What a class act Robert is for doing this for Andy and patients suffering with cancer. ❤️
@outonthetiles I recently won my battle with stage four prostate cancer wasn’t pretty, but here I am 😊
Great to hear the golden god singing this beautiful melody again and what a fantastic rendition ❤
God bless❤️that can’t be an easy process brother
@@user-ri3gh6yb5k my goodness thank you for those kind words - they mean a lot!
It was hell. Still going through shitty treatments but I am clear
@jablescreed Good on you mate,all the best.
@@doctordogtoffee3832 🙏
So someone offered to donate a huge sum to the Cancer Awareness Trust if Robert would sing Stairway -- and he did. First time in sixteen years. What a class act, and a very heartfelt performance. Beautiful moment.
But we're already aware of cancer

Hi Owen. Michael J Fox has donated huge donates to Finnish Parkinson's Research (which we appreciate here in Finland) and also don't want to brag but cancer treatment here is more than good. And progessing all the time.
Robert rocked in the 70's now he's rocking in his 70's
76 years
3 years of battling same cancer (prostate cancer with metastasis/stage 4). It is extremely uplifting to see someone that has been through the treatment experiences we share and have the strength to be performing so well up on the stage again. You give me hope and inspiration to keep fighting everyday. Thank you Andy Taylor.
Skin one in here ... Stay strong ...
Blessed be ❤
God bless you, brother 🙏

Being a Zep fan for 50 years, I can never tire of this song. And bravo to Robert to accept the fact that he can no longer hit the notes at the end of the song, and so improvised with a beautiful slowed down version. That would have actually sounded good 50 years ago too. Thank you Robert and Andy. Prayers to both for good health.

None of us can hit the notes that we hit q half century ago.
I think the "experience" listening to this song is lesser with that slowed down final... I can be OK with the lack of wind instruments at the beginning, the guitar version is OK, but the final must be like the original one. Jimmy Page's guitar solo was performed admirably by the unknown guitar player, I'm sure that choir lady or background singer lady would've been able to hit those high notes and give the audience and us watching three years later a closer experience to the original version.
Nicely said Rick. My sentiments exactly. Thank you, Robert. Thank you, Andy. I've been listening to you both since you guys started your own solo careers in 80's. Here's to good health.
They could have lowered the note of the song. Anyway. It was excellent.
Robert Plant is bringing back a memory of days that have passed on. He's not 23 anymore. You can't expect it to sound like it did then. He wrote the lyrics. I love this song. God bless you Robert. You are a talent from the 70"s that will always resonate in my heart. ❤
My sentiments exactly! He will always be the best vocalist ever in my lifetime. 💯
Exactly. Too many people expect to hear the record they remember. I'd so much rather hear someone rework the song like this or not be able to hit all the notes but sing live a little differently with conviction than have a track playing or the singer just pointing to the crowd on all the high notes.
He has said it's a young man's song g
He is great 😊
@@Scott__CIt's okay. Pretty soon AI will be able to mimic any singer at their peak in any style and the human element will be mostly gone. Everything will be glossy and perfect, and the masses will be oblivious that they've lost the part of music that really mattered, human authenticity.
I never thought I'd see Robert perform this again, still as powerful as it has ever been. Maybe, even more so now who knows. Still brings a tear to my eye.
What? Are you on drugs? This was terrible and I'm a massive fan of led zep!!
Are you kidding me? You're saying his voice is more powerful in this 2023 video than it ever was in the past? His voice is weak and frail and he is struggling to carry a melody in this video. You are not hearing what is. You are hearing what you want to be.
@@Danimal77 party downer
Total respect for Sir Robert Plant 👍
It never gets old. I get the same goosebumps I got 50 years ago when I was 17. We all climb our own Stairway to Heaven.
Indeed!
Same...🙏💖💖💖👍
His voice is still so distinctive and there is still a beauty in it. I saw Zep in the 70's and remember him singing this then. Such a classic. There will never be another band like them. Love it.
Same feeling love ❤️
No, it never gets old. I get the same goosebumps too!
Robert's a class act who keeps evolving as a musician. It's great to see him still around and still relevant. No plastic surgery and no autotune. Well done, Percy!
He said he wanted NOTHING to do with Page because Zep music was like "dinosaur music...but he does Zep music with other musicians..Plant is a hypocrite. Huge Zep fan here too.
