Zeppelin, Psychedelics, long hair, tight jeans it was a recipe for a perfect Friday night in the 70's. We had so much fun, freedom and the best music.
We had the best and it has never died
we could be friends
@@susancunningham2671we’d have great music in common 😊
You have to listen to the studio version. It's the most ICONIC song ever recorded. Listen to the version we've all known for 50+ years. It's perfect!
Agree..❤️🌸✌🏻
Agreed
Definitely agreed!
The iconic studio version is much much better than the live version
100%
I’m speechless every time I hear Led Zeppelin so much emotion and energy
@joannethompson5224 No one could ever buy their way into heaven. Only when one admits their sinful condition. Believes (has Faith) that Jesus Christ is the Son of God and shed his blood on the cross for the forgiveness of sins. When one has faith (believes) in the finished work that Christ Jesus completed on the cross. When one believes (has Faith) that Christ rose from the dead on the third day. Repents (changes their mind) and asks God/Jesus Christ for the free gift of eternal life - to know him (Spirit to spirit. One must be born again, born of the Spirit (Holy Spirit), born from above. Read your bible (the gospel of John chapter three.) No religion needed. Just faith, faith plus nothing.
Amber, Amber, Amber, you made my soul sing watching you get “it!” You’re right on the money when you defined this song as an experience, and as such it was meant to be enjoyed with friends. Thank you so much for the two of you for inviting us to experience “it” with you. 👍🏻👍🏻
Page's greatest live performances include In My Time of Dying, and the 28 minute version of Dazed and Confused (greatest guitar solo ever recorded)!
And just for the great thumping beat, Earls Court Trampled Underfoot :)
Agree, as much as they like different ways to play Guitar, Page running that Violin Bow across the Strings was magical to me. And still is, no matter who does it. However He was the first that I saw.
Dam right it was....
Studio version next. Stairway to Heaven was constantly listed in yearly countdowns in the top 3 songs of all time for decades. That's because the studio version was perfection. No live version can equal it. !5 years ago Casey Kasem was doing his greatest hits count down when he said that Stairway to Heaven was the 2nd most requested song in history. #1 .... Happy Birthday.
Occasionally trading the top spot with the Eagles "Hotel California" or Aerosmith's "Dream On"...but yes always top 3.
And the song Robert Plant and Jimmy Page hated to preform in concert
studio version for sure.
They called this the Original. Nope.
@@rarelycares8416 (*Occasionally trading the top spot with the Eagles "Hotel California" or Aerosmith's "Dream On"...but yes always top 3.) These 2 songs are all time greats.
I saw Robert Plant live! Our seats were so close to the stage I could literally see his face. My late husband was a huge fan. He camped out to get our tickets. Plant’s performance was incredible! That is a night I will never forget as long as I live ! ✌️❤️
You gotta hear the STUDIO version! LIKE WOOOW!!!
TSRTS is better
Watching them perform this live is awesome but you really need to listen to the studio version which is beyond amazing. Love Led Zeppelin!
I saw Led Zeppelin back in 1971 in the Ulster Hall, Belfast.That was actually the first time they performed this new song ,"Stairway" live at the beginning of a tour.Lord Of the Rings was being read by many of us back then so you can see the lyrical influence in some of Zep's songs such as this one.The Irish Troubles were just under way and would continue for nearly thirty years and Belfast was not too safe, with murder everywhere , but the band came anyway and were much appreciated for performing for us hippies in something of a war-zone. More recently I actually met Robert Plant after seeing his own band a few times in Belfast and had a great conversation behind the scenes about all sorts of things(Did you know he fancied being a stone-mason?).A couple of us were guests of his keyboards wizard John Baggot ,so we had a very special all-access time .Referring to the Belfast gig fifty years ago when I was nineteen he said...I was only twenty -three myself ... and we hardly knew what we were doing back then!!
Fun story
Awe my man, so cool witnessing Led Zeppelin in 71. Thank you for sharing comment, again so cool.
@@djl9919 I loved that teenage gig, Lionhart and especially under those circumstances where one minute we were listening to the band on each others record decks at home alongside Clapton, Mayall , the Beatles and the Stones and suddenly we got to see them live in a proper rock n roll venue.That was a great night.I told Robert i enjoyed his new band equally for different reasons ......He said ...aye...more texture ! You bet !He is still the business.
@@2paddykool well done my man, I mean it. I'm glad Plant branched into different music also. but I did buy his CD's in the 90's. sir it was a pleasure reading your comments. I really dig it. Enjoy your time
PLEASE -- Do NOTTT stop these crescendos that artists have spent sooOooo much time & effort creating!!!!!!!!!!! The obvious solution is NO stopping the songs in the FIRST place. This & other songs are ART. THANK YOU.
