This is awesome for Robert- and definitely deserved. He's the greatest voice in rock and Led Zeppelin can never be out-rocked, or imitated by anyone- never happened and never will- Congrats to Robert!

Plant said "I'll bet none of those other sods who've got one of these things ever banged a groupie with a frozen fish before..."

Thanks Plant and Led Zep for all the Great Music and 'Good Times'.
No.1 Rock-n-Roll Band of All Times. They could play anything...
I can't tell you how many times Led Zep was played on camping 'trips' in the North Georgia mountains growing up in the 70's..

What does one do to get this distinguishment? Those Brits confuse the heck out of me.

I do not like the way the article suggestively says : "...putting the former Led Zeppelin front man one notch above his old band mate Jimmy Page"
There is no "front man". It is the whole Led Zeppelin band that we adore - not John Bohnam, Jimmy Page, Robert Plant or John Paul Jones individually.
Aaaaah... There is no true journalism and news reporting anymore.

I wonder what Plant would have said if he knew in 1978 that this honor was coming to him. It's funny if you think about it because he's been put into a league of people who would probably abhor the lifestyle he lived for so long. I'm not knocking Plant at all. It's just funny, that's all. Congrats, Robert! Enjoy the honor.

Have you ever seen "The Song Remains the Same" concert film?

What is that in Plant's trousers?

A zucchini?

Maybe he should have received the GCBE award:

The Giant Cock of the British Empire.

Ohmigod, I love it!!!
Just today, I was driving with my kids jamming out to Whole Lotta Love, and on the part that it gets all psychedelic and trippy,
my daughter says,
"Sounds like he's gotta sneeze".
Ahhh-Ahhh-Ahhhh

I thought, "Wow, I never thought of it before, but, yeah, it kinda does!!"

~Congrats to Robert Plant- he is a Rock God~

Hurray! Led Zeppelin was one of the few acts I loved (since I generally hate pop music). Love the tongue in cheek attitude too...so out of place in the "center of the universe" attitude of the (barely) average pop artists that came later.
