- This song was AMAZING! Words can't explain how blown away I was by this song. I love everything about this track. Everything from Roberts voice to jimmy and john jamming their asses off was pure perfection.

There something particularly beautiful about a young black woman wearing a Metallica shirt jamming to Led Zeppelin. I love RUclips.
daniel robeson without a doubt
I was thinkin th esame thing..
Damn straight
Not surprising, though. Led Zeppelin and many other British bands from the ‘60s were reinterpreting the Delta blues by black musicians.
@@BenLapke ABSOLUTELY. Led Zeppelin 1 is a straight blues record. It's simple no blues no Led Zeppelin...No Zeppelin no Metallica. I heard Hetfield say in an interview that listening to "Communication Breakdown" is how Metallica was born
That John Paul Jones bass though!
Manager: Jonesie, we're paying you by the note on this one.
Manager's checkbook: (oh no, you didn't really)
Apparently a short time after the album dropped they had to give out a pregnancy test with every copy...
The bass line absolutely rules over this song in my opinion. One of the best ever written. 🤘🏼
Just a sick bassline and one of the best ever
Not written. Jonesy improvised. 😆
that bass the star of the show.
JP has the spotlight in this, for sure! I think it's interesting how clean they kept the bass, while adding a touch of distortion to the regular guitars.
This song was recorded in 1969 and it still sounds brilliant!
The bass work by John Paul Jones is amazing on this song!
'squeeze my lemon till the juice runs down my leg' is lifted from a Robert Johnson song, tis a homage of sorts :)
I think it was a Howlin' wolf song.
@@tommymcspadden1466 it was
When I heard the original, I recognized the similarities between these two songs.
Squeeze my lemon came from Robert Johnson. The rest of the lyrics are from the Wille Dixon song "Killin' Floor" Willie Dixon sued Zeppelin for all the songs of his they claimed credit for writing. "Whole Lotta Love" and about half the songs on Zeppelin I and II are Willie Dixon songs.
Zeppelin, and the Doors , both had a tendency to reference old blues songs. They knew where rock and roll originated. And they paid homage often. Hooker, Johnson and Waters all can be heard referenced
That funky BASS line baby !!!!! God bless JPJ!!
LOL!!! you can't imagine how many reviews of this song I have seen and NOBODY! has gotten that part of the lyrics! ( lemon, juice, leg, sex,etc. ), FINALLY! someone did, congratulations!. p.s. you're also very adorable! and have a pretty smile
It doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure out these lyrics but some Led zeppelin songs will have you mystified for life.
Michael Whitton Ahh, those rocket scientists must very busy developing rocketry and correctly interpreting blues songs.
Gregory Jewell one rocket scientist helped make this music.
"Traveling Riverside Blue" not just a Zep song but an experience...you wont be disappointed.
Can you survive a lyrical breakdown is the real question? ;)
John Paul Jones baseline is crazy good on this.
Such a voice, such guitaring, such drumming and such bass playing. Such a band!
When Robert Plant's voice was young and healthy, very fresh and strong!
@@artbagley1406 And so was the rest of him. They all were.
This song is so kick ass on many levels. It’s funky, grooves, and has a moodiness to it that you can escape to and never come out
John bohnam is an incredible percussionist rip
There is so much guitar goodness in this tune. A myriad of different techniques are demonstrated.
“Robert Plant’s lyrics were shocking at the time”
- RUclips commenters talking about a song released in 1968.
Meanwhile the lyrics about the lemon is an homage to Robert Johnson, who sang them in Traveling Riverside Blues, a song he recorded in 1937. Now that’s shocking for the time.
Thing is tho it wasn't shocking for the time ,people were wild and free back then. In 1931 there was a huge uproar and rules change in Hollywood movies because there were girls in lingerie or less in most every movie. Unfortunately most of those movies were lost in a fire about 80 years ago lol
T seems to have a real appreciation for JPJ's bass work. One of my favorites that I seldom hear anyone talk about is What is and What Should Never Be on the second album. I love that bassline. It's not fancy or anything, but damn it feels good.