I think there will never be a song more EPIC then "Stairway To Heaven"...It is the most ICONIC ever! 😍❣🎸🎼
Jimmy Page is absolutely amazing! That’s definitely why listening to a song live is great. But still listen to studio version.
That solo was pretty janky from Jimmy imho
Got clunky in places.
Jay & Amber, you'll love their "Rock And Roll" and "Living Loving Maid (She's Just a Woman)"!!!
I 2nd them.
And it took a full band, an orchestra & three choirs to even come close to what you just watched performed by 4 guys. 🤘🎶❤️
Word!
hy guys,you have to check out to Alip_Ba_Ta,he is a one of the best guitarist fingerstyle in the world from indonesia,and he have huge fans that make your channel blown, if you react to him..

Thank you Jay and Amber for doing this timeless classic. Like so many people, I have heard this song a thousand times, but watching your reaction made it new for me again. You can't really go wrong with Jimmy Page solos, but here are a few that I think stand out. Some you may have already heard:
"Heart Full of Soul" (live, as a member of the Yardbirds)
"Good Times, Bad Times"
"Communication Breakdown"
"I Can't Quit You Baby" (check out the "live" version from the 'Coda' album!)
"Hearbreaker"
"Since I've Been Loving You"
"Celebration Day"
"Out On the Tiles"
"Black Dog" (I think you have done this one, but it never gets old)
"Rock and Roll"
"Traveling Riverside Blues"
"The Song Remains the Same"
"Over the Hills and Far Away"
"No Quarter"
"Custard Pie"
"Kashmir" (check out the live version from the 1979 Knebworth Festival!)
"Achilles Last Stand"
"For Your Life"
"Nobody's Fault But Mine"
"Tea For One"
"In the Evening"
"One Hit (to the Body)" (guest spot with the Rolling Stones)
"Scarlet" (guest spot with the Rolling Stones)
"Heaven Knows" (Robert Plant solo from 1988)
Superb list! I would add--maybe cos i just listened to it, lol!--"The Rover"! There ARE Zep songs (and most excellent ones at that) that don't have a solo, like Immigrant Song and Dancing Days, but you can't really go wrong with ANY Page solo!
@@bretsalyer I am sure that Jay and Amber have already done that one.
I’ve always loved the musical progression of this song sonically representing an ascending stairway!
You finally listened to THE REAL THING!!! One note is that they traditionally perform Stairway at the END of their concerts ... so you are watching them work after two hours or MORE of songs ... they are tired and winding down but have so much still to give to this final song. Watch closely and you can see their sweat.
Remember ... it is just the four of them performing on the stage.
I saw them in Concert, for me is the BEST band ever, the experience that I had are indescribable. Thanks for playing this original version. One their best song.
My interpretation of the hidden meaning of this song. But first the lyrics to the song, which are followed by the interpretation:
There's a lady who's sure
All that glitters is gold
And she's buying a stairway to Heaven
When she gets there she knows
If the stores are all closed
With a word she can get what she came for
Ooh ooh and she's buying a stairway to Heaven
There's a sign on the wall
But she wants to be sure
'Cause you know sometimes words have two meanings
In a tree by the brook
There's a songbird who sings
Sometimes all of our thoughts are misgiven
Ooh, it makes me wonder
Ooh, it makes me wonder
There's a feeling I get
When I look to the west
And my spirit is crying for leaving
In my thoughts I have seen
Rings of smoke through the trees
And the voices of those who stand looking
Ooh, it makes me wonder
Ooh, it really makes me wonder
And it's whispered that soon, if we all call the tune
Then the piper will lead us to reason
And a new day will dawn
For those who stand long
And the forests will echo with laughter
If there's a bustle in your hedgerow
Don't be alarmed now
It's just a spring clean for the May queen
Yes, there are two paths you can go by
But in the long run
There's still time to change the road you're on
And it makes me wonder
Your head is humming and it won't go
In case you don't know
The piper's calling you to join him
Dear lady, can you hear the wind blow?
And did you know
Your stairway lies on the whispering wind?
And as we wind on down the road
Our shadows taller than our soul
There walks a lady we all know
Who shines white light and wants to show
How everything still turns to gold
And if you listen very hard
The tune will come to you at last
When all are one and one is all, yeah
To be a rock and not to roll
And she's buying a stairway to Heaven
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
My interpretation of the hidden meaning of this song is below:
He is singing about Satan (the Piper), calling you to join him, and he will lead you to [his] truth.
Stairway to Heaven = a reference to eternal life in the abode of God and the angels, traditionally depicted as being above the sky.
The stores are closed, but the (the May Queen) = those who must be pure in their seeking, those who seek to be a "Rock" (a god), can get what they want with a word (submission to Satan), it can't be purchased with money or in a store.
