Imagine not ever hearing Stairway to Heaven before.... that's crazy. It's one of the greatest songs ever written.
Makes me feel old!!
Imagine being able to hear the entire Zeppelin catalogue for the 1st time again.
@@merhaba8 welcome to the club! :-)
There are tribes that have never heard a note of music they didn’t play themselves, the entirety of human musical evolution, unheard, unknown.
You missed the very end...
This tune is 50 years old, half a century , think about that for a moment .
It is incredible that it’s still as fantastic a song now as it was back then. An epic classic!
Wow 😯
And it remains, as one of the greatest songs ever, that time cannot erase.
im 56 i think about it all the time lol .my sister got me into led zep in the 70's
We were so lucky to have this music in our youth.
It’s hard to believe, that we didn’t really realize, we were living during the very best Music& the greatest artist! It was a golden age!
Yes we are So Lucky (and appreciative - I have all my faves on my car usb and sing my heart out - even at traffic lights.
These geezers ta😊lk too bloody much.
I'm a boomer. My 16yr old niece says we had the best ever music. So True!!
"If it's good music, it's good music, it don't matter what the genre."
Yes.
No kidding. I will listen to anything from classical to country to rock to heavy metal to anything and everything in between. If it's great, it's great.
There are only 2 types of music...good music and bad music....
Well some genres are better than others and Zepplin is in the all time elite class of rock music.
Yes
Yep, people ask me what my favorite kind of music is, i just say "What ever my ears like."
I just got goosebumps at 68yrs old listening to Led Zep just like I did at 15.❤
That's me
54, same
Same here am 56 Year old ❤
One the biggest, famous songs in the history of rock. Best drummer, guitarist and vocal.
Led Zeppelin is not your normal rock band. They're a mystical band. The music not only touches your mind but your spirit as well.
Absolutely !
They were in touch with something on another level
dude you have to take weeds before listening this music to fly your soul out of you body.😂
@@berting8123 Not me. I take it by your comment that you do.
Sorry but rap listeners have no clue what real music is, but look at reaction when they do, its like they realize they been paying for what it should be called CRAP a beat box and some stupid rhyme is not music or does not take talent as shown by the millions of people who call themselves rappers. Most could not sing doubt any but a handful ever played a instrument and bet most cannot read or write a note of music as all they do is fire up a beat box and spit out rhymes that are senseless but it rhymes so it is rap bahahahahahhahaha
I love how he knows how good this song is and he's dying to tell his mate.
@Jayvee TV please react to Sleeping Giants. Middle Finger. 2 Scottish guys singing in a living room. Unreal. Raw talent.
Yes! 😁
I wanted to be mad, but he stopped exactly where I would have while sharing it.😂
Well yeah ... I mean, my man has 240,000 views on his first reaction to it, of course he's going to show his mate and get a second round on it. My man probably going to do the live version next, show his mama, his grandma, his neighbour, his priest. Keep the views commin'.
Innit? You can tell he’s just wants to tell him this is a banger!
This song is like a soothing gentle rain that turns into a total and complete unstoppable hurricane that will sweep you up and pull you completely in.
As zeppelin as possible you are speaking the language of pink floyd 😂
The stairs turn into an escalator.
Well said Sir!
Poetic ☮️
@@movietimeateds69 lol
After 35 years listening to this song, still gives me the chills when those drums come in
Bonham effect.
Have you all seen Led Zeppelin being honored at the Kennedy Center? Heart sang it with Bonhams son at the drums. Brought a tear to the band mates watching.
YES!
When ever I’m about life some heavy weight I always get to the end of this song. Boosts my strength by 10% every time lol
No one's ever to old to listen to LED ZEPPLIN.
At 76 years old, I still love this band. Thanks for being open to the contributions my generation made to the world of music.
Your generation had the best era of music BY FAR. It makes me so jealous as a 26 year old.
I love when reactors introduce friends and family to older music they've recently discovered themselves. Spreading the joy.
It's a good feeling when you get to share music
@@smokeyjoe7251 That's why I make sure I share all eras of music and film with generations that followed me. Just as my mother, grandma and Great-grandma shared it with me.
Music is the key to bringing this messed up world together. With so many emotions conveyed through sound its hard for me to think that all of our short comings cant be fixed with music.
Ditto
@@davidyeo8731 I once dreamed we had national and global jukeboxes.
