This performance is a religious experience for me every time I watch it.
Ann Wilson was not only 62 years old when she sang this but she also had the flu. Robert Plant said afterward that this was the only performance of "Stairway to Heaven" he's ever liked.
When Jimmy Page is smiling at your cover of his solo, you know that you've arrived! 🙂
And when you make Robert Plant cry...
You just watched the greatest cover in the history of music .. Rock legends performing in front of the Gods ... and they slayed it
If you don't get choked up when listening to this do you even have a heart?! Even Robert Plant, who has said that he hates this song, had tears in his eyes. The drummer is Jason Bonham, son of the late LZ drummer John Bonham. The bowler hats that the choir and Jason were wearing was also a tribute to John who loved to wear them. Every single thing about this performance is epic! So was your reaction. ❤️
YES!!! He absolutely hates most covers of the song but i had heard that he called them "Brilliant"
Wouldn't you hate it when you've heard your song butchered tens of thousands of times? (okay, I'm sure he didn't personally hear most of those, but just knowing it has been...)
They didn't know that Jason was going to be drumming with Heart. That part was kept a secret and part of the reason they were so emotional.
@@Wiley_Coyote understandably...not many can do a cover justice..well...except for Heart and PTX of course :P
Ann Wilson was put on this planet to sing rock & roll! Her voice still pierces my soul when I listen to their music. & this song is the definition of the word classic.
in my opinion, Ann Wilson is the best female rock vocalist ever - she is always outstanding
One of the greatest rock vocalists, ever.
One of for sure...throw in Joan Jett and Janis Joplin. What's also amazing about Ann is she still has her voice at 72🤯..just an outstanding talent.
Second only to Linda Ronstadt to me. the Wilson sisters are american treasures. As is Linda, the pride of Tucson AZ.
@@cellagp321 They are not even in the same league as Ann
@@88pjtinkamen love them all❤
Jimmy page was absolutely loving it and Robert Plant was almost in tears. Amazing cover and tribute.
Almost a decade later and this is still the best cover I have ever seen of a song.
It's tribute not a cover.
NOT ENOUGH IS EVER SAID ABOUT NANCY WILSONS INTRO ON THE GUITAR ITS SPOT ON
I get chills EVERY TIME that choir comes in, LOVE IT! This performance is everything
Heart is one of the all time best and to sing a Led Zeppelin song another of the best 🥰💖😃🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹
Have watched this many times!! Only HEART could have done it justice! Greatest female rock ladies ever!! TeRs evert time!!
EPIC! It is my favorite live performance ever. But every element is vital: the soft acoustic intro, Ann’s voice, the orchestration mix of classical and rock instruments, the first and second choir, the build up, that visceral scream, the tribute, the respect... yes, truly epic. 🥰🤗
“Insanely great” barely describes such an out-of-this-world performance. I agree, it’s the greatest performance I’ve ever seen.
This is my hands down favorite performance of all time. From the production to the execution….simply flawless. I could watch this 1,000 in a row and get chills EVERY SINGLE TIME!!!
I remember watching this when it first aired on television years ago, just hoping that my friends were tuned in also. I've lost count on how many times I've watched the video since then, and it still gives me goosebumps. Quite simply, the best cover of any song ever done.
Same
The drummer is Jason Bonam, the son of LZs original drummer John who past away in 1980.....he is also Godson of Robert Plant.... He was invited by RP to attend this and told him he had a prior engagement and apparently made RP kinda angry....so it was a huge surprise to see him come out and also wearing the Bowler Hat of his father .... and the choir wore them as well in tribute
Ann Wilson was 62 years old for this performance and she absolutely lilled it. I think she may have made you eat your words a bit about performers losing their voices as they age. She certainly had not.
I said most she and she did not ….
Yep, I was laughing while he was talking…🤣.
@@susanpeterson9947 I was just waiting for the look on his face!
@@nolaknowles9888 he clearly said Ann had not lost her voice so she must take care of it.
