"Come with Me" is a song by Puff Daddy & Jimmy Page that was featured on the soundtrack for 1998 Godzilla film. The song sampled the Led Zeppelin song "Kashmir", with Jimmy Page`s approval. Page and producer Tom Morello also supplied live guitar parts (Morello also played bass on the song). The song also features heavy orchestral elements. It reached #2 in the UK.
A music video featuring both Puff Daddy & Jimmy Page was made for the song.
This collaboration was number twenty-seven on VH1`s "Least Metal Moments"[1] in a segment subtitled "It`s All About the Zeppelin", because many metal fans and musicians didn`t like the remake. Nick Menza formerly of Megadeth called the Puff Daddy/Jimmy Page collaboration "a blasphemy".

When the album Presence was released, the lyrics of "Nobody`s Fault but Mine" invited speculation as to what the song was actually about. Some thought
When the album Presence was released, the lyrics of "Nobody`s Fault but Mine" invited speculation as to what the song was actually about. Some thought it concerned Jimmy Page`s blossoming heroin addiction. Others thought it was comparable to Robert Johnson`s "Hellhound On My Trail" in that it was Plant lamenting Led Zeppelin`s supposed deal with the devil.
From 1977 onwards, "Nobody`s Fault but Mine" became a vital component of Led Zeppelin concerts, and was played at virtually every show until the group`s final tour of Europe in 1980. One live version, from Led Zeppelin`s performance at Knebworth in 1979, is featured on disc 2 of the Led Zeppelin DVD. During live performances, Plant often exclaimed, "Oh Jimmy!" right before Page went into his guitar solo. The hook and many of the lyrics in the song were taken from American blues singer Blind Willie Johnson, who recorded it in 1927. Johnson never applied for a copyright for the song and so the band was free to apply their own.

`Thank You` is a slow ballad and signaled a deeper involvement in songwriting by Plant, being the first Led Zeppelin song that he wrote all the lyrics
`Thank You` is a slow ballad and signaled a deeper involvement in songwriting by Plant, being the first Led Zeppelin song that he wrote all the lyrics for. According to various Led Zeppelin biographies, this is also the song that made Jimmy Page realize that Plant could now handle writing the majority of the lyrics for the band`s songs. The first lines of Plant`s composition heavily resemble those in the Jimi Hendrix song "If 6 Was 9".
The song features some delicate organ playing by John Paul Jones, and ends with the organ fading into near-silence before coming back about 10 seconds later. This has created a problem for radio stations wishing to play the track, which must decide whether to accept the "dead air" or cut it off.

Led Zeppelin first recorded this song for their album Led Zeppelin III in 1970. The album is a shift in style for the band towards acoustic material, influenced by a vacation Jimmy Page and Robert Plant took to the Bron-Yr-Aur cottage in the Welsh countryside. The music suits the building tension in the song. It begins as a simple acoustic guitar rhythm, and builds to a crescendo of mandolin, banjo, drums, bass and electric guitar, increasing in tempo as the song progresses. The acoustic guitar chord progression (in standard tuning) is simple with a riff based on variations of the open A chord and the chords D and G occurring in the verse. The Led Zeppelin version is unique in that, despite the bribes, which he accepts, the hangman still carries out the execution.