@@markusaurelius777 wow I didn't know that so they don't get along anymore
@@markusaurelius777He’s doing this as a donation to cancer
He's clearly had hair transplant done look at his hair in the early 2000s during darkness darkness era
He’s gotten face lifts and nose jobs he did get surgery
the best rock singer of all time. my tears always come out when I listen to him, my whole life is running out like this, but as you can see and hear, it's not over yet... long live Robert, give us joy for a long time!
Long life to you ❤
@@elisabettabubola4927 Happy New Year for 2024 - from Hungary Laszlo
This song will never get old for me. Hearing Robert sing it one more time at age 75.. in a version that is well suited to his voice range now.. is such a treat! Not to mention that it is for a noble cause.. Bravo!!

#AndyTaylor
#ThanksBand
So great to see Andy not only still with us, but performing!
Agreed!
💯
Love to see him playing ❤
for sure definitely ❤
Love it
Andy Taylor is currently dying from stage 5 prostate cancer and is doing damn we’ll just to be up there playing. Can we have some respect for that and keep the troll comments out of it please? 🙏
Charisma, doesn't matter age, guy has got it!! Whooo Hoooo!!!!
There you have it. After all these years, one of the few guys on earth who wouldn't get thrown out of a music store for performing stairway to heaven.
Considering Andy's fight for his life, the ages involved here and the song is his, they have a right to play it anyway they want. Did you expect it to sound like the record? ❤ Just the fact that they did this is epic🎉
totally agree.....as I myself get older, I can appreciate this sentiment deeply.
I agree .... and I think the last time members of Led Zeppelin and DD were in the same show was at Live Aid in `85, wasn`t it???
@@birgitangermair4483JFK STADIUM. My future wife & I watched Zeps 1/2 reunion at LIVE AID & she goes: John Bonham. I go: JPJ.
You got that right!!
@@birgitangermair4483 Not to be recalled without wincing for either.
Haters just drive me crazy. One guy is dying from cancer and the other is 75. Its a benefit in a little venue. What the hell do you want!! This was awesome!!!
Exactly Robert has the right to perform the song to suit him now . If you just listen to his voice you know that he’s the original singer and not a cover artist.
@louissaraiva2296 From what I read that was the first time he sang that in 16yrs!! I thought it was outstanding!! Some people just like to hate just for the sake of hating.
Shawn - Well said 🙏🏼🤘🏼
This is a very special moment as far as I'm concerned. Robert and Andy being part of this. Go luck Andy in your journey to better health. God bless.
I agree. Who could hate this played well and for a good cause haters are ridiculous!!!!
My favourite song performed by its author precisely on my Birthday. I'll take that as a personal gift. Thank you so many times, Mr. Plant, for making me happy like this. You still have the Golden God in you.
I can't believe I still get to see and hear this epic song again, sung by the amazing Robert Plant, 50 years after I first saw them play it live at Trentham Gardens, absolutely awesome, and still giving me chills All these years later, Robert, Andy, YOU ABSOLUTELY ROCK! 👍❤️
See 50 years later he can still interpret the music his way and it's beautiful every time. Thank you sir Robert. I'm a fan forever
Michael Brown
Rock god I'm blessed 43 yrs later can still kick it out on vocals ye ha
Back in the 83 or 84, I was discovered Led Zep when I saw The Song Remains The Same at a cinema with my mum and became a huge fan. In 2018, I saw Robert play live and I saw it with mum. Mum passed away a couple of weeks ago and on the day I went to visit her in the hospital for the last time, I switched on the radio in the car and they had just started playing this song. I will always think of her now when I hear it.
What great memories to have of your mum , and what a great song to have that deep connection to
Sorry for loss
Big hug ....
There's no way not to get emotional. It was a trip to see the "boys" Plant, Andy and Arte in the fight against cancer. I couldn't hold back the tears. Amazing! Healt! ❤🎶
Thanks for the song and donation for cancer!! Robert Plant is legendary!
Anyone else here just to soak up the sight and sound of Andy performing again?
Amazingly talented guy.....Robert Plant isn't too shabby, either
Nope
Andy still have a good reflex! 🤗
Lol...yeah no. I'm here for Robert! That was a good one though! 😂
Who?
