Top Ten Underrated Led Zeppelin Songs

Happy Zeptember! As the name implies, it as a month to celebrate the music of Led Zeppelin and just how great they are. I realize I talk about them a lot, but after this, no Zeppelin posts or references on this blog until January from me.

I wanted to celebrate this somehow, but I didn't want to do the cliche "Top Ten Led Zeppelin Songs." Instead, I decided to do something a wee bit less subjective. Instead, I've decided to do the "Top Ten Underrated Led Zeppelin Songs." These are songs that I feel, despite Zep's immense popularity in the music world, just don't get enough radio play and appreciation. I don't know what to say now, so let's go!

Honorable Mentions:

"The Rain Song" 

"Dancing Days"

10. "Thank You" 

I've talked about this song in the past, And it's one the mixtape. The guitar and drums are a bit weak, but the keyboards and vocals are this song's true catch. The lyrics are down-right beautiful. It is a shame I've never heard it on the radio. 

9. "Out On The Tiles" 

I really like the guitar part on this song. And, similar to "Thank You," I've never heard it on the radio. It's sad. The entire album of Led Zeppelin III is very underrated. 

8. "We're Gonna Groove" 

I almost put this song at the top spot. And as I type this, I'm wondering why I didn't put it higher. Musically, it's not the best, but I've met "hardcore Zeppelin fans" who have never heard of this song and had no clue it existed. That is plain ol' sad. 

7. "Bron Y Aur Stomp"

This is actually SmoothJazz's favorite Zeppelin tune, and I don't blame him. This is another one that many people have never heard of, which is disappointing. It has some of the best acoustic guitar work in a song ever. 

6. "Four Sticks" 

This is a tasty jam with some mighty fine drum work. The only thing that could've made it better was if Tyrone Davis had been a co-vocalist on this track. 

5.  "Your Time Is Gonna Come" 

Not only is this a wonderful song, but it reminds me of a woman. IT'S THE DOUBLE HIT WOMBO COMBO!

4.  "The Rover"

I honestly think these next four are far superior to "Stairway to Heaven" and "Kashmir." If you have no clue what I'm talking about, people consider those two Zeppelin's best. Anyway, "The Rover" is a great song, and it is a shame it was never played live. Shows how underrated it is. 

3. "Down By The Seaside" 

A slower, but beautiful, Zeppelin song. I've actually heard this one on the radio, but it is an amazing song and deserves much more attention than it gets. All the instruments are so harmonious on this track. 

2. "Bring It On Home"

I don't know if I'll ever be able to make a "Top Ten Led Zeppelin Songs" post (too many good ones), but this has always been one of my favorites. It's hard rock at its finest and even has a little bluesy twang. I really enjoy it. 

1. "Ten Years Gone" 

I consider putting a lot of songs at number one. "Achilles Last Stand," "The Rover," "Gallows Pole," "Since I've Been Loving You." But in the long run, "Ten Years Gone" takes the cake. Just listen to it. It's beautiful. Shoutout to SmoothJazz for introducing me to this amazing song. 

Freshly yours,
