I want this song to marry me, at least until I get sick of it... which might be in about 4 minutes.

I was being sarcastic. I think he wants to be Bonzo really bad. |

Saw these guys live in Fresno (had to drive 3.5 hours to get there dang it), but wow, what a show and this tune was pretty much the climax of the show — awesome. This is definitely one of my favorite Keys tunes.

Came out of the high north (Toktoyaktuk) down to Cowtown and listened to this CD every inch of the way. Some addictions are ...strange...

Is this song about the movie The Matrix? Listen to the lyrics and think about it.

I don't care whether this sounds like Stairway to Heaven - it doesn't taint the song enough for me not to LOVE it!

Just an hour ago, there was a red, open-bed, circa 1985 El Camino parked on 6th Ave. in Brooklyn, right across the street from my apartment.

I think you can pretty much put the lyrics of Stairway to Heaven to this song. Kinda funny...

Neh, I can't agree with you...but the "Warrior" has a nice start.

Guess they had some lyrics laying around they didn't know what to do with. I wouldn't be too proud if I were them, and I wouldn't want to see them profit, at least from this particular "effort". Maybe we could drop this little gem from the playlist and replace it with, well, how about some classic Wishbone Ash? Or at least something original.  |

I gave it a listen. There are some similarities in the first 30 seconds but plagiarism? Really? |

I like these guys but the John Bonham comments are utterly misplaced. Not only is the drummer here racing (as opposed to Bonham's behind-the-beat feel) but it's not even an attempt at Bonham's style.
Great album by a fun band who totally "get" the genre's they play around with.
