"Darlene" is a song by English rock group Led Zeppelin. It was recorded at Polar Studios in Stockholm, Sweden during the In Through the Out Door sessions in November 1978.

Due to space constraints, the song was not included on In Through the Out Door. It was left unreleased until 1982, when it was included on the album Coda. 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 " Ozone Baby" and " Wearing and Tearing".

John Paul Jones plays barrelhouse piano on this track. Jimmy Page performs 1950s rockabilly-style riffs throughout.

This is the only song from the In Through the Out Door sessions which was credited to all four members of the band. It was never played live at Led Zeppelin concerts.