Parking lot parties in high school 1971-'75. Great times.. :)
Straight Delta Blues right there. JPJ really killed the bass in the one. Love your smile listening to this.:)
My wife is watching Roland Martin wearing a Samhain t-shirt, wondering who I'm watching on youtube... I just said, another beautiful woman with good taste in music... She said "ohh T & T? Say Hi!!!" Agreed with your take on the song... Innuendo makes the art! Cheers! Peace!
YES YES and YES to Lyric breakdown of Led Zeppelin songs >>> the poetry & prose is AWESOME : U guys will love the words of GOING TO CALIFORNIA and TEN YEARS GONE
Ten years gone is my favorite Sep song. It matches my life but was about 40yrs sooner. And I love all of Zeps catalog and have many first release lp's
You guys should react to “ Whole Lotta Love “ and “ Dazed and Confused “ live at Madison Square Garden
Absolutely ! Both performances from TSRTS are incredible
Please! Please! Please!
Oh hell yes this is a must.
We can only hope they react to both epic live songs
God yes!
This came out when I was about 14; good thing our parents couldn't understand the lyrics, lol. These lyrics are mostly taken from old blues songs.
I got this album FOR XMAS from my parents when I was a sophomore in H. S. They never listen to it. Then as a young adult my mom and I worked at the same factory, so I would pick her up and drop her off everyday. One day they played this song on the radio. She said what is this? I told her it from the album you got me 72...she said WHAT!
Led Zeppelin started as a blues cover band. That influence was done though out their career.
@@glenporter4525 Yep
Robert Plant's lyrics were considered shocking at the time, but the song was so funky that it became wildly popular... even if they couldn't play it on the radio! lol Enjoyed your reaction video. :)
Robert Plant's lyrics? LOL
Steve Keeter the Classic Comics Man
Howlin Wolf...?
Yeah most of the lyrics on this song were taken from other songs. A blues compilation with Howlin Wolf as the template
@@blackflagsnroses6013 90% of everything zep did between 68 to about 72 were all reworked blues songs.. and honestly reworked versions of the yardbirds versions of old blues songs lol. Almost everything on zep 1 were songs the yardbirds did live but didn't record.
You mean Willie Dixon's lyrics?
WoW...I've been listening to that song for over 40 years and never made the connection to "squeezing him dry" financially. Very well done...You got a new subscriber just from that one observation!
Those lyrics came from a Willie Dixon song. Willie Dixon was a huge part of the 40's and 50's Chicago Blues scene. he wrote some of the most famous blues songs of all time. Led Zeppelin did a lot of his songs and then claimed they wrote them. Willie Dixon sued them and got paid big time before he passed.
thank howlin' wolf for this great song
I never saw such humility and appreciation in another person`s reaction to music. The music only stands in even greater stead when observed with the degree of elegance that contemporary listeners like this bring to the vibe.
I learned every guitar lick I know from this song 😉
Notably "squeeze (my lemon) till the juice runs down my leg," can be traced to Robert Johnson's "Travelling Riverside Blues". It is likely that Johnson borrowed this himself, from a song recorded earlier in the same year (1937) called "She Squeezed My Lemon" (by Arthur McKay). The song also references Albert King's "Cross-Cut Saw". Thanks to Wikipedia all these facts can be passed on.
Guys remember all the bluesy stuff is a mixture of many blues songs lyrics morphed into Robert Plant’s style. This is taken from I wanna see Muddy Waters killing floor. Jimi Hendrix does a real good version of this as well if you can find that I think it’s on the BBC sessions his version is a little bit faster. But a lot of these lyrics plant is paying tribute to his blues heroes. The song how many more times is a more for five different blues lyrics songs all mixed into one. And then intertwined with his own lyrics. I recommend how many more times first listen to the album version which is on Led Zeppelin one last song. And then listen to the live version from the 1970 Royal Albert Hall concert. 20 minutes of pure musical genius.I highly recommend.
Just the most awesome sound!
Make me laugh out loud! Thanks, that was fun!
Does my heart good to see young people, especially young black people expanding their music horizons embracing the great music I had the privilege of growing up with, especially seeing great bands like this live. I was considered by some to be out there at the time, but fortunately had a great group of diverse friends in my life to open my vision and ears to all types of great music and artists.Keep it up :)
Love the lemon song, one of my favorite zep songs ,, great rifts on it by Mr page🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗
*riffs
I absolutely love when people discover Led Zeppelin. Their music is timeless. Proof there is a god.
