Apparently this song was a cover and wasn’t an innuendo at all #ScribeScribe lol hey I told y’all I was new to Rock n roll , either way still loved the song and I look forward to learning and listening to more Led Zeppelin
It's ok doll. We all learned it's meaning at one point or another and today was yours.🙂
Your listening to the GREATEST rock blues band ...Ever. Greatest drummer bass player guitarist lead singer. No one comes close. Play old live versions. 69 -73 best stuff
ScribeCash lol.
Zepplin --- stair way to heaven
There biggest song ever
Heh. With Zeppelin, thinking there's an innuendo is always a fair take. "Squeeze my lemon till the juice runs down my leg" earns them that particular side-eye.
The most ass-kicking live band ever! Giving away my age, saw them in 1972 in San Diego. They played for an hour and a half took a 15 minute break, then played for another hour and a half. EPIC!!! There will never be anyone close.
Nobody, and I mean NOBODY, thundered a drum kit like John Bonham!
While set up in the main stairwell of an old mansion, no less!
The best EVER
His drumming was also recorded through several filters which gave it that thundering, powerful echo.
Thomas Taylor - He did that sometimes early in career, but usually played them standard. Neil Peart played them backwards. Bonham was also 6’2 240 pounds of mass smashing those drums so it really didn’t matter.
MrChuckwagon55. Bonham was barely 5'10. Barely.
Post war Britain produced amazing musicians and artists. When these folks were kids on their way to school there were still bombed out buildings in many cities. Young Brits couldn't get enough of anything American, spending time in record shops looking for blues recordings. Going to America was a big dream for youth back then. Bands like Led Zeppelin introduced many Americans to the music of their fellow countrymen.
Seen a few videos of younger people listening to classic rock songs, I just love the looks on their faces and how they groove to the tunes. Us old fuckers had top shelf music in our youth.
::literally the only time Robert Plant isn't singing about sex:: 😆😆
😂 not true
@@juliemanarin4127 I know I know but it's funny. But forreal she had me going, okay if anyone would be using this flood song also as an innuendo it'd be him lol
Funny comment, he did a lot of sexual innuendo- this just isn't one of them.
So true😀
Except he says he’s “going down now” 😂
I grew up with a love for Zeppelin, and now, watching the world change in my 40's I cherish their music more than ever.
Best rock band ever.
Definitely top 5 with probably Sabbath and Pink Floyd in there as well.
I agree. Zeppelin was the best.
Best cover band ever.
after listening 60 plus years of rock I agree with you 100%!
No the rolling stones better then early genesis then the who then the jam
Hear that great drum beat? It was recorded at the bottom of a stairway in a mansion (Headley Grange), with the microphone suspended 2 floor above the drum set. The magnificent musicianship from the mind of the greatest drummer of all time, John Bonham, also known as Hammer of the Gods.
Nobody blames you for thinking the lyrics of a Led Zeppelin song are a sexual metaphor because... well, Zeppelin.
True words, as Jack Black said when he was MC for Zeppelin's introduction to the Kennedy Center , " they sang about making love, they sang about Vikings, they sang about making love to Vikings". As you said, "Zeppelin ", but damn they did it way better than good....
That's induction, spell check got me again, sorry about that, my fault for not proof reading before pressing the arrow
indeed!
No squeezing lemons round 'ere!
It's not a Zep origonal...written by a black artisr.
They are the best! Try Ramble On and The Battle Of Evermore! Please continue to do Zeppelin! Gotta love em!
Battle of Evermore really shows Zep's Celtic vibe!
Oh yes!!
Misty Mountain Hop
The Battle of Evermore...good call Julie.🙂
saw them for the first time in '69 when they toured their debut album at The Rainbow,London and I've been a Zeppelin nutcase ever since.
It’s actually a very old blues song about actual floods 😂
@@rkernell
Doesn't Mother Nature affect people of all shades?
@@CrociatoAzzurro Not in this case. Read about this flood and you will see why...
@ReetaR You really need to read what happened if you are to understand the reason that there is such a distance between white and black people in that area.
@ReetaR You may feel that it is not necessary but most black people would disagree with you...
@ReetaR So only black people can state the fact that whites have done terrible things? I think that your aversion to my statement shows a need to repudiate or ignore the facts of American history. Feeling a little guilty?
I like this girl. She reminds me of the stoners I hung out with in high school, a little headbanger in the making.

