The Song Remains The Same Lyrics


The Song Remains The Same Song Chart
  • The lyrics are based on Robert Plant's belief that music is universal. He told NME in 1973: "Every time I sing that, I just picture the fact that I've been round and round the world, and at the root of it all there's a common denominator for everybody. The common denominator is what makes it good or bad, whether it's a Led Zeppelin or an Alice Cooper."
  • The title was used for a concert film and soundtrack released in 1976. Footage from three 1973 Madison Square Garden shows was mixed with scenes of the band acting out their "fantasies." The band was not happy with the results.
  • A live favorite, Led Zeppelin used this to open concerts during their 1977 US tour.
  • This was an instrumental called "The Overture" before Robert Plant put lyrics to it. Led Zeppelin played it as shows before it was fully formed - Plant introduced it as "The Campaign" before the title was changed.
  • Plant's vocals were sped-up.
  • Jimmy Page always used his legendary double-necked guitar to play this live. He used the same guitar on "The Rain Song" which would always directly follow it. (thanks, Adrian - Wilmington, DE)
  • This is one of Led Zeppelin's songs that contains the most overdubs on guitar. The introduction is quite similar to "Tinker Tailor Soldier Sailor" by The Yardbirds, which was also written by Jimmy Page. (thanks, Bertrand - Paris, France)

    Surface Envy Lyrics


    Throw me a rope, give me a leg
    I haven't seen daylight in what must be day
    I took the long way down, lost track of myself
    Confidence fell down the steepest of slopes
    I'll row you an ocean, I could do more
    I feel so much stronger, now that you're here
    We've got so much to do, let me make that clear

    We win, we lose, only together do we break the rules
    We win, we lose, only together do we make the rules

    I'm breaking the surface, tasting the air
    I'm reaching for things like never before
    The anchor is heavy, I can't hold the weight
    The guilt holds me down, won't let me be myself
    Suck it all in, suck it all up
    Let go of thoughts holding me back
    I'll push twice as hard towards it you see
    And the past falls away to the bottom of the deep

    When we leave say goodbye to your old way of life
    I can breathe way up high now it's our turn to fly

  • This is a track from No Cities to Love, Sleater-Kinney's first album after a decade long hiatus. Corin Tucker wrote the song to capture the struggle and triumph of reviving the band. She explained to NME: "That is definitely written with the idea of the moment when we were talking about being a band again. And what an incredible opportunity and a giant challenge that is to me - being a mom and trying to have this really intense career."

  • The title is pronounced "Jamaica," as spoken by the locals in that country. It is a play on the phrase "did you make her":

    "She went to the Caribbean."
    "Jamaica?"
    "No, she went on her own."

    The title could also be a sexual reference.
  • Many people thought the title was pronounced "Dear Maker" and read way too much into it. Jimmy Page had an interest in the occult and Robert Plant wrote some very spiritual lyrics, which led to deeper meanings in many of Led Zeppelin's songs, but not this one.
  • This song was meant to imitate reggae and its "dub" derivative emerging from Jamaica in the early '70s. Bonham's inability to replicate a reggae beat on his drums, however, turned the song into an odd melange of what sounded like '50s doo-wop and reggae. This song and "The Crunge" are considered the two "joke" songs on the album. (thanks, John - Boca Raton, FL)
  • Led Zeppelin had a curious history of single releases in America. While the band was active, they released just 10 singles (they didn't release any in the UK while they were extant), which typically did just well enough to get a mention from Casey Kasem on American Top 40. "D'yer Mak'er" was one of those singles (backed with "The Crunge"), peaking at #20. Zeppelin was never a "singles band," so these releases were intended to drive sales of the albums, which they did. They often sold well enough to make the charts, however, leaving poor Mr. Kasem to wonder how to pronounce the title to this one.
  • The distinctive drum sound was created by placing three microphones a good distance away from John Bonham's drums.
  • Led Zeppelin never performed this live. It would have been difficult to re-create the reggae band.
  • This is one of the few Zeppelin songs where all four members share the composer credit.
  • Sheryl Crow sang this on Encomium, the 1995 Led Zeppelin tribute album.

