There’s something so hauntingly beautiful and tragic about Led Zeppelin’s “I’m gonna Crawl”. Firstly, the fact that it was the final song on the final album that the band released while all of the members were alive. Overall, it’s a slow love song about wanting to do whatever it takes to get to his lover. Nothing new for the band.
But, combined with the previous song on the album being “All My Love”, it becomes even more emotional (at least to me). “All My Love” is dedicated to lead singer Robert Plant’s son who died while the band was on tour. At this point it feels like the band is on their last legs. Like they’re on their way out already; just as they’ve become more famous than they ever had. It’s so sad and beautiful and I love it so much
