How many others watched this yelling “THOSE ARE THE MEMBERS OF ZEPPELIN!” Not going to give you too much crap about not recognizing them, the old farts in the rainbow 🌈 necklace things were (left to right) John Paul Jones (zeppelin’s bass player), The Robert Plant (Zeppelin’s singer) and the LEGENDARY Jimmy Page (zeppelin’s guitar 🎸 player)! Imagine the pressure of this performance and HEART ❤️ ROCKED IT! Can’t think of a more fitting band to do Zeppelin 🎸🤘🏼
Yessss! I was yelling it the entire time! Puts an even better experience on watching it when you know that it is Zeppelin in the audience, along with the other details- Jason Bonham, etc..
It is embarrassing how many times I have watched different reactions to this...over and over again...guess what? I will continue 2 watch it over and over again...and again...and again...
Before i die i wan't to see Ann Wilson singing a duet with Floor Jansen, if there is any higher power in this world... make it happen tyvm. Btw i was a good boy last year in case that's of any help.
The Kennedy Center Honors is an annual event celebrating lifetime achievement in the arts, Heart is performing for Led Zeppelin who is being honored, both bands are mutual fans of eachother, they bring Rober Plant to tears, the drummer performing with them is Zeppelin's original drummers son, they are wearing the bowler hats as a tribute to John Bonham who passed away.
The Kennedy Center Awards have beengoi g on since the 70s. It's devoted to honoring cultural achievements in performing arts ...music, dance, acting, singing television and movies. The presidents and first ladies attend. It's a great event. The Trump years changed that...without getting political just a statement of a fact. I don't think Mr Video wants the negative.
There are some other Kennedy Center Honors performances @MrVideo should see. Tributes to Bruce Springsteen by Melissa Etheridge, Billy Joel by Brendan Urie and Carole King by Aretha Franklin come to mind.
I agree , but it upsets me to give the back ground of the music !! I came to watch the reaction of the younger generation to our generation at least mine I don't want to have to look up all this crap when that's your job you're getting paid for it that will make that person respect that band even more just by looking it up !! Sorry I spoke that so there's no punctuation you just have to figure it out but you know what I'm saying
Mr. V- now that you know who everyone actually is- this would be worth a re-watch- Now that you know it’s Led Zeppelin in the audience- and their late drummers son playing on the drums- it’s an even more touching experience when you know- in my opinion- I can never see this too many times- how about a re-do with your all new eyes/perspective ? When you know it’s even more legendary than you originally thought!! Please-😍
! Hard agree!! And that should be in all caps you should react to this with the same eyes I had which is knowing that Zeppelin was there and that Jason Bonham was on the drums it's so moving and again I can watch this over and over again like I said in my original comment this is the best cover of any song ever it's epic even the guys from Zeppelin gave it a standing ovation
Heart, fronted by sisters Ann (vocals) and Nancy Wilson (guitar) have had Led Zeppelin's full support for many years. They mutually admire each other. You should watch the video of Ann Wilson singing the National Anthem at a Seahawks game. It's fierce.
Also, a rewatch knowing that Zepp is Anne and Nancy's all time favorite band,and biggest influence, and have been performing one Led Zeppelin cover in every concert since the 80's , is one of the only bands Led Zeppelin has ever fully endorsed covering their songs, they share a huge amount of respect for eachother as artists, Hearts cover of Battle of Evermore, mind blowing.
"who is that guy?" DUDE! That's Robert Plant himself! along with Jimmy Pag and John Paul Jones! THE LED ZEPPELIN!! The drummer is Jason Bonham, son of JOHN Bonham, the band's drummer who died, effectively bringing Led Zep to an end. No worries, I didn't recognize them at first when I first watched this video either!
I love how they focus on Jimmy Page at the infamous guitar part of the song. He nods in approval that the guy is playing it right. I love it. It warms my heart so much that John Bonham's son Jason played the drums for this performance.
Imagine being respected guitarist Shane Fontayne, being tapped to perform THE INFAMOUS GUITAR SOLO AT A ZEPP TRIBUTE WITH THE MEMBERS IN THE AUDIENCE AND THAT VERY GUITARIST WHO WROTE THESE CHORDS GIVING YOU NODS OF APPROVAL!!! I'd be set for the rest of my life.