  • This evolved from the Yardbirds song "White Summer," an acoustic solo by Jimmy Page. Many of the same riffs and chords are in it. After The Yardbirds broke up, Led Zeppelin continued to play "White Summer" live. (thanks, Bartholemew - Cork, Ireland)
  • This was one of the few Led Zeppelin songs released as a single in the US. It made it only to #51.
  • The music was inspired by Jimmy Page's Celtic ancestry.
  • This began as an instrumental. Robert Plant came up with backing tracks and then lyrics.
  • Plant's lyrics were inspired by the J.R.R. Tolkien book The Hobbit , and to Tolkein's 1915 poem of the same name . "Over The Hills And Far Away" describes the adventure the Hobbits embark on.
  • Page and Plant started writing this in 1970 at Bron-yr-Aur, the cottage in Wales they went to after a grueling US tour. It had no electricity or running water.
  • There's an old English song called "Over The Hills And Far Away" that dates back to the 18th century (It appears in John Gay's play The Beggar's Opera). This might be where the band got the title. (thanks, Mason - Greenville, NC)
  • If you listen closely, you can hear an acoustic guitar playing throughout the song. (thanks, Marshall - Gallatin, TN)

    Wild Tales Lyrics


    You came over here with Wild Tales from the East
    About the floods that are rushing 'round your door
    About your old lady who up and walked away from your feast,

    So you flew your bike over Highway 1
    You were lucky to land on your feet
    And you started crying 'cause you bent the key,
    But it was your lady that landed underneath.

    And it is alright
    Take it as it comes
    You will find a way
    To get there.

    So tell me your company's being reviewed,
    By the people that sit on the stand,
    And you tell me your factory's been renewed,
    With computers instead of hands.

    So you filmed Old faithful in super-8
    And you monitored all of her calls
    Cause you caught the milkman with double-cream
    He was delivering down your halls.

    But its all right
    Take it as it comes
    You will find a way
    To get there.

    Wild Tales Song Chart
  • Nash expected the Wild Tales album to chart higher than #34 on the Billboard 200 and blamed Atlantic Records for not promoting it enough. He would leave the label shortly after and sign on to ABC Records with partner David Crosby.
  • Sound engineer Don Gooch: "'Wild Tales' is based on a couple of real stories, in particular the milkman part ('Cause you caught the milkman with double cream, he was delivering down your halls') was part of a story that someone Graham had met had related and it was so bizarre he wrote the song around it. A lot of the other songs are based on his personal experiences and may be too personal to divulge." (thanks, DeeTheWriter - Saint Petersburg, Russia Federation)
  • The album's darker tone is often attributed to the murder of Nash's girlfriend Amy Gossage, but that didn't occur until over a year after it was released. It was actually his breakups with Rita Coolidge (who'd previously left his CSNY bandmate Stephen Stills to be with him) and Joni Mitchell (who'd had a love affair with bandmate David Crosby) that put him in a somber mood. Mitchell contributed vocals on another of the album's tracks, "Another Sleep Song."
  • Nash borrowed the song/album title for his 2013 memoir, Wild Tales: A Rock & Roll Life.

  • Led Zeppelin Songs - Black Dog

    Led Zeppelin - Black Dog Lyrics and Youtube Music Videos

    Album: Led Zeppelin 4
    Released: 1971

    Black Dog Lyrics


    Black Dog Song Chart
  • The title does not appear in the lyrics, and has nothing to do with the song itself. The band worked up the song at Headley Grange, which was a mansion in Hampshire, England. Headley Grange was out in the country, surrounded by woods. A nameless black Labrador Retriever would wander the grounds, and the band would feed it. When they needed a name for this track - which didn't have an obvious title - they thought of the canine and went with "Black Dog."
  • Zeppelin bass player John Paul Jones got the idea for this song after hearing Muddy Waters' 1968 album Electric Mud. He wanted to try "Electric Blues with a rolling bass part," and "a riff that would be like a linear journey."