Led zeppelin-how many more times
Always nice to welcome another zep fan into the fold..welcome & nice reaction.
You said that the MOST amazing thing... you caught the whole "imagination" thing. You can be nasty without being vulgar -- this is a masterpiece.
This song is a cover of a Howlin' Wolf song called Killing Floor ( with some extra stuff added)
Loving the Zeppelin
People really sleep on John Paul Jones due the other giants in the band, but he really held down the bottom on this song.
This song is pure perfection!!!
Damn, that bass line! Funky or what!
I think you'll love "In My Time of Dying" also.
Being 58 years old my perspective looking back is Yes, Pink Floyd, Led Zeppelin, and, Steely Dan, are my four Top Tier artists which represent the pinnacle of musicianship for their genre.
IMO, below them are many bands, right at that level, The Who, Rush, Lynerd Skynerd, and dozens more right at the top tier level, the late 60' through the mid 80's produces a Lot of music.
Gotta love them!!
Best Bass Line in History. Best Reaction on RUclips. Peace.
Back then if the lyrics were explicit, the record company wouldn't put it out and it would have been in all the papers. Or, it would have gone underground. Man, times have changed.
Great reaction! This song is ooozing with groove. You should check out 'fool in the rain'
Real poets and metaphor use is a thing of the past but will always be the best compositions that last and last.. 🎼✌️❤️
best Bass and Drums EVER !.....not bad guitar solos either....what a band
... Im gonna leave my "children" down on this "killing " floor 😁😃 = if his seed hits the ground; it will unfortunately never be fertilized ( a nice interpretation) ❤ love U guys == plz react to more Led Zep w/ lyrics in front of U both ..... their Poetry n Stories are one Dimension that would be striking to delve Deep into
the bass is sick the drums are god like the guitar is god like, his vocals are distinct.its just amazing that these guys ended up together
It’s all innuendo’s Plant is the best at that!!
I always listen to this song twice mainly because I have to listen to it once left channel only to hear that ruanchy rhythym guitar .
Word is that John Paul Jones' bass is still smoking a cigarette....
LOL - that's the first time I've ever heard anyone refer to that line as "smooth." 😆
Excellent reaction! Like how you interpret the lyrics.
T, is she old enough to be listening this heat?
😂
Oh wow...idk what to say!!..I got a Zeppelin tattoo that I wear proudly and I love to see more people of color of all races love their music! Especially in these trying times!! God love Robert Johnson!! And God Save Led Zeppelin!!!
Super cool reaction. 👌 love from the uk. 🇬🇧
If you didn't know this lead singer was a blonde-haired white guy from a middle class family in the Midlands in central England, you'd think he was some old black guy from the Mississippi Delta; Robert Plant is THAT good!
I dont think he sounds like an old black guy from Mississippi delta at all. Not saying I don’t like him - I do a lot, but he’s a different type of singer, if we’re generalising.
Nick, I think he was bringing the Robert Johnson lyric from Traveling Riverside Blues to fore - ‘Squeeze My Lemon Baby, Till the Juice Runs Down My Leg’. That Plant was singing the line sung by the black, Mississippi Delta Bluesman Johnson decades earlier...
little boogie you are so cute! Im so glad that you did this song... not many ppl know about this song
TNT Please let your Beautiful Wife react to the song ( Come Again) by the Damn Yankee's you two will be surprised who makes up this Rock band , 4 guys from different band's.Its a great Rock Love Song. Thxs
'squeeze my lemon till the juice runs down my leg' is a metaphorical way of saying what today's songwriters might use more graphic language....however I am not sure that's not pretty damn graphic to start with.
You are a doll. Led Zeppelin is my absolute favorite band. A little smoke really enhances your listening experience.
very nice!!!!! thanks for sharing!!!!
Every man's wife should listen to this song. "get the idea Honey?".
Dynamically Metaphorical...
You have a great smile! Pretty eyes too!
