I’m not sure of the ages of this couple. But I believe the young lady has a “classic rock” soul. Every classic rock reaction I watch of theirs she just grooves and gets lost in the song. Quite impressive.
The storyteller is telling his tale and then moving on. He tried, but realized that he was not going to change her. in his heart he loved her, but in the end he knew it wouldn't last, because she was who she was, and she didn't want to change. Lesson learned. Another blues classic from LZ.
It's kind of a theme with Robert. Fool In The Rain is the same. He's fallen in love with a woman that either plays around or is a working girl, and is in that painful realization that he's not going to get the commitment he wants. Which is funny cuz another theme is that he's gonna get restless and have to Ramble On himself
It was hidden. Up until the early 90's it could only be heard on the B side of Whole Lotta Love 45 rpm or the rare times FM radio played it at 3 AM....
@@zeppelinfan9360 You have "ZEPPELIN FAN" for a name. I'm a fan too..... but probably NOT as much as you. You made a very obscure correction lending credibility to your "fan-ship". .... And I ended my note with "Thanks" for the correction. I hope this clears it up.
That's what made them the greatest. Being able to vary styles. Sometimes within the same album, but definitely over then course of the bands career. Songs like this and then to go to Fool in the Rain or the Rover or Custard Pie or In My time of Dying. Truly amazing
Do you know how you can tell if you have an original version,or a repress?In between the grooves of the 45, and the label you'll see something written:"Do what thou wilt,shall be the whole of the law".If that's not there,you don't have an original