Totally agree!!! Absolutely one of the best voices and ROCKER CHICKS ever!!!🎵🎼🎶🎸🥁🎤🎵
One of the most amazing live performances ever! Epic and spiritual!
And with Led Zepplin watching over!
“This is coming to a peak. I can FEEL it!” Oh yeah bro, is it EVER. Peak of the century!!
At the after party LZ came up to Heart and told them they loved the cover they did and that Heart now has LZ's permission to do a cover of any of their songs
Doing that tribute in front of the members of the greatest band of all time (in my humble opinion) with John Bonham's son, Jason Bonham on drums had to be mind blowing experience. 🔥🔥💯
I agree, one of the greatest performances I have ever seen.Very emotional.
Great reaction. One of the best performances. Worthy of bringing Robert Plant to tear up!
I love how Anns voice cracks when she holds that long note towards the end. This is such perfection!
It IS Awsome.
That "crack" is carefully orchestrated. Notice it doesn't happen on the way INTO the note - but at the end as she's coming out of it. It gives the "roll" that final punch of drama. There are no flies on Ann Wilson. She knows exactly what she's doing by letting her voice crack like that. She was pitch perfect up to that point. Thinking a "crack" is a "crack" is a mistake. LOL!. She should have gotten an Emmy for that performance. Too bad there was no album of the event because she deserved a Grammy as well.
This performance took place at the 2012 Kennedy Center Honors, so just about nine years ago. After the performance Robert Plant stated that he HATES covers of Stairway... except this one. The electric guitarist is Shane Fontayne who has toured with just about everybody and for several years was the bandleader for the Kennedy Center Honors. The drummer you see is Jason Bonham, son of original Led Zep drummer John Bonham. The other Kennedy Center Honor song you need to check out is from the 2015 honors for Carole King when Aretha Franklin sang "Natural Woman" and brought the house down. Even President Obama teared up a little bit.
If you notice, the choir members are all wearing bowler hats, as is Jason Bonham on drums, in tribute to his late father John Bonham
OMG dude Tears!!! Ann Wilson is a legend and this CHOIR omg.
Always brilliant no matter how many times you hear it. The best cover of any song ever.
Ok I’ve seen Heart in concert 3 times in 3 different decades (showing my age) . Ann Wilson is a rock Goddess! Met her & Nancy once & just the nicest people! When I first saw this there definitely were tears. So sorry for Ann for all the body shaming she had to go through in the 80s . She was & always will be beautiful & a legend! She’s still rockin’ at age 71! Just had a tour in ‘21!
I was 3 years old when this song was first released by Led Zeppelin!!! It is ingrained in my psyche. This version is the only other Acceptable version!!!! Heart did the original absolute justice!!!!
I’ve probably watched this video more than 100 times and it’s on my playlist also. This moves me EVERY SINGLE TIME. It’s a piece of art. Brilliant! (Love your reactions!!) Edited to say: I agree with you 100%. I also feel like this is the best performance I’ve ever seen of anything in my life…and I’m old. Lol!
Every time I watch this performance and see Jason look up to heaven I get a little tear in my eye. Every time! Bonzo would be so proud of his son!
IMHO, the greatest tribute of all time. At least from what I've seen.
Jason looking up to heaven to his dad at the end always ends up bringing me to tears. He did amazing on his dads drums and playing his dads part.
Holy Moly!!! Thanks for turning me on to this. Wowzer
I saw this video for the first time a couple months ago, and like you I was floored by how great it was performed. I had tears in my eyes by the time it ended. “Stairway to Heaven” is and will always be one of the best pieces of music ever written (can’t just call it a song)… and this was one of the best performances of a piece of music ever… brings be back so many memories, originally came out in 1971 the year I graduated high school and started college (one of the best years for music ever). As always, love your reactions… this one was special… thank you for doing this one.
🙂 Enjoyed your reaction. Ann was 62 years-old old at this performance. Eddie Trunk asked Ann how she keeps her vocals in such good shape after all these decades. Her answer was so simple. She said, "I stay in my key."
