While Plant has said little of this song, I wonder if it pertains to Plant trying to move ahead in his solo career but so many voices telling him to go back to "old ground" - namely from the prior decade. After Shaken N Stirred, he did - well, a lot of the music, with a new Now and Zen line up. The rest is history, but this song is gorgeous, moving, and endlessly stirring.