    Jones rarely had completed songs together, but the bits and pieces he brought to Led Zeppelin's writing sessions proved worthy. When they started putting the album together, Jones introduced this riff, the song started to form. The first version Jones played was comically complex. "It was originally all in 3/16 time, but no one could keep up with that," he said.

    When the mobile recording studio (owned by The Rolling Stones) showed up at the mansion, this song was ready to go and recorded there.
  • This is the first track on Led Zeppelin 4, which became the band's best-selling album. A wide range of musical styles show up on the set, with "Black Dog" exemplifying the blues-rock that was the bedrock of the band's sound.

    The album itself is technically untitled, with symbols on the cover instead of words., but since it was their fourth album, it became known as Led Zeppelin 4. Some fans also referred to it as "ZoSo," which is a rough translation Jimmy Page's symbol.
  • In this song, Robert Plant is singing about a woman who appeals to his prurient interests, but is clearly no good for him - he tells himself he'd rather have a "steady rollin' woman" come his way.

    Robert Plant explained in an interview with Cameron Crowe: "Not all my stuff is meant to be scrutinized. Things like 'Black Dog' are blatant, let's-do-it-in-the-bath type things, but they make their point just the same."
  • The start-and-stop a cappella verses were inspired by Fleetwood Mac's 1969 song "Oh Well." Before Stevie Nicks and Lindsey Buckingham joined Fleetwood Mac in 1974, they were more of a Blues band led by guitarist Peter Green. Jimmy Page and The Black Crowes performed "Oh Well" on their 1999 tour and included it on the album Live At The Greek.
  • The lyrics never approached "Stairway To Heaven" level scrutiny, but were still subject to some interesting interpretations. Jimmy Page's interest in the occultist Aleister Crowley, combined with the image of the Hermit (from the Tarot) in the album art and the band's disappearance when they set off to Headley Grange to record, led some listeners to conclude that the titular dog was some kind of hellhound, and that the line, "Eyes that shine burning red, dreams of you all through my head," had something to do with Satan.
  • The sounds at the beginning are Jimmy Page warming up his guitar. He called it "Waking up the army of guitars."
  • Even by Led Zeppelin standards, this is a very complex song musically, with a chaotic blend of riffs and time signatures that make it very difficult to play and a testament to the band's musicianship. When the drums and guitar kick in, they're actually playing completely different patterns, which is something devised by John Paul Jones. The only real consistent element in the song are the vocal interludes. This is not a song you'd want to dance to.
  • The songwriting credits on this one read: John Paul Jones/Jimmy Page/Robert Plant. Some bands - like U2 and R.E.M. - would credit every member on their original songs, but Zeppelin decided amongst themselves who would get the credits (and associated royalties). Page and Plant were almost always listed (Plant handled lyrics), but whether Jones or Bonham showed up as a writer depended on their contributions. This track was one where Jones clearly deserved a credit; he is also listed on the album as a co-writer of "Rock And Roll," "Misty Mountain Hop" and "When The Levee Breaks."
  • Robert Plant's vocal was recorded in just two takes, marking one of his most memorable performances. His vocal booth was the drawing room at the Headley Grange mansion, which engineer Andy Johns set up with egg crates covering the walls as a sound-soak.
  • The guitars are heavily layered. Four separate Jimmy Page guitar tracks were overdubbed. Page recorded the guitar directly into a 1176 limiter preamp (manufactured by Universal Audio), distorted the stages of it, and then sent that to a normally operating limiter. In other words, no guitar amplifier was used in the recording process. (thanks, Kevin - San Antonio, Texas, TX)
  • It has been claimed that John Paul Jones arranged the complicated time signatures so nobody would be able to cover the song. Asked about the allegations during Australia's Triple M Led Zeppelin special, he responded by saying the story was just a myth, adding: "I actually wrote it in rehearsal from Jimmy's house on the train. My dad was a musician and he showed me a way of writing down notation on anything. And so I wrote the riff to 'Black Dog' on the back of a train ticket which I unfortunately don't have."
  • Plant sampled this on his solo hit "Tall Cool One."
  • "Whole Lotta Love" made #4 on the US Hot 100, and "Black Dog" was their next highest-charting song. Most of their tracks were not released as singles, and fans of the band were far more likely buy the albums.
  • As Robert Plant sings every line after the music stops, you can faintly hear Bonham tapping his drumsticks together to keep the time. (thanks, Adrian - Wilmington, DE)
  • This was one of the few songs for which John Paul Jones used a pick to play his bass.
  • Robert Plant would sometimes improvise some of the lyrics in concert, substituting lines like, "I've got a girl that loves me so love me so sweet jelly roll." (thanks, Thomas - Toronto, Canada, for above 2)
  • Apparently, Fergie from the Black-Eyed Peas can knock out a killer version of this song. Slash from Guns 'N' Roses told NME, March 22, 2010: "I first heard Fergie three years ago at a fundraiser in LA, where I was one of many guests with the Black-Eyed Peas. I was going to play during a rock medley, and in walks this little blonde girl from Orange County, and she sang 'Black Dog‚' better than any guy I'd ever heard.'' (thanks, DeeTheWriter - Saint Petersburg, Russia Federation)
  • Note the lyrics, "Baby, when you walk that way, watch your honey drip, can't keep away." In 1981, Robert Plant and Jimmy Page formed a group called The Honeydrippers, which scored a hit with a remake of "Sea of Love."
  • Page and Plant performed an updated version of this song on their 1995 tour.
  • Led Zeppelin cover band Dread Zeppelin did a version of this mixed with Elvis' "Hound Dog" called "You Ain't Nuthin' But A Black Dog." Their lead singer is an Elvis impersonator.
  • In 2015, this was used in a commercial for the video game Destiny: The Taken King. Game action takes place as the song plays in the background.

