I'm digging into some Led Zeppelin nowadays, as I posted earlier. I've always liked classic rock (especially listening to it on car rides with my dad when we go skiing/hiking), but I for SOME CRAZY reason have never educated myself in LZ. When my dad and I saw "It Might Get Loud...", a documentary that takes three guitarists, Jimmy Page, The Edge (from U2) and Jack White, puts them in a room and has them talk about and play guitar together, we were awestruck by Page's obvious superiority to the other guys. This was especially shown off when Page started playing the rifts of "Whole Lotta Love", leaving The Edge and Jack White in complete "we are not worthy" states of being.
Anyway, this song is so flipping good. I'm sick of so many songs today that rely on keyboard beats and minimalist words and somehow are popular--people need to start writing great lyrics and music again. Ughhh.

Merry Christmas, in a different way...
I will post about my home made sugar cookies and things later.
More important to share is the awesome gift my dad got me: "Mothership" by Led Zeppelin, which includes 2 discs of music and 1 DVD of concert footage.
At one point, Jimmy Page starts playing his guitar with a violin bow.
So effing good.
What is and what should never be
If I say to you tomorrow,
Take my hand child come with me,
It's to a castle I will take you,
Where what's to be they say will be.
Catch the wind see us spin,
Sail away leave the day,
Way up high in the sky.
But the wind won't blow,
You really shouldn't go,
It only goes to show.
That you will be mine,
By taking our time.
And if you say to me tomorrow,
Oh what fun it all would be,
Then what's to stop us pretty baby,
But what is and what should never be.
Catch the wind see us spin,
Sail away leave the day,
Way up high in the sky.
But the wind won't blow,
You really shouldn't go,
It only goes to show.
That you will be mine,
By taking our time.
So if you wake up with the sunrise,
And all your dreams are still as new,
And happiness is what you need so bad,
Girl the answer lies with you.
Catch the wind see us spin,
Sail away leave the day,
Way up high in the sky.
But the wind won't blow,
You really shouldn't go,
It only goes to show.
That you will be mine,
By taking our time.
Everybody I know seems to know me well,
But does anybody know I'm gonna move like hell?
