    Get more backlinks to your website. "Led Zeppelin Lyrics" is not a very competitive keyword and you should be able to rank for it soon.

    Are those dates on the posts right? May 08 is the earliest, If they are right, then you have done well to get to #1 spot on MSN, congrats.
    As for Google, well I think it may have something to do with the age of the site, back links and trust. you have all the keywords in the domain so that is a good start.
    As emldns has said, back links with the desired anchor text will be a great help, and as the domain ages, then you should gain trust and rank.

    EDIT: You could add a title attribute to your nav link..
    From
    <h1><a href="http://www.ledzeppelinlyrics.org">Led Zeppelin Lyrics</a></h1>
    Code (markup):
    To
    <h1><a href="http://www.ledzeppelinlyrics.org" title="Led Zeppelin Lyrics">Led Zeppelin Lyrics</a></h1>
    Code (markup):
    It may help!

    Cheers
    James

    Thanks. About 10 Ezine Article backlinks was all it took!

    Also, I'm too scared to do on-site stuff. MSN likes me, a small change and they BOTH might hate me.

    MSN cares more about on page factors and less about links than Google. Optimize accordingly.