Blues rock has never been done so well as Zep did it. Every album is pure gold.
Yep...amazing!
AMEN
You can def hear the blues in many of Zep’s music. I’ve been crazy about them since I was about 6-7. My father may have been a hippie but I’ve been listening to blues and rock since the crib. Apparently a would freak out to Hendrix dancing in my playpen when I was 1
@@nursemarn I've got three natural kids, and all of them heard Zep in the crib. I'm very open minded about music, but there are classics that kids need to hear.
True words have never been spoken, the wrestler, Randy "Macho Man" Savage put it as well as I've ever heard or read, "those guys were just on another level". Yes, they damn sure were..... Like that movie Jack Nicholson was in, "As Good As It Gets"
Another great reaction. Thanks for posting more Zepplien.
You've got magnetic personality for miles...keep rocking....
IF you are a fan of Zeppelin...spell their name right.
that intro hits harder than my father.
This song is actually about a flood. They gave songwriting credits to Memphis Minnie for the original track, and the made it their own rather than an easy copy. The did some great blues covers, check out "I Can't Quit You Babe".
Zep....rock n roll .......
Led Zeppelin broke your levee
The greatest band ever led zeppelin the master's of rock and roll
"When the Levee Breaks" is a country blues song written and first recorded by Kansas Joe McCoy and Memphis Minnie in 1929
zep did it better lol
jOHN bONHAM - The First to bring Power Groove into rock music. Swagger & style in his playing, all about that Groove
This song will be played at my funeral
"I'm Gonna Crawl", the album finisher from their last album together. One of my all-time LZ faves.
One the most sampled drum hooks.....nobody swings like bonham
Led Zep will never be surpassed for the remainder of time.
Love these young ears introduced to classic rock n roll great job
Dirtybird Smith - She wii never ever go back to that Rap (CRAP) again 👍🏽 👍🏽 👍🏽 👍🏽
@@nadanada5698 I think shes seen the light
Dirtybird Smith - i hope so 😊 for such a sweetheart she sure is open minded 😊 and a Beautiful Young Woman 🥰
Leon Anderson - Finally A Brother That Understands ✊🏾
best thing I found during the lock down...
Wanna' stay heavy? "In My Time of Dying" "You Shook Me" "Heartbreaker"
Wanna' get slow? "Gallows Pole" "Going to California" "Thank You"
Wanna' get weird? "Hot Dog" "Hats Off to Roy Harper" "Boogie With Stu"
Just stay in this rabbit hole. You've barely even descended a foot yet.
Miles to go before you sleep.
Loved how you jammed to Levee. It's one of my go to songs when I'm feeling the need to sweat. That beat is relentless. John "Bonzo" Bonham is justifiably considered one of the greatest drummers to ever have lived.
Peace, Love and Rock and Roll
Wanna get sexual? "The Lemon Song", "Trampled Under Foot"
SC, if you are ready to Rock AND Roll (and you said it 3 times, so you can't deny it!) then you have to LISTEN and react to Led Zeppelin's "Rock And Roll" - at least before you climb out of this deep 'Zeppelin rabbit hole...
I always hit the like button before she starts the song (I've heard all these songs about a million times)
Originally performed by Kansas Joe McCoy and Memphis Minnie in 1929.
The song is about the Great Mississippi Flood of 1927.
A huge portion of the delta area was devastated people were rendered homeless and jobless, this resulted in an exodus from the south to places like Chicago in search of work.
I think this is their best song. It's such a wall of brilliantly orchestrated sound. The harmonica steals the show though.
This song was originally written in 1926...Zeppelin gave it Life
"When the levee breaks" -it's all about tha love!
I think Memphis Minnie wrote this song in the 1920’s.
where was she from?
Cockney Red My best guess would be Mississippi, because the floods were in Mississippi. Or maybe Memphis???
@@anitapaulus937 I was being sarcastic and i apologise for that.Memphis it is.
Cockney Red, oh I figured
@@anitapaulus937 1927 floods, impacted delta in MS, AR, and LA all the way down South of New Orleans.
I subscribed 30 seconds in. You are refreshing to watch and made me shoot soda out of my nose at one point, lol.
Mississippi blues in the hands of Gods!
You bobbed your head the whole time...which is exactly what you're supposed to do while listening to this song.
Loved your reaction, Keep reacting to that album like Stairway to heaven.. Bebe I'm gonna leave you
'
Flirting with the top dog ain't the same as doing him. Zeppelin has the best catalog in rock. I highly recommend checking it out.
