as a 70 year old DJ & music Lover, I enjoy young peoples reactions to music I grew up with, this is Led Zeppelin's Debut album, & for me, still their best, so soulful, so bluesy.
Michael, Yeah most of that is courtesy of Jimmy. However, JPJ was kick ass with arrangement as well. Wow how God put Zeppelin together at the right times and places!! All of them are the BEST at what they do!!!!!!!🎶🎸🎤🥁🎼🎹🎙🎵
When you next see a 60 to 70 year old in the street just give a thought, they were probably rockin out to this like you were on Vinyl in 1969! We are all equal when it comes to appreciating music for the soul, irrespective of Age Race or Gender. And don't forget the African American blues pioneers who really influenced this music back in the early 20th century and in the main died destitute and largely forgotten..
Mark Magoo there were some , such ss the stones who bigged up the folks they got it from , ( brian jones introducing howling wolf on tv) , which led to work for the real deal. Point taken though.
I wouldn’t have heard Robert Johnson, Leadbelly, Blind Willie if it weren’t for Led Zeppelin. Come on now. Can you say with a straight face that their music sounds the same? Bob Dylan was a Woody Guthrie listener. Even his lyrics were inspired by Dylan Thomas, the great British poet. Do you enjoy getting Zeppelin fans riled? Yep, it worked on me. 🙄
I like your intelligent analysis of songs, you're really listening intently to the music, its components, the production and you have passion for what you're hearing. Much better than other reactors who hardly react or just say it's great.
I saw Led Zeppelin perform this song at the Rose Palace in Pasadena, Calif. in 1969. I saw the band two more times at Arizona State University during the early 1970s.
Feeling the effects of what Jimmy Page called "light and shade".....the whisper to the thunder. Try Ramble On, Over The Hills And Far Away, and What Is And What Should Never Be.
This is my favorite song of all time ... Back in the day people would just walk away from relationships because they had to hit the road ...both men and women. That is what he was saying. It was time to part ways for a while.
Dynamics baby! The song was written by Anne Bredon in the late 1950's and originally recorded by Joan Baez in 1962. Her version is quite folksy, like a song you might have heard sitting around a camp fire during a coal miner's strike in the 1920's. And while plaintive, her voice doesn't crack with angst the way Plant's does. It should go without saying, but the Led Zeppelin version is souped-up considerably.
Just finished watching it and yeah, I just love how you can totally relax into it and totally get it. You don't miss much and I can tell you're totally tapping into the feeling of it even though it's not a brand new style of music which it really was at the time. Fun.
This reaction is when I made your acquaintance. Your reaction was so much a reflection of my own at first hearing this song. That was a few months after the LP dropped in '69. I was 13 and had heard nothing like it before. Blew me away, especially with the phones on. Watching you released a torrent of memories and I thank you.
Finding new music you connect with is an awesome thing. I'm a white guy, and never used to listen to hip hop, but the first time I heard a Tupac track, I felt like I was hearing a prophet. I remember the purity and power of his voice and lyrics and knew that he could not be denied.
After hearing zeppelin you will never be the same again, the gods of rock unchallenged, never bettered, you will still be listening in a hundred years 😀😀
I'm SO enjoying watching your first experiences of Led Zep! As someone noted somewhere in the comments your enjoyment is making me enjoy Zep like its the first time too. I think we have a convert on our hands.
This song was originally written in the early 60's by Joan Biaz, I've been told that the song is Loosely based on a Soldier that is stationed in A foreign country Falls in Love with a local girl, then gets called away to fight in Vietnam!! Now, he 's Agonizing over having to leave her!! Or , so I've been told!!🎶
It was originally written by Anne Bredon. Baez "rearranged" it and released it without crediting Bredon. Page took Baez' version and credited it as "Tradtional Arr. Page". Eventually, Page's economy of the truth caught up with him and Bredon received back royalties. So, yeah, a great cover version.
I'm enjoying you so much going thru Led Zeppelin. A Band that still ceases to amaze how they could put together so many great different songs and Styles. And YOU my friend are a treat. A young fun Knowledgeable Women making the same faces and head bops I do in Sync!! You all around Rock!! Luv Ya!!!