Words have two meanings = Satan's truth can be a lie, and earthly riches (gold) can make you poor (spiritually dead)!
Forests = those of this fallen world.
Whispering wind = (Satan has the authority of the air) and uses music and the media, and your stairway (to Heaven or godhood, depends on his words).
May Queen = symbolized as the woman of purity (One seeking godhood, or their own truth, while denying or rejecting the True God, Yahweh, the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit).
Songbird = (Artist used by demonic forces) is a bird that utters a succession of musical tones (Words or songs with double meanings and secret meanings, which are suggestions from the Piper (Satan).
The Piper = (Satan) is ultimately teaching [his] truth, which is saying when "All Are One, And One Is All" (Globalism/Ecumenicalism), you can be a "Rock" (a god), which is the same lie told to Eve in the garden, where one can determine their own truth, their own right and wrong, good and evil...and not "roll" (die)!
The lie of Satan led to the fall of mankind, but truth and salvation are found only in Jesus Christ.
Jesus said, "The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I came that they may have life, and have it abundantly." (John 10:10 NASB).
Blessings, †
Thank you!! Now l know the words of the song and meaning.. and yes l was an teenager in the 70’s ..
Jimmy page is a genius this just three guys an a world class singer one of the best songs ever .Check out Led Zeppelin
Kennedy Center honors the song you just heard 3 musicians and 1 singer at the honors between 50-60 people on stage
Singing and playing this song as tribute to the song and band .Touches the heart brought a tear to my eye 👍💪🥲
The studio version is impeccable
"Since I've Been Loving You." I think this is my favorite Jimmy Page solo, but Plants vocals are unbelievable, and Bonhams performance on the drums is completely sublime.
And then there's John Paul Jones.
A lot of people miss his contribution in their compositions. I think this really shows off JPJ's complete skill as an artist of the highest order. Jimmy, Robert, and John, know they are painting on someone else's canvas, and they are only adding masterful highlights with the greatest respect for the work of art they get to add to.
I'll leave a link below.
Since I've Been Loving You
ruclips.net/video/1gHlbHtdVLU/видео.html
In the 60's we use to call Zeppelin Acid Rock. That's because this kind of music was great to trip on.
Nice to see to the young people keeping this still alive, this kind of music is timelles, and not have not to be forgotten
All yhe albums sounds really actually. Atemporal music.
One of the greatest guitar solos ever made. Listen original track on Led Zep IV.
That was THE BEST REACTION out there! I love watching people that love music like that!
They met Elvis 2 times. They sold over 300 million albums. The king sold over 2 and a half billion so far.
I remember slow dancing to this at my senior prom. So beautiful. GREATEST BAND EVER!
So glad you finally got around to this one, this is my all time favourite Led Zeppelin song. And I agree with everyone else, you definitely need to check out the studio version, as it's the version that made all of us fall in love with it. For Page solos, I'm sure everyone else in the comments will have a suggestion for that, but my recommendation is for a John Bonham solo that you will absolutely love! For that drum solo, check out the Led Zeppelin song "Moby Dick"! Either check out the studio version, or if you want to see John Bonham do his thing, check out the live version from Albert Hall in 1970.
Noooo never check out the studio version of Moby Dick. Any live version is a million times better.
My favorite rock song of all time. This was a grand slam out of the stadium homerun.
I just love your reactions to the songs of my teenage times.
God Blessed us with the greatest songs writers (Bands) in our times.
One of my favorites to play with my harmonica, I've been playing since I was 20, I'm 62 now
Paige did a retro on this song, looking back you could see everything from artistic excitement to reality regrets in his face, while he held it together. But he emphasized that the idea was to make it progressively seem like the tempo was gradually speeding up, when really it was not. It was still 4/4 timing with the same BPM.
It is also said by them that the song sort of wrote itself before them, when pen went to paper. See also his dealings with the occult, the tragedies that followed, and then go and play it backwards. We did it on vinyl when I was 10- it was crazy scary what words came out. That's all I'm going to say about that. But please, do try The Battle of Evermore.
Great reaction. I think you should do "Babe I'm Gonna Leave You" as your next reaction to LZ. It has the slow melodic stuff that you can close your eyes and get lost in, but it also has parts that rock pretty hard too. It's a great song to experience.
You both are helping me to rediscover this music.
My dad had the original recording of this song on old reel to reel RIP Dad 😞 my dad would play it almost every Saturday night when I was a kid I loved it then and I love it now ❤
imagine playing this on your burial, and looking down from heaven and see the faces of young family members when the guitar solo start to kick in, like wtf😂 they would cry for two reasons, one for the loss, the other for how beatifull it sounds.
like it or not, it is the most insane and best rock&roll guitar play ever. can't become better then this.
so good.
