This is one where it just gets better and better the more you listen to it. Lyrics, instrumentals, song production, it’s all there.

[@BBaldwin]

Still stunning after all these decades. That solo will make a grown man get misty eyed..

[@noteverton]

...yep - every time.

[@darrend6095]

Simply the best

[@kowanmcgarry]

Greatest song not only on this album but maybe in the entire career of Led Zeppelin.

[@gustavobarreda438]

One of their best for sure.. Timeless!!

[@juaneato]

100% Agree! It’s their most underrated and understated masterpieces. My favorite Zep tune…sublime.

[@kowanmcgarry]

@@juaneato Yes, if only more people liked this song.

[@juaneato]

@@kowanmcgarry I’d heard it all my life and liked it but it wasn’t until I got much older that it really sunk in.

[@kowanmcgarry]

@@juaneato Yes, your right.

[@mistymountainhop71]

The lyrics are beautiful, the musicianship is amazing, a perfect song 💞 one for eternity

[@debbienye6002]

Not only one of the best Led Zeppelin songs, it's one of the best songs ever!

[@jensclarberg6419]

Definitely a top 5 song, very underrated.

[@gabmar6554]

Ten Years Gone is like the memory of a walk during a warm sunset on a beach. ...a recall of a bliss

[@susanvaughn8234]

This is one of my favorites by them! I would listen to this album at night before bed and when I got to this song it would relax me. Feeling so nostalgic right now. 😌

[@John_Locke_108]

In his days before Zep, Plant was in a music group and the group was gaining traction. His girlfriend at the time didn't like it and told him that he had to choose either her or his music. He choose music.

[@Kashmir.820]

Thank goodness for everyone & hopefully she realized what a crazy ultimatum she put out there ….you know all things considered!!!!

[@mancbiker17]

Just a perfectly crafted and executed song. One of my favourite Zep tracks

[@williamcabell142]

One of my favorites on this Album! GOATS! 😎👏👏👏👏👏👏🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@mikecalderon5251]

I was in 8th grade and heard this song, In the Light, and Kashmir on the radio. They were from the same album and I went to the record store to buy it with my allowance. When I got there, I found out that it was a double album and I didn't have enough to buy it. I went home so disappointed. But I was there the following week when the store opened. One of the best albums ever!

[@henriettaskolnick4445]

This song is filled with lush instrumentation. Jimmy orchestrated 14 tracks worth of guitars to come up with this masterpiece; meticulously layering and overdubbing until perfect. In an interview, when asked what gambles Robert had taken in his life/career, he told the story of this song and said before joining Zep, a former girlfriend, whom he loved dearly, (widely believed to be Shirley Wilson, his wife's sister) gave him the ultimatum of being with her or continuing music. Obviously he gambled on music. When played live, Jonesy would play a triple-necked guitar that had a mandolin at the top, 12-string in the middle, then 6-string while playing bass pedals with his feet. When all that proved to be too cumbersome, they dropped it from the set. It would get brought back near the end of their days, notably at Knebworth where Jimmy played it using a guitar fit with B-bender.

[@vanhalenrulz9474]

Led Zeppelin's real Stairway To Heaven.

[@ZippyThePinhead]

I love to see people who haven't heard a piece of music before, and are open enough to at least give it a chance, and then enjoy it. I don't care if your black, white, pink, purple, or green, young, or old whatever. Music offers a wide expanse of possibilities, and granted you're not gonna like everything out there, but at least give other stuff outside your comfort zone a chance, you might be pleasantly surprised.

[@benjaminz2523]

What the hell is green? Wouldn't they be from like Mars or something? What's purple...what are u talking about

[@tektoniks_architects]

Thank You, Rain Song, Ten Years Gone.....ballad greatness......

[@juliemanarin4127]

Isn't this magnificent?

[@gabmar6554]

oh yes it is ..with this beautiful touch of witfullness one of the greatest song of Zep

[@gwwasham]

You got that right, Julie.

[@kenhewitt7357]

Another classic, never gets old, just gets better.

[@stell_r5829]

So I'm 63 year old Zepp fan and when one of my younger work mates say Zeppelin is a stale old "Heavy Metal Band", I play them this or 'All of my Love"... shuts them up

[@Star_R666]

Only one word for Zep - TIMELESS

[@gustavobarreda438]

Yeahhhh.. The band of my life.. Forever..

[@clab5864]

Pages guitar work, goosebumps everytime.

[@1989DGK]

Thought I was the only one lol

[@gavinblenkinsop6250]

A song with a guitar sound so meaty and thick that in order to play it live John Paul Jones had a 3-necked guitar made…fact haha

[@mancbiker17]

An ex girlfriend of mine was listening to it for the first time and was loving it. Then that guitar solo kicked in and she said “oh that noisy guitar ruins it”…..I had to have her committed after that

[@BBaldwin]

Jonesy also played bass pedals with it!!