@@pastorofmuppets22 Wow! You know a thing or two about records. What is the Smithsonian doing with your collection now? Got any Zeppelin stuff you’d like to sell?
This has always been one of my favorite Zeppelin songs. Listening to Robert Plant riff at the end makes me think Robert must have inspired David Lee Roth.
He probably did inspire DLR (he inspired everyone else), but what shocked the heck out of me was when I read that one of the biggest influences on Roth was Al Jolson. I didn't see that one coming, but it makes sense with his showmanship and quirky humor.
In my top five Zep songs. Not sure why this wasn't released on a full length album. At the end, John Paul Jones on the mandolin, playing fast, as Lex says.
The lyrics sum it up: Gonna pack my bags and move on my way 'Cause I got a worried mind sharin' what I thought was mine Gonna leave her where the guitars play
I used to tell my wife this song reminded me of her. She thought it was sweet of me. She always loved the melody but never paid attention to the words for over twenty years. I almost had a heart attack from laughing. Seriously I almost literally died from laughter. I spent the weekend in the hospital. I am cracking up right now about it.
I've always known Led Zeppelin. I never really gave them a chance. Like, about 3-4 months ago I forced myself to listen to their debut album. I haven't really listened to much else since than Zep.
@@JohnQuetsch I never liked rock n roll bands that have a singer who has a high-pitched voice and I always thought that Led Zeppelin is one. I don't know if this makes sense. The Doors is my all time favorite band and David Bowie is my favorite artist.
@@CapteinRiggs Yep, I get that. I had trouble with that too, but the heavy-ness (especially for back then) and jaw dropping musicianship got me at first listen back when it came out. LZ 1&2 were two of my very favorite albums. I played those two Lps until they were worn out. The Doors and Early Bowie were both so "out there" that everyone was drawn to them.
This is my favorite Led Zeppelin song...and that's a big statement. It was only released as a B Side and wasnt available on studio albums for a very long time.
hes got the blues if you havent noticed yet a good song can be wriitten about any situation,subject feeling emotion loven cheatin squeesen hurten,teasen an so can a bad song.
One of my favorite Zeppelin songs, love the way they pull off that southern sound. Zeppelin were so versatile. I once read a quote that said "They could do it all, and do it all well."
I was going to post this request but you beat me to it. That song is unbelievably good, bluesy and mystical at the same time. You guys would really like it!
Imagine this; a song of this quality did not make it onto a formal Led Zeppelin album. Not until the Delux Coda album, not even onto the original Coda sweep up album. 😲
I know Lexi is learning guitar so just some background here. The descending riff at the end of the song is actually on a mandolin. Mandolins appear on a lot of Blue grass and country music. There tuned similar to a guitar but in reverse.
This song was almost impossible to find before the late 90s. I remember hearing it on a classic rock station in the early 90s and I went to every record store I could find to buy it, but could never find a store that had it.. Lex nailed it "hurt so good"
Miss the metal reactions, but will always tune in for a good Zeppelin classic. If you guys haven't yet you should react to "512" by Lamb of God. It's the song lead singer Randy Blythe wrote while in a 3rd world prison for murder charges. Long story short he tossed a fan off stage and the fan died. Randy had a right to protect himself and the band. However the local authorities felt 2 years was a valid sentence. 512 was his cell number.
I've said it on every reaction and I will keep on saying it... Led Zeppelin is my all time favorite band.. each player is a master of their art. Vocals Robert Plant has a voice that just melts me...
By far my favorite Zeppelin song. I had never even heard this song until sometime in the mid 80’s and it absolutely blew me away. One of their most unheralded songs. Thank you for introducing more folks to this absolute gem.
@@johnr.8275 : Same thing in "Ramble On". The guitar chord changes are easy, but the bass is what carries the song with Bonzo's bodhran playing a steady tap, too.
Many of LZs songs throughout their career were re-makes of old American Blues some dating back to the 1920s. This was one of them. And many with lyrics that are hyper-sexual or violent are taken from these early relics. That made more sense to me when I originally thought Robert Plant had a great sense of American levee and dam history. It's a real thing and many tragedies existed hence the blues song When The Levee Breaks. Thank you again Brad & Lex!
Led Zeppelin was the true meaning of the term Rock Stars. They were inspired by Blues and Funky Jazz. The were so complex. You ever notice that no two Led Zeppelin songs never sound similar. Music geniuses.
Greatest B side song ever recorded imo. The A side (gotta be old to remember the 8 inch records with one song per side lol) was The Immigrant Song, which was also amazing. :)
This song was not in an album when it came out, was just the “b-side” of a single. Usually b-sides are not very good and are just the flip side of the more popular single that’s being promoted.
In the UK, they often didn't put either side of the 45 on the album. The reasoning was that they felt it wasn't fair to make someone buy the same song twice. OTOH, in America, they had no problem selling it twice, although some bands, like Zeppelin, did not sell singles near as much as albums. Zeppelin singles were mostly just a promotional tool to sell the album (not that they were necessary), as top 40 radio rarely played Led Zeppelin.
“Oooooo, He got him a nasty one”. Lex is crazy entertaining. 🤣
I’m not sure of the ages of this couple. But I believe the young lady has a “classic rock” soul. Every classic rock reaction I watch of theirs she just grooves and gets lost in the song. Quite impressive.
@@mattbecham597 hahaha then you must be really young, like 12 or something! Hell my son is 32
She knows what she likes and finds a story in each song. Adorable. She is cute!
This is true. She can feel it
I would love them to react to anything from the Rival Sons...Lexy would get it!
so true, Lex feels it, the other half is a sour-puss who never had a good day in his life, or so it seems.
Vocal melody is fucking spectacular. Gotta be one of Plant's best performances.
All songs that he sings...are amazing
It is definitely one of my favorite of his.
Agree. In a way, Axl captures the same melody in Sweet Child of Mine. I’m no musician, but I feel a similar vibe with those two songs.
best rock band. best zeppelin song.
He did not have the high range much longer after this . After 1973 his voice could not do the high range like he once did
The storyteller is telling his tale and then moving on. He tried, but realized that he was not going to change her. in his heart he loved her, but in the end he knew it wouldn't last, because she was who she was, and she didn't want to change. Lesson learned. Another blues classic from LZ.

Bro.
Holy shit. This is what I’m going through.
I needed this. Thank you so much :)
Have never seen a reaction to this one. It was funny when you figured out it's a "nasty" girl he's singing about. One of my favorite LZ, so thanks.
GREAT CHOICE! One of Zeppelin's true hidden gems - the ending flourish is just epic.