Like your style in that statement, that's what makes a writer's work something that one looks forward to reading and then doesn't want to put it down.
How Many More Times, You Shook Me and Since I've Been Loving You should be on your Zeppelin reaction to do list!! So happy you are reacting to Zeppelin!! Welcome to the Rabbit Hole!
I just love this Girl...!!!! You truly do Rock ScribeCash...!!!
The original When the Levee Breaks was done in 1929 by Kansas Joe McCoy and Memphis Minnie and it was referring to the 1927 flood of the MIssissippi River.
When the levee breaks is a cover, with Led Zeppelin flair, writen in the 1920'S as a blues song.
The levees did break in the early 1900's during Mississippi flooding... song was written.....this was an interesting and fabulous re- do....=)
Some of the best bottleneck slide ever recorded on the electric guitar, on top of that incredible drumming and harmonica accompaniment...
Your face says it all!!!! Perfection!!!
The HARMONICA is brilliant!
I guess Robert Plant can make a song about a flood sound sexy. Lol! That was cute. Hey, sometimes it seems like that's all he sings about. Good reaction. 🎸🎸🎸🎶🎶
I tell you what "you shook me" is the one you should be listening to its really psychotic and music in the guitar solo is like a big firework
FYI The drumbeat is NOT a natrual echo recorded in some fancy manor hallway with microphones placed up the stairs.
Its a Binson Echorec.
This is a remake of an old blues song written close to 100 years ago about a time when the levees along the Mississippi river broke and left people homeless. Led Zeppelin was HEAVILY influenced by American blues music.
you wanna hear a song of theirs about sexual innuendo react to the Lemon Song!
you definitely won't forget this one
Lemon song also has lyrics taken from old blues song, squeeze my lemon section taken from Robert Johnson
@@rachelbenson4701 OMG mind out of the gutter pls. Robert Johnson once worked at a fresh lemonade bar in Mississippi. That part is about his job only.
Wasn't there, but when Katrina was thrashing Norleans, I couldn't get this song out of my head. As bad as the news had been reporting that the winds and rain were, somehow I knew it was going to get a whole lot worse. And it did.
If you could actually hear the harmonic (too buried in the mix here), it would blow you away. It's some of the best playing ever. Always felt Plant should have used it on more songs. Epic.
Yeah, Bobby and Oz both blow a pretty mean harp. Don't hear either often enough.
Thanks for the react. It was really good. You have a really great quality that may be undefinable. Its easy to like you. You seem genuine and have fun listening to some new shit. Also that intro music is pretty legit. If thats you than keep doing what your doing. Thanks again!!
Your reactions are Fire!!! keep up the good work
The beT is so pwerful, cause it was recorded in the hallway in Headly Grange House. It was 3 stories high, and was only meant to be a practice space.
*beat
You are so pretty…my word
RIP John Bonham, God of thunder.
I saw that sneeze...bless you😊
That face!
Ha haaa, rock on, you Rock chick you!
Thing is, when speaking at the beginning you sound, not like a Rap artist, but a real Rock singer!
"Kashmir and "in the evening".
I love watching younger generations LISTENING to our music from the day. WE WERE VERY LUCKY. We just didn't know it. WERE JUST HAVING THE TIME OF OUR LIVES GOING TO CONCERT AFTER CONCERT. I MISS THOSE DAY'S. And pay attention to the lyrics. SERIOUSLY profits. Sound FAMILIAR. The levy's broke because of the hurricane in new Orleans. CREEPY. This song describes what happened. Freaks me out sometimes. Crazy
This song is very hypnotic.
I like to see young folks finding out about our (70’s kids) music. It ain’t all good but there is a hella lot of good stuff from back in the day.
Kansas Bob and Memphis Minnie wrote this about a natural disaster in the 1920’s. “Prayer won’t help , cryin’ won’t do you no good.”
I would recommend Stairway to Heaven, from the same album. That song is genius! Nice reaction!
Have you done the Lemon Song. It is a song about the many uses and versatility of the Lemon.
If the water level gets too high, the pressure will break through the Levee and the city will flood! Something that happened in southern Louisiana many times. You mentioned it is a sexual innuendo -You are correct!
this is 1 of the rare zep tracks that ISNT innuendo lol.
its a cover of a blues track from the late 20s about the flood that ravaged the area
Reminds me of Katrina.
