John Cellario Posted July 19, 2013 Posted July 19, 2013 Superb version, however old the original. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mf2O3OAQjng Quote
Bassman Sam Posted July 19, 2013 Posted July 19, 2013 Wow. What a great version and line up. Thanks for posting. Quote
flyfisher Posted July 19, 2013 Posted July 19, 2013 Classic rock indeed and very moving watching their reactions. In fact, I think I've got something in my eye after watching that. Thanks for posting! Quote

RhysP Posted July 19, 2013 Posted July 19, 2013 I'm no Zeppelin fan but credit where credit is due that is a great, timeless song. Ann & Nancy Wilson are a class act. Must have been especially poignant for Robert, Jimmy & John to have Jason Bonham on stage playing his fathers old kit too. Even a cynical old sod like me got a bit misty eyed watching that. Quote
uncle psychosis Posted July 19, 2013 Posted July 19, 2013 Thats a very good version, and it must have been very emotional for them all. A good tribute. But, on a different note, I have to admit I've never seen the attraction to Stairway. LZ have dozens of better songs in my opinion. Quote
BetaFunk Posted July 19, 2013 Posted July 19, 2013 I've felt like crying every time i've heard that song. Quote
KevB Posted July 19, 2013 Posted July 19, 2013 Anne's still got some pipes on her but I wish she'd have taken her coat off, looked like she had a bus to catch or something On another note, is it just me or is Plant starting to look a bit like the bloke who was Hitler in 'Downfall' ? Quote

booboo Posted July 20, 2013 Posted July 20, 2013 Sometimes liking a particular bit of music just doesn't matter. This video is worth watching just to see the connection that music can make between people. Quote

lou24d53 Posted July 20, 2013 Posted July 20, 2013 The full 20 minute segment is worth a watch as well... [url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rOy5TCB9JMw"]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rOy5TCB9JMw[/url] Quote
bonzodog Posted July 20, 2013 Posted July 20, 2013 Amazing version. Never seen that clip before, thanks. I don't get why people don't like Stairway, Led Zep have done dozens of amazing songs, and I think Stairway is up there with the best. I can only assume its because its been heard so many times and become a bit stereotypical of air guitar rock, but if you forget about all that and listen to it intensely it is a beautiful song..

whizzzy Posted July 20, 2013 Posted July 20, 2013 Just superb. It takes a lot of courage to perform such an iconic song in front of the masters themselves and to see all three of them touched in such a way speaks volumes. A job well done by all involved. Thanks for posting. Quote
wateroftyne Posted July 20, 2013 Posted July 20, 2013 (edited) I'll be the dissenter, then. I've watched it a few times. Yeah, the display of emotion is nice, but I just don't like the arrangement. It's too overblown. Oh, and if the Led Zeppelins - or anyone who covers this song - is reading this... FINISH THE SONG ON THE SOLO VOCAL! It doesn't need the usual tag on the end. I wish people wouldn't do it. Yes, even you, Led Zeppelins. Edited July 20, 2013 by wateroftyne Quote