He had to go off to battle to defend his home, he had to leave her but he didn't want to, he heard his destiny to go to war calling him. He promises to come back after saving his country and they will go walking in the park every single day. Subject matter reminds me of an Irish ballad but with Spanish arrangement.
Original studio is a great start. Live on the other hand gives the song a different flavor. Experience both and you'll see what I mean. I experienced their music from the beginning, and love it even more now. Led Zeppelin forever!!!
Soon to be 59, Watching you Rock out to Zeppelin reminds me of when I was a teen in the 70s Rocking out in my room, air drumming to Zeppelin. Trust me when I say, get some ROBIN TROWER (Bridge of Sighs) in your blood, the whole album is good.
You want some explosive Zep, then try Communication Breakdown. When this came out I was blown away. I played it over and over and over. Had never heard anything like it.
Watching her it feels like i'm hearing it for the first time myself and i'm 72. She listens with a freedom I never had, too much of the British reserve.
You MUST check then live 1969 denmark radio, Bonham and Plant ware 20 years old, Jimi 25 and Paul Jones 26. Check the song "How many more times", it´s long, bot it´s worth. loving your Zeppelin journey, gives me the feeling of i´m listening the song for the first time again.
Hard to believe this album got absolutely panned by rolling stone when it came out, also ,hard to believe this album came out half a century ago, Robert plant & J.B. were only about 20 & making music like that it still blows my mind.
page's studio days let him see how bands were controlled. He was able to finance LZ-1 and nobody controlled them, but everybody in the industry were connected and pissed they did it there way, the critics were told what to say, the dj's were told what to play and their songs weren't 2:30 with a good beat and easy to dance to, which really opened up FM. The money barons never considered how good the music really was, that's why we're still talking about them 50 years later
Yeah, the critics hated Zep because they flat-out refused to play 'the game' like everyone else did...sucking up to the press, commercial promotion, going on TV, making cute little hits that were radio-friendly, being told how to play, what to play, and when to play. Led Zeppelin let the music do all the talking. And it's STILL talking, 50+ yrs later. 👍
My roommate and close friend came back to Buffalo with a tape a guy he know at WBZ Boston, who he met at Yale Art and Music Summer School, for really advanced art students, well, I see now,we had a copy about 3 months before it was released. So, ready, we had a few friends over,and we listened to it over and over one evening,wow, blown away, then word spread and every night,more and more people came over to our two bedroom apt., after a week, we had to turn people away, too much, this was in Buffalo, in case anyone is interested, my 44 cents, brings back mucho memories!
Thanks for pulling the Led out for us again over the weekend. What a lovely way to start my Sunday. 🙌🏼💕 Love your reactions, musical analysis of what you’re hearing musically and your thoughts of each songs meaning. Definitely about a lost love. Reminds me of someone going off to war but believe it’s actually about the band members sacrifice to play music and leaving relationships behind in order to continue as Led Zep. Such fun watching you discover them. 🌞
That was awesome!… Great reaction… Here are some other Led Zeppelin songs to check out. What is and what should never be Black dog Going to California The immigrant song Ramble on When the Levee breaks Thank you The rain song Whole lot of love They were heavily influenced by American blues singers guitarists and songwriters Howlin’ Wolf. Muddy waters. Bo Diddley. BB King. Any of those songs that could make it across the Atlantic Ocean to England. Their main goal was to make it big in America.
Awesome reaction I love how you explained what it’s like emotionally to listen to Led Zeppelin especially songs like that one. And yes with the headphones you hear the different arrangements from here to here you might hear something that’s like above your head but really faint is just amazing how page engineered all the stuff. Simply amazing this song is a cover from Joanne buyers. And if I’m pretty sure that her version is a cover as well. The song is about a man going off to war. It’s not a break up song is not anything of that nature it’s about a man going off to war and expressing how he feels. Awesome reaction you shook me is next, the blues remake and then there’s days are confused the studio version. Which you really should listen to because that live version you have listen to before they were still working through it. Rubber plants voice is amazing
Zeppelin's songs often fall loosely into two categories. Songs about meeting/loving/loosing, women. And songs about myths/legends/fantasy. 'Babe I'm gonna leave you' is one that crosses both themes. Plant would often tie in elements of 'home' being some place he has to go and can't come back from. 'Home' is possibly 'heaven,' so he could be an angel, and she will be there with him one day. It's one interpretation...
