When I Play Led Zeppelin Stairway To Heaven in Public | Cole Lam

- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 15 พ.ค. 2024
- Led Zeppelin Stairway to Heaven is slowly becoming one of my favourite rock anthems to play - "I Have Never Seen Anyone Play Led Zeppelin Like That!" is what the couple says! How cool is that. I think I put in that extra bit of energy in the end, channelling myself through the music into the piano.
Like I said in my 'Behind the scene of "The Piano"' video - • Behind The Scenes TV "... - if I knew it was being judged for something like Royal Festival Hall, then this is probably what I would have chosen. I love big rock anthems, I connect with them more, and well - I think you can tell I love playing them!

Cole, put 'The Piano' behind you, I was disgusted by it -a total sham! You are better than that, move on, old chap!
And it was totally WICKED !!! (In a good way).
Led Zeppelin has so many amazing songs, I hope you play more of their songs 😊
Which ones?
@@ColeLam
Cole, the Zeppelin catalog is very varied. Their songs were influenced by blues and oriental sounds. It would be interesting for you to listen and choose. There are fantastic songs like Kashmir, The Rain Song, All My Love (maybe you like this one, Robert Plant wrote it for his son who died at the age of five), there are so many, it’s hard to say. I trust your choice, any Zepp song will be great 😊
I've been a musician for over 45 years and have played my share of Led Zeppelin songs but this is the most beautiful rendition I've heard, thanks for sharing it with the world!
Wow, thank you!
Agree
Your passion touched my heart and tears my eyes...............@@ColeLam
We guitar players dare not in a music store I dare say you can play on maestro
And most tolerable. I still believe it was a rip off from spirit
Dearest Cole, We Thank you. This was our Daughter's song. We lost her a few years ago, Your rendition brought us joy. Thank you❤
I am sorry for your loss. I hope this brought find memories
It is your LOVE for her that has assured her place in heaven. Continue to honor her before your reunion. You have been blessed twice. Once when she arrived on earth and then again, when she arrived into the Kingdom of God.
Please accept the love of a stranger for you both, and for your daughter.
😪❤
Belated Condolences and yes, hes got amazing talent.
I’m just amazed! 1, at Cole’s rendition, 2, at the absolute lack of a crowd around this. I would have stopped and listened.
Led Zeppelin was good, but when Rush formed, just brilliant..and I mostly stopped listening to Zep. Especially once Neil Peart (Pea-Yurt) joined, Ohhh...Enki. I didn't like Stairway of Heaven, it was too religious for me. As for the people..and music - most music after 2010 is pure junk, especially with the advent of Auto-Tune and Rap becoming, somehow, more popular. I've heard people playing Rush music using a piano, and I'll tell you, if you come into a song after the person has been playing for a bit, it can be challenging to know *what* the person is playing. I knew from the beginning of this, and I didn't need the title, to know what song he is going to play. But had I been there, or anywhere, after it had gotten started...I wouldn't have been able to tell. With an Electric Guitar, I would have. Drums, I might be able to tell.
I know he plays well, and that's what I would have been enjoying. Though the piano isn't my favorite instrument I adore listening when people are actually playing *something* rather than using some kind of lame machine doing sampling. Auto-Tune I cannot handle, that's for people who don't sing well, and shouldn't be singing at all. It sounds horrible.
For a lot of people, if it isn't "Pop" junk they don't know what a song is. I don't listen to Pop, and I know a lot of people, at least around where I am, listen to horrible Rap stuff, and are blowing our their ears with over-done bass, so I don't hear a lot of GOOD music anymore from cars. Once in a while.. It also depends where you are on this Earth, some people know Zed Zeppelin and others...not at all. I love Marvel movies, but was very disappointed that not a single Rush song made it into "Guardians of the Galaxy" movies for being such an influential band.
I dig his passion, not a song choice I would go with, but...the passion matters and that's why I would have stopped for a little while. Led Zeppelin doesn't really appeal to me much anymore, BUT he didn't sing the lyrics, so...I might have stayed to watch him getting into it because of that.
Mr Blue Sky is kind of special in Guardians of the Galaxy
No kidding. I’m floored that everyone is that busy they don’t stop and listen.
its a train station. people don't go there to listen to live music. they have trains to catch.
I am always amazed at just how lacking the public is in situational awareness.
It’s a loss to all the people that didn’t stop to listen. One time I stopped to hear a violinist playing a classical piece in the DC Metro. Turned out he he was world famous and was playing a very old and valuable violin.
