Led Zeppelin are infamous for the amount of lyrics, melodies and riffs that they "borrowed" from the blues and rock artists who came before them. Of course, it is fine to be inspired and influenced by great artists and songs but, if you're going to take somebody else's work and use it as the foundation of your new song, at least consider paying them some royalties or credit!

This video is made in collaboration with the great channel Lie Likes Music. Check out their brand new video on Zeppelin here: https://youtu.be/9y74zxGg8p0 😁