Yes!! And the choir and the orchestra were just so KILLER!! Can you imagine being the person responsible for pulling all of this together?! I wonder who it was.
The older gentleman they keep showing are Led Zeppelin!! They are honoring them at the Kennedy Center- Jason Bonham is on the drums- the son of the late John Bonham- drummer for Zeppelin that passed away- Lots of emotion flowing through that place- Robert Plant trying to hold back tears- imagine playing this ICONIC song.. in front of the actual BAND members- as Jamel says- give people their flowers while they’re still here- 🙌🏻❤️✌️
Hands down the absolute best cover ever. Imagine the pressure of performing the signature song in front of one of the greatest bands of all time who are present at your performance. Not to mention the presence of Barack and Michelle Obama dozens of stars including Bonnie raitt and Yo-Yo ma just to mention a few pressure live performance are you kidding me? And they freaking killed it just slayed it.!.!
I read an article that was done with Heart and it said that Heart only practiced this for about 30-45 prior to the live performance!!! Now that tells just how talented Heart is!!!!! Unbelievable!!! Phenomenal performance!!!
The drummer on-stage is the son of Led Zeppelin's original drummer, and is playing his father's drum kit and wearing his bowler hat. ...he's also Robert Plant's godson, and was a complete surprise for the surviving band members when he walked onstage.
"You're messing with a legendary song" is exactly right. We know Ann Wilson's voice can beat any song into submission, but what balls it must take to play the guitar solos on Stairway with Jimmy Page sitting right there watching you.
I’ve heard others say that Jason Bonham performing this night was a surprise to the LZ band members. He’d played with LZ before but they didn’t know he’d be playing this night to honor them.
I never get tired of this video. When the choir starts singing and then seeing Plant, Page and Jones reaction while taking this in, and Jason on the drums.... That's a forever moment. Still get goose bumps every time. ❤️
NO, there's one singer, that's Robert Plant, the other is Jimmy Fcking Page, who formed the band, wrote all the music, composed and produced it, the most iconic riffs in music history, the other "older" man is John Paul Jones, bass player and a man beyond words talent.
You stopped it a bit soon- The last few seconds you see Jason (on drums) salute Zeppelin and they did back to him- as well as Heart- Sooooo- had you known that was Led Zeppelin themselves watching in the audience .. it would have put an even better spin on you experiencing this- just letting you know- Led Zeppelin have been legends for decades- this is when they’re older- so you didn’t recognize them- Robert Plant all serious.. then getting tears always gets me for sure-💜✌️
Hottest musical video on YT probably. Heart sisters were bringing it. Back up vocals and choir were off the wall. Bonham Jr and guitarist were awesome. Just an incredible production overall for the living legends ( mostly) to see and enjoy. The camera of course kept focusing on the remaining members of Led Zeppelin themselves.This was no little gig. This was a monumental masterpiece delivered to some masters of their own.
Heart was an excellent choice to cover this song. They are themselves legends. And to see a standing ovation from the original Led Zeppelin legends - ABSOLUTELY AWESOME!
Those guys are Led Zeppelin, watching Heart perform their song. They were being honored by the Kennedy Center. Kennedy Center Honors are a big deal and a great show, usually an annual event, usually with the President and First Lady in attendance.
Usually. No one wanted to the four years that Trump was there which to me is hilarious yet not cool. It's not about who's the President but all about the music.
@@melissap1575 Can you imagine the mood with Trump present? It would be like attending a funeral. It was the artists who backed out of accepting any honors in those 4 years. A whole lifetime's achievement forever polluted by his presence? Nah. No one wants that.
I came across this channel about a week ago and I think I've already seen all of your videos. You're funny and energetic. And easy on the eyes 😜. I dont know how you're not a million subscribers. My favorite channel! P.S. the men are members of Led Zeppelin
Yes! I said the same- I’d love to see it again with him now that he’s been informed! Makes even more impact when you know who’s who and what’s going on.
You reacted to Heart twice! "Crazy On You" & "Barracuda". Ann has one of the greatest female voices in all Rock & Roll. Time for a refresher of Heart. "MAGIC MAN" is a huge hit & sexy banger. ✍It needs to hit the 2021 list!!
