I don't understand your reasoning for some of those songs. Actually Led Zep were one of the most consistent bands of all time. The 2 songs I consider to be their "worst" aren't even mentioned and they are Sick Again and Hots On For Nowhere (especially the solo).

One of my favorites actually. I do have this thing against rock and roll songs about rock and roll.

I don't think I've heard all of them, but D'yer Maker has always annoyed me.

I didn't pick all of these songs b/c I had something against them. I like some of the songs that I put, but I figured it wouldn't be a fair poll if I only chose songs that I didn't like.

I really just can't deal with Hot Dog.

But this poll just goes to show exactly how strong Zeppelin's complete body of work really is.

I actually like In Through The Out Door. It's title makes more sense than Up The Downstair. LOL

The funny thing is that despite being waaaaaaay waaaaaay waaaaay overplayed on the radio, it's actually a decent song. By the way, for comic relief, Zappa covers it on Best Band You Never Heard In Your Life.

Released date are often when it it impacted you but recorded dates are when it really happened...

Well, at least he didn't put Kashmir on it. I would have had to seriously hurt him. Ouch

OK, I'll join the pile on for D'yer Maker. LOL

D'yer Maker is the only Led Zep song in their whole discography that I can't stand.

Out of the list? Ozone Baby?

I don't know. I can't say I dislike any of their songs.

D'yer Maker is one of my favorite from them.