" music informs temperament "
9:44 when the solo start, he smiled, i smile, you smiled and everybody smiled, that's the greatest solo of rock history
Yep
not the best but def one of the greatest solos

When a gypsy, a wizard, a prodigy and a demigod enters the studio... this is what comes out. A time-defying classic. Pure gold.
Podrías explicarme quién es quien ?
@@miguelpavon4842 Robert Plant, Jimmy Page, John Paul Jones and John Bonham 🤘😊
sa
They certainly tapped into something, deep inside themselves. Something we all possess.
The best description of this heavenly band!🎉🎉🎉
Robert Plant the singer lives about 5 miles from where I live in the Uk. He is a Wolverhampton Wanderers football fan and I had the privilege to sit by him with his son. He is an humble guy and very polite 🇬🇧
Next time ya see him .. Tell him he is still inspiring the younger generations... I see many reaction channels fall in love him him and Led Zeppelin even now ...
@@CrashCourseFarm I certainly will do that for you. 🧡🖤
You lucky man...does he cheer with a lot of heart and feeling, a bit of style ?
His concerts were great. Even other bands after zeppelin. Love to listen to him.
Wow that’s awesome,you related to Geezer.lol
“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”...words to live by...
💯
Ironically, this line is one that conservative Christians point to as an example of the satanic influences in this song. According to them, the bible says there is only one way to god and heaven.
@@BDogg2023 I see it more as a virtuous path or an evil path...I’m more of a live and let live person...If they want to believe that, more power to them. I only have issues with violent, supremacist religions...
@@bob5074 Christianity is an inherently violent, supremacist religion. They have no tolerance or interest in your interpretation, but will gladly write laws to restrict your life. As a child, I was forced to sit through an entire sermon on the multitude of supposed satanic references in this song. Btw, “There’s still time to change the road you’re on” 100% sounds like “here’s to my sweet satan” when played backwards.
@@BDogg2023 you must be talking about Christianity before the New Testament...I’m not religious btw...Christians generally turn the other cheek, although all religions have their zealots...I was talking about Islam. Islam won’t change because their book is the final word of god and they can’t have a New Testament. Christians definitely try to get others to join their religion, but Muslims do that by the sword...you should maybe not be mad at the sermon, but mad at the person that made you sit through it.
“It’s gonna pick up, right?” 😂 It sure does.
It makes me wonder
In all fairness, it does take a bit.
It picks up twice. LOL. Three songs in one.
Page's plan was for this song to build slowly, reaching a magical hard rock crescendo. He succeeded beyond our wildest dreams. This is the most requested song in rock history.
it Ständ alöän -.-
"I love his voice."
Of course you do. He's one of the greatest singers in rock-'n'-roll history.
MUSIC history
@@aryanyenni9058 yes!
That title belongs to Freddie Mercury, hands down.
@@nordicgaming2572Axl Rose has entered the conversation.
Legend👊🔥🔥🔥
I love the guy who runs this channel. He is enthusiastic, kind, and respectful. And he is openminded. These are all things we need more of. And of course, it is always a kick to see other people discovering things that you have loved yourself for a very long time.
Agree! He is a very well balanced young man. He's one of the safe people.
@@jenwendy7 Wtf do you mean "safe" people...?
We remember simultaneously with their discovery, and we are reminded of ourselves the day we had embraced this music when it was new to us. We are living in that moment of discovery together for one brief shining moment in time.
@@cheripetty1805 What did the person above me mean by "he's one of the safe ones"...?
@@jsmithers. I have no idea.
Maybe he meant to say "sane" people?
When Led Zepplin recorded “Stairway to Heaven,” they did it in one take.
Almost
On a 4 track
@@dcahill121 hi, how you know that, is some interview there?
They did a lot of songs in one take. They feared their songs would lose too much energy if they had to keep redoing songs.
Fayrie Wytch what does that mean
The mighty Led Zeppelin....
The greatest rock and roll song of all time.....
With one of the greatest solos of all time.
I'm 68 yrs old Led is the best. Makes my heart sing know you guys love it
All members of Led Zepplin are masters of their instruments.
Without a doubt! All members of zeppelin are the “GOAT” at what they do.
Welcome to what could possibly be the greatest song ever recorded!
And, like most British Rock Groups/Bands were close friends with Aleister Crowley the occult master of his instrument ... deception.
