"Shining in the Light" is a song by Jimmy Page and Robert Plant from their 1998 studio album Walking into Clarksdale. Issued as the album's second single on 30 May 1998, the song reached No. 6 on the US Billboard Mainstream Rock chart.[1][2]

The track contains an overdubbed string section performed by Page on the Mellotron. Added as a guide, the overdub was inadvertently left in for the album release.[3]
