- Ofra Haza - Kashmir
a haunting (must listen till the end !!) cover of Led Zeppelin's Kashmir. made a clip because there is no music video for the song.
This version was previously unreleased on "Queen in Exile", now on Greatest Hits Vol2.

Looking for Led Zep covers tonight, clicked this, stopped looking. This is absolutely amazing! Her voice is out of this world.
I agree! You should check more of her. She had an outstanding voice.
An angelic voice.
Yes Ofra was an unique voice, really amazing I listen to her for the first time in the 90's since then I haven't found a voice like that
I love Led Zeppelin, but nobody can sing desert like a woman coming from desert. RIP Ofra...

a true Fremen
È una cover. Non deve essere uguale all'originale,non avrebbe senso. A me,sinceramente piace tantissimo,mi piace l'atmosfera arabeggiante enfatizzata dalla voce e dalla tecnica di canto di Ofra,che ti cattura per mano e ti porta direttamente dentro al pezzo,,che è un misto tra un sogno,un ricordo,un'illusione; la strumentazione è al minimo,proprio per far risaltare la bellezza della voce. A mio modestissimo parere,è una delle cover più belle ed originali.
she's not from a desert... Dammit people, Israel is not a desert. yes, it HAS a desert, but its mostly green!
Was always a huge fan of hers. Not sure how I missed this.
RIP always. 😢
Truly one of the greatest voices of all time! Along with Edith Piaf, Amalia Rodriguez, Um Khaltoum. Ofra mesmerizes one into a happiest of dream state, even more so than all the others. May she rest in peace.
I'm totaly agree with you, but you forgot the voice of Miriam Makeba. She must ne on that liste
My tears of pain shall wet the Yemenite desert sands a trillion times over.
HEAVENLY SPIRITS, TAKE GREAT CARE OF OFRA....................... shalom to all.
I love the songs of Ofra Haza - she is such a tragic figure, and her songs reflect in many ways her final departure from this world. So tragic.
So very beautiful. When the world lost Ofra, we lost a treasure.
One of the most beautiful voices, ever!
This is definitely the most beautiful version of this song...Ofra's voice has a crystalline clarity...thank goodness we have her voice forever-preserved in her recordings!
Only one word needed to describe this.... "Perfection"
I just can't get over her voice, when she sings you can't help but stop and listen no matter who you are.
Ofra is amazing. And what a beautiful cover she did on this one. Miss her.
I don't understand how anyone can NOT like this.
You and me both
Matt Gehringer It’s great. Too bad the iconic riff is missing
Tone deaf people with 0 brain cells with not like this.
Because people are personally biased towards music they favor and are fondly affectionate towards and not other music they deem less favorably; as with any entertainment categorizing, admired briefly for its instant gratification and creature comfort and not affectionately liked for its soulfully musical talent and imagery.
This women's voice can wake the pharoah's souls up and make them smile with it's beauty.
if u could fall in love with a song then i'm deeply madly in love with this version of kashmir. ofra has a voice that sends souls to heaven 💗❤
I dont know why I'm drawn to middle eastern music. Ofra has captured with her voice what Led Zeppelin has done with their sound in Kashmir. I would love to hear a middle eastern orchestra perform this song with that haunting desert feel, but still keeping in the original beat of Kashmir and sung by Ofra's beautifull voice. I've enjoyed this rendition of Kashmir, thank you Ofra.
You should check out the version of the song by Plant and Page (two of the Zeppelin members) from their "No Quarter" concert. No one can touch Ofra's vocals, of course, but that version mashes up the original version's rock with a lot of cool Middle Eastern instrumental elements, including strings. Check it out!
Mmm Thanks I'll have a look, Robert and Jimmy sure rock, I remember when Led Zep toured Oz in 73 what a buzz.
Ofra recorded two versions of this song. The other version is more instrumental and faithful to the original.
She has a voice of pure silk x
Nuttygirl 44 And honey!
What a very pleasant surprise. Ofra Haza singing LED ZEPPELIN´s "KASHMIR". JUST LOVE THIS!!!!