Nope, sorry. I'm here for Plant. Didn't even know who Taylor was 'till I read he was in that supergroup Duran Duran :-)
That little crowd got one hell of a treat. Bravo. 🤩
Thank you, Robert, and best wishes to Andy. I appreciate your doing this for cancer awareness. My daughter is currently mid-way in her treatment for cancer. I love this song. It's a classic that I have loved since the first day it came out.
Legend, he have still his amazing voice
What a treat to see this being played live in 2023!! Something I never thought I'd see Robert Plant do again. And given that Robert Plant wrote it, he can do it any way he wants to. Great job.
For being in his late 70's Robert Plants high range isn't as it used to be. But man he is still kicking ass in his lower range, for almost 80 I'm very impressed
Very good Robert!
Andy 💪🏼
What a class act Robert is
Who the hell is saying this sounds bad? I mean for what it is, it sounds amazing!
Firstly I think it sounds great.... Secondly, considering 12 months ago I (and I'm sure many) thought Andy was losing a losing battle and here he is on stage, playing, singing...Alive and rockin....that in itself is a gift. The treatment behind it is doubly amazing. I so hope we're at the cusp of finally making some serious breakthroughs and changing/saving lives. Every life lost to this point has pushed us to dream of a day when Cancer is a hurdle not a war.
I would not be one to say it sounds bad. Robert Plant sounds great - so awesome to hear him sing this in 2023, but there are a few glaring “wrong turns” taken by instrumentalists. Perhaps they didn’t rehearse this, I don’t know. But I think if I were ever in a band playing with ROBERT PLANT(!!), I would make sure we all knew the road map in order to be playing the same chords. It’s just surprising how loose this is in that regard. But hey, nobody could complain that this was over-rehearsed.
Danielblaise: Thanks for mentioning that. A selfish, spoilt and rude individual posting several nasty comments here about Robert!
I think it sounds great, people have to realize he hadn’t did this song for over 15 years. Just to be hearing it now, is a treat. He could’ve just hummed it and I would’ve been happy with THAT!
A lot of people have no ears for anything other than a very produced pop track.
Nice to hear Robert sing this masterpiece again! 👌🏼
Agree, even if he knows - and we all know - the three guitarists don’t make a half Jimmy Page 😌
@@tizianalancia7679 True! 👍🏼 😂
His voice never cracked once
@@patrickalloyssius9138 Legend!
Miss Jimmy Page 😢
Un nudo en la garganta 😢somos afortunados de escuchar y verlos aún . leyendas vivientes y eternas de todos los tiempos ❤❤❤❤❤
So happy to see Andy play guitar for Robert! We ❤ you Andy ♥️
I first heard Robert sing this live in 1972 and it blew me (and everyone else) away. Hearing it tonight was no different, that song has its own presence and majesty that can't be dimmed by the mere passing of time.
Well said 👏👏👏
Amen!
To imagine that he’s been performing this song for over 50 years… beautiful
Cheers 🥂 to that! Well
said, for sure ⭐️
I can't party like I did back then, either.
Thank you Robert for finally coming to terms with one of the greatest rock songs ever written. Many of us just love this song no matter how many times we’ve heard it. Great performance by all. I hope Mr Taylor continues to fight on for a very long time.
One of?
This bohemian rhapsody and hotel California are my top three
And you can make the case for stairway being number one
me too Andy is fantastic
This is a blessing, it's a gift for all of us, who love Zeppelin with our heart. I watch it while my tears fall happily :)
I love seeing this. I never thought I’d see Plant in a suit though. Times sure change everything.
Thanks for posting!
I guess I can understand the negative comments. If you came expecting something similar from decades ago, you were probably very disappointed. I was interested in how he would interpret the song now, as a more mature man who has seen and experienced more in the ensuing years. I was not disappointed. The song took on a more introspective feel. Also consider this was a live performance at a charity event. The audio was not mixed and cleaned up. I was happy to hear him sing it again after so long.
The way Robert Plant occasionally holds his mic and mic lead is so reminiscent of his younger days performing in the 70’s. You can take the rocker out of rock but you can’t take the rock out of the rocker!
Your not a rocker at 75 like he’s voice it’s gone.
@@alfching2499plain to see ur not a rocker
@@nmstan3619 nor is mr plant anymore he is just a very old looking old man with off course no voice,I didn’t like his voice when he supposedly had one by the way
I noticed that too!! His right hand is always fidgeting. Love it.