    You got a brand of magic never fails
    You got some power in your corner now
    Some heavy ammunition in your camp
    You got some punch, pizzazz, yahoo and how
    See all you gotta do is rub that lamp
    And I'll say

    What will your pleasure be?
    Let me take your order
    Jot it down
    You ain't never had a Friend Like Me

    Life is your restaurant
    And I'm your maitre d'
    C'mon whisper what it is you want
    You ain't never had a friend like me

    Yes sir, we pride ourselves on service
    You're the boss
    The king, the shah
    Say what you wish
    It's yours, true dish
    How about a little more Baklava?

    I'm in the mood to help you dude
    You ain't never had a friend like me

    Can your friends do this?

    Do your friends pull this out their little hat?
    Can your friends go poof?
    Well, looky here
    Can your friends go, Abracadabra, let 'er rip
    And then make the sucker disappear?

    So dontcha sit there slack-jawed, buggy-eyed
    I'm here to answer all your midday prayers
    You got me bona fide, certified
    You got a genie for your chargé d'affaires
    I got a powerful urge to help you out
    So what-cha wish?

    Friend Like Me Song Chart
  • Written by composer Alan Menken and lyricist Howard Ashman, this song from Disney's Aladdin has the Genie (Robin Williams) promising Aladdin (Scott Weinger) that he can make all of his dreams come true with three wishes.
  • Menken and Ashman didn't write this with Robin Williams in mind, but the actor would make the number his own. Menken told Entertainment Weekly: "We didn't know who was going to play the genie when we wrote the song. We were looking at the character as black, a hipster, and I suggested a Fats Waller, Harlem stride-piano style from the '40s. When Robin Williams was suggested, my first thought was, 'Can he sing like Fats Waller?' Robin learned every note. He was working on Hook at the time, and he would come in after being stuck in a harness all day and sit at the piano and learn. When we went into the studio, we got exactly the Fats Waller performance we wanted, and then everyone said, 'Okay, but now can we let Robin do his thing?' He was amazing. That trumpet wah-wah-wah was supposed to be from an instrument, and he made it vocal. He took ahold of the creative process, both on that and 'Prince Ali' especially. My God, he went crazy on 'Prince Ali.' He was doing the Thanksgiving Day Parade, Arab-style."
  • This was nominated for both an Academy Award and Golden Globe for Best Original Song. It lost both to the film's "A Whole New World (Aladdin's Theme)," a collaboration between Menken and lyricist Tim Rice.

