Houses of the Holy
A tasteful, melodic performance, so low-key that it's almost the sort of thing you might expect to hear performed by Three Jacks and a Jill at the Ramada Inn. Certainly Plant was in a wistful, romantic mood when he penned the lyrics to this soliloquy on the changing moods of love. "This is the springtime of my loving", he intones breathlessly as Page renders a sensetive acoustic accompaniment using a Dan Electro guitar. The use of a Melletron by JPJ adds an orchestral flavor to the attractive backing. The Melletron was an early attempt at creating a kind of semi-mechanical synthesizer, using tape loops triggered by a keyboard. It was employed to great efect by bands like Genesis and the Moody Blues, but its use by Led Zeppelin was a relatively rare occurence.
The piece ends with Plant's observatin that "Upon us all a little rain must fall", the sort of motto usually found hand-stitched and placed upon a bedroom wall. It's said that the motivation force creating this ballad came from a chance conversation with George Harrison, a surprisingly big fan of Led Zeppelin. he was amazed when he discovered that Zeppelin played three-hour sets on stage. The most the Beatles ever played live was about 30 minutes! He told John Bonham: "The problem with you band is that you don't do any ballads." This is the ensemble that had just created "Stairway to Heaven". Neverthelesss, the tune was retained for many of the show's between 1973 and 1975, and was performed as a solo piece towards the end of Zeppelin's career. :smile:

Chris Welch Review
A jerky, choppy, rhythm breaks up this curious item, with its vaguely inconclusive coda. It only comes to life when Bonhams drums push Plant into singing "Hey lady--got the love I need". There is plenty of pleasant folk-style guitar work and the main theme is hypnotic, but it doesn't seem to want to go anywhere. According to Plant, the backing tracks
were devised first then he came up with some appropriate lyrics. He found it difficult to sing to some of the increasingly complex melody lines, but however it gave him a chance to indulge in his passion for Celtic mythology.
Released as a single in the US in May 1973, "Over the Hills and Far Away" failed to get into the top 50. The song was played live before their album was released during their 1972 US tour and was performed at their 1979 Knebworth concert. It was also featured on Jimmy Pages 1988 Outrider tour. :smile:

Chris Welch Review
One of the highlights of the album, "Dancing Days" has a theme that successfully marries both Eastern and rock'n'roll influences. The tune was inspired by an Indian melody the band heard played on a string instrument during a trip to Bombay. Plant ws also influenced by the Indian music he often heard in the area of Birmingham where his girlfriend lived. The track also features one of Plant's most mystical and yet restrained vocals, held on to a single note for several of its hypnotic choruses. The curse of the squeaking bass drum pedal, noted on "The Rain Song" and "Over The Hills and Far Away", returned and managed to escape undetected on a tune that was played live some time before the album was recorded. But this a minor problem on what is now seen by many zeppelin fans as one of their most strangely affecting performances.
Recorded at Stargroves and mixed at Electric Lady in New York, Eddie Kramer recalls seeing Page and Plant
dancing in single file across the huge lawn outside the house, during the playback, to celebrate the conpletion of the song. (I have several photos of this, they do indeed look happy) Incidently, Kramer had to put up with a series of practical jokes during the recording fo this--including having various roadies busting through his bedroom window all night while he was entertaining a new girlfriend. She left hurriedly in the morning.
The song was the first track from Houses of the Holy to be selected for radio promotion. This excellant, angular performance benefits by being heard on CD rather than viny. Roberts relaxed and untypical vocals flow through much more clearly. :smile:

Chris Welch Review
After several disappointing tracks, this was a return to music of quality. "No Quarter" was pinned together by John Paul Jones, who takes the reins and instills cohesion into the work. His eerie synth and piano work sets up a mood that gives Plant a chance to put his vocal talents to good use. "Close the door, put out the light", he sings mysteriously, his voice processed through some sort of electric cheese grater. "The dogs of doom are howling more", he warns us later, and reveals that when the winds of Thor are blowing
cold, it's time to put on warm underware, or at the very least "wear steel that's bright and true."
This interesting arrangement is full of pregnant pauses, with its atmospheric keyboard playing, Jones salvages the remains of the album. A jazz-rock groove develops but the suspicion remains that this isn't a Led Zeppelin album proper. it lacks the the smack of firm direction, as four people try out their own ideas. Loose, not tight, "No Quarter' had its origins in a piece tried out at Headley Grange, then slowed down in its final recorded version. It became Jones' major showcase number at live shows from 1973 onwards, including the brillant Earls Court appearances in 1975, right up until Zeppelins Knebworth dates in 1979. Robert Plant also featured the arangement during his own Manic Nirvana tour in 1990. "No quarter" was a pirate's phrase, much used by Robert Newton in his role as Long John Silver and beloved by the late Keith Moon. :smile:

