John and Consuelo: glad you out that debate to rest because despite all that, wow! What a great version. Such power! Just freaking enjoy it. Used to blast this out our dorm windows onto the Quad in college in spring ‘69. It either got thumbs up and dancing or dirty looks.
This makes sense. I never really thought it was a permanent breakup either, at least not a completely voluntary one. He is singing about forces calling him. And also the pull to go home. In my mind I translated this to the sort of relationship Old World sailors had with their Polynesian families. No matter how happy, healthy, and idealic, there was a call to get back on the sea, and a call to go "home". In my mind it is the requiem of the traveler who MUST travel to live, but Loves his woman and home, and sometimes they aren't the same thing. Databyter
@@Databyter A lot of Led Zeppelin's songs refer to rambling, travelling or the lure of the open road. It's obviously a theme that appeals to Robert, and also relates to the nomadic life of musicians on tour. However the original song was written by Anne Bredon.
Totally agreed but in my case it was in in the 80's :) when I was a 12 or 13 and for sure I have never heard anything like Led Zeppelin. It 's the best band ever
I’ve watched all your Led Zeppelin reactions. You’re learning why so many people consider them the greatest rock band E-V-E-R and there could never be anyone better than them.
I liken the band members to a football team. Robert Plant is the star quarterback. Jimmy Page is the flashy, talented wide receiver. Bonham on drums is the thundering, Hall of Fame running back. John Paul Jones, though, is the entire offensive line that allows the others to do all that they do.
They have been blowing my mind for over 40 years they are unbelievable and untouchable I'll pay anyone to beat led zeppelin it's impossible greatest band in history of rock and roll
60s were pretty good too. This particular song came out on lp in late 60s. The 70s were great though,I agree . I happened to be a teenager of both those decades. I turned 18.in late 72.
@@juliemanarin4127 I get it. I turned 66 fairly recently. Great variety of music. Sadly. , I really miss listening to radio back then. Something new everyday it seemed back then.