Simply the best rendition I've ever heard period!
YES!!!!! someone finally recognized Bonnie Raitt! I have been waiting.....and this is likely the single greatest music video on you tube. just, period. Glad you could appreciate just how sick it really was.
Bonnie!! 🦚💜
after all the great Zepplin song, Robert Plant did not want this one song to define them. Thats why he showed little reaction at first. By the end he was smiling and clapping. It was such a great performance
What a set of pipes on Ann 😱 and at 62yo.. you can really hear the maturity and depth in her voice in that it is, in a word, "Seasoned" 🤷.. absolutely sensational.. the perfect choice to tribute, arguably the greatest rock song of all time by the greatest rockers of all time.. the reaction on the old boys faces say it all!! 🤘🤘
This is one of my favorite reactions ever.
This is absolutely the best version of all time other than the original.
Beautiful reaction, Travis!!!!!!! I knew you would feel the way you do!!!!!!💙💙💙
Exactly! Chills!
You described it perfectly. One of the Greatest voices paying tribute to one of the Greatest Rock bands. Annie Wilson, and her sister knocked this out of the park. They know how to bring music to Life.
Best voice and quitarist ever. And so natural no Auto tune
Wow his performance had me tear up!! Great reaction!!👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Nailed it! When that choir hits, goosebumps!
Performing Zeppelin in front of Zeppelin!!!!! Legendary performance! I think you should check out the live performance of Luciano Pavorati and James Brown's. IT'S A MAN'S WORLD! The performance is another masterpiece!
Not a performance, a peak life experience. Beethoven's 9th with full choir, the 1812 overture with cannons, and Stairway to Heaven with Ann Wilson.
The Wilson sisters are AMAZING
Love you 💞 Heart. Best female band EVER!! Seen them 3 times live. Love you ❤️ love your reaction videos. Keep the great work ❤️😃😃😃
Crying is an appropriate response to this performance. It's phenomenal 🔥❤⭐👏🏾❣
Ann was 62 here. That voice !!!!!! Her voice has held up because she doesn’t OVERSING which is so popular nowadays.
Heart has always covered Zeppelin, btw.
I remember seeing this on the Kennedy Center Honors broadcast years ago and I’ve re-watched it countless times -- chills every time! Thanks for another great reaction!
The drummer is the son of the original LZ drummer
That would make sense! I was wondering why he seemed so emotional !
@@TeaTimeWithTravis You should check out Adam Lambert doing Cher's 'Believe' at the Kennedy Center. It is otherworldly the way he reimagined it. It even brought Cher to tears.
@@TeaTimeWithTravis Its also funny that Robert invited Jason to join him and his other "uncles" John and Jimmy in the balcony. Jason apologized and said unfortunately he had a previous commitment. In a slightly different version of this, they introduce Jason and Robert points at him like "I see what you did there!!!" So some of Plant's emotion was seeing his best friend's son in his dad's bowler playing his dad's drum kit. And killing it.
Jason was not just wearing his dad's hat, he he was also playing his dad's drums is dad started teaching him the drums at a very young age..Ann and Nancy have been friends with LZ since the 60s. Brandi Modrak XOXO, XOXO means hugs and Kisses to you and your family.
Man, when Jason looks up at 11:35 on that last Heaven…🥺
Welcome to the greatness! I don't know anyone who doesn't feel like you did!
OH, and you are the FIRST I've seen STOP and play back Ann's last belt "ROLL!"
I think this is the best reaction I have watched to this video! I am absolutely OBSESSED with this performance!! Yours if my favourite because it is literally my reaction! 😂🙌🏼 all hail Queen Ann! 👑💖
I'm glad you picked up on that scream. Awesome. When you were talking about losing range I thought just wait buddy.
I remember seeing this live in tv everyone in the room including myself basically had a jaws dropping to the floor . We all said holy shit when she held the rock and to just roll line ! Still I get goosebumps!
Stumbled across your reaction video. Thanks for giving Ann and Nancy the mad respect they deserve!! Never liked this song until they did it. It’s my fave live performance of all time!