    The Battle Of Evermore Lyrics


    The Battle Of Evermore Song Chart
  • Robert Plant wrote the words to this acoustic song after reading a book on Scottish history. The lyrics are about the everlasting battle between night and day, which can also be interpreted as the battle between good and evil. (thanks, Graham - Atlanta, GA)
  • This is the only song Zeppelin ever recorded with a guest vocalist. Robert Plant felt he needed another voice to tell the story that plays out in the song, so Sandy Denny from Fairport Convention was brought in. Her vocals represent the people as the town crier, while Plant's voice is the narrator. Fairport Convention was a British folk group Zeppelin shared a bill with in 1970.

    This collaboration with Sandy Denny marked the first time Robert Plant did a duet with a woman. In later years, he had tremendous success singing with Alison Krauss; their 2007 album Raising Sand won a Grammy award for Album of the Year.
  • Sandy Denny was given a symbol on the album sleeve - three pyramids - to thank her. The four members of Led Zeppelin each designed their own symbols for the album. Denny died in 1978 from a brain hemorrhage resulting from a fall down the stairs.
  • Jimmy Page wrote the music on a mandolin he borrowed from John Paul Jones. He explained to Guitar Player magazine in 1977: "On 'The Battle of Evermore,' a mandolin was lying around. It wasn't mine, it was Jonesey's. I just picked it up, got the chords, and it sort of started happening. I did it more or less straight off. But, you see, that's fingerpicking again, going back to the studio days and developing a certain amount of technique – at least enough to be adapted and used. My fingerpicking is a sort of cross between Pete Seeger, Earl Scruggs, and total incompetence."
  • Led Zeppelin rarely played this live, but when they did, John Paul Jones sang Sandy Denny's part.
  • Many J.R.R. Tolkien fans see the lyrics as a reference to his book Return Of The King, where the lyrics could describe the Battle of Pelennor ("The drums will shake the castle wall, The ring wraiths ride in black"). Plant is a huge Tolkien fan, and referred to his books in "Ramble On" and "Misty Mountain Hop." (thanks, Ollie C - Hampshire, England)
  • A lot of this fits the battle of the Pelennor fields: "At last the sun is shining, The clouds of blue roll by" - as Sauron's army and influence advanced the sky darkened and when he lost this battle it became light again. But a lot doesn't fit to that particular battle/book, including the part about the angels of Avalon, as Avalon was not from Tolkien's world but the legends of Merlin and King Arthur. The song is not completely about that battle but there are references to Lord Of The Rings things like Ringwraiths and most of the song can be interpreted to be about it if you choose. (thanks, Caleb - Christchurch, New Zealand)
  • The word "Avalon" is Latin for "place with apples," and here is the part of the song Avalon is mentioned - "I'm waiting for the angels of Avalon, waiting for the eastern glow. The apples of the valley hold the seeds of happiness," so it may just mean "I'm waiting for the angels of place with apples." (thanks, Geno - North Riverside, IL)
  • Sound engineer Andy Johns said of the recording: "The band was sitting next to the chimney in Headley, drinking tea, when Jimmy grabbed a mandolin and started playing. I gave him a microphone and stuck a Gibson echo on his mandolin. Jimmy had brought this stuff before and had asked me to take a look at it. Suddenly Robert started singing and this amazing track was born from nowhere." (thanks, Bertrand - Paris, France)

  • The closing track from Tesla's Simplicity album, lead singer Jeff Keith told us that it's the song he most connects with on the set. Explaining the song's meaning, he said: "The first child for me to bring into the room is my 3-year-old son. So it's my first child to bring into the world. I thought, Wow, how would I treat this idea of a song to just say what would be my best collection of thoughts to help inspire this child to create his own path and make his own decisions? And that's probably why it's the most partial to me, because how would I turn to my son and say, 'Hey, here's the best suggestions and ideas that I can give you to try to make it through this wild and wacky world.'"

