What do you think of this? I think it is just the best version I have heard. Even brings a tear to one man's eyes. Go to 4.00 for the start. Watch without prejudice.

Saw this before Christmas, just amazing. Loved Heart since Dreamboat Annie, done Crazy On You on and off for over 30 years. Alone is still one of the best pop/rock ballads EVER done!

Who's that on Jimmy's left? Edit: It was David Letterman

Just think the original & best of course was a 3 piece band + singer, how many was that?


Good though :)

Anne Wilson does a pretty good Robert Plant - screeches and inflections... Obviously Zep was a big influence...

Bet the Zeps were delighted to hear this again...

Wow.

This is still the definitive version, though. Topical, too:

Is that not the guy who did some backing vocals for Alison Kraus recently.

Robert Plant, wiping the tear from his eye, is sitting between Jimmy Page and John Paul Jones

And for an extra bit of Led Zep, thats john bonhams son on the drums.
Great cover though!

Well I reckon that was pretty dire! Sorry but Heart did the first bit and the last but all the rest was done by a cast of thousands. It was more west end show than rock and roll. To cap it all you have an audience of penguins gently nodding thier heads to one of the greatest, most powerfull rock tunes ever written.

Never been a fan of Heart as such but yes 'Alone' is brilliant. Great song and boy can they sing etc.

Nah sorry

Pretty sure Plant and JPJ turned to each other and said WOW! whent the choir was revealed in all its glory near the end. You could also see that Page was playing the solo in his head. Overall it certainly looks like they were impressed.

That was quite good - I've never rated Robert Plant so when you have someone who can sing really makes a difference, the choir bit I could do without TBH , I think it takes away the simplicity of the song. Was it me or did the gutiarist miss out a bit in the solo ?
