The song was voted #3 in 2000 by VH1 on their list of the 100 Greatest Rock Songs.[1] It was the most requested song on FM radio stations in the United States in the 1970s, despite never having been released as a single there.[2] In November 2007, through download sales promoting Led Zeppelin’s Mothership release, “Stairway to Heaven” hit #37 on the UK Singles Chart.[3]

I swear to god if I hear one more kid being like “I am 12 and I listen to
this, fuck modern music…” I might have to shoot someone. Well done you
have an opinion. Now stop waving it around to gain popularity. Idiots. 

MPAH1981 says:

How did this turn into a religious argument?? It’s all metaphorical. Fuck
that shit off and enjoy the music.

Ashley Johansson says:

“im a atheist and i like this song”

sooo!?!?!? this song isnt LITERALLY about religion and heaven, it uses it
for a metaphor/imagery like any other poem/literature would. Also Highway
to Hell by ACDC which many christians bashed because they seriously thought
ACDC were satanists but people are sooooo retarded to get that this is just
metaphor and imagery in creative literature. None of these songs literally
mean religious terms unless they are a Christian gospel band

For Example: When someone says something like “gosh, this weather is Hell”,
they dont literally mean its hell, they mean the weather is very hot. This
is basic English class material most people here fail to realize

Sir LaughsALot says:

So many christians degrading atheists here, yet you say we’re oppressing
you, when will we get peace?

Breached says:

I’m atheist but i just don’t care about that. This song is beautiful.
I’m 16 and I love Led Zeppelin, The Rolling Stones, The Beatles, AC/DC,
KISS,
Guns N’ Roses, etc… modern bands and singers are ruining music. They talk
about nothing just to get more cash. The only modern band i appreciate is
Arctic Monkeys but they cannot rivalize with these :)

Becky Lewis says:

Today’s Time Capsule Music is another one of the GREATEST SONGS OF ALL
TIME! Led Zepplin Baby! “Stairway to Heaven”

Spencer Hoberg says:

Meh, I’ll go with the highway.

sharon nicki says:

I bet heaven will be so beautiful. and more than anything, I will get to
shake the hand of Jesus and walk hand in hand with Him on the gold streets.
if he allows me to hold his hand though. right now my hands are dirty from
all the sins I have committed.

BobbyCrispy says:

Apparently George Harrison told Jimmy Page in 1971 that he should write a
ballad. So he did, and it became Stairway to Heaven. Jimmy even dedicated
the song ( somewhat ) to George because he uses some of the same chords in
the intro as “Something” by the Beatles…

Samuel Snehota says:

And she’s buying a stairway to heaven
– she is buying heaven with prayers

There’s a sign on the wall but she wants to be sure
‘Cause you know sometimes words have two meanings
– making excuses to commit sins

May Queen
– poem written by Aleister Crowley

Yes, there are two paths you can go by
– referring to left hand and right hand path

dunno, guys.. sounds pretty anti-christian to me..

come at me

Backfrom Thedead says:

A classic song for everyone by one of the greatest bands of all time .

Skooma Joe says:

I just randomly found this song on YouTube, and did anyone else notice all
the of the Lord of the Rings references in this? At first I thought I was
just being crazy, but I looked it up and turns out I was right. 

Doritos says:

for some reason this song always makes me tear up

All Cain says:

Everybody believes in God. Those who say they don’t are just mad at him.

ad87 says:

Tony Medina says:

I don’t know why but I feel really lucky that my parents didn’t raise me in
the new generation of anacondas, and drake who ever the F that guy is, and
im actually kinda sad that the rock age is slowly fading, I don’t wan this
to be an argument plz understand,I wish generation of rock was still being
made today, the reason Im learning to play guitar is bc of old rock songs
like led, aero, guns and roses, Nirvana 

M Satrio says:

1243 people are complete morons 

John Dwyer says:

I don’t know about the “stores are all closed” bit! We don’t use “stores”
in English. I think the line is “…if the STARS are all closed”?

Ajay Nadar says:

I want LZ logos on my back of my shoulders!!

Berklee Cohen says:

This isn’t religious school guys. Freedom of religion. Who cares if your an
Aethiest or a Christian. People can believe what they want to.

April Jackson says:

I notice on every video of an older song, people have to rag on modern
music, as if all modern music is the same. Get your heads out of your
asses. Maybe if you didn’t generalize all music today, and actually took
the time to uncover talented artists (who aren’t even that underground),
then maybe we’d make these talented artists more popular by supporting
their work, thus populating the radio stations with decent songs instead of
Bieber and Nicki Minaj. People want to bitch and moan but don’t want to
help lend recognition to those who deserve it.
And PS to all these teenagers who brag about listening to older music–WE
FUCKING GET IT. So like popular songs from the 70’s and 80’s, do you want a
medal? Get over yourself, you all sound obnoxious and self-congratulatory.

Giovanni Anabelle says:

I wanted to add that people sometimes say “I am an atheist”, yet, they have
God like qualities. For example: they love, want peace, hate injustice,
etc. 

Grace Murray says:

BLESS THIS SONG

MaSchu PL says:

greatest rock song of all time

Chris Hall says:

the ignorance of the comments

Sexual Offenderman says:

— wonders –

pix046 says:

This could be the greatest song ever..

Draken Slayer says:

I’m 15 and I hear music like led Zeppelin and AC/DC and I think what the
fuck happened to my generation?!?!?

Zerachiel van Mark says:

*starts playing the opening chords on an expensive guitar in music shop*

Rove says:

THE BEST SONG EVER

Thederpycanadian says:

Who gives a shit about this song backwards or the religion in the song just
listen and enjoy

TeenTube N says:

if you record the song backwards in reverse from 4:19 to 4:40, you can hear
the guy singing say, “here’s to my sweet Satan, the one with little paths
who will make you sad to now all Satan, he will give you 666 sweet
Satan.” i’m not hearing things because i tried it my self to support my
own proof. go and try it!

Harry Caine says:

The whole song is great, but when Jimmy wrote that solo he must have
realised he had just touched the sun. The only two guitarists ever as great
were Gilmour and Hendrix.

Cherif Grib says:

who the fuck in this earth would dislike this

Ria says:

Time and time again I realise that someone’s most famous work is almost
never their best one.

Iza Kiladze says:

** <3 **

Speedy Redshoes says:

Although I’m atheist, I do like Christian songs! ^^ I have SOME religious
beliefs, but, to me, it doesn’t really count…this song is beautiful, but
I’m not a big fan of the voice…but Christian songs can BE pretty, or fun,
or, whatever, but some Christian songs allows atheists to give their own
view, for example, “Hero”, by Skillet! ^^ While others don’t give a choice,
but still can be good, like this song! (I admitted I’m atheist, let the
haters roar! xD)

themightyhastone says:

Why the hell would anyone dislike this!?!?
Close your eyes and enjoy the gift given from this masterpiece.

Justicia Satria says:

I don’t f*cking care about how old you are, and what’s your religion. Just
listen to the f*cking song!

Calogero LoPorto says:

Hello I am 13 and pro-libertarian, as well as pro-second amendment, and
pro-hunting

Andrew Butcher says:

It’s what I said

Pyromancer 999 says:

Why is there a comment war here between atheists and non-atheists. Why
can’t we all just get along and appreciate how beautiful this song is? We
should just accept people’s beliefs instead of trashing them. Also to the
younger people (predominantly teens) here who are bragging about listening
to this style of music, stop bragging. You do have good taste in music, but
don’t flaunt it around to gain popularity.

modern music is shit… this guy rocks.