@@stormatsunup crowley died in 1947
@@billrobertjoe I know. And I don't want to get too deep into this subject but, through his books, other written works, many English Rock Bands were influenced by his theosophy and when Jimmy Page bought Boleskine House Manor in early 1970's, "the hanging" out of English Rock Bands exchanged Crowley's occultism ideas. The link is a list of the Bands Crowley influenced. Some Background:
The Boleskine House is a manor on the south-east side of Loch Ness in the Scottish Highlands. It is notable for having been the home of author and occultist Aleister Crowley, and Led Zeppelin guitarist and producer Jimmy Page.
Crowley became infamous for stories of conducting black magic and various other rituals while residing at the house; one of his pseudonyms was "Lord Boleskine". His lodge keeper, Hugh Gillies, suffered a number of personal tragedies, including the loss of two children. Crowley later claimed that his experiments with black magic had simply got out of hand.

I am so glad that I grew up in a time when music like this was made.
Ah, yes me too. The 70s had the best music.
Wish I could’ve been in that era with y’all. I’m only 31 but I would’ve preferred to have born in the late 40’s early 50’s it just seems like the world was much calmer then. Not to mention the cars. I could only imagine myself getting in a lot of trouble. Much better music than there is now as well. Everything today is all about internet, cell phones, social media; it’s absolutely ridiculous and disgusting. But hey maybe I’m an old soul.
You had a band of your own making music back then! Lol right Steve Miller😂😂
DEFINITELY, ME TOO!!! 💯
Me too🙏💜great 🎶🎵 love Led Zeppelin 💕
About halfway in, I was thinking "Buckle up buddy, you're about to be blown away!"
Exactly what I was thinking.
🤣👍
I love this song !!!!!
You guys HAVE TO WATCH THE LIVE VERSION! Nothing compares. It’s an unforgettable experience.
These guys weren’t just a rock band. They were top studio musicians. Song writers. Composers. Huge fans of the blues.
I didn't know they were Manchester City fans :-)
@@ianwilkinson4602😂😂
And poets.
Lem: I'm waiting for it to pick up.
Me internally: You're going to be waiting for about 8 minutes. lol.
😁😁
😂 it’s a journey
So funny watching you, watching him, like we watched you 😂😂😂
@Luna Raven I'm the one running late today....😁🙏
There’s something great about seeing others enjoy and appreciate something that you do. That’s why these reaction channels are so popular. It brings us together somehow.
You nailed it. We are now getting a second vicarious kick watching JV introduce others to what he has heard. It's also interesting that he has obviously come to love this stuff so much that he thinks he's got to get others to go through the same process of discovery that he went through.
Sweeeeet Caroline, Bah Bah Bah!
It is like reliving the first time you heard it through someone else. I'm sure my dad was like that the first time I heard this.
Led Zeppelin is the greatest rock band of all time. The chemistry of these four will never be equaled. Although this may be one of their best, they have 10 albums of work just as amazing. Truly EPIC.
Yes, it has been played a lot... but it has been played a lot for a reason. One of the greatest rock songs, if not the greatest, of all time.
My Era of music and this is one of my three all time favorites after all these years. This was released in 1971... fifty years ago!
This has been voted by critics as the greatest rock song ever, more than once.
Close to the Edge by Yes is my favourite.
It’s deff Top 5. It’s the best from Led, but you also have Queen, The Who, The Beatles, AC/DC, and the likes of Pink Floyd.
There’s so many bands that have beautiful songs. It’s so hard to narrow it down to which is just the best. Yes in the digital era you can look at the streams and how many likes and dislikes or look at total record sold since release, but it’s more then just that. It’s what the song means to the individual listeners. With each band having such a wide spread fan base across multiple generations it’s makes it nearly impossible in all honesty to say one song is the best.
Now don’t @ me saying I hate this song. That’s is FAR from the truth. This is in my top 25 played, and I binged Skrillex in High School and Broadway come college. Just my two cents.
I'm so glad that was before I was born so the radio didn't kill it for me!
Jayvee, not long ago, you were the student. Now, you are the master.
Keep spreading the gospel that is Led Zeppelin.
Almost an original line....!!
@@delboy7039 Huh?
@@Cosmo-Kramer I think he's referring to the Star Wars line between Vader and Obi-Wan? I think? 🤷♂️😆
@@bryanstarke2931 Ah yes, I think you are right. Half of my vocabulary is movie quotes or derivations thereof, delivered subconsciously at this point, so looking back at my comment I'm not surprised by it. LOL
Jay looks so "wise" as if to say... just wait for it...I know what's coming...