I doubt Anne Bredon considers her creation traditional. She is still alive after all. Traditional would be something from, I dunno, the 17th century, not the late 1950s.
Song #3 Album #1 "You Shook Me" You CANNOT skip this song. Mothership be damned!!!! It rolls right into the opening bass line of "Dazed and Confused." I know you did the live version of Dazed but I don't think you've done the studio. A double song reaction would be nice, but PLEASE at least do "You Shook Me" It will melt your face. I promise. Your soul is old and full of rock and roll. Peace
There is a reason they are considered the overall best band of all time. Writing, musicianship, overlapping styles and as you can tell from all of the reactions - they take you on a journey each and every song..from Black Dog to Dazed and Confused to Gallows Poll... All of this during a time when if you wanted a sound on your album you had to play the instrument to get it...
Rhythm guitar on one side and lead guitar on their other and the vocal in the middle.Get a good headphones to Truely experience the full details of the song.Great reaction.😯😯😯😯😯👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼!!!!,!
I love the way you approach things for sure man. I'm nearly 60 and grow up with this stuff and I'm a musician and I can tell you really completely get this stuff. It would be great to hang out with you and play some music sometime, obviously and some other reality, laugh. It would be fun though for sure.
I think if you've never been hit with wanderlust, this song won't ever make sense to you. What's calling him? The road, Sweetheart. The need to break out of everything you've dug yourself into. All the familiarity, even the things you love. The call to be born into the mystic.
reminds me of a dark room lit only by the faint dial of the stereo.... a beer...a buzz.... the volume up....your girl had to study and couldn't come over....you are alone as possible on a campus of 10,000....motionless except for occasional air guitar or drums.....20 in 71
"I can hear it calling me back home" has a dual meaning here...so background, this is a cover of an Anne Bredon song (which Page didnt know when he credited it as "traditional" as did the others that covered it before LZ). The original Bredon meaning is something like trying to escape an abusive relationship and failing. Many people interpret LZs version as a longing to return to addiction, I've got to leave you...I can hear it calling me, but to me that seems wrong (this song was track 2 on their first album, wayyyyy before any of them got into drugs/alcohol) just based on timing. Some think its robert plants desire to chase his music career despite having promised his gf: "if I haven't made it by my 20th birthday (August 20, 1968) I'll quit"...he met jimmy page in late July 1968, their first live show was September 7th, and the album this song appeared on was recorded on September 27th 1968 and released in January 1969...some think this is an ode to his future wife of apology...but hey...it worked out :) it sounds like a love song to me, but he loves two things equally and intensely, misses both, longs for both, but to be with one is to be temporarily without the other... It suits their overall theme that love is often agony (nearly their whole catalogue are love songs btw)
Loved your reaction Scribe......always enjoy seeing music move through a person's soul and you didn't disappoint. I have a new appreciation for this song that I sort of forgotten about, thanks for reminding me what a great song it was and is.
luv what a friend said cause i thought the same thing listening to the mighty zepp quarter... he wasn't that familiar with their oeuvre but still getting into it. he said "my kids can't listen to this. they'll tear the whole house up" too much goin on with them..
There seems to be a bunch of African America CZcams channels dealing with caucasian based classic rock. Listening and rating them , that's all in good. I grew up listening to most music genre. From rock , soul , blues , old school hip hop , metal , and even southern rock. Keep up listening and your opinions on the music.
I’ve heard that song so many times and I listened again with her this time and thought about said Spanish acoustic guitar vibe, must have been done in remastering !
i could be wrong, but I think this song is talking about a man who is being called to war and must leave his woman behind. Many artists of the time had fathers or relatives who served in WW2, especially those from Great Britain.
I thought it was, but he say "I can hear it calling me back home". Could be a man the loves a woman but can't get over the love for his land and people. I relate strongly with that, since ive been leaving away from home for 15 years, and I rather be on my own than jeopardizing my chances to go see my familly every year. Then again, it could be a man leaving a double life and talking to his mistress. I like the soldier theory more, its a sad and strong approach, but can hardly imagine anyone calling war "home", unless he's living far away and there's war at his land, but that sounds a little too intricate. Anyway, the beauty about art is that is subjective, it's all about perspective. No matter the story you make up for it, it's beautiful and intense in your own mind.
