Плант много лет является поклонником
творчества Скипа Спенса и знаменитой в
60-х команды Moby Grape. Ранее он уже делал
каверы на их песни "Nakedlf l WantTo" и "805".
Исполнял он свои версии композиций Moby
Grape и на концертах - "Lazy Me" вместе с Priory
Of Brion и "Sitting By The Window" c Strange Sensation.
Для альбома "Dreamland" он выбрал малоизвестную
"Skip's Song", оригинальная демо-версия которой
появилась в 1967, позднее эта песня вошла в альбом
Moby Grape 1969 года под названием "Seeing".
"Ещё до того как мы с Джоном Бонэмом познакомились
с Джимми Пейджем, я перепел едва ли не половину
песен Moby Grape, - вспоминает Плант. - Мне очень
хотелось снова взяться за них, и особенно мне
нравится "Skip's Song" - она берет свое начало в
мрачных, глубоких сомнениях и смятении, которым,
наверно, был охвачен Скип. Мне показалось, что
это действительно замечательная песня: взялся
за неё - и вперед".
If you'd seen the naked dream
I had of you
Would you care
And would you now come through
Take me far away
My wiles and mind can't beat a dream of death today
Hard to get by
When what greets my eye takes my breath away
In my dream you are around the stars
I watched your walls all fall away
You were bare of thoughts, we were to part
And we stayed that way
Some try to hide
Because they lied
They were not true
And they were afraid
They refuse to see
Or be free, be one to gods, they prayed
Cryin', "Save me, save me!"
Save me, save me, save me!
I'll save you, can I spend you?
And now this naked dream
I had of you
And Will you care
And will you now come through
Take me far away
My miles and mind can't beat a dream of death today
Hard to get by
When what greets my eye takes my breath away
Cryin', "Save me, save me, save me!"
I'll save you. Can I spend you?
Plant for many years is a fan
creativity of Skip Spence and famous in
60s Moby Graph team. He had already done earlier
Caves for their songs "Nakedlf L Wantto" and "805".
He performed his versions of Moby compositions
Graph and at concerts - "Lazy Me" with Priory
Of Brion and "Sitting by the Window" C Strange Sensation.
For the album "Dreamland" he chose a little -known
"Skip's Song", the original demo version of which
appeared in 1967, later this song entered the album
Moby Graph of 1969 called "Seeing".
"Even before John Bonham and I met
With Jimmy Page, I quadged almost half
Songs Moby Graph, ”recalls Plant. - I am very
I wanted to take up them again, and especially me
Like "Skip's Song" - it originates in
gloomy, deep doubts and confusion, which,
Probably Skip was covered. It seemed to me that
This is a really wonderful song: I have taken it
For her - and go. "
