, imo (nt)

[GCP]

27. Ramble On is definitely my favorite LZ track

I love the yearning quality of it.
Otherwise I think the only change to your list, Lynne, would be to include "Going To California" somewhere on there.