War isn't rambling, nor is it home. I don't think war makes sense here. I think it's talking about a man who has "rambling" in his blood; he just doesn't take well to staying in one place. He's with a woman who wants to stay where she is, so he has to choose, and it pulls him apart emotionally. That leads to the schizo lyrics about "I'm gonna leave you" and "I'm never never never gonna leave you". When he says "we're gonna go walking in the park every day" I think he's anticipating settling down with this woman someday in the future, once he's done "rambling". JMO.
Loved your reaction to Zep. I have watched quite a few reactions to Zep and it amazes me how many young black people seem to really get the music. I am asking an honest question--can you explain why that is? I know music transcends everything, but it is puzzling why so many young people are listening when they used to just listen to rap and hip hop. Many whites did not get Zep when I was young ( I was 15 when I first heard them), so I am loving the reactions of today's young people. Cheers
Love your interpretations and how carefully you listen to the music, also your sound is amazing, not so much with some of the others I've heard, sometimes the music just doesn't sound as clear and vibrant.
I’m jealous because you’re getting to hear the greatest rock band in history for the first time. I wish I could hear it for the first time again.
I'm near 60, so I grew up with Led Zeppelin...such a joy to see them being experienced by a new generation of fans!!
Me too , late 50's & couldn't agree more.
i'm 56 and i couldn't agree more whit you buddy
Apparently It was was about a Vietnam vet doing another tour of duty
Correcto mundo this girl gives me the hornnnn
Just turned 69, love them as much as I do Beethoven. Saw them in '70 at Tampa Stadium with 70,000 fellow travelers. Magical.
as a 70 year old DJ & music Lover, I enjoy young peoples reactions to music I grew up with, this is Led Zeppelin's Debut album, & for me, still their best, so soulful, so bluesy.
i think it's called an "eargasm"
you get them a lot with Led Zeppelin
peace (from the UK)
Greetings from Chicago!
@@juliemanarin4127 great place for blues, greetings from Manchester uk
Zeppelin were masters at arrangements and musical instinct.
the masters? I think Pink Floyd have something to say about that
Michael, Yeah most of that is courtesy of Jimmy. However, JPJ was kick ass with arrangement as well. Wow how God put Zeppelin together at the right times and places!! All of them are the BEST at what they do!!!!!!!🎶🎸🎤🥁🎼🎹🎙🎵
@@jagdeepkaul1261 , Pink Floyd ARE definitely extraordinary! They are barely behind Zep, but they ARE. #s1 & 2. 👍🏼🎼🎧🎶🎸
It's so awesome how they come out of soft to hard music so perfectly. nobody does it better
When you next see a 60 to 70 year old in the street just give a thought, they were probably rockin out to this like you were on Vinyl in 1969!
We are all equal when it comes to appreciating music for the soul, irrespective of Age Race or Gender.
And don't forget the African American blues pioneers who really influenced this music back in the early 20th century and in the main died destitute and largely forgotten..
@Mark Magoo 😂 lol, ok boomer.
Mark Magoo there were some , such ss the stones who bigged up the folks they got it from , ( brian jones introducing howling wolf on tv) , which led to work for the real deal.
Point taken though.
I wouldn’t have heard Robert Johnson, Leadbelly, Blind Willie if it weren’t for Led Zeppelin. Come on now. Can you say with a straight face that their music sounds the same? Bob Dylan was a Woody Guthrie listener. Even his lyrics were inspired by Dylan Thomas, the great British poet. Do you enjoy getting Zeppelin fans riled? Yep, it worked on me. 🙄
@@bryanguillen9167 The Jerry Springer generation speaks...
Tuatha DeDanann well said
The intricacies, layers, complexity, lyrics, etc. makes music so satisfying and engages us more completely as human beings.
That is a great analogy of this song. Listening to Led Zeppelin for the first time is like a box of chocolates you never know what your going to get.
