I was never much of a Zeppelin fan, and because of that I’ve often had to hear a lot of Carl from my two best friends (who are, well, Zeppelin fanatics)

I remember when I once told them my favourite Zeppelin song was „All of my love”
And the whole conversation looked a bit like: „Heresy! Blasphemy! Hang him!”

I mean, you know, I loved Stairway to Heaven when I was like 12
And a couple of others
But then I quickly here tired of them
And started to think of them as this sort of One Trick Pony band
There’s only as much as I can listen to great musicians playing mediocre songs

And then, about a year ago, my father showed me their „reggae” tune (D’yer Mak’er), and I instantly loved the track
But I didn’t go out to listen to more tracks and change my mind

And just last week I found this lovely piece of music:


I was casualy listening to one of my Beatles playlists
And I forgot to put it in loop
And so Spotify started recomending me tracks based on the playlist

So, this track comes in, and I’m like „wow, what a great song, the hell is this?”
And then the singer started singing, and I was like „Damn, the guy sings an awful lot like Robert Plant”
So I checked what was it, and here I am.

I’m still not a Zeppelin fan, but damn, sometimes they get it right
