"Ozone Baby" is a song by English rock group Led Zeppelin. The song was recorded at Polar Studios in Stockholm, Sweden during the sessions for the band's final studio album In Through the Out Door in November 1978 but it was decided to leave the song off the resultant album. After the death of Led Zeppelin drummer John Bonham in 1980, the band released an album of studio outtakes in 1982 entitled Coda, and this song was included on it. It was one of three songs recorded at Polar Studios which were omitted from In Through the Out Door and later released on Coda, the other two being "Wearing and Tearing" and "Darlene".
"Ozone Baby" is a straightforward, up-tempo rock song, featuring some harmonised vocal effects from singer Robert Plant. Few Led Zeppelin studio songs included harmonised vocal effects, but it had been increasingly utilised by Plant in live performances from 1977 onwards. Despite this, "Ozone Baby" itself was never performed live at Led Zeppelin concerts.
This song served as inspiration for the Fuel song "Ozone (sucker)" from their 1998 debut, Sunburn.

Famous quotes containing the word baby:
“Because humans are not alone in exhibiting such behavior—bees stockpile royal jelly, birds feather their nests, mice shred paper—it’s possible that a pregnant woman who scrubs her house from floor to ceiling [just before her baby is born] is responding to a biological imperative . . . . Of course there are those who believe that . . . the burst of energy that propels a pregnant woman to clean her house is a perfectly natural response to their mother’s impending visit.”
—Mary Arrigo (20th century)