@@kimberlinibambini1988MINE TOO!! She wrote that song about their manager guy she was with pretty sure. Hope Leo checks it out. "Magic Man" always makes me feel some kinda way.
Probably the most goose bump inducing and emotional live performance ever! I love Robert Plant on the verge of breaking down multiple times. I love Anne and Nancy! I love all the hats. Everything is perfect!
This was a really great show for Led Zeppelin tribute. ❤️❤️ Led Zeppelin was inducted into the Kennedy Center.. honors a lot of other artists and speakers. Great shows. There was also, in that show a tribute by Kid Rock and Lenny Kravitz. Those guys...Led Zeppelin-- Robert Plant, Jimmy Page and John Paul Jones. The women on the acoustic guitar is Ann's sister...Heart was Ann and Nancy Wilson and the drummer is the son of John Bonham who died in 1980. And.. Nazareth Love Hurts Nazareth Hair ofthe Dog, a live version so you can see the instrument which includes the cowbell and bagpipe Tone Loc (loke) Wild Thing
Who is that guy??? That is the lead singer and band members of Led Zeppelin who this performance is honoring. The drummer is the son of John Boham, the late drummer of Led Zepplin.
"You can't just cover this song and think you can do anything." That's a fact. Now imagine covering it live in an event honoring the actual members of Led Zeppelin and they're sitting right there seeing you perform it next to the Obamas! Those are the old dudes they kept showing.
I’ve watched this performance a lot and I ALWAYS get goosebumps! As soon as I see Robert Plant tear up I’m like 🥺 amazing tribute from Jason to his late father John (the drummer!)
The guys in the balcony are Led Zeppelin. It's their song. The drummer on stage is Jason, the son of their late drummer John. They've known him since he was a baby. He's wearing his father's hat.
This is Heart....a very talented sisters...Ann and Nancy.....they are one of the first female rock and roll groups in the 70 and 80’s.I listen to all their stuff.Judy D.
The three men that you keep seeing in the audience are the members of Led Zeppelin, Jimmy Page, Robert Plant and John Paul Jones. The two women are Heart Ann and Nancy Wilson. This was a tribute concert to Led Zeppelin.
Aww you are loved because you are precious. You keep our spirits up without knowing what we went through that day. And your reactions are great. Keep up the good work. ☺️🤙
My favorite part of this video is the look on Jimmy Page's have when the solo starts. Like the coach cheering you on from the sidelines. "Yes! You can do it! I believe in you!"
The guys in the balcony with the rainbow ribbons on are the surviving members of Led Zepplin. John Bonham, their drummer who has passed, was represented by the dude on drums, his son.
I cannot believe you haven't seen this. I CANNOT wait. OMG ... so I might have to watch later when I have a big fatty with me. I am so excited. YAY .. .I know you are gonna love it.
I never noticed this until this time, but Robert says Oh My God to JPJ when the whole choir comes out with the boilers on. Still love Jimmy's face during the come out of the solo.
That "guy" and the other two are Led Zeppelin, the band that made this song a classic. The drummer playing is the son of John Bonham, the deceased drummer of Led Zeppelin. So yeah, this pretty amazing!
WOW. Chills. Full body chills. She is bringing down the angels with her hand movements. And it shows. Now that you know who the guys are and the drummer, CHILLS. I am so glad you are learning about the best music EVER!!
Im crying 😂”Who are those old dudes. They gotta be famous or something.” That’s Led Zeppelin, this is their song, and this concert is a tribute to THEM. Ayo
Anne Wilson was the singer. Her sister, playing the guitar, is Nancy Wilson. Nancy said she was about to faint because she was about play in front of Jimi Page, (guitarist for Zeppelin). They did an amazing job and the members of Zeppelin loved it!
The ladies are Ann and Nancy Wilson of Heart. Check out Magic Man, Crazy on You and Barracuda. Heart was the first major female led rock band of the 70’s. Ann was 62, (singer) and Nancy was 60ish. Jason Bonham, son of the late John Bonham, played drums for his Dad. The guy in the balcony were John Paul Jones, bass player, Robert Plant, vocals and Jimmy Paige, lead guitar of Led Zeppelin. They were one of several artists being honored at Kennedy Center Honors 2012. Several artists are honored each year for their contributions to the arts. The sitting President always attends. It’s a big deal.