I'm happy that you enjoyed it, but I am sad that your first exposure to this song was the live version. The studio recording was the greatest, top-selling, piece of all time. Absolutely sublime. I don't know if Plant had a cold or what, when this live version was recorded. You want to hear him soar? Listen to the original.
100 percent agree!
I prefer the live version.
I think the live version was better than the studio version.
This version is better..
Rock stations often hold a Top 100 songs of all time over Memorial Day. The studio version of this always comes in as number one. One year a radio station in Colorado decided to cut to the chase and just played this song over and over again. "That was 'Stairway To Heaven' by Led Zeppelin, Coming up next is 'Stairway To Heaven' by Led Zeppelin".
Hey guys! If you want more like this from Mr. Page, you NEED to react to "white summer led zeppelin live", it has undoubtedly some of thee best live guitar work in HISTORY!!
For the last 52 years this song was voted the best rock song of all time. Except for one year lynnard skynnard. Free bird. Saw them 4 times. Saw Robert 2 times 1985 1988 Dallas. Yall keep on rocking my friends. Texas peace
If you want to experience a Drumming GOD, look for John Bonham's Moby Dick. It's a Drum solo that isn't easily matched (It is in my opinion on par with Neal Peart of Rush)
and as always I love the reactions that you 2 put out. keep up the great work.
Simply said simply the BEST
still one of the best songs ever written :-))
Iron Butterfly “In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida…the drum solo is epic.
We knew every word ,,,, and still do , to this entire Song 😁
Heart did do this song justice!! I love this song & I love Heart.
Meet Mr. Jimmy Page!!! He is AWESOME INDEED!!! Led Zeppelin was before my time when they made their legendary mark on Rock & Roll. But my brother introduced me to them. I've listened to them ever since. I've become voracious finding out more and more information on Led Zeppelin and how they became a band, how they broke up and why. I want to know how such brilliant minds and perfect talent were able to shake the Rock & Roll world and their songs now timeless. Loved your reactions. I get goosebumps every time I hear that song, studio or live version. Peace ✌
For you guys it has been hard to really comment on Stairway for you because I really want to put things right.
As a teen I listened to Stairway all the time and it was the soundtrack to my high school years.
Because we only had albums and rock magazines to see what the bands were like I always saw Led Zeppelin, my band, as one unit. The blend of all 4 together who did amazing work.
As an older adult I've come to appreciate them individually - especially showcased in Kashmir and Stairway.
JPJ I have seen as the unsung hero of the group. The guy who could play any instrument and was the one who was able to give us the special effects or feeling of a full on orchestra behind the band depending on the song. Plus the bass. He was the multi talented, quiet one who gave us so mwasuch.
Jimmy Page was the maestro of the band. The guy who along with the manager Peter, created it out of whole cloth in a matter of weeks to fullfill both a contract for the yardbird and a vision he had of a band. Jimmy has also been probably in the top 3 or 5 people ever of guitar gods. The GOATS of guitar.
Robert Plant has the pure voice for blues. He really shines when he does the blues. But, he also has done some of the most epic and stand alone singing of such song as Kashmir and Stairway that take you on a journey away from where you are and floating on a sea of forever. His is the voice of not just rock but, of dreams.
But, lately I have come to really appreciate Bonham more the I used to. His drumming is what was the foundation to the Zeppelin machine. He was the heart. And without him the band cannot do what it is legendary for doing. It just cannot find their voice or groove. Watch clips from their performance at Live Aid. They were good but, seemed off. Like they were off. The heartbeat was not there.
Until a young man grew up enough and got some experience under his belt to be able to play with Zeppelin. Not just with but, be a part of the group. Bonham's son Jason.
That was how important John Bonham was. And their manager Peter -cant' remember his last name - knew this way back in the early 70s.
Glad you are enjoying the Classics.....
You’ve got probably the greatest collection of musicians ever here. Jimmy Paige is, IMO, the greatest guitarist ever and Robert Plant is the greatest front man, with charisma that nobody had brought to the stage before. IMO, this is the greatest rock band ever. They were so in tune with each other that when Bonham passed away, they knew that they could never recreate that bond with a replacement and said goodbye.
JPJ. Peerless.
Makes you appreciate what Heart did live even more.
This video is from their legendary Madison Square Garden performance and was featured in their movie "The Song Remains The Same".
Well done guys, that's our Zepplin!
Iconic song of all time
Just no words for this
The only man in history that can make the words "Uh ha" sound sexy.
So I am 72 years old, so picture us in college getting high (sorry mom) and listening to this over and over! Crazy good track! Still number one on my Pandora playlist!,
You have to check out Kashmir, the Live From Celebration Day version, which has an older Robert Plant proving he's as powerful a singer as he was in the 70s. Awesome live version!
