I just watch a father with his 3 kids do a fool in the rain and it was pretty good If you wanna see it "Colt Clark and the quarantine kids" "A fool in the rain" You won't be sorry
This song was never performed live because the group didn't think the sound came off well. The piano was quite necessary in the song, but with John Paul Jones on piano there could be no bass, and the bass is very important in this one. There is also a twelve-string line at one point in the song and the guitar solo that has to be pulled off. The middle section was another issue.
+Stephanie Broadwater That's really interesting. But I'd think finding a bass and twelve string musicians would be fairly easy. Jimi Hendrix, for example, had Dave Mason play twelve string for All Along the Watchtower. But then again that was studio. Hendrix performed this song live without Mason. Hendrix was a force of nature, to quote Jack Bruce. Thanks for your information.
I’m fairly sure that to play LZ songs you need every instrument twice to get it right if you’re not the originals... evolving/changing tact, speed... not to mention the solos etc
Grand statement. It's very true, and it's not even really close. Their diversity is why. To have a song like this, that sounds like nothing else, and then turn around and have songs like Custard Pie or In my time of Dying or Tea for One. There's so many. Some bands put out the same sound. Every album. Not these guys.
I still miss him. Remember getting out of a morning shower to learn he was gone. Adopted a shelter dog during covid lockdown. He beat his tail on the back seat all the way home. He is called..... Bonzo.
3:44 His best studio lead of all time, IMO. From the offbeat, unexpected moment he starts it off to the melodic way he wonderfully fits in rapid fire and beautifully pieced together notes into Jones's rhythmic piano playing and Bonham's samba style drumming; then ends it at just the perfect moment - a brilliantly arranged (and produced) song by James Patrick Page.
@@colinbrown3314 You are an idiot to come on here and make a statement like that. You dont know Led Zeppelin music . I bought the album the first week it came out. The song that Page had little to do with and he is not all that fond of is "All My Love", also on "In Through The Outdoor." Page wrote "Fool in the Rain" with Plant and Jones. Only a fool hearing "Fool In The Rain" can think that the guitarist playing on it doesnt like it.
Another classic Led Zep hybrid type song which this time combines reggae/pop/rock. Has such a fun, positive vibe about which lifts one's spirits with the opening bars. That drum beat of Bonzo's is irresistible.
@@alienduce6755 The middle part is samba, the rest of the song certainly has some "reggae" elements mixed in with a blues shuffle. Emphasis on the third beat with a six over four pattern laid on top and a hi hat on the 2 and 4.
You hit the nail on the head. They played off each other and had a chemistry unmatched by any other band. That's why when Bonham passed away, they decided to simply quit cause they "could not continue as we were." Not only was he the best drummer alive, he could never be replaced because of that chemistry they all had with each other.
Oh, baby Well there's a light in your eye that keeps shining Like a star that can't wait for night I hate to think I been blinded baby Why can't I see you tonight? And the warmth of your smile starts a burning And the thrill of your touch give me fright And I'm shaking so much, really yearning Why don't you show up and make it alright, yeah? It's alright right And if you promised you'd love so completely And you said you would always be true You swore that you never would leave me baby Whatever happened to you? And you thought it was only in movies As you wish all your dreams would come true, hey It ain't the first time believe me baby I'm standing here feeling blue, blue ha! Yes I'm blue Oh, babe Now I will stand in the rain on the corner I watch the people go shuffling downtown Another ten minutes no longer And then I'm turning around, 'round And the clock on the wall's moving slower Oh, my heart it sinks to the ground And the storm that I thought would blow over Clouds the light of the love that I found, found Light of the love that I found Light of the love that I found Oh, that I found Hey, babe, ooh Hand that ticks on the clock Just don't seem to stop When I'm thinking it over Oh, tired of the light I just don't seem to find Have you wait, yeah played Whoa, I see it in my dreams But I just don't seem to be with you, you I gotta get it all, gotta get it all, gotta get it all I've got to get all Ooh now my body is starting to quiver And the palms of my hands getting wet, oh I got no reason to doubt you baby It's all a terrible mess And I'll run in the rain till I'm breathless When I'm breathless I'll run 'til I drop, hey! And the thoughts of a fool's kind of careless I'm just a fool waiting on the wrong block, oh yeah Hey, now, oh, oh, oh Light of the love that I found Light of the love that I found Light of the love that I Light of the love that I found Light of the hey, now light of the hey, now Light of the love that I found Light of the love that I found