Led Zeppelin.... Rock Legends and I would call them “ROCK GOD’s”.... Please travel down the rabbit hole and explore their music. There’s so much to listen too. Led Zeppelin was my first band that I sought to own all their albums.... yeah.... Mmmmm
The singer, Robert Plant, and the drummer, John Bonham, were both only 19 years old when they recorded this. I love all their albums, but their first is my very favorite.
@@robertphelps1574 Which is also remarkable. Whether it's 19 or 20 or even 25, that's really young to have what sounds to be a lifetime of experience come through in his voice. THAT's the point. Johnny Cash singing Hurt at the end of his life was very different from Trent Reznor singing it early on in his.
I LOVE .....LOVE LED ZEPPELIN.....I have been in Love with them for YEARS~this song....this songs above all others songs always does it for me. This song is Beyond...I mean BEYOND DOPE!!!! Wow!!!! lol...to see it leaving you speachless.....hahahahaaha...was a treat!!!!
I just love the hell out of you girl! And I noticed that guitar in the background that completes the picture. Led Zeppelin the greatest rock room in the history of mankind. Not do me a favor please listen to the greatest voice ever given to a man by God mr. David Phelps. Songs like. Just as I am. Never Walk Alone. No More Night. Your Love, and so many more please listen to him live as he seems better life than most people do in the studio. I just love you girl you're real and heartfelt
They performed this song live on Danish TV in 1969 and it's even better than the studio "Babe I'm going to leave you" (Danmarks Radio 1969) live Their 4 song set live for Danish TV is the first performance of them captured on film. After watching it can understand why no other artist or bands wanted to follow them at the concerts.
Well Ms Jayy, when my wife passed away from cancer back in 2005, this was the song she played to me on a CD player at the lawyers office. During the reading of the will and what her wishes were they played this Led Zeppelin song along with Pink Floyd The great gig in the sky. She was a musician who played keyboards and guitar. She met both these bands way back in the day. So they had extra meaning to her, which was one reason why she played them for me. Miss her every day.
This song was originally written by American folk singer Anne Bredon in the '50's. Joan Baez (another American folk singer) recorded it for her 1962 album which is the album Jimmy Page first heard it on. Jimmy had been practicing and reworking it and recorded it with his new group, Led Zeppelin for their first album released in 1969.
@@jameskennedy721 Anne Bredon sued Led Zeppelin for credit and won so now newer albums do show her name as a credit so a court of law said she is correct. Maybe you're thinking of Zeppelin's reworking of Gallows Pole which is a centuries old folk song that has been retold in a myriad of variants. It is typically credited as "Traditional" meaning no one is sure who originally wrote it.
@@henriettaskolnick4445 The court case sounds like the Hey Joe song by Hendrix . Some folk singer copywrited it around 1962 , but it was being sung long before he was born . So to a court , he was the composer , but they didnt do much research .
I saw them live in the summer of 1970 and they did this song with most of their other masterpieces (they had just released Led Zeppelin II). I have never been to another concert that good since that day!
The power these older bands conveyed in their lyrics and music. It was a magical time from Zeppelin to Stevie Wonder to Seep Purple we had it all going on. No auto tune crap.
To me Led Zeppelin is like if four G.O.A.T.'s without knowing each other meet on the street corner and decided to form a band! You get this! The best band that ever worked together!
This is and was my granddaughters favorite Led Zepplin song growing up. Now almost 18 and at an art camp she’s wearing her Led Zeppelin shirt. This granny’s so proud.
This song is about the One Ring of Power , from Lord of the Rings , they made it like a love song ... Many songs of Zeppelin were inspired by JJR Tolkien
For me and my siblings, I'm youngest (1966) of 5...listening to Led Zeppelin is going to church.. Two of my brothers have passed away, but I can't help thinking of them every time I hear Led Zeppelin..
Another great track from zep, and this was back in 1969. No pigeon hole for them. From rockabilly to rock with some Spanish and middle Eastern thrown in
The reason that video came out 5 months ago and already has that many views is because that is the official Led Zeppelin TH-cam channel's reissued remaster. 52 years after that song was originally released and.... Yeah
Love this reaction! I love any song from the first Zep album. This one really demonstrates Page and Plant's aim of making music with light and shade, with soft acoustic parts and the loudest, most bombastic rock you've ever heard wallop you, inside and out. If you like this, might I suggest checking out How Many More Times, especially the live TV performance from Danish TV.
Never really thought of as an acoustic guitarist (more a blurry=fingered, shoot-from-the-hit rock machine), Jimmy Page shows some pretty delicate skills on this one. He's up against considerable opposition on the burgeoning British folk and folk rock scene of the time, and you can detect it in his playing.
Absolutely best reaction I've ever seen with you!! Perfectly timed authentic reaction with concentration on the music. You felt that. So did WE. Thanks 😊
Possibly my favorite LZ song. Mellow, then the mighty drums around Plant's screaming vocals. I respect the fact she got really into it at the end realizing what masterpiece it is.
Love seeing your beautiful face reacting to this...these guys are legends...I remember being 13 yrs old hearing this for the first time..gives me chills....keep the reactions up..makes my day young lady cheers from kansas city...
Love how you respect the vibe of the song by feeling it & not interrupting its mood. Your eyes closed are priceless! Love the Xmas set up so cute it looks kind of 70’s with your straight hair too it could pass for a 7o’s video so cute x
i bought the first led zeppelin album the day it came out. i recognized "babe, i'm gonna leave you" from the track listing, from an older joan baez album i had. haha............listen to that sometime!
Get the words to the song. He’s singing about a place called Kashmir and JPJ made the music in his piano sound very Himalayan like. And so the music matched the story PERFECTLY. This group can not be criticized. They were and still are geniuses!!!
Not a breakup song. Although Plant didn't write it , he sung it in the perspective of leaving his wife to tour.
That I you for sharing I can see that after relistening
John and Consuelo: glad you out that debate to rest because despite all that, wow! What a great version. Such power! Just freaking enjoy it. Used to blast this out our dorm windows onto the Quad in college in spring ‘69. It either got thumbs up and dancing or dirty looks.