I was in the 24th row. I was trippin on the last of the Orange Sunshine that was available and MSG was engulfed in smoke from EVERYONE smoking weed all night long...even before the lights went out. I was there both Friday and Saturday...Saturday I was sitting up in the first promenade. In those days we all sat down for concerts so everyone could see and we all just absorbed the music from head to toe.
Another one you should listen to the studio version. Never gets old.
Loving Amber bopping away to this song!
What does Robert Plant, Bon Scott and Ian Gillian have in common? They can all scream in tune. They are the reason why Led Zeppelin, AC/DC and Deep Purple are the classics they are.
I wish I could go back in time to the first time I heard this masterpiece.
I like the studio version of Stairway to Heaven. Live is great Live.
this its the jam for all peolple in the world , comminnt!
The most requested song on the radio of all time.
Best song ever made.
Gotta say it... no one played guitar like Paige. Not Jimi, not SRV, not Van Halen. His extended solo in this live version is chocked full of ad-libbing, as a solo should be, but the studio version was just perfect (like that amazing playing on Chicago's "25 or 6 to 4"). I was only a peripheral fan of Zeppelin (I only had the first three albums), but the varied styles and progressions have always been appreciated. Bonham played with amazing groove for not "groove" music... we used to say he played a "lazy snare", although he was always right there. All of those guys were amazing.
This is otherworldly.
Watch Dazed and Confused live! He plays with a violin bow, which will blow your mind!
Robert Plant was our golden haired rock god of the 70s. Jimmy Page didn’t just play the guitar but he breathed life to it. John Paul Jones kept the slow steady tempo, that builds and builds up with the passion of Plant’s voice. John Bonham gave the whole band a heartbeat. Sheer rock, pure and simple. But yet … complex and passionate. One of top 5 rock bands ever.
Mr. Jones is almost always mentioned last in the bunch, but his contribution is WAY underrated and understated. He assembled the technical arrangements and oversaw much of the band's actual production. That, and he's a musical GENIUS, a master of many different instruments. One of the great bassists...I understand he is still busy in the industry...
One of the top 1 rock bands ever you mean 😉
Bonham was IMO the the main ingredient that made LZ so great..
top 3 :)
@@DarkSim77 Yes. He not only played the bass, he WAS the BASE...
Hi .. I was sitting in the 9th row orchestra at MSG way back in 1973 when they were filming TSRTS. I was 16 years old then & I'm now 66 .
Zeppelin played close to 4 hrs. that nite .The whole concert was truly unbelievable. Please enjoy your Zeppelin journey . I'm still on my journey Enjoy .
Dude I was on the floor. Vietnam Vet, friend of mine pulled out 4 tickets for the Saturday night show, and his chick's cousin. Flew up and back to Dallas, 1 fantastic weekend.
We probably passed a doobie between us:)….
I'm a few years behind you. I saw them at Greensboro Coliseum in 1977 when I was 15. It was my birthday and my older sister and her boyfriend took me. She loved Zeppelin too...I fell in love with them from listening to their albums that she bought.
Legends all of you. 🙏
My husband was there too!
There are no bands like this anymore, it’s a bygone era, I’m 70, i was in a rock band at the time and was 20 years old or so, we covered all the rock hits, but this song always got a standing ovation from the crowd, man those were the days.
I'm 65 and just went through the current UK top 40 and picked a few songs to listen to at random. It's tragic how dull they are.
I'm 64, I never played an instrument and I regret it but I can tell the difference between the music they play today and this one. Those were times when you couldn't get up on a stage if you hadn't real talent!
I'm 61. I concur!
Man you can say that again
Nowadays you don't need any talent to be a recording artist .You only need good make up and a skimpy outfit,oh and it helps if you are gay and tattoed
Consider this: In the Heart tribute version there were probably 10 musicians on stage... and two complete choirs. Here you have 3 musicians and 1 voice. Epic!
Absolutely correct
If you get incredibly gifted musicians, 3 can DO IT! Whoop whoop
That’s when bands made the most $$$. Until Ed Sheehan did it solo. Beatles really did change everything
@@SusanJohnston huh?
unique masterpiece!
Written and released in late 1971 and today 52 years later the song is still as popular and strong as it ever was!! Led Zep Rocks!!
1973 Madison Square Gardens, NY
Stairway to heaven was the most requested song on radio for over 35 years. That's how iconic it is.
