Me too!😢 Thus I felt his pain 😔. We all say we can't imagine what it's like to lose a child but the truth is we can. That's why we not only feel their pain but most of all we fear it. 💔 May God ✨ 🙏🏼 ✨ have mercy on all who go through this tremendous excruciating pain. I lost my younger brother 2 yrs ago at the age of 59 and I cry like a child almost every day still.
Unfortunately our family knows the loss of a child. Our daughter passed away 10 years ago. It is a gut wrenching, drop to your knees agony. You find you have 2 choices, curl up in a ball or stand up, because your wife and other child or children need you. And your spouse / partner knows you need them. You realize you have to go back to work, school and everybody knows your misfortune. You lose many / most friends because they have children and don’t know what to do or say. You dread the question “ Do you have any children”. As time passes, the gut wrenching pain subsides as you get used to the new unnormal normal. You sit in your car alone and cry, but then see and hear little things in life that you know are messages from Heaven. Life is not easy for everyone, life is a challenge for everyone. Just remember how strong you are and have empathy, sympathy & compassion toward people….try and be a good kind person.
What a beautiful thing to say. My heart goes out to you and your family. Watch and listen for those little messages that remind you of your child. He/she is with you always. God bless you and your family. I wish you well. ❤😊
Remember what he did to George Bush to win a democrat victory by lying to all of America? Actually he should be shunned. Then he does the Barbara Walter all too personal question. "Tell me how your dead kid died, how it feels, you dead kid, talk..." Nasty fake news bully.
I have nothing but admiration and respect for this legend of a man. He's been through it all but never succumbed to self-pity or rested on his laurels.
Well Said! I think very highly of Robert, too. He’s such a classy well spoken man, love watching his interviews. What a fabulous musician in ALL - of his band(s) “incarnations.”
@fingerprint5511 Yeah, back in the coke fuelled hedonistic 70's all mega rocks stars took advantage of women. Robert is fundamentally a good man and a lot less worse than others.
That must be the most frank and sincere I've ever seen Plant in an interview. Kudos to the interviewer for his tact and for allowing Plant time to speak.
Dan Rather used to host the CBS evening news for decades. He was also great with quips that made you laugh during election nights. I love how he carefully worded the questions to be respectful and leave it open if Robert wanted to answer it. All of the ones I've seen him interview are familiar with him, and excited to be interviewed by him as well.
I've been a Robert Plant and Led Zeppelin fan for a million years.... I have to say that I don't recall Plant opening up quite like that about his first born son. I'm a bit surprised by it. I'm also glad he spoke about it. It's so heartbreaking but important to note. ❤
He didn't have to speak about it, you could see a huge change in him after it happened. He still carried on, but you could tell Zeppelin didn't mean as much to him anymore.
@@californiamagpie He's an elitist who attends Bohemian Grove and pushes the fake Climate Change Agenda. Not a good guy. You are the carbon he wants to see exterminated.
Losing 3 of my kids in my 53 years on earth was the hardest thing to ever experience. 1 to SIDS, and 2 to overdoses....the pain never goes away, it just comes and goes in waves.
I once met Mr Plant in Ft Lauderdale and had a chance to speak with him. It was in a hotel bar with his family. He was super nice and gracious. I mentioned my brother produced him in concert and I mentioned my English brother and he knew who he was. He’s still a lovely man. God bless him and his family ! 🙏🏻
Dan Rather is a class act. His compassionate nature, kind tone, and the fact that he REALLY listens makes him a gem on an interviewer. Seeing him having a chat with Robert Plant about such a sensitive topic was really moving. A great interview - thank you!
@@KittyGrizGriz He's been a journalist since the early 60s. He reported from Dallas in November 1963 at the time that President John F. Kennedy was assassinated. And then promoted at CBS News, where he served as White House correspondent beginning in 1964. In the 80s through 2005 he hosted the CBS Evening News.
I lost my youngest son suddenly November 11, 2023! My life is filled with profound sadness! There are no words of sympathy or condolence that can comfort me, I will just live with this pain til I will see him again! I love you Robert Plant and have always been a huge fan of Led Zeppelin! Keep Rockin Robert! You’ve brought joy to so many of us lost souls! God bless you and your family!💖🙏🏻
I'm sorry for your loss. That must be the worst kind of loss a person can go through. I hope that while you will never get over this death, you will find meaning and purpose in your life enough to go through happily. Take care of your health and reach out to caring people. Love to you.
