Created spontaneously when guitarist Steve Cropper asked Booker T. Jones to replay a riff. The rest of the band joined in, and the song quickly came together.

BREAKING: Hakeem Jeffries just demolished Donald Trump over the Government Shutdown:
"Donald Trump has found all of the time in the world to play golf. He can try and extort $230 million to line his pockets from the Department of Injustice. Somehow the Trump administration found $40 billion to bail out a right-wing wannabe dictator in Argentina but can't find a dime to extend the Affordable Care Act tax credits in order to make life and healthcare more affordable to hard-working American taxpayers. And Donald Trump is demolishing parts of the White House in realtime. Why? So he can construct some gaudy ballroom so that he can be celebrated as if he was a king.”
‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️ DO NOT BE DISTRACTED!!!
TRUMP & EPSTEIN ARE SEX TRAFFICKERS!!! I’m gonna post this every day so nobody forgets exactly who Pedophile Trump is and why the Epstein files have suddenly disappeared.
When Tish James walks into a courthouse tomorrow — the target of a political prosecution demanded by a President obsessed with revenge — she does not walk in alone.
New York has her back.
Grateful to Gov. @KathyHochul for bringing us together tonight.
Trump and MAGA Republicans are doing everything in their power to rig the 2026 midterms to retain power in the House of Representatives. In a representative Democracy voters pick who represent them in Congress, not the other way around. Listen to Obama👇and #VoteYesOnProp50
The Rain Song is one of Led Zeppelin's most atmospheric and emotional tracks. It's the second song on Houses of the Holy (1973), and it shows a softer, more orchestral side of the band.
Jimmy Page wrote the music using a tuning he created specifically for the song (DGCGCD), which gives it that dreamy, open sound.
He played it on a Danelectro guitar and layered in a Mellotron to mimic string sections.
Robert Plant's lyrics move through the emotional seasons of a relationship, mirroring changes in the weather-from cold and distant to warm and full of promise.

In 1978, Don Rickles accidentally broke Johnny Carson's cigarette box while Carson was on vacation. When Carson came back, he walked over and interrupted Don Rickles taping his sitcom to get revenge.
Easily one of the best late night moments ever 🔥
This is powerful. 👇
They called him "The Stupid"—and that's exactly what he wanted.
When Navy sailor Douglas Hegdahl was captured during the Vietnam War and thrown into the infamous Hanoi Hilton prison camp, he made a decision that would save hundreds of lives. He would play dumb.
Hegdahl acted confused, clumsy, harmless. His captors laughed at him. They gave him freedom to wander because they thought he was too simple to be a threat.
They were catastrophically wrong.
While pretending to stumble around, Hegdahl was secretly pouring dirt into enemy truck fuel tanks, quietly sabotaging their operations. But his greatest act of defiance was invisible: he began memorizing every detail about his fellow prisoners—names, capture dates, conditions—information the enemy deliberately kept hidden from the world.
256 names. 256 faces. 256 families who deserved to know their loved ones were alive.
How did he remember them all? He set the information to the tune of "Old MacDonald Had a Farm," singing it silently in his head, day after day.
In 1969, Hegdahl was released as part of a propaganda stunt. The North Vietnamese thought they were freeing a harmless fool.
Instead, they released one of the war's most valuable intelligence assets. The moment he reached American soil, Hegdahl delivered every name, every detail, ensuring that 256 prisoners would not be forgotten.
Sometimes the most powerful weapon isn't strength—it's the courage to let others underestimate you.
