Look, I love Zeppelin but Dancing Days is just a no go. Also there are a lot of songs on that list that should not be up there.

I'd vote for "I'm Gonna Crawl", but it's not on the list.
And y'all keep leaving the second apostrophe out of "D'yer Mak'er".

Dyer Maker in poll position and I agree its a bad song but I've always hated the sleep inducing indulgence of Dazed and Confused

I like it as well - Bonzo is great on this one. Now I'm wondering why The Crunge isn't on that list.

I love that song! I couldn't call any songs by Zepp bad. There are a few on the list that aren't great either. Page's pick is Livin' Lovin' Maid, and I agree with him. Still a nice rock'n'roll song, though.

^Thanks Atav. I was relying on my memory of a DJ explanation from 1973. I like yours better - and it makes more sense.

except,
oddly enough, if I read the original joke correctly it's much more
innocuous; "Did you make her" refers to making the wife to go on
vacation, not sex - -
'The wife and I went on an island holiday.' 'Ja maka?' 'No she went on her own accord.'

-Anything except In The Evening from In Through the Out Door -Anything from Coda -Any of "their" songs that they ripped off other artists, which pains me to include Stairway to Heaven.

You have some of their best songs on that list
Voted 'Candy Store Rock'. I must be one of the few people who loves 'D'yer Mak'er".