My only (adult) daughter was murdered 20+ years ago. I was in therapy at the time -- thank goodness. My therapist let me cry for a couple of months. Then she said: "You can grieve for the rest of your life, if you want to. I won't try to stop you. However, if you grieve for the rest of your life -- your daughter will still be dead, and you will be dead too." I chose life. You CAN get through this AND over it. Get some professional help. 💖💖
@@ca8944Unbelievable, I’m so sorry for you and your family. I can’t imagine what that feels like. A whole lot of pain and good memories. It’s a great comfort knowing your child is with God our Father and His Son Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior. God bless you.
And God Bless you Robert Plant. I was fortunate enough to have seen Led Zepplin in concert three times back in the 70’s! My all time favorite band! I still listen to them almost every day!! ❤
@@ca8944 that is devastating….i luckily have three healthy,thriving ones who have all found their thing and are already out and about. You still care about them every minute of the day.All the very best….
Bless you. What a terrible tragedy. I hope you find a pathway forward that honors him and gives you a reason to live and love. So sorry for your huge loss.
Met Mr. Plant in 1989 during his tour supporting his “Now and Zen” album. Not only signed me an autograph and took a photo with me, but talked to me for several minutes in the Peabody Hotel lobby in Memphis, TN. One of the most genuine and wonderful persons I have ever met. A beautiful soul, and he will be reunited with his son in Heaven one day, grateful to have met him during my life journey…..
@@joankuehn4479 Yes! Robert Plant - back when I was a teenager (100 years ago 😂!) - was my 1st crush too; and I still love him & Led Zeppelin to this day ... 🎶 🎤 🎸 🤩 ❣️
I saw this man perform fairly recently at a small intimate gig. I was sat at the front and all the while I wanted to to pinch myself for seeing him right there in front of me and preforming as well as he ever did. What a great musician and humble person he is.
@tasmanndrive LIFE IS IN PHASES FACE IT Don't allow people's results to pull you down. If your mates are making it in life don't envy them celebrate them because its their time.. Because your time has not yet come as far as you are on a project that will announce you letter keep on keeping on. Just like Jesus told he's mother at the wedding ceremony after she told him to turn water into wine he replied that his time has not yet come.. Hear Me: never be on a rush. Keep pushing.. Don't allow others results to bring you down. As far as you don't give up, the world will celebrate you once is your time.. Not all you see on social media are real. Never live your life based on what you see on social media. You are more.. If men reject you today, work on yourself. Tommorw those same men will pay to watch because its your time.. Let me end with this.. Time has a way of rewarding consistency never ever give up.
A lot of interviewers today could take such a lesson here from Dan Rather. Actually listen to the answer to your question… No need to interrupt. No need to turn it around upon yourself. Ask the question and LISTEN to the answer.
What a noble soul! I lost my 2 year old angel to sudden death in 2012 and I don't know how but I realized that life goes on and the only thing that matters is how you choose to live it...
Thank you for the music!! I lost my middle aged son a year ago, he was mentally ill and homeless. We could not force treatment and he was too sick to seek it. My heart is broken.
I lost a grandaughter on christmas eve,2020,she was 9 months old,she was a twin,we still have her sister,my kids were completely lost,as were my husband and I,the only thingwe could do was push aside our own pain and just help them any way that thay needed ,3 yrs later they are better,but our family will never be the same.we just try to pour all the love we have into all of them.
I’ve lost two sons now. I’m so close to my granddaughter, if anything happened to her, I don’t know how I’d cope with it. As a Grandparent I understand how you’ve had to B here to help your family cope. I know I’d be he sane but completely devastated too.
There is no pain like losing a child. It is a heartache that can never be filled. It is on your mind when you go to bed and get up and constantly on your mind in the background. From one who has been here.
He is such a wonderful and humble man! I too lost 2 children, one at 3 1/2 months and the other at 16 years, it is the greatest tragedy a parent could ever go through and no one can even comprehend it unless they’ve gone through it also, we played stairway to heaven at my 16 year old funeral and that one song is what helped me get through the day and every now and then when I’m driving and that song comes on the radio I know my boys are with me
I just lost my mom/I’m 64. We were best friends. I recently heard this song/started to listen to Led Zeppelin. I’m blown away by this group. It has helped me wade through this difficult time in my life. Grief is the worst human emotion to deal with. Kudos to Robert and thanks.