"AND IT MAKES ME WONDER"
Ann Wilson ROCKS. Nothing else to say. 😄🎵🎶🎤🎸
The layers. Perfection
I love, love, love this reaction! I liked it so much I watched it twice in a row.
to be over 60+ and to as powerful and precise as Ann Wilson is is amazing......
I've always loved Heart. This performance was epic. Thank you for reacting to it. ❤️
Come to Jesus moment!!! Can you imagine being in that audience??? WOW!! The best ever!!
That intro guitar is perfect!
Great reaction. I grew up with Led Zep and this was one of my favorite songs. This tribute really did it justice...and you're right - she still sounds amazing.
Anne Wilson and Jonny Farnham both have matured very well and still hold most of their vocal range as they never stopped using it
The BEST ever...........
Didn’t want to end
I've watched 20 plus reactions to this EPIC performance.. Yours is the best. I think you ALMOST loved it as much as me.
I wasn't going to subscribe to any more reactors, but, damn, you're good!
Looking forward to more!
We’ve all cried on this cover! Ever single time we watch it. And we know what is about to wrap us up!
I’ve said it before and it appears a lot of people agree. They blew the roof off. Only a few people in the world can do this song justice. Ann is one of them.
Also, check out some Robert Plant music when he teams up with Alison Krause. I call them the odd couple but they are amazing together!
My favorite LZ song ! Heart rocked this out ! Great reaction Travis as always. 💜💙💕💞💛💚
The best cover of all time. Jason on drums was magic.
Great reaction! What a moment this must have been for everyone in that room! A memory for a lifetime! Loved your enthusiasm for an epic performance of a legendary song! Definitely, one of the best performances ever!
Great reaction, bro. We've all teared up while watching this video for the exact reasons that you stated, and including the reaction of the Led Zeppelin members. My first time watching your channel, and it was a fun experience. Keep up the good work. Subscribed.
Thanks for subbing !
First, you're adorable!
B, I love that moment that everyone's eyes pop out! 🤘😎
Zeppelin was familiar with Heart covering their songs. Heart customarily played a Zeppelin song during the encores in their own concerts. I watched them play Rock& Roll to the one I went to, and they killed it. I don't know for sure but would think that was a strong consideration into choosing them as the front runner for this tribute. I was really impressed by her performance here, and then when I found out she was 62 here, it even made it that much greater.
Right?? Emotions abound. 🤘🏼🤘🏼
Fabulous !
I watched your reaction and many other reaction videos to this song. It is amazing how many people mentioning crying, tearing up, or a very emotional response to this cover.
I’m obsessed with this cover!!!
This was 9 years today..12-3-12!!!! Her voice gets better with age...just like Gary Brooker (Procol Harum), Klaus Meine (Scorpions), etc!!!!🎵🎼🎶🎸🥁🎤🤘🤘🤘
I never knew Sheldon Cooper played such a mean guitar!! This was a great cover for sure!!
You're right cuz I kept thinking he looks like Sheldon to and nobody else was saying so. That guitarists' mother is Mackenzie Phillips can you believe it???
Love that performance! Holds me in a spell, stunning! Stunning! Thanks for that. Yours will be my fourth time watching that permanent and I can't look away. Thanks again. Peace love and blessings to you!
There are only a couple of women’s voices capable of covering this song, Beth Hart and Ann Wilson! This is spectacular ❤️
If you want to hear Ann Wilson's voice at it's peak, greatest, most astoundingly awesome check out Heart's live cover of "Unchained Melody" from a concert in 1980. I could take or leave the song before I heard this cover, but Heart rocked it up a bit and Ann's voice just shutters the stratosphere on it -- live. It's all over youtube, and if you reacted to her voice so highly here you really should check it out. Great reaction!
One of the best reactions, you noticed Ann Wilson’s performance on the belt/growl/climaxe
I choke up every time. Plant nearly despises covers of LZ songs. Heart is close with LZ and they flippin killed it. ♥️☮️
