Ranking Led Zeppelin Songs - Request To Participate (1 Viewer)

[Sinn Fein]

Why is this so difficult for people to understand? All songs that got at least one vote will be included. Each song will get an extensive write up. Might be able to get to more than one song a day if I have time. 

If I had known that - I would have submitted a wildly different list - just to see the write-up!

 

[zamboni]

Can you list all songs (if any) that did not get a vote?

Username questionable.

 

[Zegras11]

how do you feel about bumping the song count up?

30? ...40? 

In honor of the three year anniversary of the thread on Tuesday, Krista and I have decided to start the Beatles thread on that day. 

Let's have no further Beatles discussion in this thread going forward so we can enjoy mocking SInn's picks.

I think it would be more fun for us to list our top 5 songs that missed the cut (once the deadline to submit passes).

Getz the 15th has requested there be no more Beatles draft talk in the Zepplin thread.

Therefore I cannot comment on the possibly negative or positive aspects of your proposal.  

 

[Anarchy99]

Can we table the talk about The Beatles? I can’t tell if people are discussing them or LZ at this point, especially with people quoting generic comments. There is like a 140 page thread on Page 2 on them.

I would guess that the vast majority of people's "Just Missed" list will be in the top-25.

I have a guilty pleasure song that may not have made any list that I had in my last 10 out.  Kind of a goof but I’ve always enjoyed it.

Hat's Off to....you.

Came surprisingly close to making mine.

Multiple people voted for this one.

For the people clamoring about songs that DIDN'T get votes . . . I do not believe there were 5 songs total off of their original 8 albums. I think there might be 4 songs that were totally ignored.

Hat's Off, Night Flight, Sick Again, Royal Orleans, and Walter's Walk should have Zero Votes IMO.

My suggestion is that you don’t reveal the “no vote” songs right away.  Builds some additional drama into seeing what actually got votes.  Maybe when you’re far enough into the countdown so that it’s obvious.

Sir you are wrong on that one.

 

[PIK95]

It was always an auto skip for me after many tries.  Lucky for you that you can find value in it.

I didn't vote for Night Flight but it's a pretty good song.

Especially considering that 2 of the 8 aren't as highly thought of I'm a little surprised by that.  I would have expected more.  Maybe something in the 10-12 range

ETA - just to be clear, I'm not saying those 2 are bad by any means but not at the same level as the other 6.

You forgot Hot Dog.

 

[Anarchy99]

I am closing things to any new lists or list changes. However, I got a couple of lists last night that have some minor issues (ie songs listed twice) that need tweaking.

 

[Zeppelin]

You forgot Hot Dog.

Thanks. Not for that one, but the other Zeppelin videos that queued up automatically afterwards like Heartbreaker. It's not a...terrible...song. Just doesn't fit in with the rest of their stuff imo.

 

[DocHolliday]

Awesome.  Nice job with building suspense and all but let’s go already!

Tough room. I wasn't trying to build suspense. I was mostly killing time until people got their lists in.

Boooooooooooring...

Will there be a reveal today?  Or come back tomorrow?  Tia.

One of the best threads around here in a while.  Beat it.

He's kidding. We're buds. He's just salty because I mocked his list.

Same thoughts. If asked to guess, I would have guessed at 10.

It would be too bad if that were the case for the bolded. Especially Sick Again -- of all the material they had for Physical, that was one of the songs from it that they put in their live set, and for good reason. 

Hat's Off and Hot Dog are the two obvious shutouts to me from the albums released in Bonzo's lifetime. I also think The Crunge is awful, but I know there are those who disagree with me on that. 

 

[Ron Popeil]

60 - Physical Grafitti - 5

89 - I - 5

61 - Houses of the Holy - 5

30 - IV - 3

27 - II - 2

29 - III - 2

21 - In Through the Out Door - 1

7 - Presence - 1

1 - CODA - 1

This is the way I understood it.   What's wrong with you people?

We don’t have that much time.

 ...this could also been more appropriately accomplished with a laughing reaction on the post itself

Alternatively list the 4 songs with no votes first. In order of anarchys preference

The lights have dimmed in the arena, I can see the silhouettes of the stage hands running around on stage, I hear the tuning of guitars and the beat of a drum...

Mah gawd that's John Bonham on the skins.

My guesses for original studio releases not on a list:

Ozone Baby
Hot Dog
Candy Store Rock
Walter's Walk

Hats off to Roy Harper

Bonzo's Montreux

Bonzo's Montreux is not on one of their original 8 albums. None of these guesses have been all that close.

Sorry, thought we were including Coda.

You forgot Hot Dog.

I can assure you that you are, in fact, wrong