Freddie is the greatest,rock star ,showman and it's official has the best voice in the world and is so handsome,with the greatest personality and He loved cats 💜😃xxx
Anyway you live in America,what would you know , where as I am Scottish and proud of it ,have seen queen in concert and been to Freddies house in London,so suck that up lydon ,shalom 💜🇮🇱😃xxx
One thing that I will always love about rock music in its various forms - classic rock, blues rock, heavy metal, punk rock, post-punk, goth, grunge, etc. - is the willingness to talk about pain and loss. It helped myself and many others get through the years.
I lost my son 15yrs ago, I never had another Child, It is something no parent should have to bury there child, nothing anyone can say to make it better,R.I.P Son Robert. I named him after Robert Plant ❤️
It’s so refreshing listening to an articulate musician. The majority speaking as if they have been lobotomized, yo bro bro, bro, like you know like yo bro
I saw him interviewed on Swedish TV around fifteen years ago, also a very good interview and he seemed very relaxed and at ease - certainly more at ease than in the mid-seventies I think. At one point, the host of the talk show had decided to stage a joke and had a couple of musicians "play a song backwards" - I forget which Zep song it was, but it was a reference of course to the rumours of mystery backwards messages in Zeppelin songs. Robert was immediately in on the spoof, it was an idea he clearly enjoyed. It more or less sounded like chaos, of course... Then after a while, when the band had switched to playing "Custard Pie" instead, the normal way. he feigned surprise: "Hey! Now they are not playing backwards anymore?!" 😁😆
It’s extremely heartbreaking loosing a child so young. I’m blessed that my first born was around as long as he was as an adult , passed in 2007. When Robert Plant speaks of Karac and his other son Logan and sees both of them intertwined , it’s heartwarming. Family and community are everything, thankfully his loved ones have that .
We just passed the 7-year anniversary of losing our oldest son, who was serving in the USN at the time. I told my wife; I do not have enough years left in me to ever get passed this grief. It was good to hear from someone other than a therapist that each person processes grieve differently. I will never get to the full stage of acceptance, but I do understand the process.
Please accept my sincere condolences for your immense loss. Not having our children around is a neverending injury to the heart. Each time Someone slightly mentions their children, the band aid is ripped off the wound of our loss.
I feel bad he and his family had to endure the loss of his beautiful son. And Robert is such a humble person as you can see here in this video clip. I once told him during one of his first solo tours that he was the greatest singer and he smiled, sorta blushed while shaking his head no. I said your wrong, you are the best and he said thank you. As always he was remarkable that night and several other times that I've seen him. If you like his music make sure you see him on tour....he's great. Thanks again Robert.
I understand the pain you went through. I lost my son as well almost two years ago.... Thank you for sharing your story... I now know I am not alone with this heartache
A true legend of a man. I was walking to interview his band in 92 and he walked by me saw the promo package in my hand ,told his bodyguard to stand down and engaged me in a short conversation with autograph as bystanders gaped😮
I could never imagine the pain of losing a son or daughter, especially so young.. My Grandmother lost her son when he was just 6 years old, and she cried every night until her passing.
I've cried every day for over 2years. I wake up and remember my daughter isn't here and it crushes my heart. I'm so sorry for your grandma. I hope to not live a really long life.
@@kristy9337 I can't imagine how you must feel... Something tells me they are not lost, they are actually living in a world far greater than ours and we will be joining them... Much Love
They weren’t only band mates but they were close friends! I really think that if John had lived we would see a zeppelin tour every few years! Without his best friend he wasn’t interested in Zeppelin anymore, to him it would never be the same!
I love it when you hear someone talk and they’re telling a story and the friend or loved one is there. I heard some fairly recent interview with Plant and he’s telling a story about Bonham encouraging him to come back to the group in the last period, going to pick him up and saying something like “Come on Percy, you can do it, it will be okay.” And it’s like Bonham is there saying that. ❤️
John Bonham and his wife Pat, were the ones who were “present” and helped Robert & Maureen with their horrific grief. He also talked Robert into getting back into the band again after Karac died, and to not become a schoolteacher, like Robert was planning on doing. A great friend. So sad about Bonzos early demise.
I’ve loved Robert Plant since I was 14 in 1971, the best time to grow up in…the 70’s. Losing a child at that age had to be so very heartbreaking 💔 I’m so sorry that tragedy happened to him and his wife, I’m glad they had another son to love.
They didn’t but he did….with his sister-in-law. So, Robert Plant’s daughter lost her younger brother, but gained a half brother who is also her 1st cousin, since her aunt (her mom’s sister) is his mother.