Imagine being a 15 year old guitarist hearing this when it slammed into North America in 1971. The composition and genius of this arrangement stunned us all. A very real time for musical discovery while the Vietnam War ground our souls day after day. It was magic.
Back when music was carefully produced, naturally. Every note perfectly refined.
I don't have to imagine it. I bought this album the day came out. It's hard to describe in words what it was like back then. There was wave after wave of never-before-heard styles of music. They just appeared like magic out of nowhere. It was visceral you could feel it, brand new nothing like it ever before. I said it was difficult to put into words cuz I still haven't done it.
Back in 71 I can still see myself sitting in front of our stereo with headphones on.
I thought this was the most astonishing piece of music. The guitars were the most beautiful I ever heard.
@@robertacolarette1594 I'm down with you. I wish I could find the words to describe what we experienced then. This stuff that had never been created before came pouring out of the radios in the music stores daily, wasn't it fabulous. This music came to us like ether from nowhere. Peace sister.
Wasn't it 1973, at least?
Led Zeppelin, the classic metal band. Stairway to Heaven, the classic metal song.
If you haven't experienced Led Zeppelin before, there's still time to change the road your on!
EDIT....."you're".... (not "your")....sorry English teachers!
When the levee breaks you will have many great songs to listen to.
When mountains crumble to the sea, there will still be Led Zeppelin.
When Led Zeppelin did a reunion concert there were 15 million ticket requests. Still the most requested concert ticket in history.
I had tickets and my boyfriend and I broke up I had the tickets but because I’m not a huge bitch I gave them to him..I wish now I was a bitch and went my damn self…😭😭😭😭
@@NyxandMomLive OMG. You’re an angel. I could NEVER.
I believe this is the concert that had 20,000 tickets available, but 20 million people tried to get tickets.
@@carolinamoraga8351 thank you he told me it was awesome the redeeming part was he took his paraplegic friend and they were given even better seats. My uncle was so pissed off at me for given up those tickets.
more than 20 million actually
This is actually widely considered the greatest classic rock song of all time
It probably is, Stairway, Hotel California, Bohemian Rap and Freebird seemed like the stations played them every other song. How many times you heard on all these songs "turn it up I love this song " for the 459th time.
I doubt these guys didn't already know that.
Not anymore, have you seen the latest Rolling stone magazine 2021? It's sad
@@jseight279 I said widely considered. It doesn’t mean no. 1
It’s the one as a 20 year old that really started it all for me. Top 3 classic. I put it up there with sweet child o mine and separate ways as the true songs that got me into classic rock.
Am I jealous of him listening to this for the first time!!! Led Zeppelin have been in my life for over 50 yrs 🙆♀️❤️🙏
I just love watching the joy on these guys faces as they listen to this song. I felt exactly the same way 40+ years ago when I heard it for the first time. I’m an old white guy but watching these guys get increasingly swept away by the music as the song crescendos made me feel a real connection and kinship with them. I know that’s crazy because we’re probably light years away from each other in just about every category imaginable but as I watched this I felt a real connection with them. I guess it’s the feeling of a shared meaningful experience. Makes me realize how much all of us probably have in common at our core. Thank you for sharing this video I really enjoyed it.
Yes! ❤ Music is a universal language. Even if I couldn't understand the words it would transport me.
mans just ended racism
@@jakobdesrosiers6704 the fucking truth !
Music is the bridge
We need to beam this song into the brains of all southerners, and those in the breadbasket states. Give 'em a break from their country music, for a few minutes.
One of the things I really love about Stairway is that you go through that whole first part of the song without even missing the drums, then they come in and turn the song into practically a whole other genre of music. Just layer after layer, each one taking you a little further along. It's a cliche, but this song really takes you on a journey.
It's my therapy song, in the car, full blast, with or without grandkids in the car. Lol
It's taking you further step by step while being called "STAIRWAY to heaven" 😅
I believe the slow build up is what makes it so great and powerful. As it builds I slowly turn the volume up more
Bang on the halfway mark.
Thats why it is the best song ever.