Why the heck is everyone hating this? She took the song and made it her own! Personally I think she did an amazing job!
this voice is a thing that makes me feels like proud to be a human!
Her version is hauntingly beautiful...
Ladies & Gentlemen:
It really hurts this loss of a diva of a quiet nature. And her nurturing nature to all that lives is magnificent. Crying and crying of course, what else can I do.
Only Ofra could do justice to Led Zeppelin. All the other covers of Kashmir are crap.
Beautiful and Haunting.
Utterly stunning better than the original x
I listened to this ten + plus times today all day and don't regret it ! need more songs like this !
This was absolutely Heaven... thank you for sharing this masterpiece.... Led Zeppelin's Kashmir has taken on an entire new meaning after hearing it when it first came out as a teen and now at 54 sung by this angel ... i had never heard of Ofra til this... Peace ...
The moment i started listening to this, i immediately forgot who originally composed and sang it. And i say that, knowing that Led Zeppelin is one of my all time favorite music acts. Now, i know what this song should sound like, from the very beginning. I am in love... with Ofra Haza.
you are so correct
+nikgml This and Led Zep's versions are perfect.
It's an exceptionally good piece of music isn't it!
No one could blame you ;)
nikgml love is the Cure and the only way
Hauntingly beautiful! God rest her soul...
excellent! merveilleux arrangement.! Cette femme transforme tout en or!
Never thought one perfect lady would ever influence my life. xxxx if life was more like our beautiful Ofra I would be a happy man. She was beautiful x
Her Husband may have messed up but he couldn't live without her and killed himself a year latter.
This version is so different, yet so beautiful
This reminds me of the first time I heard it in a mystic trance. I have loved Ofra since the first time I heard Im Nim' alu. The mix of the two is in an orgasm of mystic memory and sense......I am grateful to be placed in this universe by the one.
This song as sung by Ofra Haza took: power, musical dexterity, aerobic athleticism, incredible skill, stamina. Not the first time that I have describe this lady as an athlete, a magician with a column of air, as much as a phenominal vocalist. I'm only listening to this and it leaves me exhausted. What a marathon !
For the religious: Ofra's place now is seated to
the right of Gabriel.
What a beautiful way to sing this song. Love you Ofra. ❤️
The way she pronounced "Kashmir", beautiful.
Ofra Haza..yeaah!!..me gusta mucho la voz q tiene esta mujer...es sublime
Ofra chai, your beautiful voice is a gift of God.
Welcome to the wonderful musical world of Ofra Haza!
I'm a big Zeppelin fan but this is the best version of Kashmir
#Truth!
Great version I wouldn't say it's not better than zeps just different as the original sounded north African anyway. But each to their own
I never stop missing Ofra. I wonder how anyone could have been this beautiful.
Ofra haza was a very famous israeli singer. She was singing a lot of her songs in hebrew language. I think, that she was very amazing and i love her very much. She died in the year 2000, when she was 43 years old. This song 'kashmir' And its video are also very beautiful.
Ofra, desert, eloquent diva from the poor part of Jerusalam. .Blessings B unto the Yemeni; may they be blessed. Kindly remember, Kashmir is part of us, wherever we R. Remember to pull from the soul, We will miss her. pbuh.
She actually grew up in Tel Aviv, yes a poor part of Tel Aviv.
Temani yehudim seeing you from afar with the light they have from HaShem lifts my soul
My Father GRHS is just that light 🕯️
Ofra Haza is the best. We miss her so much. Beautiful woman, great artistic interpretation. I just discovered her music this year. What a fabulous talent!
This is breathtaking ... Rest in Peace ... She was just unique ... Gorgeous, magnificent ... ❤ forever ...🙏🌹🕊
Liza Peninon true utterly stunning in every way x
Beautiful Yemeni daughter. 🇮🇱
wow wow wow wow wow..*almost fell off the chair* I never heard of this lady before..and now..
what a voice...what a voice...Mezzo..but faultless.
