Kashmir - Led Zeppelin

Kashmir by Led Zeppelin

Lyrics:

Oh let the sun beat down upon my face, stars to fill my dream
I am a traveler of both time and space, to be where I have been
To sit with elders of the gentle race, this world has seldom seen
They talk of days for which they sit and wait and all will be revealed

Talk and song from tongues of lilting grace, whose sounds caress my ear
But not a word I heard could I relate, the story was quite clear
Oh, oh.

Oh, I been flying... mama, there aint no denyin
Ive been flying, aint no denyin, no denyin

All I see turns to brown, as the sun burns the ground
And my eyes fill with sand, as I scan this wasted land
Trying to find, trying to find where Ive been.

Oh, pilot of the storm who leaves no trace, like thoughts inside a dream
Heed the path that led me to that place, yellow desert stream
My shangri-la beneath the summer moon, I will return again
Sure as the dust that floats high and true, when movin through kashmir.

Oh, father of the four winds, fill my sails, across the sea of years
With no provision but an open face, along the straits of fear
Ohh.

When Im on, when Im on my way, yeah
When I see, when I see the way, you stay-yeah

Ooh, yeah-yeah, ooh, yeah-yeah, when Im down...
Ooh, yeah-yeah, ooh, yeah-yeah, well Im down, so down
Ooh, my baby, ooooh, my baby, let me take you there

Let me take you there. let me take you there

This song is so incredible. I really hope that inspired music like this will emerge and flourish again, and all the uninspired crap that people call "music" these days will fade away and be forgotten. Thumbs up if you agree. I think it could happen if we all start uniting and getting inspired by seeking the truth of life. Search "Truth Contest" in Google and click the 1st result, then open The Present. What it says will blow your mind.

This was the sound heard of the birth of Jesus

[mickystone21]

Listen to the drum beat.simple.straight.it gives the song legs-like the lineman who protect the quaterback-Steven Tyler ( from does the noise in my head bother you)

[wooohoo2]

@23rock3 just clicked on that truth contest crap you call truth and i feel sorry for you and any one who belives such crap... you don't deserve or understand music like this. go listen to some justin beever or something.

@tamzt3r Well God didn't exist in the first place... Because 'first' implies chronological order or time, and God existed 'before' time. This may seem like an abstract concept but its the same as someone who chooses to believe in the Big Bang. Theoretical physicists claim that the Big Bang originated from a singularity which existed before the dimension of time, perhaps in one of the others. Its M theory, we common folk wouldn't understand. Understand?

@Shin0BixD Thanks. I was a child of the 90s, so most of my exposure to 80s music is through friends. Gotta say though, that if someone is going to compare modern music to the best of the 70s, it's very enlightening to look at the Billboard 100 for that year - kashmir doesn't make the list, surprisingly. And I can't say that "Love Will Keep Us Together" ('75) is any more inspired than "Set Fire To The Rain" ('11.) Not sure it's fair to judge a decade by it's pop.