Cole you are awesome.
If he did that now he'd get mugged and his violin stolen.
I remember hearing that story. Cool you got to see him
Wasn't that a video somewhere too? Something about if people would appreciate it.
As a child of the 70's, and a huge fan of this song, I tip my hat to your rendition of this great classic. I'm sure the band would approve.
I thought the same thing. I wonder what Robert Jimmy John Paul and, Bonzo 🕊️would think of this? I know they would be honored if they heard this amazing young man playing one their most famous songs Perfectly on an old out of tune piano. This kid is a Prodogy
Yeah I saw this performed live. I believe they would approve.
Correction: I meant I saw Led Zeppelin live, not this guy. He is awesome though. Those who witnessed this were blessed.
I hope Led Zeppelin finds this video and praises you. So Awesome.
It truly saddens me to see so many people walking by not able to take 5 minutes out of their day to appreciate a once in a lifetime performance. Im blown away by this version. ❤
Wow, very kind words!
People are uneducated and not aware of anything of beauty around them.
As a HUGE Led Zep fan, I am totally blown away at how perfectly this was orchestrated! Somehow, magically you were able to incorporate the vocals, drums guitar and bass on a piano - truly amazing!
And somehow the background chatter and noises just seem to fit in perfectly as well.
He's got a perfect ear for it.
Is that what they call perfect pitch ⁉️ idk.
Whatever it is, I don't have it🤣🤣🤣
I totally agree with you. I just saw this guy and sunscribed. Among the great youtube piano players, he is the one who express all the instruments.
Amazing .I love Led Zeppelin. I've never seen anyone play Stairway To Heaven on the piano. Someone give this guy a great paying job playing this damn thing . He highly deserves it.
He has got 950,000 subs so far, jump in!
Look up Gamazda. This young woman has a TH-cam channel featuring her piano playing. She does a great rendition of Stairway.
This is proof that a quality song can be played on anything and still sound epic. ❤😊
Listen to Luca Stricagnoli and thank me later lol. One of the best guitarists I have ever heard, and he covers many, many songs in a unique arrangement style; often with modified and unique guitars.
@@py_a_thon I shall do so. 😊
IF played right....
@@silverscat6770 I have heard many songs played incorrectly. Yet the song still sounds great.
@@py_a_thon Technically perhaps, Page was famous for it...... but still right.
People know nothing, feel nothing. But you are an artist.
💯
As Jimmy explains he wanted the song to keep unfolding as it went along to reveal more and more building into a crescendo. This is an excellent performance that stays true to to the original concept.
Sounds like someone’s lawyer in a bathtub that haha
And it makes me woooonder.... how many people goes away without realizing how big is the song you play how freakin good you are.
Might be the best reason to have previously tried to play piano like this ... the understanding of what these guys can do is exponential since you can't - hehe - but you understand. And you can dream I guess.
I can't believe more people aren't stopping to watch and listen. Absolutely 'heavenly'.
Simply Because they can’t understand how incredible is the performance and the song
Or maybe it's because it's a train station ? People have trains to catch.
How can anyone just walk past talent like this and not stop to admire and appreciate the opportunity? They are dead inside !
I agree! Isn't it odd? See my comment above under superdude1759
Or they have important stuff to do.
Or they just don't want to be in some random person TH-cam video. I notice plenty of folks standing in the distance in many of these types of videos.
@@moguaiato5583
Do you really think they're putting that much thought into it? So let's see, "oh look, there's someone over there playing beautiful music, but I better not go over, stand around, observe and take it all in because I might end up in some random video that...ill never see myself in because it's random, but I'm afraid everyone else that I know may see me!"
I don't know, something tells me there's a slight chance that may not be the case.
@superdude1759 you must be slow if you think that it takes alot of thought to decide when you see a camera to decide to stay out of its view. It's a pretty simple thought process.
As a life long Zeppelin fan, all I can say is "EPIC"!
I'm sure LED zeppelin would appreciate that version of their mega hit! Wow amazing stuff! Bravo! 👏 👏 😄 👏 👏Kudos from Asia 💪💪💪🥰
That's the first time I've ever heard a piano version of Stairway and I already know nothing will ever top it!
That rendition is truly next level! The way you made it your own while being faithful to the melody is beyond genius! 💥Mind BLOWN!💥
Robert, Jimmy, John Paul and Bonzo would be proud young man. You are awesome! 👍🏻
That was incredible. This young man is very talented. Ive been listening to that song for 40 years and never heard anything that compares to this. Beautiful
Except of course the original, which is incomparably better
Fabulous rendition. Give Gamazda a listen she is amazing as well.