My review:
The is my absolute favourite song by Led Zeppelin! The riff at the beginning is so beautiful and the hard rock part that comes later is awesome, too! It rocks but has a touch of melancholy to it as well! The part where it goes "Oh darlin' darlin' darlin' walk awhile with me, oh, you've got so much, so much, so much" is beautiful as well! I also love the part where it goes "many dreams come true and some have silver linings, I live for my dreams and a pocketful of gold"! I think this song can affect moods in different ways at different times! It can be a good song for a quiet evening drive in the country, it can make you feel relaxed, it can cheer you up when you're sad, it can make you cry a little when feeling a bit sentimental, or it can good pick-me-up music for cleaning house, excercising, or doing fun activities to! All in all an awesome song that affects different people's moods in different ways at different times, if you catch my drift! It's a pretty cleansing, refreshing feeling for some to cry a bit with the song, and a nice cheer-me-up song for others! It's also a good motivator for some to listen to while doing boring tasks or for doing fun stuff to, while others may find it a better song for relaxing to!

Re: Discuss what you like or don't like about this song?
I love this song, it's beautifully constructed, with the opening riff of an acoustic guitar, followed by the vocals, then the drums. Then the guitar solo, which comes in the right time. Before the short ending riff, the song will fade for a few seconds.

I give it a rating of 10! It's one of LZ's best songs to listen to, along with Rock And Roll, Whole Lotta Love……

Re: Does Over the Hills and Far Away make you cry?
Anyway, back to the subject at hand, I just heard Over the Hills and Far Away on the radio earlier today; and, yup, I was reaching for the kleenix. :sad: That is such a touching song. :loveya: My best friend thinks it's strange that I'm moved to tears by that song (she says "it rocks"), but I don't care. :lookaround: I'm not into Led Zep like she is, but this song can really move me. :twitch: She also claims that Bridge Over Troubled Water never makes her cry, either, but I could swear, I've seen her wiping at her eyes the other day we were together and Bridge Over Troubled Water started playing on the radio. :uhoh: Well, that's okay, I'm determined to catch her in the act one of these days! :lol:

Re: Does Over the Hills and Far Away make you cry?
yeah, i'm not sure what it is, exactly, but 'over the hills and far away' has me reaching for a tissue just about everytime. :sad: once this song even made me cry on the bus; it was bloody embarrassing, but i didn't care too much. :embarrassed: one of the most beautiful led zeppelin songs ever. so sweet that i just can't help but cry. :biggrin:

this is the only zeppelin song that makes me cry, i'm not sure why, but this song really moves me. :twitch: from the opening notes to the long ending note at this end of this song, it really tugs at me. even when this song picks up, i'm still tearing up. :sad: it's hauntingly beautiful all the way through, not unlike bridge over troubled water by simon and garfunkel. that isn't really my favourite simon and garfunkel song - for the same reasons as i've stated regarding this song - but it is most decidely one of their most beautiful songs. :biggrin:

i think i would rate this one a 9.5, the only thing preventing this song from quite being a 10 is that it's a little too beautiful - it may sound really corny, but the beauty of this is so over-powering, and overwhelming, that i can never listen to it and not tear up - which is not a bad thing, mind you, but i don't always like to cry, especially not when i'm around other people. so, bottom line is, there's nothing about this song i don't like, this song just shows the sensitive side of zeppelin. :biggrin:

