I just read the story behind “stairway to heaven”

I never gave it a chance because it sound like an old dad song . I always heard it on the radio growing up . It always sounded boring to me TBH.. But I kind of related it to it . I thought the more beautiful I could become I could “buy a stairway to heaven” the more money I could have . I could essentially buy my way to heaven . There was another path . A spiritual way. It makes me wonder … and after jimmy pages guitar solo and Robert Plants deep “AND AS WE WIND ON DOWN THE ROAD”! . I was like whoa !!!

You heard it on the radio because, despite never being released as a single, it was the most-requested song when people phoned radio stations to ask them to play something. That used to be a thing back then.

There's a theory that it's about Galadriel from "Lord of the Rings," but Led Zeppelin has denied this.