Totally agreed but in my case it was in in the 80's :) when I was a 12 or 13 and for sure I have never heard anything like Led Zeppelin. It 's the best band ever
Can you imagine someon from 1968 hearing this for the first time? They were wayyy ahead of their time
Never heard anything like it and never will hear again.
Can you imagine someone from 1975 suddenly in 2021 and forced to listen to what we call music now?
@@cbrend22 They would soon wish themselves back in '75 that's for sure lol
Keep in-mind, these guys were 19-23 years old when they produced this GEM of a debut album. THE best band ever, ever.
No one ever talks sbout the unique sounds they created in this song and their music. The song calling in the background. ❤️
I 100% agree. Saw them live in the 70’s. 3 hour show. I’ll never forget. And will be 65 soon. My grandchildren love them too. So proud.
I’ve watched all your Led Zeppelin reactions. You’re learning why so many people consider them the greatest rock band E-V-E-R and there could never be anyone better than them.
As a bass player myself, I appreciate you mentioning the bass! John Paul Jones is a supreme bassist.
I liken the band members to a football team.
Robert Plant is the star quarterback.
Jimmy Page is the flashy, talented wide receiver.
Bonham on drums is the thundering, Hall of Fame running back.
John Paul Jones, though, is the entire offensive line that allows the others to do all that they do.
JPJ is theeeee GOAT. Of all time yup
Hey Ben, I'm a bass player also, and I second this!
When JPJ speaks, we bass players STFU and listen intently.
JPJ, tremendous musician... his playing on "Immigrant Song Live" is astounding...
Hypnotic. Led Zeppelin, the best band EVER.
They have been blowing my mind for over 40 years they are unbelievable and untouchable I'll pay anyone to beat led zeppelin it's impossible greatest band in history of rock and roll
It was so great being a teenager in the 70s we had the best music

@Jeffrey Hinkel It was an innovative time.for sure..
I was born in 71, so missed all this ...
My parents blasted Led Zeppelin, Black Sabbath, Steppenwolf, and Johnny Cash when I was a childunit... This stuff is in my core.
.........childunit.
I was one of the parents always played music my son grew up with our music
Mine did too! I know every band of Classic Rock there is! And I thank my Father for raising me up on amazing music made from raw talent and soul!
Oh my how Led Zeppelin is SO TIMELESS, Zep songs like this man, 50+ years old and STILL can rock the (bleep) out of ya! THAT blows my mind.

LZ always bristles when they are referred to as a Heavy Metal band. They are a Blues-Rock band with an emphasis on the Blues!
@@chip2139 I was referring to each of the band members...plural. Each has stated they do not consider LZ to be a heavy metal band. Satisfied?
GREAT SONG! Is it any wonder that Led Zeppelin is just as popular today as they were in their heyday?

Best band ever period!!!!!!!
4 incredibly talented musicians... no others could perform this and sound like this... just magic.
Covid, what a great time to revisit the GOAT. 50 years later and STILL amazing. Enjoy!
The guitar in this song is supernatural and Robert Plant's voice goes perfectly with it.
I love this song, one of my favorites. Led Zeppelin is badass.
i saw zeppelin at their last concert before john bonham passed away and they p;ayed a 2 hour encore amazing band
My favorite LZ song! I can’t tell you how enjoyable it is to see you enjoy (and recognize) great music!
Mine too!
Same!
I've watched a few of your videos and really enjoyed them, but seeing you enjoy this song has turned me into a subscriber!

