| Led Zeppelin – Tea for One Lyrics
| 14 years ago
|
Yeah, I think that's why I love it so much
The song recalls an earlier Led Zeppelin song in sound and style, "Since I've Been Loving You".[1] "Tea for One" came from the desire of the band to return to their roots in order to see what had changed since they were younger.
In an interview given in 1977, Page said that the song
was the only time I think we've ever gotten close to repeating the mood of another of our numbers, "Since I've Been Loving You". The chordal structure is similar, a minor blues. We just wanted to get a really laid-back blues feeling without blowing out on it at all. We did two takes in the end, one with a guitar solo and one without. I ended up sitting there thinking, "I've got this guitar solo to do," because there have been blues guitar solos since Eric (Clapton) on Five Live Yardbirds and everyone's done a good one. I was really a bit frightened of it. I thought, "What's to be done?" I didn't want to blast out the solo like a locomotive or something, because it wasn't conductive to the vibe of the rest of the track. I was extremely aware that you had to do something different than just some B.B. King licks.[2]

I guess it's kind of obvious. The copycats get all the credit, but all they did was copy. The first people, immigrants, pioneers etc. Did all the hard work, but the copycats get everything. Also, note the mention of Coloumbus. He really wasn't the first to "discover" America. And of course, Amerigo Vespucci, after which America was named... not too sure why America was named after him, though. |

I don't normally like music in this genre but I really like this song. It's pretty straightforward what it's about, though I'm still surprised that no one's really commented on here yet... |

Where do you get that he killed his mother?
Maybe if his mom's involved then the completely so-called unrelated Isolation Years could be that his mom is in an insane asylum after he tried to kill her... I dunno, I'm just making stuff up...
This is an amazing song, though. |

Let out a sign, pretend to die
You're going to need an alibi
A broken arm, the same smell
So just relax, no one will tell
i dunno, but i kinda think that ^it's about the rockstar trying to disguise himself to keep from having his privacy invaded as all celebrities seem to do. |
