aaaaand another thing... there is a reason that this song was never released as a single. it wasn`t just a plot to get everyone to buy the whole album so the band could make more money, it was to get people to LISTEN to the whole album and thus have a little more understanding about the band and the songs. there is a reason this song is sandwiched between "the Battle of Evermore" and "Misty Mountain Hop" on Zeppelin IV (or Symbols, or Untitled or whatever you want to call their 4th album). the album art is also there for a reason. from the cover art of an old man hauling wood to inside art with "the Hermit", the art lends itself to the overall feel of the whole album. Led Zeppelin IV. go buy it if you want to understand this better. oh, and no one in the band was satanic or anything else of that nature like many people like to say; some members were interested in the occult, but that is a far cry from satanism or atheism.

I'm pretty sure they were all atheist or at least agnostic. Why d'you pair satanism and atheism together as if they are similar?