How many thumbs up can I put on this video? Absolutely amazing :)
👍🏻👍👍🏼👍🏽👍🏾👍🏿
beyond incredible. This guy put together strings, guitars, bass, flute, harmony, melody from an entire band, using only a piano. He is super talented.
Wow. You can really hear the subtle chords better on the piano. Also, I love the way he took the singer's inflections and interpreted it onto the piano.
Absolutely brilliant! Fabulous arrangement and stunning interpretation. Privilege to watch and listen to such talent. Loved it.
Not many people would attempt to cover Led Zeppelin,in any capacity. You have done it exceptionally . It is also a tribute to how the original translates to a classical style so beautifully. Thank you,keep playing beautiful music !🎶🎹🎶
This is one of the most played songs by cover bands, and people messing around on guitar. I learned this song very early when I started playing guitar.
He could probably get away with playing this in a music shop lol. That is an achievement.
Zep cover bands are a dime a dozen and most of them suck.
No shit this is my solemn space to go when I play this on guitar, I won't ever reach as zen as I was watching this for the first time ever again. The raw emotion and soul in the solo sequence was powerful.
Immaculate cover!
One of my favorites, but I've never heard it like that! Absolutely killer!!!!! I feel sorry for all those people not stopping to enjoy that, and thanks for sharing!
I think I can honestly speak for the majority of this planet and just say how great that really was! Thank you Cole & good luck onwards in your career. You have great talent son, and thank you for sharing it with us all.
You can honestly speak only for yourself
I do not think you speak for the majority of the planet . Speak for yourself and leave it at that .
nah. i speak whatever i feel. And you can deal with it or not, loser.
@@michaelblankenau6598
Would be incredible to hear him play Elton John's TICKING !
as the representative of the majority of the world ... I am told ; WE concur.
OMG! I can't believe my ears! "Stairway to Heaven" on the piano! Thus! Amazing! I have no words!
I’ve listened to several of Cole’s compositions on the piano. Somehow with only 88 keys ( mostly less than 88), he can make anything he plays sound like an entire orchestra! Stairway to Heaven was the prom theme of the first prom I attended way back when. I ended up being lifetime friends with the guy that I went to the prom with but this song holds a special place in my heart that longs for simpler times.
Absolutely breathtaking performance of a timeless classic. Thank you for sharing this experience for the world to enjoy.
I've watched so many of your amazing video performances and I've noticed something. You're always so shy in accepting compliments, and then resort to your water bottle where your thanks and gratitude is swallowed up by the muffle of you drinking water lol. Be proud of your talent and confidently say 'hey thanks man, glad you enjoyed it!'. Keep up the good work! Amazing!
You breathe new life into that song. It's beautiful!
I am in utter and complete amazement!!! This was one of the most incredible performances and renditions of a rock classic!! I’m also shocked by the seemly thousands of people passing by that don’t even take in the pure magic that is happening right before them!
Their tone deaf 😢🇦🇺🌹☮️💟🕉️🇦🇺🇮🇩🇺🇦💐🛐🙏🙏🍀
They have busy lives, scheduled trains to catch. They likely appreciated the sounds as they inevitably passed by.
It's weird to me how many people aren't into music. It's like a major piece is missing.
Eso es Led Zeppelin amigo, algo inmensamente magico que aparecio en el mundo y que en un piano volvio a resurgir como un fenix por unos minutos. Espectacular.
The Power of Music this young man possesses he does. The Power to bring people together he will wield.
I came here for Led Zeppelin, I stayed for the stunning performance of Cole Lam. Thank you, this was utterly beautiful :)
I can't imagine the amount of work you must have done to arrive to this level .... So much dedication always amazes me ... Bravo
I never seen or heard anybody play Stairway To Heaven on the panel like that that was brilliant very beautiful melodic
WOW! That was INCREDIBLE Cole. Watching from South Texas at 3am! Now I can’t sleep because I’m so jacked up after hearing this genius rendition of Stairway To Heaven! Hope the launches your career into the stratosphere! Well done and stay safe!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Epic rendition of a timeless classic. So much emotion and energy. Robert Plant would be proud!
From here in Brazil, I like these street singers and shoping around the world, if you know the talent of the human being, whatever country he or she is from, congratulations to this guy who plays a song by one of the greatest bands in the world and very well on the Piano. Hugs to all.
