Jimmy Page Doesn't Rule Out New Led Zeppelin Music, Tour

Tweet

Even though their highly anticipated, Web site-crashing reunion concert is still one month and nine days away (we're counting), Jimmy Page is already considering what the future might hold for the reformed Led Zeppelin. Is new music in the forecast? "Look, I'd be really surprised if there wasn't - you know, I mean I just know the way we are," Page said, "we're musicians...as we're playing we'll probably be coming up with all manner of things." This would appear to run counter to Robert Plant's dismissal last month of the idea of an all-out Zeppelin tour, but Page is hedging his bets: "Basically we are concentrating on this show. That's where all the energy is going. I mean, who knows? But one step at a time."

“Karma Chameleon”

Culture Club | 1983

Boy George has said this song was about standing by what you believe in. However, at the time, he was involved in a secret affair with Culture Club drummer Jon Moss. "Now people can understand the songs better," he said. "They were written about my relationship with Jon, and they were also written about being a gay man in a homophobic world." The lines "If I listen to your lies, would you say/I'm a man without conviction/I'm a man who doesn't know how to sell a contradiction," described his life at the time, he said. "I was selling this big lie."
