I personally am very interested in this proposition of Stairway To Heaven being Satanic. Can you please watch this video and let me know what you think about it? Thanks!
You know, I can't see anything Satanic in this song. It's just a great song with deep and philosophical lyrics. Almost all the songs sounds strange in backwards - if we'll try "The Crystal Ship" by The Doors or "Child In Time" by Deep Purple - we'll hear no less otherworldly sounding... And really Satanic songs - it's an apanage of Deicide, Mayhem, Gorgoroth, etc.
I sometimes think people are looking for stuff that just isn't there in a lot of the Led Zep songs. Although a huge amount of work went into the musicianship and production, Robert Plant would sometimes write the entire lyrical content of a track in a few minutes while sitting by an open fire smoking a spliff. Like Geezer Butler his lyrics were very much influenced by whatever he was reading at the time. A lot of Robert's mystical passages came as a result of his obsession with The Lord of the Rings.