I used to say one of my favorite zeppelin songs but it is my favorite song anytime I had rain in my life this song always brings the sun back into my life
oh lord, haven't heard this in years, Saw Zeppelin at flushing meadows, amphitheater, n.y. in 1969. was only 9 yoa, parents took me and older sister. The piano and drums is Caribbean inspired, best Zep song
I'm pretty sure this is my all time favorite song, ever. It's taken a long to be able to declare this, but I think this has got to be it. It has everything you ever want and need in a song and it's poetic, brilliant and beautiful and most of all ThoseDrums
Right? Chills down the spine. What an amazing combination of talent. I mean each in their own individual right are at 1000%, mixed together to create a sound that defies math or anything like it :)
When I first heard this song It was like being struck by a thunderbolt. Lord have mercy, what an incredible production! The guy was on the wrong corner waiting for his girl so the very off key singing reflects that fact!
Most great bands could amalgamate many different musical styles/influences onto one album. Led Zeppelin is the only band capable of doing so onto one track.
Oh how I would love to have been in the studio just watching Bonzo playing this. His drumming just jumps out of LZ tracks and gets in your ears. There are many covers of his work, no doubt some are excellent, but none ever have his swagger and presence. Awesome musician.
Jazz fusion at its best they could turn there hat to any genre and sound superb the greatest Once u have divulge into the heavy rock of Zeppelin you find your self finding these hard to adjust to but once you do you realize they were the greatest at what they did 4 genius together
I had NO clue that this song was by Led Zeppelin! This is such a soft gentle song for them, in contrast to their usual hard rock/metal sound. Of course Stairway To Heaven is also quite soft until the very end.
@@chrismulwee4911 certainly. Others, like the Rain Song, Ten Years Gone, and All of my Love are some of my favorite lighter songs of theirs, not to mention their folk songs like Bron-Y-Aur Stomp, and Black Mountainside!
Sensacional a musica é fantastica dos 3 ou 4 minutos de musica em diante os caras parece que se superam e fazem os instrumentos falarem ...essa é minha impressão.
Thx Led Zep for the THOUSANDs & THOUSANDs of hours i have spent listening to ur music. Long hair, dirt bikes & Led Zep wat a way to grow up in the '70s. Im in my 60s now its 2022 & i still have long f****** hair, a ✌️ dirt bike in the garage & im BLARING🎶 Fool In The Rain!!🎵
OMG, you people who pretend to be connoisseurs and the arbiter of great music are so annoying. Can't even be honest about this trash because.....IT'S LED ZEPPLELIN, DOODE!
The group may not believe it, but this song musically, socially, real world should be a song that is looked to over stairway to heaven. Musically it's a fun, but complicated masterpiece. Plants lyrics paint a picture that everyone deals with with emotions of hope and loss in a relationship. It just sounds fresh everytime I listen. The drums get all the credit, but Jones and page are at their best. There's alot always going on with this track. Most importantly it just sounds wonderful and it works incredibly well. It was a look at what zeppelin may have been for the future. It's a little pop but is definitely led zeppelin. Page and plant should talk about this song more vs why plant hates stairway and page will put out another solo lp. Which I don't think he can play anymore due to age which he'll never admit.
Absolutely the best musical source of freedom and release of religious tyranny on the planet absolutely the best rendition of a song by a beautiful band with outstanding capacity and capability to foresee the near and far To that end without compromise or contempt we know the best in life is never to come to those who think in constraint People wake up
Possibly one of the coolest songs ever recorded.
Bonzo is the genius, who agree with me?
not his original beat in this tune but yes he was unique. Any musician that has a real recognizable sound is rare.
Hell yes.
The greatest!!! In a class all alone!!
@@mariai9549 who is the original?
@@putapets5525 It's the Purdie shuffle.
The drumming is absolutely fantastic.
This song made me aware of Bonham. Before I fully appreciated him he was gone.
I just watch a father with his 3 kids do a fool in the rain and it was pretty good
If you wanna see it
"Colt Clark and the quarantine kids"
"A fool in the rain"
You won't be sorry
Check out this little drummer holding own with this song