“It’s gonna pick up, though, right?” 😆😆😆😆
Understatement of the century 😂
When the drums kick in, I get goosebumps.
o boii little did he know
I laughed out loud when he said that lol
Bwahahahahaha 🤣🤣 it picked up just a wee bit
I was blessed to have had two older brothers and I saw LED ZEPPELIN LIVE IN CONCERT! It makes me feel so happy to see someone listening to one of Rock &Rolls Greatest Athems for the first time. I smiled when they smiled it was like going back to 1971 again. Robert Plant, John Bonham, John Paul Jones and Jimmy Page were LED ZEPPELIN! LED ZEPPELIN'S SOUND WAS ALL THEIR OWN IT TOOK YOU PLACES AND MADE YOU FEEL SOMETHING DIFFERENT EACH AND EVERYTIME YOU LISTEN TO ONE OF THEIR SONGS. THESE YOUNG MEN NEED TO LISTEN TO ZEPPELIN'S WHOLE CATALOG LIKE, "BLACK DOG" "WHOLE LOTTA LOVE" ROCK&ROLL"" THE RAIN SONG"" THE OCEAN "ECT... 👏✌️
ENOUGH SAID!!! ✌️
As many times as I have heard "Stairway," it gives me a completely different appreciation watching other music aficionados reacting to it. Glad I found this video.
Me too !!
I enjoyed it immensely, watching two guys get their first taste of it, and really give themselves a chance to dig it. This was super duper entertaining to me, quite fulfilling as well.
⁰0
Yes!! Same here.
Same here!
I am Latino, and never in my life heard of Led Zep, let alone Stairway To Heaven but man, when I heard it in my late 20s.... God Damn!!! Glad to see this generation is discovering and passing out timeless music!
Have you seen videos of Rodrigo y Gabriela doing an acoustic version of Stairway to Heaven? Amazing… went viral and they ended up on Letterman.
@@genny5309I was curious, so I checked out Rodrigo y Gabriela and their cover of Stairway. Didn't think you could do justice to Stairway without the vocals, but I was pleasantly surprised. Good suggestion.
@@kurtloptien185 I’m glad you enjoyed it. Most of their music is original. I’ve seen them 4 times in concert. They’re incredible guitarists.
I’m 64 years old and still love this song. Glad to see these two guys like some Led Zeppelin!
I am 68 I loved this then and love now, robert plant has an amazing voice and he makes you feel the lyrics and i always have a lump in my throat when I hear it.x
Now play Kashmir
Younger people reacting to this song is so sweet. Also, the confidence to wear a kitty on his shirt is all you need to know about how cool these guys are.
My partner has a similar shirt, and the kitty is flipping the bird. ;) I'm not absolutely certain that's also the case with this guy's shirt...but it's my guess. :D
John Bonham is widely considered to be the greatest drummer of all-time
Definetly, along with Neil Peart from Rush.
His son Jason is following in his father's footsteps.
For me it’s Danny Carey from Tool, but Led Zeppelin was my first love.
Lost way to young,His Son Has Followed in his Footsteps/Drum Seat😁
ACCURATE
Jimmy Page , arguably one of the best guitarist ever together with Robert Plant pure legend were Led Zeppelin ROCK LEGENDS
Don't forget bonzo, although he's a bit forgotten in Stairway To Heaven until the last part
Bonzo, heck all 4 were amazing artists... not a flaw in any of there songs imo
He really was one of the greatest composers of the century, too. Think about all the guitar parts he wrote, original stuff like this. He wrote so many guitar riffs and songs that no one can say he ripped off from blues legends. Led Zeppelin I and II were full of blues riffs and lyrics from the blues masters but the rest of their catalog is amazingly original and creative. Legendary.
1. Jimmy Page - One of the best guitarists in Rock history.
2. John Paul Jones - One of the best Bassists in Rock history.
3. John Henry Bonham - One of the best Drummers in Rock history.
4. Robert Plant - One of the best vocalists in Rock history!
1+2+3+4= One of the best bands in Rock history!
I have literally listen to this song hundreds of times and it still gives me chills up my spine everytime I hear it 70s music rock
I absolutely love when people hear something they wouldn't normally listen to and can appreciate it. Ya'all put a smile on my face.
Years ago my wife and I were trying for another child. She called me at work one day and suggested I come home for a "nooner". When I got home she was wearing next to nothing (HELL YEAH !!) and had the radio playing. After a bit of "time" went by, this song came on, and then I shifted gears and drove IT HOME during Page's solo!! FIREWORKS, BABY!!!!
About nine months later we had a beautiful little girl. She's graduating high school this year and still doesn't know why one of the nicknames I call her is "Heaven". My wife just smiles. Hehehehehe.
lol this story
Great story! Lol
Never heard of a more beautiful story than this one. You sir have accomplished something great 🙌🏼
this is too much information 💁♀️
Every high school dance in the 70’s and 80’s ended with this song. Great song to dance to, believe it or not.