[@Allen.Mir3681]

My introduction to Led Zeppelin, was through JB drums early 1970s each song grows on you in a very positive way..

[@robertwatson39]

Can you believe it, it's been about 40 years since this album came out. It like all the Led Zeppelin tracks/albums still hold their own. Getting a bit sad as there are only 3 albums left.

[@rafaelorantes7185]

More like 46 years.

[@robertwatson39]

@@rafaelorantes7185 well Mate it's actually 53 yrs, but I didn't want to big note myself lol.

[@rafaelorantes7185]

It’s 46 for this album, about 53 since their formation.

[@rebeccahopkins9522]

One of my favorite Zeppelin song, thank you for reacting to it. If this song doesn’t touch your soul, you don’t have one. Can you please react to In The Light? My absolute favorite. Long live the mighty Zeppelin, the gods of rock.

[@patricknicolucci5073]

one of my all time favorite Zep songs.

[@JimmyPlato1]

I was in junior high school when this album came out in 1975. This album just blew me away. This album, along with "The Chicago Transit Authority" album, are the 2 best rock albums of all time (double record sets get the edge in my opinion Beatles fans!).

[@steverickenbacher7110]

The Beatles did release a double album and it was pretty damned great, so I don't know where that comment comes from.

[@JimmyPlato1]

@@steverickenbacher7110 Of course The White Album is right up there at the top of any rock double album list. Great album....

[@charleswolford3491]

Theirs never any warning, they always surprise you with the change. They lure you in and they strike 🎸

[@betseyr.9081]

Absolutely LOVE this song!!!! It's overlooked and that's so unfair! Has to be their power ballad running close behind Stairway... just didn't get the airplay it deserved.

[@christopherone1]

OVERLOOKED, huh? By whom, anyone who luvs Zep loves this song. And, arguably The Rain Song is their most beautiful ballad, one of the most beautiful, a masterpiece of music and art, craft. Page is amazing.

[@betseyr.9081]

@@christopherone1 Overlooked by new listeners because they have never heard of it & it gets very little airplay these days, go search for reaction videos for Ten Years Gone, it''s like 2, that's overlooked. Rain Song would be 3 on my list of ballads by Zep but I understand you ranking it #1

[@Marcelobm04]

This is my favorite Zeppelin song, it’s only amazing, the whole song, I love it

[@gwwasham]

Love to see people enjoying music like I do.

[@snowscythe]

I LOVE DJ’s reaction when the percussion hits. Came running to find this one because if there’s one Zep song I could erase from my memory just to hear it again for the first time, it would be this one.

[@Young_Jim]

Although Stairway to Heaven is a great track, this has always been my favourite Zep piece.

[@bowtiefidenine]

My favorite song on this album ❤

[@toddmichelfelder3417]

One of the best songs ever!! The layered guitars are incredible!!!!👏👏

[@gustavobarreda438]

The favourite Zep song of a brother who passed away....

Thank You ❤❤❤❤ 🎉🎉🎉🎉

I think hearing this album at my friend's pool in the 70's goes down as positively influencial ... Historical lol. I was an instant fan. Fun to watch this first time reaction

reminds me a lot of Dear Prudence

[@johnroetker5067]

Was going to be an instrumental, but Page heard the lyrics that Percy wrote.

[@tomknoll796]

I always point people in the direction of this guitar solo for justification of just exactly why Jimmy Page needs to be considered one of the top 4 rock guitarists of all time.

[@christopherone1]

HE IS, ALWAYS! AND, NOT TOP 4 BUT OFTEN NUMBER 1 OR TOP 3.

[@tomknoll796]

@@christopherone1 I'm just considering Hendrix, Clapton and Stevie Ray Vaughn along with him.

In my personal LZ top 10. Lyrics about RP having to choose between his girlfriend and his music "ten years gone".

[@UlricGrim]

Where is this music at today? What happened? Jimmy plays some of the most beautiful chords on this song.

[@victorjohnson7512]

Songs about remembering his old girlfriend ten years later after becoming a rockstar.

[@christopherone1]

I mean, what's the point...not sure why you're not listening, watching LIVE versions, they're so much better!

[@Ledzepnut]

Listening to the studio version is always best to do just as we did when it first came out. The only way we got to experience them live is by either going to one of their concerts, the double live album, or crappy bootlegs. I'm sure they'll get to their live music before it's all said and done :)

[@shannonjohnson2530]

Don't get much better.
