I can only think of a few other videos where a roller coaster is featured prominently. One of them is a great Joe Lynn Turner-era Deep Purple song....

Anyway, I'm not a fan of old-fashioned sounding songs, and therefore I have never much liked "Your Ma Said You Cried in Your Sleep Last Night." Honeydrippers stuff - bleh.

That "Anniversary" song is okay. Good at some points, but it's disjointed and it drags. I think it illustrates something about Robert Plant, at least in the first half of his solo career - solid even on the album tracks, not one of those artists with lots of "filler" material.

Interesting point on Robert Plant selecting his own singles (which harkens back to a thread of mine that flopped). I don't know if that is true, but he probably has had much more control over that than many other artists.