Definitely one of my favorite Led Zeppelin song. I'm glad you enjoyed it. 😁
Damn you, you're making me like Zep! LOL Two suggestions: "Kashmir" and "Hots on for Nowhere".
Crying won't help ya...praying won't do you no good.......badass song
your so lucky to get to discover all this great music, I have been listening to it since it was new and still love it. Wish I could relive the first time I heard it.
Its an old delta blues track that they re-worked. The drum sound comes from setting the kit up at the base of the 3 story stairwelll....purely by chance - got that perfect reverb sound as a rsulut.
Having said that their compressed os fuck, extra reverb added and a you can the here the chorus processor heavy on on the cymbals. Still magical though very engineered and knew exactly what they were doing
Ready for more Led Zeppelin! Thanks for listening to your viewers!!!
Robert Plant and John Bonham both were talented with the Harmonica I don't know about the studio but, they both play Live. They grew up together so I imagine some hours were wild away playing the Harp.
i LOVE watching you move to the music. i don't have a dancing bone in my body, but it's always fun to watch people who do!
People who are hearing Led Zeppelin for the first time are lucky. Back then the bass could not be heard except in concert. Our speakers and ear phones couldn't handle true bass. they would rattle and vibrate so badly. When the industry figured out good speakers and earphones, many musicians from back then went back into the studios to remaster their tapes and fix that true bass so you could hear it on your car stereo and other speakers. Jimmy Page spent a lot of time remastering all their songs so on the record you could hear true bass. On this particular song, they really wanted to hear the drums louder than they usually could do on a record. They were in a small studio that looked more like a Livingroom in someone's house. They couldn't get the sound right, the drums up, so they crammed John Bonham (the drummer) at the base of the staircase in that room with all his drums. They hung microphones directly over his drums and turned it as loud as they could to capture the exceptional drumming on this particular song. They had to use what they had back then. But now you guys. and us who heard it back then, get to hear the song as it was intended to be heard.
Great to watch someone feel this music - how can it not rock you ?
You rock Lady! Great reaction to a great song by the mighty zep! Pink Floyd suggestion song called Time will blow you away seriously! Keep on Rocking! Thanks. 🎸😎
It's not a sexual innuendo. It's based on songs about the 1927 Mississippi River flood disaster that sent close to a quarter million people (mostly African-Americans) north to Chicago and what passed for safety.
I watched... I enjoyed... Thank you.
One of my favorite Zeppelin song! Great reaction!
2 minutes in and I'm already smitten. Love and peace from Staffordshire, England. ✌️ ❤️
That harmonica is smokin and Bonzo smashing those buckets
Super cool!
Yeahh !! I like this Girl!!!🤘🤘🤘
love the pasion
Great job love it! 🤙
This girl crazy! In a good way!
Don’t apologize for interpreting in your own way. Ever. That’s not how music works. Those people who “corrected” you are in error. Music is for you to interpret personally. That’s why it’s critical. It brings us together as individuals. Be yourself and apologize to no one.
New subscriber here @ScribeCash . I have related this song to my own relationship with my ex wife (14 years)... "If it keeps on rainin', levee's goin' a break". But the song is actually based upon a real historic event... The Great Mississippi Flood from the 1920's... if my memory serves me correctly. I watched most of your Zeppelin videos last night, then before I got into your Pink Floyd reactions tonight, I went back to the beginning of your videos on this channel and watched #4 of your own videos... and I got to say that I was very impressed. You go girl!! Great material! I love 💕 your work! I will share it with my 4 daughters (ages 26, 29 and 32twins). I am a 59 y/o drummer and have played in front of 2000 people, but mostly around 500. I also mix live bands on my own top of the line JBL/QSC system. Could you react to "In My Time of Dying" by Zeppelin? Thank you! 🤘😎 💕
First heard them when I was about 12 and now I'm 58. Definitely the best rock band ever in my opinion!
Factually a cover, but really a reimagining.
Any song on Zeppelin albums 1 through 5 would be great. A reaction to every song would be best but any would do.
Sometimes a levee is just a levee. :-D
(but that Robert Plant though)
@Rudy..He did make things sexual though.
@@christopherbako Are you trying to squeeze my custard pie?!?
Its about massive floods and terrible sorrow! And being uprooted and having to head to the city to survive...It's an old blues tune...
awesome reaction video i love your vibe