And this version of the Kashmir is so beautiful.
Oh god she did..why these people die so early. What a talent..OH
La mejor voz k he escuchado en mi vida, si pudiera haría un pacto con Dios para que la trajera devuelta😢😢 se la cambio por todos los reguetoneros de este mundo😔
Still the only angelic beautiful voice can sings desert with all this passion in veins RIP angel 🙏🏻
Her voice is calming me , I totally feel relaxed when I listen to her
......that is what I always say when I listen to Ofra singing this song, at the very end, every time - Brilliant !!!
i like the original version. Ofra's version has a diffrent mood to it, when the song starts relatively slowly and increases in intensity.
Ethereal, exotic and haunting - the antithesis of Zep . AMAZING
At first, I was searching for Led Zep's version. For some reason, I can always concentrate better when listening ti Kashmir while writing.
Then, I stumbled upon this version... and I must admit, I do not at all regret it.
At first, during the first few seconds, I was hesitant to listen to the rest and almost left. I am happy to say I stayed.
This is absolutely wonderful! I'm in awe. Such intense feelings come out of it, it brings me on a musical high. The video was also very well made.
what a beautiful voice, she influenced the 80's and 90's in many ways from Eric B and
Rakeem's Paid in Full to features in the RazorMaid remix library... a major loss when she passed, her voice gives me chills....
We wept when we heard that she had passed... such dance floor dreams back in the 80s...
Ofra...
The Queen of Beauty..
This is my song to You..
Written for You..
For the whole World to read..
MY ONE
EYES MORE BEAUTIFUL THAN THE MORNING STAR..
THY NAME
AND FACE..
THE DESERT STILL
WHISPER
THY NAME..
I LOVE THEE...
MY QUEEN
MY LOVE .
Oh my g-d, she covered Led Zeppelin- that's so awesome!!!
Not many can beat her on that voice; it is unbelievable how she manage that full control over her voice....powerful in every tone...
I think the best word to describe this version of the song is "haunting." So beautiful and intense.
As a long-time fan of Led Zeppelin, and music in general, I can honestly appreciate this hauntingly beautiful version of Kashmir by Ofra Haza. Her voice is amazing; and while both versions are different, hers is no less moving; and it evokes thought and feeling, just as the mighty Led Zeppelin's original. God rest this beautiful and talented soul...
Her use of harmony in the third verse is simply amazing!!!!!
this is an incredible piece of music/vocal - without comparing it to anything/anyone else, it stands alone - very moving stuff
Kashmir - Heaven on Earth
Ofra Haza - Angel on Earth
WOW! DAMN! That is FUCKIN INCREDIBLE! I literally started shaking this got so deep! And NO- I am not doing acid. This is such a dark version of this song, but so bright and alive! She brings to it, her beautiful voice and whoever produced and engineered this is VERY talented! That song was a journey that felt like it took an hour.
Marc Russell @ Marc Russell- Except for that it has nothing to do with Rome or its hour of power. It is a reference to Isaiah 60 and 61.... “Who are these [Jews] that go up to the windows like a dove....”. Some of us [Jews] have been doing this for over four decades now... “I’ve been flying....” When the spirit of HaShem causes one to “go up” and that one sees to the other side of the world in a nano second... “the seven eyes on the plumb line certainly help....”
@@wendyrosen3179 What does Kashmir have to do with Judaism?? This is a cover of Led Zeppelin that has nothing to do with Jews or Judaism. Ofra's version is so much better IMO but still the point remains.
Same here. Found it through SOM then read about her on Wikipedia and then came back here to find performances. I am impressed and would like to find more from this amazing chanteuse. I believe her 1997 album may be a good place to start. Thanks for turning us on to this.
Ofra Haza com Música do Led Zeppelin , nada mais perfeito !
first off people need to get over that this is a cover... so what people do covers all the time. She did a great new version of the song. I love it her voice is smoother than chocolate... get over it people she has talent and did a cover song.
Thank you all and take care
It wasn't wasted. She gave us beautiful and fun music while she was alive.