That was Led ZeppelIin watching Ann Wilson singing and her sister Nancy Wilson the blonde on the acoustic guitar of the band Heart ❤ The sisters and Led Zeppelin have been friends since the 60s and still are. Led Zeppelin is John Paul Jones bass guitar, Robert Plant singer, Jimmy Page lead guitar, John Bonham drums RIP. The man playing the drums is Jason Bonham the son of John Bonham RIP . John started teaching his son Jason how to play at a very young age, and the drums Jason Bonham is playing are his fathers, and he is wearing his dad's hat. I think it was great that they had the back up singers wearing a hat just like the late drummer. I think John Bonham would be very proud. I wish you would have watched the ending, but you cut it off. Much love to you and your family. I have seen Heart in concert and they are amazing.
"The Kennedy center honors" is a rabbit hole in itself of content! So many artists honored from every genre. Legends performing for legends! The concerts for Cher and Julie Andrew's are fabulous
First thing, I'm glad to you finally know that we appreciate the time we take to entertain us. As a fan I tell people about your channel and recommend that when they feel down to watch. It will a difference for the better in their day. They have all agreed. The second thing is that Ann and Nancy ( Heart )love Led Zeppelin. They were honored to perform this classic for them at the Kennedy Center Honors with the members in attendance. Imagine the pressure they were under. They were never ever able to do this for their other heroes, the Beatles. But Paul McCartney and Ringo Starr know. You are loved Leo. Keep on Truckin' as we used to sayin the 7o's.
I love how much fun you had listening to this....it was contagious! This cover was phenomenal! I can only imagine how nervous everyone was to preform this song in front of the legends who created it!
Never underestimate Ann and Nancy Wilson. Period. Heart is on a whole other level.
Exactly!! I fell in love with Ann the first time I heard "Magic Man"!
@@jennhurl I remember the first time I heard that! My mind was blown. Ann's voice gives me chills. She's so underappreciated
@@Jahani31 Is she? Naah... everybody knows the Heart Sisters
@@pilargonzalez8442 I mean, everyone clearly doesn't, but ok, lol.
Ann's voice is always amazing, and Nancy is one of the best hard rock guitarists ever, regardless of gender.

The rainbow "necklaces" are actually awards for their induction into The Kennedy Center Honors. They have actual medallions 🏅🏅

I was yelling it too lol

I would like to add ... Ann was 62 years old when she belted this out.
Another fab piece of info from reading these comments. Thank you xx

The drummer is Jason bonham who is the son on John bonham the drummer for Led Zeppelin
I did not know that thank you.
This song gives me chills no matter who sings it, but damn, Heart is killing it! Love love

and so was the background choir.
I got chills in the beginning but I cried when Jason Bonham looked up to heaven.
Me!
It's also his drum set
Man, they really nailed this. It's the only Stairway cover that Zeppelin's own Robert Plant said he liked more than the original.

I've been WAITING for this!!!!!! i jumped off a work call early just so i could watch it now 😂😂
You reacted to Heart twice! "Crazy On You" & "Barracuda". Ann has one of the greatest female voices in all Rock & Roll. Time for a refresher of Heart. "MAGIC MAN" is a huge hit & sexy banger. ✍It needs to hit the 2021 list!!
Yes! Magic Man is my favorite of theirs!!
@@kimberlinibambini1988MINE TOO!! She wrote that song about their manager guy she was with pretty sure. Hope Leo checks it out. "Magic Man" always makes me feel some kinda way.
Yep and Gracie Slick
2 of the beat female vocalists. Anne and Stevie nicks
@@MissTorix agreed! I absolutely LOVE Stevie Nicks!!
That’s Led Zeppelin being honored, that’s Led Zeppelin watching them sing their song!
Probably the most goose bump inducing and emotional live performance ever! I love Robert Plant on the verge of breaking down multiple times. I love Anne and Nancy! I love all the hats. Everything is perfect!
Two of the best women in rock!! Heart ❤ are the shit, they're EVERYTHING
You already like that minx of a vocalist...she’s your ‘Barraaa....cuda’.