It was Knights in white satin round our way.
@@knowlesdental7865 Yes, another amazing piece as well!
My junior prom's theme was Stairway to Heaven. We rocked all night long!
Truth
Wow that's really cool. I went to campground dances in my teens ended with this song. I didn't know it was traditional before that.
Jimmy Page played his famous twin neck guitar on this track. Top neck was a 12 string, lower, a 6 string. Absolute British rock masterpiece and anthem. Loved Zep got the best part of 45 years now.
What’s really cool about this song is how it progresses upwards, at an ever increasing tempo, almost as if the music itself is a stairway to Heaven, the music getting evermore exciting as it escalates to a high and mighty crescendo.
And increasingly layered.
Yep, page intentionally did that for the exact reason u mentioned. :)
You got it
@@jamezkpal2361 As Jimmy intended....
My man!.... " If its good music, its good music, it don't matter." We need more of this in this world we are living in today.
Saw them in 1977 at the Capitol Center in Landover, Maryland. I had a choice for my high school grad present...car or Memorial Day weekend with tickets for 2 shows. Of course I chose the concert!!! I still ended up with a 1970 Pontiac Tempest. Best concert I've ever witnessed! Played for 4 hours and I will never forget one minute of it!!! Thanks Mom and Dad!
Diane! My girl, that is so frickin legendary! I would have made the same choice!!!!!!
Saw That same show at capitol center around 76 or 77. I think the tickets where @ $12.50
Perfect choice ..that experience is Priceless!!! 😁.A car is a dime a dozen
Oh the good times at the Cap Center and RFK. But would almost trade them all in for that 77 Zep show. It was 77 I believe.
Class of '77 - Rock on!
Makes my heart smile to see younger people get into the great music that I grew up with. Keeps it going🤗
So wonderful...my senior class song in '72 and these guys are wild about my all-time favorite, SRV...privileged to have seen him in Austin
The greatest rock song ever written; by the greatest rock band in history, period.
Hotel California is better
Right on brother, Comfortably Numb is a close second. But Stairway in numero uno.
well if youre speaking objectively, thats false. Easily top 3
@@crazyguitarist552 you're obviously smoking something very strong!
I think that Queen has taken the spot for the best song as for the greatest band it has always and will always be Queen
Timeless…. this song brings tears to my eyes and makes my hair stand up on end!! 50 years later it still moves me. Live version at MSG is a masterpiece.
Does anybody remember laughter?
Me too, brother. Every single time.
@Jorge Gonzalez the MSG version is my favourite! Gives me goosebumps, gets me everytime I hear it.
@Jorge Gonzalez timeless indeed…
Me too!!
Seeing the absolute joy on their faces when Jimmy starts to shred is a gift!
Grew up listening to this. Hard to realize how much time has passed that younger people have never heard such an iconic song/band.
There's a reason they are the Mighty Zeppelin. So many classic songs.
So nice to see two beautiful smiles appreciating Zeppelin. I remember getting home from high school after sports practice, going to my room and setting my books down and dropping on my bed as I listened to Zeppelin. It's a great song to unwind to. Take care and be well, guys. Peace.
Bonham on drums was a genius. The band broke up when he died.
Bonham was & will always be a Legend.
R.I.P. Bonham 🤘😔
His son is a great drummer too.
That triple beat he does is unmatched. Best drummer of all time!!!!
I have never made it through this song without a tear or two.
Same. I always feel overwhelmed with emotion whenever I hear this song, doesn’t matter where I am.
It's considered the Best song in the history of Rock if not in music ever.
Heard LA Woman?
This, one by metallica and bohemian rhapsody by queen
Not by everyone, but it is a great tune
@@sondersonics7534 swap one by Metallica with Comfortably Numb by pink floyd then yes
@@exiliate17 I mean, "One" is pretty phenomenal. The best music will always be opinion based not fact anyways:)
This song never ages. And I can't believe he hasn't heard it before.
It's too much to absorb in one hearing.
Led Zeppelin classic rock n roll
Watching Jovaughn introduce his bud to Stairway to Heaven was literally a thrill. I had chills. Like hearing it for the 1st time all over again after 50 years. Tremendous! 😎❤️❤️
Oh my ...me too. Those memories flow back in.
