10 Best Led Zeppelin Songs Of All Time

6. The Battle Of Evermore

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-21AtiWV3TE One of Zeppelin€™s finest compositions is immeasurably enhanced by the brilliance of Sandy Denny from Fairport Convention completely stealing the show. Written on a mandolin by Jimmy Page, the vocals are delivered in a narrator/crier format; Plant crooning the lead and Denny€™s hauntingly beautiful voice responding with lyrics drenched in Tolkien-esque imagery. Indeed, the song is said to directly reference the third Lord Of The Rings novel and while that may seem overly twee nowadays, the sheer beauty of the duo€™s vocals elevate this song into a folk classic.

Chris James Peet says hello. His interests include hoping for the best and sitting in chairs. He much prefers moaning to counting his blessings and suffers fools gladly. He also likes to look out of the window and check what's in the fridge but he hates standing up, dripping taps and reality.