LOL, a little too beautiful? I guess! I mean, I can never listen to this song and not tear up, it just moves me: from the introduction notes to "hey lady, you've got the love I need" to "oh, darling darling darling, walk awhile with me" to "you've got so much, so much, so much" to "many dreams come true and some have silver linings" to the interlude in the middle to "many many men can't see the open road" to "you really outta know, you really outta know, you know you should you know you should you know you should know" to the concluding last note. You get the idea, the whole song makes me cry, it's so beautiful! :loveya: You gotta love this song, it's kind of embarrassing when I'm with others, though! :embarrassed: Anyway, I rate this song a 10+! :biggrin:
BTW, Kathy, you can't dock points from this song because of it's inhyper and haunting beauty, in fact, you have to give it extra credit for being able to affect you that way! :lol: But, whatever! :rasta:

Re: Your favourite lines in this song:
oh my, both very beautiful lines. of course, everything about that song is beautiful, but my most favourite line of all would have to be 'many dreams come true and some have silver linings'. there's just something about that line that especially touches me even more so then any other line in the song. :biggrin: and the least touching line in this song, not quite sure what it would be, is more touching than any line in any other zeppelin song. :biggrin:

i mean, it's not really a sad song or anything, it's quite up-beat, actually. it just it's so hauntingly beautiful and it touches me so much that i can never listen to this song and not tear up. :sad: sometimes i wish i could, because i don't always like to cry, especially when i'm with other people. :embarrassed: but at other times, i like nothing better to do than to play this song and allow myself to cry softly to it. it can be a very refreshing feeling. :angel: also, it can make me feel better when i am sad about something, and i have a hard time crying - i just put this song on then the tears can flow easily. :biggrin:

Re: Your favourite lines in this song:
Actually, I was on the bus just the other day, and Over the Hills and Far Away came on the bus radio. :angel: And, yup, you've guessed it, I started to tear up. :sad: I could swear, the person in the seat next to me was looking at me kinda strangely, but I didn't care. :hippy: I just let the tears come and I just cried silently to myself. :zzz: I didn't even feel all that sad, because it isn't really a sad song; it was just so moving, I had to cry. :loveya: Ironically, more often than not, I have an easier time crying to moving songs (mainly because I can't help it :smile: ) than I do crying when I'm sad about something that happened in my life or something bad that happened to me. :love:

Re: Discuss what you like or don't like about this song?
cecelia is correct. if i was to rate this song based on talent and artistry, i would give this song at least 11 points out of 10 for being able to have the effect on me that this song does - no other zeppelin song has ever made me cry even once, let alone every single time, as this one has. :angel: so this really says alot as for how this song really stands out to me from zeppelin's catalogue. but on a scale of personal preference, i still give this song 9.5 points out of 10, because i don't always like to cry. :embarrassed: so i should thought i should clear this up for you guys. :biggrin:

Re: Does Over the Hills and Far Away make you cry?
The other day, I was being chaeuffered to a party and I was wearing some mascara. Anyway, I'm riding along to this party and I'm really excited. Then "Over the Hills and Far Away" came on the radio and I started to cry. Of course, I was crying quietly, but I was still embarrassed. It was such a beautiful song and I couldn't ask the chauffer to change the station because I didn't have the heart to. Anyway, as we finally arrive at the party, the song had just finished playing - and by then, my face was streaked with mascara mixed with tears. The chauffer had gently asked me if I was okay - and I assured him that I was, that it was just that the song that was playing was so beautiful that I couldn't help but cry. Anyway, it wasn't too bad, but it was still embarrassing. Yeah, really. I was just so overcome with emotion that I really couldn't help but cry. :sad: I don't know exactly why that song gets to me, but this has got to be the most hauntingly beautiful song that Led Zeppelin came out with. No other Zeppelin song can make me cry like Over the Hills and Far Away - not even All My Love.

Hehe, I think it's really funny that you should call D'yer Mak'er " The Oh Oh Oh Song", LZLurk - because when I was younger, I used to call it "The Oh Oh Song". I would sing it alot and make up my own words as I went along, because I didn't really know how the rest of the song went - I only know the "oh, oh's" and the "ah, ah's" part of the song. It wasn't anything real spectacular, I would just make up lyrics about kiddie type of stuff. I used to always go to a neighbour's house - she had some Led Zeppelin tapes, and I had always wanted her to play "The Oh Oh Song". I think I was about 6 or 7 at the time. So to this day, this has been my favourite Zep song. Anyway, that's my story.