@@TheBOG3 Robert and his wife, Maureen, went on to have another son together, Logan, who was born in 1972. Plant later had an affair with his wife's sister, Shirley, with whom he had a third son, Jesse, who was born in 1979. Jesse is half brother to Logan and Carmen.
@@celticgold4028 Thanks. Yeah, I looked it up. I forgot that him and Maureen had another son besides Karac. Jesse is the half brother and full 1st cousin to Carmen and Logan. That probably bumps them up to the equivalent of being at least three quarter siblings.
He is and always will be the greatest .Have loved Zeppelin since day one and now appreciate the music that Robert Plant has moved onto. Just pure magic.
My favorite band!! I got to see them in concert three times back in the 70’s!!! God bless you Mr. Plant and thank you for making me happy. Much love and respect for you. ❤😊
All of my Love has always been my favorite Led Zeppelin song and now I love it even more. I lost my 15 year old son Carter in 2012. The pain never goes away, you just kind of learn to live with it.
There is something special about their music that is hard to put into words. Timeless and I never get sick of their music. EPIC band that changed the world of Rock and Roll and inspired so many of our favorite musicians.
The rock and roll hall of fame is lame, and a total sham. Don’t understand why someone should be inducted twice, yes he did become a solo artist but his name is still in the hall as a member of Led Zeppelin. He would not have had the exposure if he started as a solo artist.
Thank you Mr. Rather! So many of us appreciate you more than words can express. I appreciate how open and natural this conversation with Mr. Plant was. You are both worthy of legend status. 🙏
Having lost a young child myself during that same time period, the way he spoke of it was as accurate as anything I have ever heard or probably could have even articulated myself. 40+ years, its always there, but how he spoke of the changes over time, and the child that came after, took my breath away a little.
Robert has the most beautiful smile. He is very special❤I’ve been a Zeppelin fan forever I never saw them in concert however I was able to see Robert when I was living in Cincinnati in the 90s and it was emotional & wonderful🥲
I had 2 children kidnapped from me yrs ago. via family court system. mother was a big time psychopath. Living with that pain, you can never feel normal again...
Robert is such a sweet, deeply feeling and open hearted artist. How blessed to be alive in his time, however later. I now have the wisdom of life lived to appreciate all his depth and the wonder of his lyrics and that special voice. ❤❤❤❤
My late best friend lost a daughter at 15..he never really got over it. I view death much differently now, as someone who believes in heaven and afterlife, I believe we are here for a very short time in comparison to the afterlife, and because of my strong faith and belief in God, I think of it as something wonderful for someone who has moved "onwards and upwards " . This was the case when my mother died suddenly in 2018, and I'm grateful for that belief. Always thought of Robert Plant as one of the "good guys " in an industry where they are too few and far between!
I too share your views here. I most certainly believe in a God & an afterlife but not necessarily in the traditional sense that we all meet up in a place called heaven, I believe we all move on to our next personal journey wherever that maybe, reincarnated again on earth or in another realm. God takes us to where we need to be, each & every one of us, so we shouldn’t mourn the death of a loved one too hard, they are gone from us & on their own personal journey to the next phase of their being.
I’ve been a zeppelin fan for most of my life! Since I discovered their music at 12 years old and I’m now closing in on 62! I love watching anything that has to do with the band or about Bonham and Plant! I know Plant has put Zeppelin in the rear view mirror but it would be amazing to see the 3 original band mates get together with Jason and play a few dates in America! It’s something many of us would die to see! Anyway it’s great to see him open up about his son and about the music! His solo albums are very good and the music he does with Krause isn’t too bad either! Thanks for it all Robert, hopefully we can chat one day!
Legend. Had the pleasure of meeting him on a number of occasions. Always had a crack, always had time for his fans. Love the fact he's still pushing and challenging himself. I find that inspirational.
Hi sweet Robert, Xennial here lost my son in a custody battle to his fathers family. The grief was and is immense. He is still alive and i imagine his grief is immense. Robert i am 42 and was listening to you since 14. When 50 something males are playing your music, the music is still inside of me, memorized. I think my favorite was Kashmir with Najwa Aktar. I saw you in North Carolina with Patty Griffin. But i prefer to connect on a simple level An equal level, rather than as a fan. I've been through a lot of loss. I appreciate your sincerity, your authenticity, and your poetic soul. Thank you.