    Led Zeppelin - Rock And Roll Lyrics and Youtube Music Videos

    Album: Led Zeppelin 4

    Rock And Roll Lyrics


    Rock And Roll Song Chart
  • As the title suggests, the song is based on one of the most popular structures in rock and roll; namely, the 12 bar blues progression (in A). The phrase "Rock and Roll" was a term blues musicians used, which meant sex.
  • The band often used this either as an encore or to open live shows from 1971-1975.
  • This song came about when the band was working on "Four Sticks" at the Headley Grange mansion they had rented in Hampshire, England to record the album. With a pretty much unplayable drum pattern, John Bonham got frustrated with the session, and tensions rose. In a pique of anger, he started playing something completely different: a riff based on the intro to the 1957 Little Richard song "Keep a Knockin'" (Session great Earl Palmer was the drummer on that one).

    Infused with creative energy, they put "Four Sticks" aside and started working on this new song, which they called "It's Been a Long Time." Jimmy Page blasted out a guitar part, and the bones of the song were completed in about 30 minutes.
  • Nicky Hopkins played the piano on this track. Hopkins was a renowned session player who appeared on tracks for The Who, The Rolling Stones, The Beatles and many others.
  • Robert Plant wrote the lyrics, which were a response to critics who claimed their previous album, Led Zeppelin III, wasn't really rock and roll. Led Zeppelin III had more of an acoustic, folk sound, and Plant wanted to prove they could still rock out.
  • Plant, Jimmy Page, and John Paul Jones played this at Live Aid in 1985. It was the first time they played together since the death of John Bonham in 1980. Tony Thompson and Phil Collins sat in for Bonham on drums, which didn't go over well with Page and Plant. When the band reformed for a benefit show on December 10, 2007, it was with John Bonham's son Jason on drums. This was the last song they played at the show, which raised money for the Ahmet Ertegun education fund.
  • Besides Live Aid, the remaining members of Led Zeppelin played this on two other occasions. When Robert Plant's daughter Carmen turned 21 in 1989, they played it at her birthday party. They also played it at Jason Bonham's wedding in 1990. Jason is John Bonham's son, and he sat in on drums on both performances.
  • This has been covered by many other artists, including Def Leppard and Heart. In 2001, it was recorded by Double Trouble (Stevie Ray Vaughan's backup band), for their 2001 album Been A Long Time. Susan Tedeschi sang lead on the track.
  • All four band members got writing credits for this. Many Zeppelin songs are credited only to Page and Plant.
  • This was the first Led Zeppelin song used in a commercial. Cadillac used it to kick off a new advertising campaign in 2002 with the tagline "Breakthrough." The company was going for a hip, new image, since their audience was slowly dying off. The spots aired for the first time on the Super Bowl, and sales rose 16% the next year.
  • Stevie Nicks added this to her live set in 2001. (thanks, Kazryn - Potters Bar, England)
  • Since the death of his father, Jason Bonham has filled in behind the drum set for various Led Zeppelin reunion gigs. He told American Songwriter this is the hardest Zeppelin song to play as, "a lot of people out there try and play it, and really it's a two-handed shuffle all the way through, playing the sixteenth notes, it's not just boom bap-boom-bap-boom- bap, it's boom-boom-bap-bap-boom-boom-bap-bap on the snare and the hi-hat. It's a hard one to play properly."

The duo called this love-at-first-sight song, performed by Adams' Princess Giselle and Marsden's Prince Edward, "the pivotal assignment... because there were so many preconceptions with that number. We wanted to put it back in the era of Snow White and Cinderella, and write something that was reflective of that."
  • Even with Disney veteran Menken on board, the team had trouble capturing the feel of the company's pioneering classics. He explained to Entertainment Weekly: "Giselle is very much a Walt-era Disney heroine, more of a Cinderella than a Belle. We needed a 'classic Walt' sound, but no one could agree on what that was because we weren't around for it! Everyone had an opinion. Our director, Kevin Lima - I love this guy and he's a great director, but he could not make up his mind on the music. We had to fly him to my studio in New York and sit him down and not let him leave until he had agreed on a piece of music because otherwise it was just going to go on forever."