Yeah Leo - that's your 'cheerleader' from the 'Barracuda' reaction...
This was a really great show for Led Zeppelin tribute. ❤️❤️ Led Zeppelin was inducted into the Kennedy Center.. honors a lot of other artists and speakers. Great shows.
There was also, in that show a tribute by Kid Rock and Lenny Kravitz.
Those guys...Led Zeppelin-- Robert Plant, Jimmy Page and John Paul Jones. The women on the acoustic guitar is Ann's sister...Heart was Ann and Nancy Wilson and the drummer is the son of John Bonham who died in 1980.
And..
Nazareth Love Hurts
Nazareth Hair ofthe Dog, a live version so you can see the instrument which includes the cowbell and bagpipe
Tone Loc (loke) Wild Thing
Awwwww- 😍 the little music box! ❤️
He was so genuinely happy with it !🥰
"IKNOW THEY ARE SUPPOSED TO BE SOMBODY FAMOUS. I LOVE THIS GUY. MR. VIDEO.
Ann and Nancy Wilson rocked it back in the 70's.....my prime! She has an amazing voice....damn!
Just think if Led Zeppelin had that choir in 1973 live backing them up , That would blow this out of the state lol
Who is that guy??? That is the lead singer and band members of Led Zeppelin who this performance is honoring. The drummer is the son of John Boham, the late drummer of Led Zepplin.
"You can't just cover this song and think you can do anything." That's a fact. Now imagine covering it live in an event honoring the actual members of Led Zeppelin and they're sitting right there seeing you perform it next to the Obamas! Those are the old dudes they kept showing.
💗 💖 💘 💝 💟 ☮️
I’ve watched this performance a lot and I ALWAYS get goosebumps! As soon as I see Robert Plant tear up I’m like 🥺 amazing tribute from Jason to his late father John (the drummer!)
Such a wonderful tribute to these three men that watched it...
Ann Wilson is the queen of rock PERIOD❤
Great band......this is a tribute to the men who originally wrote and performed this song. Just awesome.
“Who are those people?”
😂
Yo.... lmao gotta love that shit... that’s ol grandpa down the road....
Main man
The guys in the balcony are Led Zeppelin. It's their song. The drummer on stage is Jason, the son of their late drummer John. They've known him since he was a baby. He's wearing his father's hat.
nailing that famous guitar solo in front of them, man that needs some serious balls!
This is Heart....a very talented sisters...Ann and Nancy.....they are one of the first female rock and roll groups in the 70 and 80’s.I listen to all their stuff.Judy D.
The three men that you keep seeing in the audience are the members of Led Zeppelin, Jimmy Page, Robert Plant and John Paul Jones. The two women are Heart Ann and Nancy Wilson. This was a tribute concert to Led Zeppelin.
Aww you are loved because you are precious. You keep our spirits up without knowing what we went through that day. And your reactions are great. Keep up the good work. ☺️🤙
Ann Wilson is the singer, Nancy Wilson is the guitarist. They are sisters. My favorite cover of all time.
My favorite part of this video is the look on Jimmy Page's have when the solo starts. Like the coach cheering you on from the sidelines. "Yes! You can do it! I believe in you!"
Robert Plant was a little teary-eyed listening to this.
Me too!! As always....
THIS IS WHY THE 70s are the Greattest decade ever RELEASD IN 1971
He later said he was crying because he missed his best friend
The guys in the balcony with the rainbow ribbons on are the surviving members of Led Zepplin. John Bonham, their drummer who has passed, was represented by the dude on drums, his son.
I cannot believe you haven't seen this. I CANNOT wait. OMG ... so I might have to watch later when I have a big fatty with me. I am so excited. YAY .. .I know you are gonna love it.
LOL I know how you feel;in
i did the same!
I LOVE you Mr. Video!!! Geezus you are the best!!
Ann has always been a Monumental talent. Amazing that she out sang a whole choir!! Been a Heart fan forever!
Bloody Love Heart❤This was Bloody Brilliant & her Voice is Amazing👌❤
I never noticed this until this time, but Robert says Oh My God to JPJ when the whole choir comes out with the boilers on. Still love Jimmy's face during the come out of the solo.
