"Thank You" is a song by the English rock band LED ZEPPELIN from their second studio album "Led Zeppelin II" (1969). It was written by Robert Plant and Jimmy Page, and produced by Page.
In a retrospective review of "Led Zeppelin II" (Deluxe Edition) (2014), Michael Madden of Consequence of Sound praised the remastering of "Thank You", believing the track now sounds "mellow and well-balanced". Madden further praised the remastering, writing the track "breathes easy during the verses and ascends elsewhere in the song", along with "illuminating Page's touch and Bonham's haymakers". When reviewing the added bonus tracks of the Deluxe Edition, Madden further praised the new version of "Thank You", titled "Thank You (Backing Track)", writing the track "magnifies the song's tasteful sheen, popping with Bonham’s drums and Jones' organ, which seems to have a mind of its own.
The American singer-songwriter and musician Tori Amos record a great piano cover on this tune, released on the UK EP "Crucify". It was released as the fifth single from her debut studio album "Little Earthquakes", on May 12, 1992, by Atlantic Records in North America and on June 8 by EastWest Records in the UK.
The tune was also released as a live clip on her "Live at Montreux 1991/1992", a live album and DVD set, released on September 22, 2008 in the United Kingdom and on September 30, 2008 in the United States, featuring two separate performances at the Montreux Jazz Festival early in her career. The first 10-song set was recorded on July 3, 1991 with the second 9-song set recorded one year later on July 7, 1992. The bulk of the set list for each show was taken from Amos' solo debut album "Little Earthquakes". Enjoy today's tune!