I’m 65, love your reaction. I think first time I heard this I was 15 years old (1969) , it’s still relevant today. Good job !
I love seeing the effects of someone being Zeppelined!!
This has been one of my favorite songs since I was probably 14. It's always on my Playlist now. I'm currently 64. And I'm just watched this. 😆
Have you ever heard such a complete band with such excellent musicianship. Even Plant’s voice is a powerful instrument . Pure rock n roll
This song was the one that convinced me to buy an acoustic guitar, it's so damn good...
This is iconic.Shows how they mastered all instruments and vocals.
Good god good Lord led zeppelin they are truly untouchable best band ever
I like your intelligent analysis of songs, you're really listening intently to the music, its components, the production and you have passion for what you're hearing. Much better than other reactors who hardly react or just say it's great.
I 100% agree!!
I saw Led Zeppelin perform this song at the Rose Palace in Pasadena, Calif. in 1969. I saw the band two more times at Arizona State University during the early 1970s.
God Bless You sir you have about 70 .
Feeling the effects of what Jimmy Page called "light and shade".....the whisper to the thunder. Try Ramble On, Over The Hills And Far Away, and What Is And What Should Never Be.
Jimmy is a musical genius! Self taught too!
This is my favorite song of all time ... Back in the day people would just walk away from relationships because they had to hit the road ...both men and women. That is what he was saying. It was time to part ways for a while.

A complete orgasmic explosion of flavors, but in your ears. That's why they call it ear candy. 🎶😎
this was always one of my favorites by them, thanks

Another youngster finally hears the musical magic of Zep.

Ok now we need 3rd song You Shook Me.
After hearing zeppelin you will never be the same again, the gods of rock unchallenged, never bettered, you will still be listening in a hundred years 😀😀
I'm SO enjoying watching your first experiences of Led Zep! As someone noted somewhere in the comments your enjoyment is making me enjoy Zep like its the first time too. I think we have a convert on our hands.

51 year old masterpiece
Led zep is a masterpiece
Try 53 years
Damn awesome song!
Basically, just a few lyrics. What they did with it is timeless and untouchable.

I'm 71 years old and I saw Led Zeppelin at the Rainbow Roller Rink in Chicago, it was called kinetic playground on weekends!
You are so much fun to watch, thank you for being so willing to listen to new (for you) music and to share your discoveries with us. 🥰✌️
"What Is and What Should Never Be" catch the wind see us spin, sail away leave today....
Yes!
Way up high, in the sky
I appreciate your commitment!
@@Drewitall54 and the wind won't blow.
The song after this one on their first album, "You Shook Me", is one of the best blues number ever recorded, in my opinion. Another great reaction!
Led Zeppelin -- You Shook Me
I love seeing people listen to music that's been around longer than they have been alive.
He had to go off to battle to defend his home, he had to leave her but he didn't want to, he heard his destiny to go to war calling him. He promises to come back after saving his country and they will go walking in the park every single day. Subject matter reminds me of an Irish ballad but with Spanish arrangement.
Very intricate, an incredibly intense song!
This music just transcends time
Love seeing young people experiencing this music for the first time. Your awesome kid.
Music from the 60s and 70s like Zep, Floyd, etc make today’s music sound so computerized and auto tuned. Love your reactions! 😍
Michael Charlesworth Today’s music is fake shit just like CNN
T C agree about today’s music...but pleas don’t tell me you believe FOX news...
@@billpo LOL. Just look up "CNN caught faking" on any honest search engine and enjoy. :-)
billpo Fox News is far more accurate than CNN or MSNBC.

You want some explosive Zep, then try Communication Breakdown. When this came out I was blown away. I played it over and over and over. Had never heard anything like it.
the live version is one of my favorites--I love Roberts "I don't want to communicate"
Yes
Watching her it feels like i'm hearing it for the first time myself and i'm 72. She listens with a freedom I never had, too much of the British reserve.
I feel the same way when I hear this song. I just get my head rocking!
Good song. Can't understand who could not like it. This band was the best
This is the song which really shows off Robert Plant's own voice to full effect...
Starburst explosion in your ears. Wow!!!!
In my opinion THIS IS THE GREATEST Rock and Roll album.