You should definitely listen to the studio version, which is perfect and has maybe the most iconic guitar solo in rock music. Also it should be noted that Page said these Madison Square Garden concerts were kind of average hohum gigs, not great or bad. It's just when they had the camera's and recording equipment scheduled. Edit: you said you want to hear some more Page hot live soloing, I think the live version of Whole Lotta Love from this MSG concerts has a lot a fun flashy improvised soloing in the middle of it. Page could be pretty sloppy, but he really could play very free and loose, and that's when he's best live.
studio version is far better
"How the West Was Won" from the LA shows a year prior is better overall.
I was there at all three shows. There was nothing average or ho-hum about them.
Geez if you don't think The Rain Song, Since I've Been Loving You, No Quarter etc at MSG are great then unplug your ears.
One of the greatest songs of all time; They will pull you in, mesmarize you . And teach you something, at the same time. Brilliant!
Agree!
@@johngrimkowski598 No one could ever buy their way into heaven. Only when one admits their sinful condition. Believes (has Faith) that Jesus Christ is the Son of God and shed his blood on the cross for the forgiveness of sins. When one has faith (believes) in the finished work that Christ Jesus completed on the cross. When one believes (has Faith) that Christ rose from the dead on the third day. Repents (changes their mind) and asks God/Jesus Christ for the free gift of eternal life - to know him (Spirit to spirit. One must be born again, born of the Spirit (Holy Spirit), born from above. Read your bible (the gospel of John chapter three.) No religion needed. Just faith, faith plus nothing.
O@@paulgemme6056
@@paulgemme6056 I'm a Christian I accepted Jesus Christ into my life his blood washed away my sins. This Iconic song has absolutly nothing to do with buying your way to be with God forever. IT"S SYMBOLIC ! It has to do with Life's changing journey and how people grow ,react, learn and find out how changing the straight road we educate our selfs and find the real meaning of life.
@@johngrimkowski598 Yes, but it does not tell the listener that Jesus Christ is the way, the truth and the life. It does not tell us that the only way to the Father (heaven) is by Grace through faith in the blood and the finished work of Christ that he completed on the cross. Peace be with you!
Jesus is the King of Glory!
Our living hope.
This song is so beautiful. Just the instruments used in the intro are captivating from their first notes.
This album is a masterpiece. Just saying. It blew our minds when it was released originally. Glad you loved it. More Zeppelin please. Thanks. Buckets of Maple Syrup love from Canada ❤️❤️ 🇨🇦🇨🇦
Its so nice to see young people enjoying the music us oldies loved when we were teenagers. Good music is timeless.
It's actually amazing!!! These kids are not just learning and enjoying (and making a couple of bucks) but they are turning on an entirely new generation to music that very likely could have been lost. I am all for this format!!
And will stay forever
dont worry, Zeppelin will never die as long as I remain on this Earth 🫡
Isn’t it awesome? My parents introduced me to classic rock as a kid, and I love watching other people discover songs like this!
More Karen Carpenter!!!
When Robert first sang this song he used to say” this a song of hope!” It gave all of us 14,15,16 year olds a feel of hope for the future! It was really a mantra for us growing up in the 70’s!!!❤️❤️❤️
Yeah it was! I’ve still got them on vinyl!!
Joan no one could have said that better than you! :} I graduated High School in 1975 and saw Zep on A Day On The Green at the Oakland Coliseum in July 77 which was unfortunately their last North American Live performance. Plants son passed away after they left Oakland and arrived in New Orleans and they canceled the rest of the tour and did not come back until 79 in Knebworth. We were so lucky growing up in the 60s and 70s. As a Teen in the 70s and now later in life its almost an indescribable era we witnessed back then. Such a simple mellow time of music, partying and no social media and all the electronic crap we have now, we went out side all the time and found things to do and friends to hang out with and chasin all the pretty girls and cruising the strip at night on weekends.. No school shootings and other mass shootings. I feel sorry for the youngsters today. I really do. But no doubt the 70s were a gem of a decade. I won't even get into the get sports teams we had just here in the Bay Area, The Raiders, 49ers, the 3 time World Champ Oakland A's, The Warriors. Fun times for sure!
@@Fritzw75 great job describing the difference between now and then! We were very lucky and smart enough to appreciate it! 😁
Fuckin right
You missed out us 18 year olds😮
This is my favorite song of all time. I don't mean this in a bad way, but I have seen them live. The put soo much effort in the recorded version and I think it is better than the live version. Just my opinion, you should also check out the original recorded version.
Absolutely correct..
Jimmy recorded 25 takes to get what you hear in the original studio version. The musical genius at his very best.
Heart’s cover version of stairway to heaven at the Kennedy center is awesome and chilling.
I agree with you.
Same. Saw them as Plant and Page at Madison Square Garden in 95 or 96. They were good... Studio is fantastic!!!!
Led Zepplin are Gods of rock and roll. Their music will stand the test of time for thousands of years!