Robert Plant is a total class act! I couldn't help but sing along. It is great to see Andy up there playing as well. A lifetime of great memories from both of these gentlemen.
Even now Robert can still produce tones that made this song and Led Zepellin a worldwide icon. Even more, doing it for the benefit of the less fortunate. Well done, and thank you!
I'm not so young myself anymore, but nostalgia is beautiful at any age!
Simply fantastic, no one expects the younger version, any version is a classic
Love you Sir Robert always in my heart!!
Respect to Robert Plant....low profile rock.legend....
This just put such a huge smile on my face. Love to see things like this! We must appreciate our legends while they’re still here. 🙌🏽
absolutely ❤😊
I started smiling but ended crying... what an emotional rendition, thanks Robert
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Robert fucking Plant. Unbelievable my hero six years old in the garage discovering Led Zeppelin 1971. My parents thought I was crazy. They had no idea that album was in there. My dad had over 300 albums in the garage that were given to him he used to help Stuff jukeboxes in the two bars my grandfather owned. And a friend of his across is in a storage unit and ask my dad do you want them absolutely Perry Como Christmas Led Zeppelin 123 and four. the rock band Savoy Brown I think that’s who it is Buffalo Springfield, Vanilla Fudge, black Sabbath, and one of the weirdest albums. I ever listen to you it was a single called hang down your head, Tom Dooley poor boy to die. Oh well I could go in for hours. I love you, Mr. Robert Plant always have I always will. And God bless Andy god bless
OMG!! Love the song! Love this version!! Robert Plant- -You are the man!!
Never been a Zeppelin fan, but this song is the epitome of rock n roll
Amazing, we are honored to have Robert still with us
The 'lead guitarist' is Kenwyn House, formerly of Reef and now in the band Goldray. One of the UKs most underrated guitarists. He kept the guitar to killer riffs with Reef (that subsequent guitarists cant actually emulate unfortunately). With Goldray now he's showing us how technically gifted he is with some mind-blowing solos. He's a hug Zep fan and this probably fulfilled a lifelong dream for him I would guess, hence the emotion
Didn’t Andy tour with Reef as an extra guitarist as well?
In total agreement with this. 2 of my absolute faves with Planty and Kenwyn on one stage!!!!
He is outstanding. Always has been, since Replenish.
@@colinatkinson4952 since before that ;) you shoulda heard him play the final crossroads piece (Vai) flawlessly in 1990!
@@colinatkinson4952 Atkinsons obviously know their guitarists ;)
What an absolute treat.. it had to take something special to bring Percy out to sing this again. And it was ..well done for doing this for such a good cause.. an interesting version and great for watching it was. Hats off to Robert Plant.
Best wishes to Andy...
Wow, such an elegant solution to a part, where Mr. Plant sang the highest notes when he was younger! 👏 One of my most favorite songs in the world (not only of LZ). One of the most beautiful songs ever, in my opinion. 😌
Tears welling up, Thank You, Robert Plant and the Legendary Duran Duran Guitarist, Andy Taylor. This was historical and magic.
Thank you Mr Robert Plant, and Andy Taylor. That was an awesome version.
what a delightful version ❤❤😊😊
This is one of the millions 9f reasons getting old sucks! I grew up with this man, and his band. As hard as they try, you certainly give any aging artist latitude. But, it makes me realize how blessed we were to have him, and his band in their prime! Love you Robert.
Danke Robert für deine Hilfe 😍..du bist ein toller Mann❤
Robert Plant sounds incredible at 75! He's wise enough to know his range has diminished with age and to therefore stay within it.
Great job Robert. He knows how to do it. Keep fighting Andy.
Older,wiser,you still got it Robert.Famtastic!
What an absolute unexpected treat that was from the godfather of rock himself , thankyou 🔥❤
Thank you Robert and all the band members..also to the person and all the people who donated just so we could all be so lucky to hear this masterpiece. 😊❤
Wait....two of my three FAVORITE bands represented on stage together???? I'm IN HEAVEN!!! This...THIS...is a Perfect Day moment. Led Zeppelin!!!!! Duran Duran!!!! Robert Plant!!!!!! Andy Taylor!!!!
Guy Pratt on bass. He played for Pink Floyd in their later years. Three great bands represented.
@stephenmosgrove6559 wondering, who is your third favorite band?