I felt the same way!
The look on the guys face who has heard it before as his friend reacts when Bonham comes in ... and even more so as Page tears into it ... priceless
NOBODY is disappointed by Stairway to Heaven. Led Zeppelin is hard to beat.
I am so glad we grew up to this music, it was a golden time for rock and roll!
The smile that crept across your face when they started jamming was FANTASTIC!
One of the greatest of all time, gives me chills every time. His voice is time less
To see the smile on your faces when Jimmy page begins that oh so famous solo is priceless!
One of the greatest songs ever. Led Zeppelin is one of the most iconic bands in rock history. I can’t remember ever hearing a bad song of theirs, I don’t think it exists. Great reaction, thank you very much.
Us brits had legends led zeppelin,pink floyd,deep purple and queen
Got to hand it to the Brits
Yes and the old American blues artists whom they idolized and inspired the Brits.
Sure do!!
Ai - yes but this is also 50% folk music - our British heritage
@@alrivers2297 absolutely
It's a superb/classic combination of British folk and American rock.
As with most British rock, patience, no rush. everything has a meaning
Okay, true story: I went to high school in the 80's in New Jersey, and EVERY SINGLE high school dance ended with this song. You knew before you even showed up to the dance who you were going to dance with to this song at the end of the night. How you knew the dance was about to end was, this song would come on, and you'd go find that person and dance with them to this song. Whenever I hear this song, I get a strong olfactory memory of what it smelled like to rest my head on the shoulder of my high school boyfriend: what his tee shirt smelled like, what his hair smelled like, what his skin smelled like, the whole thing. I think this tradition had been in place at that school for at least ten years before I got there. UNTIL. Until this one time, some club or sport or whatever sponsored a dance at the high school, and they must have hired a DJ that had never DJ'ed a dance at our school before, because he ended the dance with a completely different song. THE WRONG SONG. So NONE of us knew that the dance was about to end. That song ended, and when another song didn't come on, we all just stood there on the dance floor confused. We figured it was some sort of technical problem with the turntables or something, so we just stood there and waited. And then the DJ was like, "Thanks everybody for coming, I hope you had a great night, blah blah blah," and we went into a state of deep shock. We couldn't believe the dance was over. We just stood three on the floor of the high school gym in the dark, confused, not knowing what to do. We figured it had to be some sort of prank, and if we just waited, he'd play Stairway to Heaven. BUT HE DID NOT. And then THE LIGHTS CAME ON. We were, like, traumatized. We stood there looking around at each other like, WTF IS HAPPENING? Until finally we had to accept our reality, that this dude had violated the most sacred tradition of the the high school dance, and one by one, we slowly walked out, speechless. That's how important this song was to us.
Absolutely...the same thing in the 70's except when Stairway started the girls would SCREAM. I made sure to find that special someone. My olfactory right now is smelling Heaven Sent and the little brunette who I met at a dance and took to 3 proms (hers and mine). I can feel the sway and my heart pounding. No other song did this.
In the 70's it was either Stairway or Nights in White Satin
This story got me.
Same, 80s used to play this all the time!
Graduated in 81 proms always ended with the Romantics what I like about you I would of preferred stairway to heaven.
An absolute classic and produced back when music was far more adventurous. They definitely don't make them like this any more. Awesome.😁👍🎶❤️
People will always make great, adventurous music. Sadly it just doesn't make it into the mainstream like Stairway to Heaven did.
I don't know... check out what Mumford & Sons, Florence and the Machine, Haim, Phoebe Bridget's and a bunch of other artists are putting out.
"Good music is good music, does not matter the genre." The best statement of the year. Thank you for making it. LIKE!
Heart live at the Kennedy center covers this song for Led Zeppelin who are being honored. Very much worth a listen.
One of my favorite live performances ever.
@@rebeccajohnson8769 heart credits zeppelin as being major influences
Heart were magic ❤️
Great performance to, but the fantastic band heart, 2 choirs, an orchestra and jons son on drums to come close to what 4 people done 50 years ago
One of the best covers of all time. John Bonham's son Jason was on drums
Perhaps THE most iconic song in all of rock. If this song doesn't grab you, you probably won't like rock much.
Epic! Plant, Page & dem! Collectively: Rock superstars!
Saying it exactly how it is! Great in every way possible.
Page
Plant, Page, Bonham (vale, Bonzo) and J P Jones....the music of my teens....
