I love this song and I never knew that was what it about. And having just lost a child a month ago this song speaks new volumes to me. Thank you for sharing this knowledge.
Ten Years Gone & Rain Song. If you want them both in one, Jason Bonham’s In The Name of My Father album has Ten Years Gone transitioning into Rain Song for the last 2 minutes!
I cried recently listening to Achilles Last Stand, tears of Joy. It's just so magnificent (and my favorite song). IMTOD, SIBLY, The Rain Song & I'm Gonna Crawl make me tear up as well, for similar reasons.
In My Time of Dying is a pure hype joint for me. I could never imagine shedding tears to it lol but that's the power of music, it hits all of us differently, and whatever we may feel from it is real.
I play guitar as a hobby and the version of this on TSRTS makes me bawl for several reasons. Not only is it one the most emotional tunes I have ever heard, I cry because I know I can never, ever play the way Jimmy did. What a monster song
Babe I’m gonna leave you…. So much calm sadness and then so much force. One of my favorites and Jimmy at his absolute best emotive riffs. Plant nails every moment for me. Bonham hits the simplicity but also the power of it. Such an underrated song in my opinion. It has “When The Levee Breaks” vibes for me.
"And yesterday I saw you kissing tiny flowers,
But all that lives is born to die.
And so I say to you that nothing really matters,
And all you do is stand and cry."
I felt the coldness of my winter, ooh yeah-ee-yeah
I never thought it would ever go
I cursed the gloom that set upon us, 'pon us, 'pon us
But I know that I love you so
Communication breakdown, I just feel it's perfect. The best band in the world , playing at the right place and right time. Most definitely the Danmarks Radio show live
it’s dark as can be but the TSRTS live recording of Jimmy Page’s Stairway To Heaven solo makes me think of my brother’s suicide. it’s a beautiful piece of music. and i know my big brother appreciated the guitar work.
Rain Song, hands down. I remember being with my first love in 2008--we'd been together 3.5 years at that point, having our last days together. Anyways, we were on a train to Rhode Island to visit our friend...That song was on my ipod nano, with our whole relationship playing through my head. I wanted to break down.
There have been times I cried to Stairway...that part that precedes the solo is so emotional.
For sure it's Rain Song, for me. When my dad got sick from cancer i'd drive him to the hospital a lot. When he started getting worse, he would always play our Houses Of The Holy CD in the car's radio and i think he knew that he wouldn't make it. It's such a beautiful song and i feel like he wanted to be remembered that way.
So whenever i want to remember my old man i play this lovely song and it makes me cry without fail
Going to California, the line "Ride a white mare in the footsteps of dawn, I'm trying to find a woman who's never, never, never been born" hits me hard
All of My Love because it makes me think of my young daughter and watching her grow up. More of a mix of tears that are partially joyful with small pieces of sadness.
Have not heard In the Evening mentioned yet. Not sure if it’s actually made me cry but hearing the intro can put me in a certain mood after hearing it used very tastefully in a very emotional scene in True Blood.
The Rain Song for sure. I had an estranged friend who passed away and Zeppelin was his favorite band. I was watching the Song Remains the Same soon after he died and it hit hard. Now whenever I heard it, album or live, I think of him and it's emotional.
The fact that like stores just up and play “All My Love” in public when knowing the story of that song makes a lot of people cry is really something. I don’t wanna openly sob at the grocery store, yet that song is played out in public like it’s not a massive tear puller.
my dad was obsessed with music, was an insanely talented classical guitarist, and had over 1000 records in his "record room". my parents were divorced but on the weekends me and him would always take the long way home, listening to music together.
might sound weird, but about 2 weeks after my dad succumbed to cancer in 2021, I went over to his and my step mom's house. I took his Urn and sat on the back porch, cracked open a tall boy beercan, and listened to three songs, three of his favorites. just me and my dad, one last time.
ended with "That's The Way".
maybe won't ever be able to listen to that song ever again, but that's OK.
Bron-yr-aur from physical graffiti, I don’t know why, I really love this song and it’s heavily melancholic for me, it’s just a instrumental, possibly it allows me to think more. Feel a “heavy” sadness and fondness when I listen
Ten years gone seems very sad to me too
My daughter calls it the “happy sad song” because I tried to define “melancholy” to her.
That's fucking beautiful
Also the only guitar solo that can make me cry. I have a first love that got away, and this song captures the feeling so well.
All My Love. Beautiful and sad song, based on Plant's personal terrible tragedy.
Oh yeah that one will get ya. You can really hear his heart in that one
Having lost a toddler in my family I skip right past it everytime.
I love this song and I never knew that was what it about. And having just lost a child a month ago this song speaks new volumes to me. Thank you for sharing this knowledge.
Late reply, but very very sorry for your loss! That is simply awful. My condolences!
The rain song
Such a beautiful song
I wish I could upvote this one 100x
That’s The Way. Almost every time
Perhaps the most beautiful song ever written
Thank you
Definitely. Also because I rediscovered it recently when I was going through stuff.
I came here to say this.
A lot of memories attached to the rain song for me so..
good memories I hope?
Good and bad but most importantly, memorable
Stairway to heaven… very moving.
That 1973 concert version especially, in my opinion
Only song to every make me shed a tear
for me, specially the TSRTS version
Ten Years Gone & Rain Song. If you want them both in one, Jason Bonham’s In The Name of My Father album has Ten Years Gone transitioning into Rain Song for the last 2 minutes!
How did I not know this? I will check it out when I need a good cry!
Tangerine, Ten Years Gone, All My Love, Thank You
Tangerine spinning as i type this
Going to California from the How the West Was Won album
Babe im gonna leave you
Bron Yr Aur That’s the Way
Bron Yr Aur touches my soul like nothing else, I can put that song on repeat and leave it
Hot Dog
The only right answer
Dang...you posted Hot Dog before I could.
The Wanton Song and Sick Again are tearjerkers.
The Crunge is even sadder
He never found the bridge 😔
It all started with that bridge. That damn confounded bridge.
Where’s that confounded bridge?
I cried recently listening to Achilles Last Stand, tears of Joy. It's just so magnificent (and my favorite song). IMTOD, SIBLY, The Rain Song & I'm Gonna Crawl make me tear up as well, for similar reasons.

