Led zeppelin- "Immigrant Song" (Page, Plant) - 1970 Ah,ah Ah,ah We come from the land of the ice and snow,from the midnight sun where the hot springs blow. The hammer of the gods Will drive our ships to new lands, To fight the horde, singing and crying .. Valhalla, I am coming! On we sweep with threshing oar, Our only goal will be the western shore. Ah,ah Ah,ah We come from the land of the ice and snow, from the midnight sun where the hot springs blow. How soft your fields so green, Can whisper tales of gore, Of how we calmed the tides of war. We are your overlords. On we sweep with threshing oar, Our only goal will be the western shore. So now youd better stop and rebuild all your ruins, For peace and trust can win the day Despite of all your losing.

As Immigrants, we always have choices... and this makes Going to California so beautiful...
"Going to California" is the penultimate song performed by the English rock band Led Zeppelin on their fourth album, released in 1971.
Spend my days with a woman unkind Smoked my stuff and drank all my wine Made up my mind, make a new start Goin' to California with an achin' in my heart Someone told me there's a girl out there With love in her eyes and flowers in her hair
Took my chances on a big jet-plane Never let 'em tell ya that they're aw-ooh-all the same Hoh, the sea was red and the sky was grey I wonder how tomorrow could ever follow today-hee Mountains and the canyons start to tremble and shake The children of the sun begin to awake Now Watch out
It seems that the wrath of the gods got a punch on the nose And it's startin' to flow, I think I might be sinkin' Throw me a line, if I reach it in time Meet you up there where the path runs straight and high
Find a queen without a king They say she plays guitar and cries and sings, la-la-la-la Ride a white mare in the footsteps of dawn Tryin' to find a woman who's never, never, never been born Standin' on a hill in the mountain of dreams Tellin' myself it's not as hard, hard, hard as it seems

Oh let the sun beat down upon my face With 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 a gentle race This world has seldom seen. They talk of days for which they sit and wait When all will be revealed.
Talk an' 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. Whoa-ohh-oh Whoa-ohhh-oh-oh
Ooooh Oh baby, I've been flyin' Nooo-yeah Oh mama there Ain't no denyin'
Oh! Ooooh-yes I've been flyin' Ma-ma-ma Ain't no denyin' No denyin'-uh
Oh! All I see turns to brown As the sun burns the ground. And my eyes fill with sand As I scan this wasted land. Tryin' to find Tryin' to find Where I've been.
Oh pilot of the storm who leaves no trace Like thoughts inside a dream Who hid the path that led me to that place Of yellow desert screen.
"Kashmir" is a song by the English rock band Led Zeppelin from their sixth album Physical Graffiti, released in 1975. It was written by Jimmy Page and Robert Plant (with contributions from John Bonham) over a period of three years, with the lyrics dating back to 1973.
I wish I had my camera today--on most weekend days you can see Rich, a Vietnam war veteran stationed on West 14th at the Steelyard round-about, with his End War sign.