A must is their live performance of “Since I’ve Been Loving You” at Madison square garden…it will blow your socks off 💕 You are an adorable pair (with beautiful children) I so enjoy watching you two react to the music I loved in the Seventies. 🌻
Rarely ever should you do the live version of a song first…no matter how good it may be…
Paul McCartney’s Maybe I’m Amazed & Peter Frampton’s Do You Feel Like We Do are a couple rare instances where the live version is better.
Led Zeppelin’s studio version of Stairway To Heaven IS the best version to listen to first.
That's what i have been saying or close to it. It really depends on the song what is going to be better, but you are right to start with the studio then go live. When it comes to Smoke on Water. the studio version sounds dead compared to the live Made in Japan version however when it comes to Whiter Shade of Pale no one mentioned the haunting sound of the organ expect for Day One reacts because she is the only one that did the studio version. Also i totally Agree with you about those 2 songs you mentioned. 'Frampton Comes Alive.'
While id agree for the most part that studio versions are usually best to listen to first, this live version absolutely blows the studio version out of the water and it isnt even close.
I keep saying the same thing to reactors.
The other song I would add to your list is Cheaptrick "I want you to want me". You have to do the live version. Much better and different than studio version. They made a huge mistake early in their reviews and did a liver version of The Ramones "Blietzkrieg Bop" that was horrible. NEVER introduce someone to the Ramones through a live concert. It's twice as fast as original and the words are incomprehensible. I think it totally turned them off of them.
It should just be a basic rule. A reactor trying out a new song can't know if it's one of those very rare ones where the live version is the best, so they just have to guess every time. There should be no guessing. Just always go with studio version, and then people will let them know if there's an iconic live version important enough to check out. I don't blame a reactor for it because again, they've never heard it and just don't know. But.. that's why there should be a standard to follow.
The solo in Since I've Been Loving You is considered the best by aficionados of LZ Jimmy ever recorded. Check it out.
The studio version
so agree. SO AGREE
By "aficionados of LZ" I guess you mean yourself? Check it out.
The live performance is amazing for it's free styling play, show causing Jimmy Page, and the vocals of Robert Plant.
But, I am a firm lover of the studio recording.
It is well balanced and blends the tones of it's highs and lows perfectly, for an astounding sound.
Amber would love the studio version, it's depth of sound takes you on a magical ride of the mind and soul.
I know you have done Heart and now the live versions, but you would not regret the studio version, the classic original version.
The vocals, really? Everyone I know who was actually around when this record came out were astounded at how terrible Robert plants vocals were on it.
@@squaaaaak3178 and now they old and love Justin Bieber, huh?
The live version has a life to it that the studio version does not but they are both great.
yeah Im partial to the Studio version...since thats what Im used to hearing
squaaaaak
You are the first person I have ever head call Plant's vocals "terrible" on this.
Clean yer fecking ears out matey.
Amber totally understands led zeppelin and what Stairway was about. It was a mystical song and built on that mystical feeling. Robert Plant was a student of old english mystical lore and alot of it was also part of Led Zeppelin. They started out like alot of english bands back then as a Blues tribute in their songs but, grew to incorporate other styles. Like the middle eastern feel of Kashmir. Or the old foggy mytical feel of Stairway.
There is so much depth to Zeppeling that needs to be explored
This is majorly influenced by Lord of the Rings, as other Zep tunes, such as Ramble On, Battle of Evermore, and Four Sticks.
Battle of Evermore!
And ofc Misty Mountain Hop 😊
@@daseguindude, Lord of the Rings didn’t exist then.
@@raybro3803
🤣🤣🤣
JRR Tolkien started writing that series of books in the 1930s.
The Real Rock Gods .... And this almost 50yrs old and still holds the test of time ... And Robert is 24 here with so much SWAG... Jimmy leaves MSG on his solo, Bonzo follows Jimmy per note
How many songs of today will people still be listening to in 50 or 60 years? None?
They're fuckin thieves! Damn near all their songs are stolen...facts! Look it up
@@dropzone3415 every band takes riffs from each other ...
Timeless music from the best band ever! #LedZeppelin
I met Jimmy Page when I was 17. My boyfriend was basically paralyzed from seeing this rock god. I got his autograph. Nice dude. 🤘
My dad introduced me to Zeppelin. They were his favorite band. He tried learning the guitar because he wanted to learn this intro. It’s one of the only songs I can play on guitar. He always said “play Stairway to Heaven at my funeral.” He passed away in 2019, and I made sure it was a song on his remembrance slide show. My stepmom did not think it would be a good song for a viewing, wake or funeral. But I insisted. She admitted later that it was a fitting song for his memorial.