@@traceyleeherrera5247 Pink Floyd
I have the same exact reaction. Very moving. Especially for the cause.
The Beatles
This man is a very rare treasure, a legend in his own time ❤
Well done Robert! This is an old saying... The gift that keeps on giving, and giving, and giving... Thank you for so much and much more to come. Much love.
So Happy to see Andy looking good, smiling and enjoying himself 🤘😎
I’m 57 and I’ve always loved this song, even to this day I still enjoy hearing it. I really enjoyed that, what a living legend Robert is.
Juss so great as always. He will always be the best of Rock music! He's so generous as ever helping in needs. 🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶
Brilliant Robert. And best wishes Andy❤
IMHO Led Zeppelin is the best band in history. They were just on another level. Amazing musicians. Great to see Robert with Duran Duran's Andy performing this fantastic timeless song.
Great to see AndyT looking well
And playing let's hope he gets back with the boys for a full album
Maybe the missing album Reportage
🙏🙏🙏
Please reportage ❤❤
I just checked with the committee. Its unanimous. This rendition is approved. Proceed to turn up the volume and enjoy.
Marrakech still love you Mr Robert. 💚💛❤
Saw Led Zeppelin live in 1969 just prior to the release of their 2nd album. It was a concert I will never forget. They were in their top form and every note played and every octave reached was perfection. What a great memory!!
I am so jealous of you😂
Very,very,very tasteful!!!!! Robert doesn't like to do Led Zeppelin songs that often. I'm glad that he did this one, and I'm glad that he did it with Andy!!!! He is a class act!!!! He still sings like an angel!!!! I wish Andy the best and hope he makes it through this!!!
This is the one he hates performing the most I’m pretty certain
He does Zeppelin songs on every tour.
@@obiwan5999 Not Stairway to Heaven.
The last tour he did as a solo artist half his set is Zeppelin songs. He just doesn’t like this one.
@@jeffbair9069 Read much? You said Plant "doesn't like to do Led Zeppelin songs that often." I said he does Zeppelin every tour. Never said he did Stairway to heaven.
Me da mucha nostalgia ver a estos grandes maestros en sus ultimas
Best Rock- Song ever!
Thanks Jimmy, Robert, Jonsey and BONZOOO! ❤
Robert Plant has been my favorite singer since my uncle gave me his entire Zeppelin album collection when i was a young teenager in the early eighties.
Bravo my Rock God!
So wonderful to see Robert Plant on staging, he sounds wonderful! Hope he considers treating fans to these type of performances more often. Would be a real special treat if he made an appearance with Jimmy, JPJ, and Jason.
Yes!!! Robert love you and Andy beautiful stuff.... 💚
The Spirit engraved into this song is imperishable. Beautiful, tear-jerking performance. Thank you Led Zeppelin
Brilliant! A West Midlands extraveganza! In my view two of the best things to come out of this area: Led Zeppelin and Duran Duran. Thank you!!
The comedown after the solo was like.... A closing act. A twilight, a curtain call.... Gave me goosebumps. The transition of what was into what is now all those years later 🫶✌️
gold is gold anytime anywhere even after a million years❤
Classic rock song. Shivers Love this.
over 50 years ..this song touches me still
Brilliant of Robert Plant to emphasize the lyric at the end. Brought tears to my eyes...
Wow, that was so amazing to hear! 🙂 Robert sounded really good and huge props to the lead guitar player for nailing Page's guitar solo and not winging it!
That's Kenwyn House, ex Reef lead guitarist; now Goldray.
Wow God bless Andy Taylor love love you. Thank you Robert Plant. 🙏
Each musician on that stage has a memory forever cemented in their minds, not only are they performing with one of the greatest singers in rock history which is an incredible honor for them. But to perform one of the greatest rock songs, and most likely the last time Plant will ever perform it. What a memory to have, and would look good on your resume.
I would hope it's not the last time he will perform it.
I think Page, Plant, and Jones could write a great acoustic album together never say never! Great rendition of stairway 😃
Still one of my favorite songs. Regardless of age, Robert Plant still evokes the same feelings out of me that I had the first time I heard this song so many years ago.
My favourite song for a very long time. Cannot get tired listening to it. Even at this age, Robert is killing it! Bravo.
this is perfect❤
素晴らしい。
ロバートの声は美しい。
彼の良さを引き出す最高の演奏だった。
I lost my mom september 4th last month to cancer