That "guy" and the other two are Led Zeppelin, the band that made this song a classic. The drummer playing is the son of John Bonham, the deceased drummer of Led Zeppelin. So yeah, this pretty amazing!
Loved your reaction...we just witnessed greatness...I always tear up and goosebump up whenever I watch this performance...as good as it gets...
I always get choked up when I see Jason behing the drums wearing his dads bowler hat, and when the choir appears with the hats. Long live John Bonham.
You gotta luv a man who loves his music.
You, Sir, are near ledgendary in our house. Keep on doin what you doin!
I've never seen this! I love Heart and watching Led Zeppelin watch her and Obama! That was just wow! 🔥
WOW. Chills. Full body chills. She is bringing down the angels with her hand movements. And it shows. Now that you know who the guys are and the drummer, CHILLS. I am so glad you are learning about the best music EVER!!
“they’ve gone stupid!!” Lol... So glad you enjoyed it. EPIC! 🤗
Im crying 😂”Who are those old dudes. They gotta be famous or something.” That’s Led Zeppelin, this is their song, and this concert is a tribute to THEM. Ayo
Anne Wilson was the singer. Her sister, playing the guitar, is Nancy Wilson. Nancy said she was about to faint because she was about play in front of Jimi Page, (guitarist for Zeppelin). They did an amazing job and the members of Zeppelin loved it!
The ladies are Ann and Nancy Wilson of Heart. Check out Magic Man, Crazy on You and Barracuda. Heart was the first major female led rock band of the 70’s. Ann was 62, (singer) and Nancy was 60ish. Jason Bonham, son of the late John Bonham, played drums for his Dad. The guy in the balcony were John Paul Jones, bass player, Robert Plant, vocals and Jimmy Paige, lead guitar of Led Zeppelin. They were one of several artists being honored at Kennedy Center Honors 2012. Several artists are honored each year for their contributions to the arts. The sitting President always attends. It’s a big deal.
Bro that's Robert Plant, John Paul Jones, and Jimmy Page sitting up on the balcony.. come on now. BTW that's Jason Bonham playing drums.
That was Led ZeppelIin watching Ann Wilson singing and her sister Nancy Wilson the blonde on the acoustic guitar of the band Heart ❤ The sisters and Led Zeppelin have been friends since the 60s and still are. Led Zeppelin is John Paul Jones bass guitar, Robert Plant singer, Jimmy Page lead guitar, John Bonham drums RIP. The man playing the drums is Jason Bonham the son of John Bonham RIP . John started teaching his son Jason how to play at a very young age, and the drums Jason Bonham is playing are his fathers, and he is wearing his dad's hat. I think it was great that they had the back up singers wearing a hat just like the late drummer. I think John Bonham would be very proud. I wish you would have watched the ending, but you cut it off. Much love to you and your family. I have seen Heart in concert and they are amazing.
I think Anne was 62 when she sang this. Faultless
Hello from Cody Wyoming! You're one of my favorite reactors... please never stop🤠
"The Kennedy center honors" is a rabbit hole in itself of content! So many artists honored from every genre. Legends performing for legends! The concerts for Cher and Julie Andrew's are fabulous
First thing, I'm glad to you finally know that we appreciate the time we take to entertain us. As a fan I tell people about your channel and recommend that when they feel down to watch. It will a difference for the better in their day. They have all agreed. The second thing is that Ann and Nancy ( Heart )love Led Zeppelin. They were honored to perform this classic for them at the Kennedy Center Honors with the members in attendance. Imagine the pressure they were under. They were never ever able to do this for their other heroes, the Beatles. But Paul McCartney and Ringo Starr know. You are loved Leo. Keep on Truckin' as we used to sayin the 7o's.
I love how much fun you had listening to this....it was contagious! This cover was phenomenal! I can only imagine how nervous everyone was to preform this song in front of the legends who created it!
The singer.....Anne Wilson.....the most UNDERRATED female vocalist in music.
Acoustic guitarist....Nancy Wilson....yes, they're sisters
and those ladies are rock legends themselves, rock goddesses Ann and Nancy Wilson of Heart, the first ever female fronted heavy metal rock band.
The Singers name is Ann Wilson and the female guitarist is her sister Nancy. They have been around forever. They are Legendary in their own right.
