Communication Breakdown Lyrics

More breaking news----Most of Led Zeppelin's early(and some not-so-early) lyrics were ripped off from somehwere. "Dazed and Confused" is a rip-off of Jake Holmes' "Days of Confusion". "Bring it on Home" is a direct rip-off of Sonny Boy Williamson. Lyrics were lifted from Bukka White's "Shake 'Em on Down" for "Hats Off to (Roy) Harper" and "Custard Pie". "Boogie With Stu" is a rip-off of Ritchie Valens' "Ooh, My Head". You'd have to throw away a huge chunk of their catalogue if you dismiss the songs that were "borrowed". Nowadays more proper writing credit is given on listings for Zeppelin songs. But it's like Jimmy Page himself said (the guy who posted before this, not the real Jimmy Page), none of these people could do any better, and the music has obviously been completely re-worked in every one of those songs.