He has to leave because the call of his rambling ways is stronger than the draw of where he might want to stay...

They were heavily influenced by American blues singers guitarists and songwriters
Howlin’ Wolf. Muddy waters. Bo Diddley. BB King. Any of those songs that could
make it across the Atlantic Ocean to England. Their main goal was to make it big in America.
Loved watching your reaction. You didn’t keep stopping to comment because it got a hold of your soul. 🤘
listen to misty mountain hop, ramble on, dazed and confused... the list is endless
Awesome reaction I love how you explained what it’s like emotionally to listen to Led Zeppelin especially songs like that one. And yes with the headphones you hear the different arrangements from here to here you might hear something that’s like above your head but really faint is just amazing how page engineered all the stuff.

It's one interpretation...
this was what I listened to falling asleep in high school with head phones so my parents didn't get mad and you make it new again.
This is a traditional song, given the Zeppelin treatment with this great arrangement!
I doubt Anne Bredon considers her creation traditional. She is still alive after all. Traditional would be something from, I dunno, the 17th century, not the late 1950s.
Song #3 Album #1 "You Shook Me"
You CANNOT skip this song. Mothership be damned!!!! It rolls right into the opening bass line of "Dazed and Confused." I know you did the live version of Dazed but I don't think you've done the studio. A double song reaction would be nice, but PLEASE at least do "You Shook Me" It will melt your face. I promise.
Your soul is old and full of rock and roll.
Peace
Nooooooo, we can't have Scribecash's beautiful face melted!!!... but she should still react to it ; )
Dead right.... First zep track I've ever heard.... Was addicted from that moment on 👍 🇬🇧
SOUL comes in ALL COLORS!! We are HIS "Creations."
You had a Zeppelin eargasm! Yea, it's a thing. Loved your reaction! Been listening to them since I was 10. I'm old enough to be your...uncle. LMAO!
There is a reason they are considered the overall best band of all time. Writing, musicianship, overlapping styles and as you can tell from all of the reactions - they take you on a journey each and every song..from Black Dog to Dazed and Confused to Gallows Poll... All of this during a time when if you wanted a sound on your album you had to play the instrument to get it...
Rhythm guitar on one side and lead guitar on their other and the vocal in the middle.Get a good headphones to Truely experience the full details of the song.Great reaction.😯😯😯😯😯👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼!!!!,!
Back in the day when the artists actually wrote and played there own music. Those were the days for sure. Great memories for sure.
I love the way you approach things for sure man. I'm nearly 60 and grow up with this stuff and I'm a musician and I can tell you really completely get this stuff. It would be great to hang out with you and play some music sometime, obviously and some other reality, laugh. It would be fun though for sure.
I keep thinking as much as they toured as a band naturally this would apply to his life
I think if you've never been hit with wanderlust, this song won't ever make sense to you.
What's calling him? The road, Sweetheart. The need to break out of everything you've dug yourself into. All the familiarity, even the things you love. The call to be born into the mystic.
reminds me of a dark room lit only by the faint dial of the stereo.... a beer...a buzz.... the volume up....your girl had to study and couldn't come over....you are alone as possible on a campus of 10,000....motionless except for occasional air guitar or drums.....20 in 71
"I can hear it calling me back home" has a dual meaning here...so background, this is a cover of an Anne Bredon song (which Page didnt know when he credited it as "traditional" as did the others that covered it before LZ). The original Bredon meaning is something like trying to escape an abusive relationship and failing. Many people interpret LZs version as a longing to return to addiction, I've got to leave you...I can hear it calling me, but to me that seems wrong (this song was track 2 on their first album, wayyyyy before any of them got into drugs/alcohol) just based on timing. Some think its robert plants desire to chase his music career despite having promised his gf: "if I haven't made it by my 20th birthday (August 20, 1968) I'll quit"...he met jimmy page in late July 1968, their first live show was September 7th, and the album this song appeared on was recorded on September 27th 1968 and released in January 1969...some think this is an ode to his future wife of apology...but hey...it worked out :)
it sounds like a love song to me, but he loves two things equally and intensely, misses both, longs for both, but to be with one is to be temporarily without the other... It suits their overall theme that love is often agony (nearly their whole catalogue are love songs btw)
Loved your reaction Scribe......always enjoy seeing music move through a person's soul and you didn't disappoint. I have a new appreciation for this song that I sort of forgotten about, thanks for reminding me what a great song it was and is.