Mainly this song just makes me cry if I had not heard it on a long time. I'm not sure why it makes me cry, exactly - but it's intence, haunting beauty tends to really hit me in which I'm really tearing up and reaching for the tissue. If I need to have a good cry and I have not heard this song in awhile, then this is for sure the one to do it. :sad: But this song can make me cry even when I'm happy. :angel:

That is the same with me, Retro. If I have not not heard this song in like, say, a week or so - and then I hear that song, it can really hit me hard. I think the time that this song had hit me so hard when I was being cheufferred to the party - I have not, like, heard that song in about a month before that. But it is such a hauntingly beautiful song. I don't know exactly why this song makes me cry - but it is a very moving song. :babyblue:

Someone had once told me that you can tell a little something about someone's personality by #1) the ability to cry to songs, and #2) what types types of songs make them cry, and #3) why those songs make them cry. :loveya: I had asked her to check into Over the Hills and Far Away by Led Zeppelin, and this is what she had told me: she told me that people who cry to Over the Hills and Far Away tend to cry to that song not because they it to be a sad song, but because of several facters (the melody, the beat, the rhythm, and (for some) the lyrics. The combination of all those things together are designed in a manner to induce excitement and strong feelings, so this song can make some people cry, both when they're happy and when they're sad. She said that people who cry to that song tend to be very whimsical, have a very soft spot for beauty, and they tend to be very romantic people. :angel:

Re: Over the Hills and Far Away
You know what, Tangerine? I don't believe some people cry to Over the Hills and Far Away because it sad - but, rather, because it's so beautiful. It's kinda like tears of joy, more or less. At least, that's how it is for me. This is one of those songs that just really grabs you. It's almost kinda hypnotic sounding. A lot of times, I find myself in a trance, as I hear this song. I don't always cry everytime I hear this song. However, if I haven't heard this song in awhile - then it kinda does tug on my heartstrings. Do you get what I mean?

This song is definitely a burst of sunshine. I always have to turn this song up whenever I hear it on the radio. This is a song that really does touch my inner world. So, yeah, sometimes it is beautiful enough to be tear-inducing.

Re: Over the Hills and Far Away
Over the Hills and Far Away is one of Adrienne's favorite songs. She even knows all the words to this song. I think this is one of the songs that are open to interpretation. Some think this is a song about drugs. Others think this is a song based on Lord of the Rings. Others, yet, think that this is just a really beautiful love song. I'd rather see it as the latter of the three.

Yeah, Adrienne knows all the words to D'yer Mak'er. This really is not a hard song for kids to learn. I really don't understand why your music teacher objected to this song… but, perhaps, it's because this is a song about boyfriend/girlfriend relationships, and breaking up. Kids really wouldn't understand what that's about, though.

That probably is why Aimee's music teacher did object to D'yer Mak'er. Some parents don't let their kids listen to the radio… because they don't think the music is appropriate for kids. I have decided not to take that route with my kids, though. Regarding the whole "adults' music vs kids' music" issue, some parents to tend to take one of two extremes with that… and I don't think either extreme is right. It's better just to have a happy medium between the two.

Yeah, my girls really like Over the Hills and Far Away, too. Some people believe that this song is a song about drugs… because, in the live versions of this song, where it says "I live for my dreams and a pocketful of gold", Robert goes "alcupulco gold". You see, "alcupulco gold" is slang for marijuana. Anyway, I do definitely agree with you, that this song is open to interpretation.

Oh, yeah, as a matter of fact, I have. :wink: Her mother has wanted me to babysit her, and I told her I'd be more than happy to do so. She is a real adorable little girl. :peck:

Re: Houses of the Holy
So, does that little girl still like Led Zeppelin? One day, we had some guests over… and Alisha sang all of D'yer Mak'er. One of our guests was amazed that she knew all the words to that song. I told her that both of my girls are big Zeppelin fans. She said I was raising my girls up right.

Re: Houses of the Holy
So, how long have you little girls been into Led Zeppelin. I've been into Zeppelin since I was two. My mother did have Houses of the Holy, and she did play that album a lot. My favourite has always been The Ocean. Although, I like Over the Hills and Far Away, too - and, no, that song doesn't make me cry. I think that's a happy song. It's also a nice song for the road.

Re: Houses of the Holy
Last night, we were listening to D'yer Maker - and we were all singing to that song. Even April was singing along. I think that's Rhonda's favourite song.
