Led Zeppelin's 'Stairway To Heaven' Breaks Into UK Top-40

For the first time...

Led Zeppelin’s ‘Stairway To Heaven’ has entered the UK singles charts at number 37.

The recently reformed band’s song had previously only appeared on their untitled forth album released in 1971.

However, due to recent changes to the charts rules – which allow download releases to become chart eligible – the song has broken into the top-40 for the first time.

Despite its popularity, ‘Stairway To Heaven’ was never released as a stand alone single.

It has made its chart debut in 2007 because it features on the band’s digitally re-mastered retrospective, ‘Mothership,’ which entered the album charts at number 4.
