摇滚:Stairway To Heaven齐柏林飞艇

英文歌词：

there's a lady who's sure
all that glitters¹ is gold
and she's buying a stairway to heaven.
when she gets there she knows
if the stores are all closed
with a word she can get what she came for.
ooh, ooh, and she's buying a stairway to heaven.
there's a sign on the wall
but she wants to be sure
'cause you know sometimes words have two meanings.
in a tree by the brook
there's a songbird who sings,
sometimes all of our thoughts are misgiven².
ooh, it makes me wonder,
ooh, it makes me wonder.
there's a feeling i get
when i look to the west,
and my spirit is crying for leaving.
in my thoughts i have seen
rings of smoke through the trees,
and the voices of those who stand looking.
ooh, it makes me wonder,
ooh, it really makes me wonder.
and it's whispered that soon
if we all call the tune³
then the piper will lead us to reason.
and a new day will dawn
for those who stand long
and the forests will echo⁴ with laughter.
if there's a bustle⁵ in your hedgerow
don't be alarmed now,
it's just a spring clean for the may queen.
yes, there are two paths you can go by
but in the long run
there's still time to change the road you're on.
and it makes me wonder.
your head is humming and it won't go
in case you don't know,
the piper's calling you to join him,
dear lady, can you hear the wind blow,
and did you know
your stairway lies on the whispering wind.
and as we wind on down the road
our shadows taller than our soul.
there walks a lady we all know
who shines white light and wants to show
how ev'rything still turns to gold.
and if you listen very hard
the tune will come to you at last.
when all are one and one is all
to be a rock and not to roll.
and she's buying a stairway to heaven

Led Zeppelin是一支权威性的重金属乐队，这不仅是因为他们用爆裂的噪音来诠释布鲁斯，更重要的是他们将神话、神秘主义及其他许多风格（最显著的是世界音乐和英国民歌）融入他们的音乐。Led Zeppelin很神秘，他们很少接受采访，因为音乐新闻界厌恶他们；因此，歌迷只有通过唱片和演唱会了解他们。比其他乐队更强的是，Led Zeppelin确定了album-oriented rock（以专辑而非单曲为主导的摇滚）的概念，他们拒绝从专辑中拿出较流行的歌曲作为单曲发行。正因如此，他们确立了重金属的统治地位。