When the whistle blows, fucking hang on.
Great shuffle
Out of all the Zeppelin catalog this song is my absolute favorite.... I've only said that 42 times now
Glen, I agree: Fool In Rain is my favorite, also. Another awesome (timeless) song: Hey, Hey, What Can I Do.

JPJ used bass pedals for song he played piano on, and Jimmy had a double necked guitar with a 12 string.
Too bad, because it’s one of the finest drumming songs ever made
There are good bands, and there are great bands; there are exceptional bands, and then there are elite bands.
And then there's Led Zeppelin.
Led Zeppelin set the bar so fucking high.
I get your point but you could’ve just stopped after great bands and then mentioned Zep. Kinda derivative. Edit your comment.
Yes Richard M I happen to agree whole heartedly
@@adamz0037 oh stick it stuffy

This is their best song.
This is a Regae, Jazz, Rock and Roll, rolled into one
Not reggae... Calypso!!!
Reggae?

@@edoardozampetti4601 yeah not reggae and not rock and roll

I BLAST THIS SONG!!!! my favorite Led Zepplin song gives me chills everytime!!! John Bonham... you are amazing!!
Drums ok. Rest of this song sucks. It is notable however for the worst vocals in the history of everything
Same here, still remember the first time I heard to over 30 years ago, gave me instant Goosebumps, love it to this day!

This song is drum heroin lol. You might like deftones cover of "wax and wane".
one of, but the most enjoyable
its literally not
@@nathankettle357 ✌️💉😘
This is one of the hardest beats. But that doesn't make it the hardest songs to play
Regardless of what's going on in this crazy world, this song always puts a smile on my face!...Thanks, Zep!
Totally agreed!!
Me too!
John Bonham was such an incredible drummer. Long live Bonham!!!
He's been dead quite a long time. Great drummer though.
The best rock band of all time

John could've done anything with those drums, and he had a special sound that most drummers still can't capture. I think he was Rock's Best!
He WAS the best.
Do you hear the ghost notes?
He played the drums like a guitar. There is a great CZcams on him and it diagrams what he did that was so different than anyone.
Jimmy Page is so good he can play Rock and Roll and get it to sound exactly like Fool In The Rain
😂😂😂😂 spot on!
@@runninglunatic1208 Huh
Underrated comment
Was thinking the exact same thing.
I still miss him. Remember getting out of a morning shower to learn he was gone. Adopted a shelter dog during covid lockdown. He beat his tail on the back seat all the way home. He is called..... Bonzo.
Jonesy & Bonzo the perfect pairing. Nobody but, nobody could fit Led Zeppelin as a rhythm section like these two friends.
I love this song. Definitely my favorite from this legendary group
Such a timeless unreal story song….”just a fool waiting on the wrong blooooooock”. Been there
It’s a great song for a fool left standing in the rain.
Ask me how I know.
I totally AGREE Long time a go, girl lost in life!!!
Bad ass this number right here I’m so glad I came up in this area of real music Led Zepplin rocks

Not to mention the use of an early octave multiplier effect. Page got all the coolest effects before almost anyone else.

I found it disappointing.
Should've got Santana in for that one.

Bonham was the most gifted self-taught drummer ever. How he did the math on this, I'll never know.
gives a drummer hope!
Passion and unmatched mysicianship
If Bonzo had been born in 17 century,Beethoven would have made a different style
It's basically the Purdie Shuffle.
He had the "IT" factor, plus lots of chemical inspiration.
This music , i believe, is just one of the great reasons why LZ is unique !!!
Another classic Led Zep hybrid type song which this time combines reggae/pop/rock. Has such a fun, positive vibe about which lifts one's spirits with the opening bars. That drum beat of Bonzo's is irresistible.
I wouldn't know because my hands always cover my ears in response to the vocals. Can't get past that.

:4/4 drums, 12/8 piano/guitar, those high hat triplets, groovy swung shuffle bass snare. Such an intense song!!! So complicated!
I love this song , the way jimmy page and John bonham (RIP❤️) play off each other is awesome 🤟🏻

John is straight up playing Jazz Drums in this one! It's amazing!

Why can't I see you tonight?
And the warmth of your smile starts a burning

As you wish all your dreams would come true, hey
It ain't the first time believe me baby
I'm standing here feeling blue, blue ha!
Yes I'm blue
Oh, babe
Now I will stand in the rain on the corner
I watch the people go shuffling downtown
Another ten minutes no longer
And then I'm turning around, 'round
And the clock on the wall's moving slower
Oh, my heart it sinks to the ground
And the storm that I thought would blow over
Clouds the light of the love that I found, found
Light of the love that I found

Hey, babe, ooh
Hand that ticks on the clock
Just don't seem to stop
When I'm thinking it over

Have you wait, yeah played
Whoa, I see it in my dreams
But I just don't seem to be with you, you
I gotta get it all, gotta get it all, gotta get it all
I've got to get all
Ooh now my body is starting to quiver
And the palms of my hands getting wet, oh
I got no reason to doubt you baby
It's all a terrible mess
And I'll run in the rain till I'm breathless
When I'm breathless I'll run 'til I drop, hey!
And the thoughts of a fool's kind of careless
I'm just a fool waiting on the wrong block, oh yeah
Hey, now, oh, oh, oh
Light of the love that I found

I heard he took his snare kit to all his shows that he played.