It's a masterpiece. The whole song is like a stairway, rising to a crescendo at the end.
"I feel ike there's gonna be a good guitar solo..." lol. Understatement of the year. This is great stuff.
I love watching you guys react to this song!!! I am 73, so I remember the 60's & 70's Led Zeppelin!! Both of our daughters were conceived to this & other Zeppelin songs! ❤❤😂😊
Back when lyrics were poetry, the sound was pure, and you anticipated the next note… miss those days
Yes ..a time when everyone didn't come from the same cookie mold,♥️
@r laze I have notice that sometimes the ads here on RUclips has played some really good music 🎵🎵
Amen.
Did anyone ever really figure out what the hell that song meant. I always felt that the Band leaned heavily into Tolkein esque genre lyrics, for much of their music.
Good music is still being put out all the time, you just have to know where to look
So, who remembers when we sat on the floor with a full-size record album opened on our laps while slowly but surely “weeding” out the stems and seeds?
Lol
Oh yes.
The good old days
Only the dinosaurs 🦕(and me)🙂
“There’s a feeling I get when I look to the West and my spirit it crying for leaving”
This is a reference to dying. Traditionally a person is buried with their head to the West. Check most old cemeteries.
“The voices of those who stand looking” refers to those who have gone on ahead of us looking down.
This song is one of the most spiritual work of lyrics ever written.
I found one of them that was backwards. On the headstone it said "Beyond The Sunset". I had to think that there was an interesting story behind that, but I'll probably never find out. The headstone was where the foot stone would be.
@@shawncaton8777 It’s a tradition that has slowly disappeared. Now cemeteries are about money. They bury them in all different directions. All of them where I live except 1 are head to the west.
@@smartguy8505 I've seen many cemeteries thanks to my morbidly curious grandma. All of the plots were either head to the west or custom plots that had special features. This was the first time I had ever seen a backwards plot. This was also very likely to have been custom due to the inscription. What state are you from in where cemeteries would allow plots to be placed so haphazardly?
@@shawncaton8777 Your Grandma would love me. My Grandkids and myself ride the 4 wheeler all over the county and walk through cemeteries. Count the years. I find them peaceful.
@@smartguy8505 Oh, yep, she would have really enjoyed that. She never really told anybody why she like that stuff, but I think she just didn't have a name for it. She got to be one with her fascination on June 1st.
I bought Led Zeppelin IV when I was 10 years old for this song. I’m 58 and I’ve still got it.
One of the most Iconic songs of our lifetime Jay! Thank you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It’s fabulous isn’t it.
You have watched Ann and Nancy Wilson doing this song at the Kennedy Center honors with the living members watching haven't you?
A number of reactors have done that one. Can't recall whether Jovaughn has or not...
I saw Heart perform this live the summer before the Kennedy Center honors as part of a tour. It was freaking awesome.
Yes perfection perfected. Ann and Nancy are unbelievable
That performance was epic and the look on their faces was priceless. Loved that! Weren't both Jimmy Page and Robert Plant there?
@@joanies6778 Yes, Jimmy Page and Robert Plant were in the balcony at the Kennedy Center performance of Stairway to Heaven but John Paul Jones was also there. He was the one closest to the camera. I'm sure the spirit of Bonham was there as well (if not in the balcony, through his son, Jason's drumming).
It definitely starts off with a touch of the hey nonny nonnies, but it lures you in and then damn it's got you.
and then some!
The drums set the hook.
Led Zeppelin is one of those Iconic Bands that when you hear them that you dont ever forget them, and Stairway to Heaven is a Legendary Zeppelin tune. That album is probably the most sold in this century. I think every song on that album is a hit but Stairway to heaven wiill forever be tied to Zeppelin. Those were the days when Amps , Electric guitar and drums solos were key, and voices with absolutely no autotune straight natural voices. Unique sounds . The days of awesome bands and song ballads.
Absolutely one of the best songs in rock history!
Facts
My music teacher taught this to us back in the 70’s and we had to learn every word
More than anything, seeing youngsters listening and commenting on our old 60s - 70s stuff, is great! The best music experience era.
I totally agree with you
im 22 and this music is more popular than it might seem, just need to find the right people
Loved living in the 1970's.
Disagree about it being "the best music experience" era, but I agree with the rest.
Best? maybe.. produced at a time with less noise on the bandwidth.. lots of amazing musicians making incredible music RIGHT NOW.. but you have to work harder to find them.