Easily one of my favorite Led Zeppelin songs! And it wasn't even released on a mainstream album! Fantastic!
You guys should listen to Zepp’s Nobody’s Fault but Mine. A blues rock masterpiece.
who hasn't ever felt this way when he says " I got a worried mind, sharing what I thought was mine" damn just masterful lyrics
... Gonna leave her when the guitars play... That section is really nicely written.
Plant was such a great song writer.
Zeppelin entered so many genres. Acoustic with the bass taking front, shows how John Paul Jones was the quiet genius.
Yeah, 'Zeppelins' George Harrison.
Also Jones playing Mandolin
That's what made them the greatest. Being able to vary styles. Sometimes within the same album, but definitely over then course of the bands career. Songs like this and then to go to Fool in the Rain or the Rover or Custard Pie or In My time of Dying. Truly amazing
Always nice to hear a bass punching through acoustic guitars
This song & Ramble On are among my top favorite Zep songs.
the best 4 musicians ever in a band
Without a doubt.
👍
That little red lamp really ties the room together.
This song was never released on an album but was released on the back side of the Imigrant Song 45.
And it was hard to find at one time.
@@kurtsaxton823 took me awhile to get it.
yes, it was a b-side to immigrant song until it was included on the 1990 box set.

@@pastorofmuppets22 I'm gonna have to dig in my storage and look, I bought mine in 1977 and I have about 1600 albums from the 60- 80s stored.
they deemed this not good enough to release on an album!!!! thats how great they were
It's crazy they considered this song not that good to put on the LZ III. It's frickin awesome.
But yet one of the Greatest heart tugs of a song! Fantastic!!!
These lyric videos can tend to be hilarious. “Wanna tell her that I lover so”, should be “Wanna tell her that I LOVE HER so”.
'One thing left for me to loose' should be 'one thing left for me to do'.
How about "Led Zepplin" at the beginning? JFC, they couldn't even get THAT right.
OUTSTANDING! Rock on Brad & Lex
Ok since you did this one, Traveling Riverside Blues would be a great one to do next!!
Yes, it is really something when Robert Plant shifts into that higher gear on the last line of the refrain.
Hey guys I just was scrolling through the tube and saw that You folks are either expecting a child or you have had a child by now congratulations God-bless you and your family.
No one ever reviews their great ballad, called "The Battle Of Evermore". Completely different and tells a tale.
Great song
Bring it back...bring it back...bring it back... Bring it, bring it, bring it, bring AT bring AT bring AT bring AAAAAAAAAHHHHTTTTT
Another beautiful gem by Led Zeppelin!
Incredible that, until the more recent box sets, this song was only available on bootlegs and an America only single b-side I think.
It was the flip side to the Immigrant Song.Never on an album

In my top five Zep songs. Not sure why this wasn't released on a full length album. At the end, John Paul Jones on the mandolin, playing fast, as Lex says.
It was explicitly written for the purpose of being the b-side to Immigrant Song.
That fast part at the end was an instrument called the mandolin and it is also on the rest of the song too. It's a folk and bluegrass instrument
Lex. You are so the rocker in your soul. Love it.
The lyrics sum it up:
Gonna pack my bags and move on my way
'Cause I got a worried mind sharin' what I thought was mine

No matter how obscure A SONG FROM ZEPPELIN you cant find one you would dislike. Thats how good they are...
At the end of these songs Robert Plant would just go off singing whatever came into his mind. And live even more so!

A unique sound for Led Zep. I like it. Hootie did a good cover of it.

Ladies do not break up with Robert Plant, he will trash you in every song. 😂🤣😂🤣

Thank you! Finally someone commends JPJ's great bassline.
@@johnr.8275 : Same thing in "Ramble On". The guitar chord changes are easy, but the bass is what carries the song with Bonzo's bodhran playing a steady tap, too.
'Ball all day" has a very sexual meaning... Old hippie term... Lol!
you know a band is great when they felt this song wasn't up to par to put on an album
It’s only in the lyrics once, but the guitar is saying “Hey… Hey… What Can I Do” the entire song.
Lex knows!!!!
He's got a woman that is a door knob. Everyone gets a turn.
Again, Gr8 storytelling with a real “Honky Tonk” grove which shows the level of diversity of Led Zeppelin.

This song was not in an album when it came out, was just the “b-side” of a single. Usually b-sides are not very good and are just the flip side of the more popular single that’s being promoted.
B-side of Immigrant Song, recorded in 1970 or 1971, correct?
In the UK, they often didn't put either side of the 45 on the album. The reasoning was that they felt it wasn't fair to make someone buy the same song twice. OTOH, in America, they had no problem selling it twice, although some bands, like Zeppelin, did not sell singles near as much as albums. Zeppelin singles were mostly just a promotional tool to sell the album (not that they were necessary), as top 40 radio rarely played Led Zeppelin.
