You have to ask these questions: who pays the piper, and what is valuable in this life?

Every place is determined by the characters who are there.
Robert Plant
Image
It's crucial that I kind of keep up, without drifting into the backslapping land of cliche and lifetime achievement awards.
Robert Plant
Image
Now I'm a blithering oaf hanging on to the coatsleeves of commerciality.
Robert Plant
Image
I hate cliché. And when you're a rock singer in 1966, or whatever it was, psychedelic blues, through to the '70s, which we know all about, and the '80s, which was a scramble to hang on in, and the '90s, which was a great time for experimentation... and I'm really still excited. The huge vast diagonals within the music that I've been involved with.

I'm not trying to be cosmic, it's just that everything's on a roll and that's how it is. The songs within the album discuss that very condition.
Robert Plant
Image
I kind of disguise my limitations by hanging out with very talented people. The excitement of the collision between the microphone-twirling guy from 1966 to now is just a fantastic adventure. There aren't many of us left and I've managed to kind of cover my tracks pretty good.

I met some people who help in an archeological project in the South Pacific, between sailing to the Marquesas, which is an island group not too far from Tahiti, and I think, Wouldn't that be great? I have such a fascination with history and especially history in my own country.
Robert Plant

How much do people really want to learn? I mean, some people get into a groove and they stay with it indefinitely. And what starts off as a great moment of explosive passion can end up as cabaret 25, 30 years later. It just depends on whether you go and find the right habitat to extend yourself.
Robert Plant
Image
Everybody's got something to tell you. And most people have told me to do the obvious thing as far as my career goes. Which would have sent me tottering into the abyss.
Robert Plant
Image
I am a reflection of what I sing. Sometimes I have to get serious because the things Ive been through are serious.
Robert Plant
Image
I'm a grandfather now.
Robert Plant
Image
I'd like to write a big rock anthem again. I just need to listen to Korn, and then I might get the idea of how to do it.
Robert Plant
Image
The idea of actually taking sharp turns left and right has always intrigued me, but I've never really been bold enough to do that. As musicians go, I've allowed myself to be carried by other people's enthusiasm into places where I've learned a lot. There is no real tumult anymore. What I want to do, I do! I'm pretty fortunate.

Ten minutes in the music scene is the equal of one hundred years outside of it.

Some audiences can shake and bang their heads on the stage to riffs all night long, but subtlety is an art that must be mastered if you're going to be remembered.