Incredible voice.
Some many have tried and failed when trying to cover Led Zep,however ofra brings life to an already amazing track adding the mystical eatern edge the song deserves
she is an angel now.....i feel her
Only this lady can do a great cover for a great song from a great band
Powerful and dramatic transition for 2 minutes and 15 seconds. As if the wind of the Sahara desert hit the heat. Intersnaya and talented interpretation of the work. The commentary may have been late, but given the immortality of the work of Ofra Haza, it is appropriate.
Came here based on information provided on wikipedia about the song. This is an excellent version, I prefer it to her other version with the music personally.
The band always considered themselves (and least Plant stated) "worldly" so it is fitting that this ladies voice provides her interpretations of this particular song, outstanding.
Magnificent work 👏 ofra haza forever young
while i'm not espousing any conspiracy theories, i just have to comment about how strange (and tragic) it is that so many fine artists depart this world so young; from mozart to cobain, gershwin to hendrix, joplin, morrison, winehouse, et al. at least we can enjoy their accomplishments which they shared. ofra is another tragic loss, alas.
you cant write Joplin before Morrison... she was his fan.
Also Freddie Mercury!
There is another version of this song made by Ofra it's on the "Mata Hari" Single realeased in 1995.
So beautiful voice...
Beautiful,Just Beautiful.Thanks for sharing.
who can say this is not just an incredible interpretation of a great song? i am sure led zeppelin would be honored to have been covered by such a unique voice...and by the way,may her soul rest in peace..love ofra haza
Beautiful cover...R.I.P. beautiful Ofra Hava
My dear friend, you probably didn't notice, but you wrote Hava instead of Haza.
Please don't take it wrong, I don't mean to anger you.🥰🥰🥰
Wish you look in this Corona time.
RIP great voice.......
Another great song from dear Ofra.What ever she sings,she puts all her effort into it.
No one like her. She has a heavenly voice.May we have the joy to hear her in heaven
sa voix est wouaou...! magnifique... c' est une chanson sublimée par une voix sublime...
One thing i have to say, Ofra Haza has a very beautiful voice. Not to mention the song is very good as well.
Maravillosa canción y voz. Ofra es la reina de la música. La mejor ❤
Tellement super. Shalom Ofra...
I always start crying when listening to Ofra Haza.😢
The world misses such talent.
Del mejor grupo que ha existido Led Zeppelin , y esta voz maravillosa hace una gran versión!
Remarkable. Ofra was truly one of the greatest voices of the 20th century. A beautiful woman with a beautiful skill.
This version is so haunting and meditative. Excelent.
You edited and compiled this very well, the images and tempo match the speed and style of the song perfectly. Well done.
At least she sings with the other angels now, eh?
Surprenant.. J'adore 💕 ofra... Robert plant.... Troublante version... Ofra rip.. Tu étais lumineuse
omG !! WHAT A VOICE !! Amazing Kashmiiirrrrr ...
I closed my eyes and saw myself in Kashmir.
Irresistible and enchanting voice.
I shall miss her. I use to switch back and forth between her, Sheila Chandra and Miriam Makeba and felt a citizen of a beautiful world...but that was years ago. Serenity is where you find it.
I cant believe that it has been over 10 years since she passed. I miss you Ofra. Knowing that you are in peace and no longer in pain is such a comfort. I am so glad that you were able to share your voice with the world.
Прошло 24 года уже.ЛЮБЛЮ,ПОМНЮ.
Oh no! Oh NO!!!! I have an addiction! It is to this song! The voice of one beyond the grave haunts me! Too beautiful!
Stunning does not do it justice.....Absolutely Beautiful
When innocence meet evil!!!!
How pure; and how fragile and vulnerable she was because of her innocence and purity....
And an easy prey for a vulture!
Amazing Ofra Haza , amazing Led Zeppelin!
Brilliant Ofra !!! Always Brilliant.
Extraordinario como cantaba!!! UNICA!!! Una voz única!!! Toda una innovadora!!!
