(`Stairway to Heaven' is) a nice pleasant, well-meaning naive little song, very English. It's not the definitive Led Zeppelin song. `Kashmir' is.

More quotes by Robert Plant
When I was a kid, the world was such a big place, and I had no idea that I would be afforded these great moments in between doing what I love to do.
Robert Plant
I like to comprehend more or less everything around me - apart from the creation of my music. It's an obsessive character trait that's getting worse. I don't switch the light on and off 15 times before I leave the room yet, but something's going wrong.
Robert Plant
Led Zeppelin has been there through three generations of teenage angst. And there's a generation of kids now who won't know it, post-Linkin Park.
Robert Plant
Who wants to see 3 aging old racists on stage, anyway?
Robert Plant
You can't even imagine how it felt to have a cassette that you could take with you with a microphone so you could put down an idea and not have to hum it a million times to remember what it was.
Robert Plant
I've been scared and I've liked not hanging on to stuff where I know that I'm in my comfort zone.
Robert Plant
The trouble is now, with rock'n'roll and stuff, it gets so big that it loses what once upon a time was a magnificent thing, where it was special and quite elusive and occasionally a little sinister and it had its own world nobody could get in.
Robert Plant
I may as well do everything as if it’s brand new, and if I start to feel that any of it’s a compromise, then I’ll...I’ll be in Wisconsin.
Robert Plant
I'm British - ostensibly British - but I don't know where I really belong, you know?
Robert Plant
It's sort of a feeling of power onstage. It's really the ability to make people smile, or just to turn them one way or another for that duration of time, and for it to have some effect later on. I don't really think it's power... it's the goodness.
Robert Plant
My sort of stability as a character, it's never been one of my strongest attributes. I'm a bit of a clusterf*ck. I get so many great ideas that I kind of mesmerize people with another plan before the previous plan is hatched out.
Robert Plant
The essence of Bonham is what he didn't play rather than what he did play - what he left out.
Robert Plant
My vocal style I haven't tried to copy from anyone. It just developed until it became the girlish whine it is today.
Robert Plant
I was young - I was 20 years old. Now I have the gift of perspective and I feel pretty good about it.
Robert Plant
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
I wanted my voice to be a tenor sax, really.
Robert Plant
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
I'm not interested in being known as the singer from Led Zeppelin.
Robert Plant
I come from a very small island which is packed with people. I mean, jam-packed with people. I've lived a life which has been pretty much full up with ambition, ideas, stimulus, creativity, some negativity, which I try to avoid. Austin is a great sort of stepping-off point, if you like. I'm from a temperate climate.
Robert Plant
I do spend a lot more time away from the U.K., it's important to me that I still feel the beat of the people that have been close to me for a long, long time. It's also important that I have really strong and beautiful relationships which I wish to preserve. That enables me - or challenges me, ultimately - to get a Texas driving license!