To see this interview and hear him talk so intelligently and from the heart was really touching, he was a good friend of my uncle, a fellow musician, for many years and though I have lost my uncle now, to throat cancer, I could see why they were fruends. Both intelligent, well spoken articulate men and with a big talent. God Bless him & his family having lost his son, every parents worst nightmare - I cannot imagine life without my boys, that anyone carries on is an absolute miracle and shows how human strength, and love, endures. Am sure his music has helped him a lot and we are lucky to be able to enjoy his incredible talent. I believe he lives about a half hour drive from me at present, in a gorgeous Welsh Border town where he can enjoy a peaceful life among glorious countryside
ONE of the BEST INTERVIEWS between 2 people that I have ever seen. Pure mental gold. Robert is so grounded and calm. He has absorbed his pain and keeps moving forward. Dan is a good listener. I really appreciate this video. In my own life, Jesus' help is the only way I get through anything emotional and traumatic. His peace calms me down so I can deal with issues. He healed me of my previous coping-addictions so sober and clear-headed I go on. USA
Musings from the master lyricist, musician and more importantly a terrific emotionally intelligent man. I love watching Robert’s interviews he’s so articulate and well spoken, many times cheeky but serious here because of the topic. “Karac was a little nature boy, he was a mountain man” stands out to me. I love the mountains too, Robert. Thank you for the music of our lifetimes - you’ve truly been blessed.
I have 4 daughter's and haven't seen any of them for 10yrs or so and although my heart feels eternally crushed i cannot imagine this mans grief from losing his child forever, my only solice is that my girls are living happy productive lives elsewhere, this allows me smile at times between the tears.
There is no pain like the loss of a child, none. We lost our 28-year-old son in 2013 and without our faith in God, I couldn't have made it. A friend who also lost child said, "welcome to the club no one wants to be in but connects us forever". We learn so much during times of loss and pain. We celebrate Nelson, the things he loved and the wonderful times we had together. We look forward to our great reunion in heaven.
I love him so much, he is so from another time so wise, humble, greateful and down to earth.❤🙏 He is right you love everything around you, cuz one day people you love are here the next they can be gone.😭

A stand up guy. He stays with his wife as well and does not ditch her or blame her for bad things that happen.
Those “little” messages are such a blessing! Love to you and your family.
Beautifully articulated and heartfelt! Your message makes me cry! 🙏
Dan Rather is without doubt simply the BEST interviewer ever. Always lets his guests speak, doesn’t talk over them, and his sincerity shines through.
Dan is incredible.
.....................and whenever a story hit him hard (in his CBS days) he wasn't afraid to show his emotions. Total class act!
Agree. Miss that news era.
I went to the high school he went to in Houston, Texas!!
Remember what he did to George Bush to win a democrat victory by lying to all of America? Actually he should be shunned. Then he does the Barbara Walter all too personal question. "Tell me how your dead kid died, how it feels, you dead kid, talk..." Nasty fake news bully.
I could listen to Robert all day. Every time he speaks I feel educated. He is a legend
I love your words about Robert Plant!
Brilliant man
Robert Plant is still using his hands to express himself beautifully.
Not surprised Robert is so well spoken for the lyrics he wrote over the years.
Disappointed that he would interview with a disgraced dirt bag like Rather
Chip thru the toothaches!…. So cool & sweet
@@acbulgin2 JPJ was never a pill in the slightest, then or now. A man of remarkable humility, and instrumental talent.
@@acbulgin2 Bullshit. JPJ wrote the arrangements for Zeppelin music. You don't know what you are talking about....again.
It blows my mind that he wrote the lyrics to Stairway at age 23 and performed it so brilliantly.
I lost my 32year old son 2 years ago. I struggle everyday. Grief has many layers
I also lost my 38 year old son three years ago and I am still so devastated
I know exactly how you feel. We miss our sons terribly!!! I think about him every minute of everyday

I have nothing but admiration and respect for this legend of a man.
He's been through it all but never succumbed to self-pity or rested on his laurels.
Yes, very much so. His craft is creating songs, and he’s kept that flame of innovation alive throughout his career.
Well Said!
I think very highly of Robert, too. He’s such a classy well spoken man, love watching his interviews.
What a fabulous musician in ALL - of his band(s) “incarnations.”
They are both wonderful human beings. Robert Plant and Dan Rathers.
What about the way he treated women?
@fingerprint5511 Yeah, back in the coke fuelled hedonistic 70's all mega rocks stars took advantage of women. Robert is fundamentally a good man and a lot less worse than others.