A better band never existed...Zep still reigns supreme.
One of my faves by Led Zeppelin. It is very intense and very chill. Back and forth. Love their sound. Full of passion and emotion.
Love to watch the reaction to this masterpiece...one of the greatest songs ever written..& the performance? Well, it's Led Zeppelin...
Your facial expressions on the changes are priceless! Iam in tears!🤣😭

He has a 4 octave voice. that's how he generates those great high notes. Maria Carey also has a multi octave voice. Incredible.
google axl rose vocal range
Octave range doesn't really mean much? Some singers have more, but it all depends how you use your voice really.
My all time favorite Zeppelin song. Heavy and Light. Hope you enjoyed it. Thanks.

Best rock band of all time. I saw them live in Madison Square Garden in 1973. Best concert I ever went to!!!!
Loved your eyes when they began to rock it out. We loved our rock-hard rocks-rock & Blues-punk rock we were deep into our music

I think all that I can say is that you now Looooooove Led-Zeppelin!!!!!✌👍♥️♥️☮
Straight up bad ass rock- no one says BABY like robert plant
This song is about the One Ring of Power , from Lord of the Rings , they made it like a love song ... Many songs of Zeppelin were inspired by JJR Tolkien
True.
Lyrically, Led Zeppelin is pretty straightforward. If the song isn't about LotR, it's usually about sex!
Glad I grew up with this all through the sad times and the great times it was wonderful. Glad you’re listening to it. It’s amazing music.
only one of led zeppelin#s best rock songs
What makes them the greatest??
No song ever sounds the same yet still amazing!
You so real..and I raised my children on Led Zeppelin..song remains the same Madison Square garden..1973
Grew up on zeppelin and floyd etc. 70s and 80s were the best years for music.
Quite possibly the greatest song ever made.
Although you could say that about almost every song LZ has made.
They were fantastic
My fave Zeppelin song,glad you enjoyed it 🎶🤩👍
This was from Led Zeppelin's first album. It's was in their debut performance in 1969, on a Danish television special
I couldn't agree more. ... 'what the fiddlesticks!' ... expresses it perfectly!
One of my favorite songs by Led Zeppelin . I LOVE IT 😍
It's great seeing black Americans..listening to great rock music..that couldn't have created without their ..creativity..
Baddest tune! Love the guitars on this song.
IMO Babe I'm Gonna Leave You will always be their greatest song. The fact it was on their debut tells you how phenomenal this band was.
They never let anyone forget that they are a ROCK band 🎸🎸🎸
For me and my siblings, I'm youngest (1966) of 5...listening to Led Zeppelin is going to church.. Two of my brothers have passed away, but I can't help thinking of them every time I hear Led Zeppelin..
They are the best ever...nobody else comes close!
THEY WERE THE KINGS OF ROCK AND ROLL IN THE 70s THEY have sold over 300 million LPS ,, THE SAME AS QUEEN
Another great track from zep, and this was back in 1969. No pigeon hole for them. From rockabilly to rock with some Spanish and middle Eastern thrown in
Its always great to a beautiful young mind finding old school. Thank you for taking the time....

Maybe the best song on what is probably the best rock album ever recorded. Better on studio albums.
Now you gotta listen to “No Quarter” or “Your Time Is Gonna Come”.
Just great raw talent....no one comes close
Love your reaction. Kinda like ours when we heard it for the first time.

Love all this Zeppelin but this here...my favorite because of Bohnam!
My youth music Led Zeppelin is surely on of my favorites
...Great Reaction...I Hope and Pray that you and yours are well..Jay..AMEN 🌹
Try Going to California by Led Zeppelin, probably one of their least rocking song but really good.

Happy holidays 🎄🎄🎸🎼🎸🎄🎄!!!Great song!!!🎼🎼🎼🎼🎸🎸🎸
Wow that song is absolute murder
Zeppelin concerts were like being on amusement park rides.
I wish I had been old enough to go.
You know what great and phenomenal music is when you listen to rock music is young lady
Many 1970s rock song had lyrics with a message. Another is dust in the wind and hold on by the group Kansas
One of their best tunes and for sure the best on LZ I. I remember when I heard it the first time in the 90's. Goosebumps.