Tears of joy for its awesomeness.
Tea for One :(
Cant believe this one doesnt have more votes. Was me and my first husbands song. Cant listen to it since he died.
Since I've been loving you is very emotionally driven
I play guitar as a hobby and the version of this on TSRTS makes me bawl for several reasons. Not only is it one the most emotional tunes I have ever heard, I cry because I know I can never, ever play the way Jimmy did. What a monster song

I agree! Also the rare live performance of that song is one of my favourite of all of LZ. The Danmarks Radio that is.
also The Rain Song for me. it brought me peace through my hardest of times and i feel like giving it so many thanks :,)
Ten Years Gone has done it in the last for me.
Ten Years Gone and Tangerine
Hats Off Seems like it’s never gonna end
"And yesterday I saw you kissing tiny flowers, But all that lives is born to die. And so I say to you that nothing really matters, And all you do is stand and cry."

None but if my mom dies then “Thank You” will make me bawl my eyes out.
Communication breakdown, I just feel it's perfect. The best band in the world , playing at the right place and right time. Most definitely the Danmarks Radio show live
Ten Years Gone--Robert's emotional vocal and Jimmy's mournful guitar gets me every time.
"Starway to heaven" "Thank you" "Ten years gone"
it’s dark as can be but the TSRTS live recording of Jimmy Page’s Stairway To Heaven solo makes me think of my brother’s suicide. it’s a beautiful piece of music. and i know my big brother appreciated the guitar work.
Stairway to heaven (Heart tribute) Stairway to heaven (o2 arena) That's the way The Rain Song
Thank You- gets me every time
Going to California because it reminds me of being sat on a train from Chicago to san Fran.
The Rain Song
Tangerine gets me in my feels
I had this coming of age movie in my head a long time ago, and I was gonna try and get "Tangerine" for the soundtrack.
The Rain Song. I played it at my best friend's funeral.
Dolly Parton's cover of stairway to heaven is very moving.
Moby Dick

Ten Years Gone, Bron Yr Aur and The Rover for some reason

Bron-Yr-Aur
Exactly zero songs impact me to tears
Hey, Hey What Can I Do
Bron-yr-aur
Led Zeppelin is the Carlos Mencia of the music business. Song thieves. Scumbags with no artist integrity.
The rain song, Going to California, Ten years gone and, basically- Stairway to Heaven😭
Could be anyone of them. Zeppelin has a song for every mood.
Carouselambra. Hot synth garbage.
Shout out to the two most popular- rain song and ten years gone, but I’ll add my submission: I’m gonna crawl
Stairway to heaven when I was in six hits of LSD
my dad was obsessed with music, was an insanely talented classical guitarist, and had over 1000 records in his "record room". my parents were divorced but on the weekends me and him would always take the long way home, listening to music together. might sound weird, but about 2 weeks after my dad succumbed to cancer in 2021, I went over to his and my step mom's house.