So many that just walk past without stopping. We (western society) are all (myself included) just too scheduled and busy to appreciate truly beautiful things like the playing of this song live. How much LIFE is right under our noses that minute by minute we let just pass us by?.
Beautiful.
I first heard this song when it was released in 1971. 52 years later, it still gives me goosebumps. Nicely played sir!
Incredible. To play all of the nuances of the song, and still add fillers and flair.. phenomenal
Great rendition of a classic song. Your interpretation is passionate and emotive. I could not have walked past if I'd heard this playing live. I definitely would've stopped to appreciate it.
me to I woul😢have found a chair and sit for as long as you played.😊
It's amazing how many people simply walk by and not pay attention! If I were there, I sit down on the ground, mesmerized, in awe. I was wondering if Cole could make the piano sing as loud as Robert Plant. As judged by the kid coverage his ears, Cole indeed made the piano scream.
I loved music passionately as 15-year-olds do when the original came out and thought it was akin to finding gold/religious experience. I've heard many covers of it over the decades but never one like this. it must be so cool to create music thru your fingertips
Oh Cole, this made me smile and cry at the same time. Stairway To Heaven is my anthem, I hear it every day, I've heard it thousands of times and I never get tired of it. A masterpiece, one of the most beautiful songs ever recorded and the most iconic guitar solo of all time. I could almost hear the unmistakable voice of Robert Plant…I wish Jimmy Page could hear that. Your performance was amazing, perfect, worthy of the greatest rock band in the universe. I LOVED! 😍 Thanks a lot 😊
Agree with it
This young man has awesome talent, he's the first I've seen play this on the piano !!
Amazing performance. The piano is just so versatile, and you make use of every bit of nuance you can get from it.
*F' N A DOODLE DUDE! You NAILED it. Tears welled up in my eyes.*
One day I will show my tiny grandson your videos…he listens to them when I do …I thank you from my heart for sharing the music you play…it’s Never too soon in life to listen ! This is Wonderful, Cole. Thank You 🙏🏼 💕
Absolutely
I love his Emotion As He Plays . You Can tell He really Loves music. HE is Great too. God Bless him .Amen .
You deserve a stand ovation my man!
Just the Intro was so beautiful, I began weeping. This is effing incredible - young man.
If you take requests, you should try Tangerine, All My Love and Ten Years Gone - all very emotional songs.
Great job again, champ !
I bet you have a hard time walking past a piano without wanting to stop and play it.
Great video!!!!! Thanks for letting us enjoy your talents !!!!!!🙂
Definitely! A piano had to be played!
WOW WOW WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Cole, this one was an experience (back in my day we would have called it a trip). Loved the pianist, loved the song selection, loved the energy and passion. You took a true classic, played it as well, or better than anyone could and then blew it out of the water by exploding into it with that Cole Lam genius. I'm glad there's only one of you, I couldn't handle two. All I can say is goodness gracious, great balls of fire, oh, and also, as always, Love ya buddy, stay safe and healthy.❤❤❤👑of🎹👏👏👏
I'm not sure whether I'm more amazed at his mastery on the piano or the fact that so many people just walked by w/o even giving so much as a glance!
I've loved this song since the day it was released, and hearing such a wonderful piano rendition is literally " music to my ears ". Well played Cole, thanks for the entertainment and the trip down memory lane.
OMG !!! This was absolutely the most beautifulest piano playing song I have ever heard. It brings back the good old days when I was young. If I were there I probably would have shouted out BRAVO BRAVO! You should get yourself an agent and have agent book you for the performing arts in front of hundreds of people to listen to how you play your piano so so eloquently. Thank you for being on TH-cam. Hope you one day play in concert. Good luck....
At 5:43: Now it gets serious! Never heard any pianist doing a concert of Stairway tackle it with such vigor. Excellent.
OMG! This was mind blowing. Not only his talent and skill, he flowed with the music. He played from his soul, thank you.
This is one of the most beautifully composed music scores
I've watched/listened to you for couple of years now. I have always been impressed with your artistry. However, in my estimation, recently you have hit a new (and amazing) level of musicianship. It's been a pleasure to observe your growth. I wish you nothing but success, health, love and happiness! Your parents must be very proud of you!!!
Absolutely brilliant! Bravo! 👏🏻
Can't fathom how people just walk by when this is being played so beautifully.
Simply AMAZING!!!!!! I am a big fan of Led Zeppelin and this gave me goosebumps. Awesome!!!!!
