I love the instrumental in this. With headphones, otherwise the cats leave the room.
a bit heavy on the Mellotron, this one, but Page's glissandos and Plant's vocals make it all worthwhile.

Seeing as YouTube has banned most vids from being posted I'll have to set up a Chillstep/ Progressive orchestra from my own chorus. Santana was already there in my signatures, but now, its gone..

John Paul Jones did great arrangements for them. And can you ever be too heavy on the mellotron?
True, that Oh my lost youth. I'd have liked this one to be acoustic; Plant's cadenza would have knocked everyone off their chairs. Even further.
Odd bit: I was poking around on the Net and came across an interview: apparently this was written in part because George Harrison was talking to Robert Plant and asked why LedZep had never done any ballads. Challenge accepted. But isn't this a ballad too? Or at least balladesque?
(Thank You, from the same album, is even more so, but I didn't find a good version to post.)