The lyrics are lifted from old blues songs. Led Zeppelin did that often. In this case, they're Howlin' Wolf's "Killing Floor" with the "lemon" lyrics lifted from "Traveling Riverside Blues" by Robert Johnson
Zeppelin's infamous cut n paste methodology with old (and sometimes not-so-old) blues numbers often spilled out a blistering rock heatwave like this - with much of the audience being unaware of where lines and riffs and whole structures were lifted from. But, as Chuck Berry once observed, there ain't nuthin' new under the sun.
I would be interested to see your reaction to The Doors. Personally I was introduced to Led Zeppelin , The Doors, and Pink Floyd all at the same time. It wasn't until late 90s. While in order of respect I would put it Floyd, Zeppelin, Doors. My personal preference is the opposite. The Doors were more fun. Zeppelin is more all around. And Floyd makes you think and is more introspective. Talent I would definitely get the Floyd , but better is a matter of personal preference
It went right there at the end. LIke Every Great Climax does.
'...squeeze my lemon...til the juice runs down my leg...' 😅
Hello. This is one of my fave Zepplin songs. I would like to suggest "Thank You" by them for a couples video (do lyrics for this one, please) & Wedding Bell Blues by Fifth Dimension. Enjoy. Be safe.
Zeppelin should be mandatory listening starting at 12 years old to 18 years old.. or high school really
Straight up blues
Listen to Robert Johnson's, up jumped the devil blues. Then you'll know where we got English based blues
Oh, I was thinking just the same thing. The bluntness now is ultimately boring - there's only so many ways you can say "f--- me". Whereas when you use metaphors like the lemon, it's clever and funny as well as sexual. LOL, almost all of Zep's catalog is a series of clever metaphors about sex. It's woven throughout all of their music.
Serai3 well stolen throughout their music would be closer to the truth...
turnmeondeadman.com/led-zeppelin-plagiarism-the-lemon-song/
Bill Stafford who cares, they’re “stolen” versions are still great if not better than originals
Nathan Brown when Clapton covered crossroads he credited Robert Johnson as did the Stones when they covered Love in Vain. Hendrix never claimed to write Killing Floor or Wild Thing. When the Allman Brothers played Stormy Monday they credit T Bone Walker. Zeppelin on the other hand tried to pass the work of their predecessors as their own. You may not care, but I do and I can’t stand to listen to them anymore. They were millionaires stealing from paupers.
Already mentioned this when your husband reacted to this song. Led Zeppelin was fiddling around in the studio and they recorded this song in one set. Another fun fact: this song is inspired by Howlin' Wolf "Killing Floor" and Albert King's "Cross-cut Saw" but references go even back to 1936 with the song "She Squeezed My Lemon" by Arthur McKay and Roosevelt Sykes and Robert Johnson with his "Traveling Riverside Blues"
If T still has back pain, you need to leave his lemon alone girl, or he will never get better hahaha.
Well...perhaps he needs lemon-aid.
Great song!
This tune is rife with euphemisms of the carnal nature, but it's a stone, cold groove.
And the final line, "I'm gonna leave my children down on this killing floor"... in other words, he don't need no woman, he's going to 'take matters in hand' from now on...
This made MY face red 😂😂😂
A veritable showcase for JPJ on bass
A bass line to die for.
Custard Pie with lyrics, you both will love it
One of my favorite innuendo TNT reactions. A close second is "it's a about the pussy". Inside reference
Oh look everybody I'M watching a video............Isn't it fun. LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL
One of the biggest fans of Led Zeppelin are the girls of Heart, Anne and Nancy Wilson. They're famous for covering them and even performed Stairway To Heaven at the Kennedy center honors for Zeppelin. Anne is quoted as talking about having seen them live and that particular song horrifying her at the time as a 17 year old girl. "What did he just say!!??" lol
We had a CODE in the day... You weren't allowed to be so vulgar in public back then, so we had to make up "coded phrases" to mean the vulgar and horrible things... AND I for one, rather prefer the Code. I like it because you can say what needs said without smashing it out in the obvious method. You don't have to be "outright" nasty to be "nasty"... as it were. ;o)
Mmmm..I like so much the Video's Brown Girl. Salute from SouthernWest Spain 🇪🇸 😉😘
That comes from Robert Johnson's song. Squeeze my lemon.
You two need to listen to bring it on home and communication breakdown led Zeppelin
Get yourself a pair of KEF headphones to listen to this.
Juice means lemon's 🍋