You've truly outdone yourself, Mr.Lam. Fantastic Performance!🔥
THAT WAS BEAUTIFUL COLE
I was mesmerized by this beautiful rendition of Stairway to Heaven! It was so wonderfully personalized and performed! He looked in the zone as they say! I had one year of piano so I have a great respect for anyone that can play much less play so well! It is truly a gift! I have always loved this song since the original was performed in the early 70's. It was a song frequently played at all our school dances. Thank you so much for sharing your talent!
This oh so talented and gifted Gentleman brings new definition and intensity to the age old expression 'Playing With Passion'! Wow! BRAVO!!!
He plays it so good you can almost hear Robert Plant's voice coming from the keys. Bravo Cole!!!
What an Amazing Talented person ! The whole Stairway to Heaven on a piano ,from memory . I can't get over just how good that session was !
Thank you Cole you’ve turned a classic into a masterpiece. This was absolutely amazing.🌟🔥🌟🔥🌟🔥🌟🔥
Goosebumps. So much emotion was played into this rendition.
It's stairway to heaven! Woohoo 🎉 thanks Cole! You always perform good covers especially this Led Zep's iconic song! 😊 Thanks for doing a cover again! 👏👏👏👍👍👍
This song brings tears to my eyes because it reminds me of a time when all my friends were so happy. A few have passed but the rest of us that remain have an breakable bond and this particular song revitalizes a time when life was so innocent and how beautiful life was when we had youth on our side. Life is good, absorb every minute of it.
Man... I'm in tears at the heart and soul that went into this. I LOVE music... I can't imagine anything that would have stopped me from stopping to listen to you play that song... Incredible...I would have not be able to get close enough to hear the music loud enough even though you was ROCKING that thing man... I freaking loved it and ALL public displays of brilliance like this... It is magical to those who are not deaf...
This is truly a great rendition of the song, most beautiful and heartfelt.
I was half expecting smoke to start billowing out the back of the piano with this one 😂
So amazing!! Your tallent blows my mind. I have played the Cello for 23 years. Now am trying to teach myself the piano via youtube. I have the basics but one day wish to be as good as you are. You are an inspiration to the love of music and passion. This from a 43 year old man. lol
Taking a classic piece of music, providing an interpretation for one instrument, that provides the intencity and the glide of the song, you have achieved that.
Beautiful playing...we are so very grateful to experience this ...thank you
That was an amazing rendition of Led Zeppelin Stairway to Heaven it's without a doubt one of the best I've ever heard and that's coming from somebody who's actually seen them one of their last shows
Incredible. You gotta record this with great mics on a concert grand, and release it officially. I don't know how all the copyright stuff works, but this would be a great one for a full album release.
I have played it on a grand piano at Yamaha Music London store. If you look up Stairway to Heaven Cole Lam you should find it. But I will record a clearer version
Listened to this again and just love it. Talented.
JUST UNREAL , WOOW , SO SMOOTH , SO GENTLY PLAYED AND POWERFUL , AMAZINGLY BEAUTIFULLY PLAYED !!!❤🎉
I’d hate to be trying to catch a train if your playing the piano. Ha, I’d be late for sure 😃
Love how the versions match your mood at the time you play them, thanks Cole and team.
Absolutely brilliant. Beyond words. Thanks for sharing.
i love this song since 1992..
this version suits my place in life.
💙👏🏼
AWESOME!! I was humming the lyrics to myself as you played!!! Sad though people are in such a hurry to get to nowhere and don't stop just for a few minutes and LISTEN!!! Every artist has to pay the dues....keep it up! Someday people will be paying to see you do this!!
Dear Cole, I’ve listened to other piano covers, to me none other captured the force the rich sound and melody and rhythm as yours. Just brilliant! 😊truly captivating. Same feeling triggered as if i was listening to actual led zeppelin live versions. Really there’s Robert singing, the drums, bass, guitar all in you and your playing and now i will also forever hear your piano whenever i listen to them. What a treat!
Brought tears to my eyes. Thank you.
Music soothes the savage beast. Absolutely beautiful. How can people just walk by? ❤
Superb played one of my favourite piano covers COLE keep on playing u are great pianist.thanks always for your videos.God bless Cole.
Never heard anyone do justice to this song as you did. Fantastic interpretation, You deserve kudos for this performance, it was fabulous. Thanks so much, it was a pleasure to listen to you.
Absolutely spell-binding! And thanks to TH-cam, your virtuoso performance will be enjoyed by millions for years to come.
