Yes Plant has an AWESOME voice.

It is a rhythmic thing. If you count the guitar riff it is in 3/4 yet the drums are in regular 4/4 so the downbeat of the kick drum turns around on it's self and the accents are on different counts of the riff.
ONE, two, three, one TWO, three, one , two , THREE, one, two, three, ONE, two, three, etc.... It is very clever.
Rhythmic patterns can be very hypnotic and alluring - just look at the long extended solo of "Light My Fire" by The Doors where the drums play a 3/4 against 4/4 rhythm. This is a rhythm that is used in Peyote ritual when the Shaman is going into his trance. The Doors didn't know this, they just thought it was a cool thing to do.
Kashmir has that Eastern, melodic, element also.
It is a great song. I wish there were more songs like it....

Joe put a great answer... and that's right. People say drummers are stupid, haha yeah right. And of course the orchestra with it sounded amazing. And I like what you put, the feeling of being in a weird room all alone... it really does have that kind of weird affect.
I adore modern rock to death, but there really isn't the same great music that bands had years ago... there aren't a lot of bands today that are half as original as Led Zeppelin. They're the greatest band ever, no doubt.

Ahhh, I LOVE that song. Led Zeppelin is my life. :o That's probably my favorite song by them.
I was reading something about it once. Some guy on a blog said:
"It's like the sand blasted the notes onto a tablet and dropped it in Page's lap."
I don't know, I just thought it sounded cool.

I don't appreciate Plants single stuff though. Jimmy Page was hot hot hot hot.
Kashmir takes the cake. If it was done by another band, it wouldn't be so amazing. The band definitely makes the song.

Happiness: drugs for the human beings-new eyes unhappiness- Manchester orchestra - the place have you ever been Nostalgia- Cristina Aguilera - genie in a bottle Anger - I attempt to no longer pay attention to that form of track anymore, even though it became probable by making use of korn

the Zep made it, of course it's awsome
I think it's the orchestra that makes it so spooky, and Plant's voice. He sings differently here than in say, Houses of the Holy.

the overall feel and mood of the song is awesome.jimmy page tuned his guitar real funky and used a violin bow to strum the chords.beat just drives on and on.every time it comes on the radio i turn it up.its the first song my daughter heard after she was born on the way back from the hospital.

It's either the orchestra or the massive amounts of acid that Led Zeppelin probably dropped before playing it! Ha! Just kidding! (kind of) I love that song!!!!!!!

the non-standard tuning that Jimmy Page used, along with the Eastern feel of the music overall, and the range of instrumentation utilized
