Step 1 : Introduction to the question "5. "There's a lady who's sure, all that glitters is gold, and she's buying a stairway to heaven". So begins one of the most famous songs in rock history. Who sings "Stairway to Heaven"?"
...1. The Rolling Stones 2. The Beatles 3. The Who 4. Led Zeppelin Having released three albums (two in 1969 and one in 1970), Led Zeppelin began writing material for their fourth studio album, an untitled album released in 1971. Although referred to as "Zoso", "Four Runes", and "Led Zeppelin IV",Led Zeppelin's album is officially untitled. There are eight songs on the album, including "Stairway to Heaven", which, along with the 1975 "Physical Graffiti" song "Kashmir", is probably Zeppelin's most famous song. Although never released as a single, "Stairway to Heaven" proved to be an enormous success, as is the rest of the album as well. The following artists were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1995: 1. The Allman Brothers Band 2. Al Green 3. Janis Joplin 4. Led Zeppelin 5. Martha and the Vandellas 6. Neil Young 7. Frank Zappa Page and Plant wrote the song in 1970 when Page and Plant were together in "Bron-Yr-Aur", a scenic remote cottage in the country of Wales. The song is also famous for supposedly featuring backward masking. When playing the song backward, there are purportedly several Satanic messages embedded in the music that, according to some critics, present subliminal evil messages to the people listening to the music. Here are several quotations from the band regarding the song's history. Page said regarding the song's initial composition: "I had these pieces, these guitar pieces, that I wanted to put together. I had a whole idea of a piece of music that I really wanted to try and present to everybody and try and come to terms with. Bit difficult really, because it started on acoustic, and as you know it goes through to the electric parts. But we had various run-throughs [at Headley Grange] where I was playing the acoustic guitar and jumping up and picking up the electric guitar. Robert was sitting in the corner, or rather leaning against the wall, and as I was routining the rest of the band with this idea and this piece, he was just writing. And all of a sudden he got up and started singing, along with another run-through, and he must have had 80% of the words there ... I had these sections, and I knew what order they were going to go in, but it was just a matter of getting everybody to feel comfortable with each gear shift that was going to be coming." John Paul Jones, the band's bassist, remembers when the song was presented to him. "Page and Plant would come back from the Welsh mountains with the guitar intro and verse. I literally heard it in front of a roaring fire in a country manor house! I picked up a bass recorder and played a run-down riff which gave us an intro, then I moved into a piano for the next section, dubbing on the guitars" The song is also famous for Page's blistering solo. Sound engineer Andy Johns revealed the following information about recording that famous solo: "I remember Jimmy had a little bit of trouble with the solo on "Stairway to Heaven"... [H]e hadn't completely figured it out. Nowadays you sometimes spend a whole day doing one thing. Back then, we never did that. We never spent a very long time recording anything. I remember sitting in the control room with Jimmy, he's standing there next to me and he'd done quite a few passes and it wasn't going anywhere. I could see he was getting a bit paranoid and so I was getting paranoid. I turned around and said "You're making me paranoid!" And he said, "No, you're making me paranoid!" It was a silly circle of paranoia. Then bang! On the next take or two he ripped it out." In a 1977 interview, Page enlarged on the song's composition history. "I do have the original tape that was running at the time we ran down "Stairway To Heaven" completely with the band. I'd worked it all out already the night before with John Paul Jones, written down the changes and things. All this time we were all living in a house and keeping pretty regular hours together, so the next day we started running it down. There was only one place where there was a slight rerun. For some unknown reason Bonzo couldn't get the timing right on the twelve-string part before the solo. Other than that it flowed very quickly" Page also said "...crystallized the essence of the band. It had everything there and showed the band at its best... as a band, as a unit. Not talking about solos or anything, it had everything there. We were careful never to release it as a single. It was a milestone for us. Every musician wants to do something of lasting quality, something which will hold up for a long time and I guess we did it with "Stairway".[16] [Pete] Townshend probably thought that he got it with Tommy. I don't know whether I have the ability to come up with more. I have to do a lot of hard work before I can get anywhere near those stages of consistent, total brilliance. The wonderful thing about "Stairway" is the fact that just about everybody has got their own individual interpretation to it, and actually what it meant to them at their point of life. And that's what's so great about it. Over the passage of years people come to me with all manner of stories about what it meant to them at certain points of their lives. About how it's got them through some really tragic circumstances ... Because it's an extremely positive song, it's such a positive energy, and, you know, people have got married to [the song]." Plant has also made the following statements regarding the lyrics of "Stairway to Heaven: "My hand was writing out the words, 'There's a lady is sure [sic], all that glitters is gold, and she's buying a stairway to heaven'. I just sat there and looked at them and almost leapt out of my seat." Plant's own explanation of the lyrics was that it "was some cynical aside about a woman getting everything she wanted all the time without giving back any thought or consideration. The first line begins with that cynical sweep of the hand ... and it softened up after that. It (the song)was done very quickly. It took a little working out, but it was a fluid, unnaturally easy track. It was almost as if-uh oh-it just had to be gotten out at the time. There was something pushing it saying, 'You guys are okay, but if you want to do something timeless, here's a wedding song for you.'"