This is music of the highest quality. And I woulda been more than happy to ring your bell 30 years ago sweetness but I'm way past my due date.
Starburst explosion! Wonderful analogy!
luv what a friend said cause i thought the same thing listening to the mighty zepp quarter... he wasn't that familiar with their oeuvre but still getting into it. he said "my kids can't listen to this. they'll tear the whole house up" too much goin on with them..
There seems to be a bunch of African America CZcams channels dealing with caucasian based classic rock. Listening and rating them , that's all in good. I grew up listening to most music genre. From rock , soul , blues , old school hip hop , metal , and even southern rock. Keep up listening and your opinions on the music.
I also seen some caucasian CZcams channels the rate classic rock and other music. Who started this trend , anyone know?
@@dragonsong1023 it is possible lockdown has caused people (in general) to listen to music more.
You MUST Watch the "LIVE" versions for this song and "How Many More Times" Mind-Blowing!! Robert Plant was so young (19yrs. old).
The album stuff is a load cleaner than the RAW live stuff but that's the wonder of LED ZEPPELIN WOMAN!
I’ve heard that song so many times and I listened again with her this time and thought about said Spanish acoustic guitar vibe, must have been done in remastering !
Beautiful playing for sure
i could be wrong, but I think this song is talking about a man who is being called to war and must leave his woman behind. Many artists of the time had fathers or relatives who served in WW2, especially those from Great Britain.
That makes sense. In my imagination I always thought he was singing about going on the road for a tour.
I thought it was, but he say "I can hear it calling me back home". Could be a man the loves a woman but can't get over the love for his land and people. I relate strongly with that, since ive been leaving away from home for 15 years, and I rather be on my own than jeopardizing my chances to go see my familly every year.
Then again, it could be a man leaving a double life and talking to his mistress.
I like the soldier theory more, its a sad and strong approach, but can hardly imagine anyone calling war "home", unless he's living far away and there's war at his land, but that sounds a little too intricate.
Anyway, the beauty about art is that is subjective, it's all about perspective. No matter the story you make up for it, it's beautiful and intense in your own mind.
He's got ramble.. meaning he's got to hit the road, go away from this place. It's calling him back home..
War isn't rambling, nor is it home. I don't think war makes sense here. I think it's talking about a man who has "rambling" in his blood; he just doesn't take well to staying in one place. He's with a woman who wants to stay where she is, so he has to choose, and it pulls him apart emotionally. That leads to the schizo lyrics about "I'm gonna leave you" and "I'm never never never gonna leave you".
When he says "we're gonna go walking in the park every day" I think he's anticipating settling down with this woman someday in the future, once he's done "rambling".
JMO.
Yes, I read some years ago that it’s about leaving for war.
Sometimes all I can say is it's the music that draws me in.
he needs "to find the queen on all my dreams"
they're love songs
Loved your reaction to Zep. I have watched quite a few reactions to Zep and it amazes me how many young black people seem to really get the music. I am asking an honest question--can you explain why that is? I know music transcends everything, but it is puzzling why so many young people are listening when they used to just listen to rap and hip hop. Many whites did not get Zep when I was young ( I was 15 when I first heard them), so I am loving the reactions of today's young people. Cheers
Thx so much still so grande a composition, I adhered to 30 years ago... X-Wybo in Holland
Love your interpretations and how carefully you listen to the music, also your sound is amazing, not so much with some of the others I've heard, sometimes the music just doesn't sound as clear and vibrant.
i cannot get enuf of LOOKN AT YOU !!!!!!!! ROCK ON ALLWAYZ !!!!!
I can picture you in the crowd at a Zeppelin concert in 1972 passing the joint down the row.
My god you are so expressive, I just stumbled on your channel, and I LOVE your reactions!
Plant was 20 years old singing like a season vet
Yep, turned 20 just a few weeks before recording this.
You’ve got the “hippie head turning side to side” down Pat... lol
