Will, you get your butt over here right now, even it makes you a god! Perhaps I should request that shades make you a god whether you like it or not. So, quit counting your posts and answer up to these magnificent Led Zeppelin songs that you know you love sooooo much!

You know you can't resist. Be a true Led Zepplelin fan.

East and West could not agree,
So their generals gave call and gathered troops at the border.
With guns at ready, drawn and aimed,
Each side was praying to a god
To bless them with strength and courage.
And it was in His name artillery lit the sky on fire.
The people sang protest songs to try and stop the soldier's gun.

Protest songs in response to military aggression,
Protest songs to try and stop the soldier's gun.
But the battle raged on....

Sirens filled the air, and the ground shook with war.
Civilian casualties had been a cost that was predetermined.
When interviewed for report, victims pleaded in frustration.
Their claim: That this was a war without reason.
And bureaucrats engaged in debate to try to reach a resolution.
The people sang protest songs to try and stop the soldier's gun.

Protest songs in response to military aggression,
Protest songs to try and stop the soldier's gun.
Protest songs in response to military aggression,
Protest songs to try and stop the soldier's gun.
But the battle raged on....

Well, the broadcast, like their prayers, went unanswered and ignored.
God, like the rest of the world, just watched in silence.
There was purpose to be served, there was fortunes to be earned
Before a peace could be called to stop the fighting.

They sang protest songs in response to military aggression,
Protest songs to try and stop the soldier's gun.
Protest songs in response to military aggression,
Protest songs to try and stop the soldier's gun.
But the battle raged on....

Come on Will, are you a Lemon Song fan?

Where did you go? Don't you have a confession to make, or am I just wrong?

I would have to say, if only allowed one song, Chad and Jeramey's Everyone's Gone to the Moon:

Streets full of people, all alone
Roads full of houses, never home
Church full of singing, out of tune
Everyone's gone to the moon

Eyes full of sorrow, never wet
Hands full of money, all in debt
Sun coming out in the middle of June
Everyone's gone to the moon

Long time ago
Life had begun
Everyone went to the sun

Cars full of motors, painted green
Mouths full of chocolate-covered cream
Arms that can only lift a spoon
Everyone's gone to the moon

Everyone's gone to the moon
Everyone's gone to the moon
Nothing is going to startle us more when we pass through the veil to the other side than to realize how well we know our Father [in Heaven] and how familiar his face is to us

I was going to say "Dead Puppies", but I didn't want to derail anything here.

Don't worry, Droopy. Not everyone has gone to the moon -- just the Quakers.