I have only been able to listen to this song 2 times since that day. This being the second time. It’s so hard to hear it even now. Growing up this was one of my all time favorite songs. It still is, but I can’t hear it without breaking down. Even this time, I love watching y’all’s reactions to the music I grew up listening to. So I had to watch this reaction. It makes me happy to see others joy hearing this for the first time. I envy y’all being able to hear new music for the first time.
And it still makes me hurt thinking of my dad. I like to think anytime someone hears it for the first time, my dad smiles.
I love you dad and I miss hanging out with you listening to and talking music.
🥃
Sorry for your loss. Your Dad had some great taste in music.
What a perfect song! Beautiful choice to send him on his way x🙏💚
No offence to you or your dad _ but don’t try this in a guitar shop!!
@@thereaction8648 haha!! Yeah I respect the guitar shop rules.
Sorry for your loss mate. Very many props that you did your both thing at the funeral even noone wanted it. Very beautiful.
I do like the studio version a little more, but the thing that has always stood out to me in this video is Plant and Page perfectly demonstrating that quality that I think is even rare among rock stars, that people like Freddie Mercury, Bruce Springsteen, and Mick Jagger also have: to be perfectly comfortable in front of tens of thousands of people and just effortlessly take control of every single one.
Really? So weird the way two people can see something so completely differently. I always thought Robert plant's vocals on this live album were some of the worst I've ever heard. It's possible some of that was due to the recording/ sound engineering, etc.
@@squaaaaak3178 That's entirely possible. The quality of live recording is rarely as good as in the studio. But I was talking more about their stage presence, especially the way he was able to stand alone in a spotlight and sing a bunch of nonsense sounds in between the lyrics with complete confidence.
@@squaaaaak3178 Jimmy's guitar solo say something to you here? Bonzos drumming?
@@squaaaaak3178 His singing is really not the best (you can admit that without a doubt), but that's what makes it, the imperfect perfection. And despite all this, Led Zeppelin are miles better than today's bands, because they embody and mean exactly what they sing.
squaaaaak,
Plant was suffering from nodules on his vocal cords in 1973 and had to have an operation soon after this tour. He sang better in 1969, 1970, 1971 and much of 1972 but he's still good in places during the MSG gigs, particularly The Rain Song. He is amazing with that long note at the end.
Even under par Plant in 1973 is better than 90% of other front men.
“In My Time of Dying” live Earls Court 1975. He plays a slide and John Paul Jones plays a fretless bass right along with him. The drums and vocals are outstanding as well.
That was Earl Court 1975. RAH was 1970.
@@w.geoffreyspaulding6588 That’s right!
Robert Plant had a band for a while called the Honeydrippers. They did a version of the song Sea of Love. Think you might enjoy checking that out.😊
Also on that same album , theres good rocking at midnight
I think Page was on that as well. Plant's solo stuff is great too plus for some completely different versions of Zep songs try Plant with the Strange Sensations live.
"There's a feeling I get when I look to the West
And my spirit is crying for leaving
In my thoughts I have seen rings of smoke through the trees
And the voices of those who stand looking"
A few months ago, I hit a dark patch.... and this verse meant a lot to me.The faith (not necessarily Christian) and the imagery it brought to my mind was a huge help.
This song was the last song played at every high school dance when I was a teenager..♥️

@@HaleTheTrev No one could ever buy their way into heaven. Only when one admits their sinful condition. Believes (has Faith) that Jesus Christ is the Son of God and shed his blood on the cross for the forgiveness of sins. When one has faith (believes) in the finished work that Christ Jesus completed on the cross. When one believes (has Faith) that Christ rose from the dead on the third day. Repents (changes their mind) and asks God/Jesus Christ for the free gift of eternal life - to know him (Spirit to spirit. One must be born again, born of the Spirit (Holy Spirit), born from above. Read your bible (the gospel of John chapter three.) No religion needed. Just faith, faith plus nothing.
The next Led Zeppelin song you need to do is The Rain Song, absolutely epic. There is a live version on RUclips with a full orchestra back up. Incredible song and arrangement including a close up of Jimmy Page playing acoustic guitar throughout. It really is a must see.
I walked down the aisle to that song. I had picked it many years before I even met my husband. I think it's the most romantic song ever written.
Yeah the live version at MSG is even better than the studio version. It just has more going for it, and Plant at the end is incredible.
Listen to it with ambient rainfall sound in the background. Incredible.
The Rain Song!!!!! YES !!
"Rain Song" is tied as my favorite with "Battle of Evermore".
the tonal quality is ethereal, as is the chanter simulation by John Paul Jones on the keyboards. Live the guitar was drowning the canter out quite a bit. The studio was better because Jimmy was actually playing a 12-string acoustic-electric just a better sound to harmonize with chanter and vocals.
