Robert Plant, ‘Stairway to Heaven’
Led Zeppelin would possibly be back together if it weren’t for “that bloody wedding song,” as Robert Plant refers to ‘Stairway.’ He told the Los Angeles Times in 1988, “I’d break out in hives if I had to sing that song in every show. I wrote those lyrics and found that song to be of some importance and consequence in 1971, but 17 years later, I don’t know. It’s just not for me.” And how about those Satanic back maskings, Mr. Plant?
That makes me feel good, because I fucking hate that song.