Robert Plant was, and is, one of the coolest people to have ever lived… a true giant of rock and roll.
He’s still got it. Some Amy channel posted him live with Alison Krauss last week.
Tony Iommi, Billy Gibbons, Carlos Santana and this man: the coolest living men on earth.
I once met Mr Plant in Ft Lauderdale and had a chance to speak with him. It was in a hotel bar with his family. He was super nice and gracious. I mentioned my brother produced him in concert and I mentioned my English brother and he knew who he was. He’s still a lovely man. God bless him and his family ! 🙏🏻
How exciting!!!! 🫶🏽
I seeing all these people who have lost a child and I'm am crying. My son is 26 and I'm going to hug and kiss him today.
Mine is 27……..I think about this horror sometimes; must b like the worst nightmare. God bless the children we adore!!
I lost my 33yo son.. the light of my life, 3 years ago.. And the pain remains the same...
💔
Such a gentleman.
Highly intelligent, articulate and thoughtful. Remarkable human being. 💙
Wonderful description of such a great talent. Thanks
I lost my son 26 yrs ago❣️ And yes, it was heart wrenching😢 I never forget him. And thanks be to Jesus for getting me through it🙏🏼🌸
Amen

I am so sorry about your loss. Jesus is the only way I get through life also. Thank you for sharing.
Amen to that.

@@KittyGrizGriz He's been a journalist since the early 60s. He reported from Dallas in November 1963 at the time that President John F. Kennedy was assassinated. And then promoted at CBS News, where he served as White House correspondent beginning in 1964. In the 80s through 2005 he hosted the CBS Evening News.

I lost my youngest son suddenly November 11, 2023! My life is filled with profound sadness! There are no words of sympathy or condolence that can comfort me, I will just live with this pain til I will see him again! I love you Robert Plant and have always been a huge fan of Led Zeppelin! Keep Rockin Robert! You’ve brought joy to so many of us lost souls! God bless you and your family!💖🙏🏻
I'm sorry for your loss. That must be the worst kind of loss a person can go through. I hope that while you will never get over this death, you will find meaning and purpose in your life enough to go through happily. Take care of your health and reach out to caring people. Love to you.
My heart to you my friend ❤
My only (adult) daughter was murdered 20+ years ago. I was in therapy at the time -- thank goodness. My therapist let me cry for a couple of months. Then she said: "You can grieve for the rest of your life, if you want to. I won't try to stop you. However, if you grieve for the rest of your life -- your daughter will still be dead, and you will be dead too." I chose life. You CAN get through this AND over it. Get some professional help. 💖💖
❤
So sorry for your loss. No words are enough. But I do wish you love & healing. ❤
No parent should have to bury their child…..
Thank you!
I lost mine when he was 3 months old.
The only comfort I get is that he didn’t suffer and he’s in heaven.
@@ca8944Unbelievable, I’m so sorry for you and your family. I can’t imagine what that feels like. A whole lot of pain and good memories. It’s a great comfort knowing your child is with God our Father and His Son Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior. God bless you.
And God Bless you Robert Plant. I was fortunate enough to have seen Led Zepplin in concert three times back in the 70’s! My all time favorite band! I still listen to them almost every day!! ❤
@@ca8944 that is devastating….i luckily have three healthy,thriving ones who have all found their thing and are already out and about. You still care about them every minute of the day.All the very best….
@@ca8944 I'm so sorry. Please take the time to look after yourself.
I lost my baby boy last year, I'll be in pain until the day I die...
I’m so sorry for your loss.
Bless you. What a terrible tragedy. I hope you find a pathway forward that honors him and gives you a reason to live and love. So sorry for your huge loss.
❤
You will one day see him again ❤
❤❤❤❤❤
Met Mr. Plant in 1989 during his tour supporting his “Now and Zen” album.
Not only signed me an autograph and took a photo with me, but talked to me for several minutes in the Peabody Hotel lobby in Memphis, TN.
One of the most genuine and wonderful persons I have ever met.
A beautiful soul, and he will be reunited with his son in Heaven one day, grateful to have met him during my life journey…..
Awesome!
Thank You for sharing💟
What a fantastic story ... Thank you for sharing that extremely special moment~ ⭐
Your analgesic shivering occurred when you spoke of his humbleness. He was my first crush and nothing compares to him ever! Wonderful soul.
@@joankuehn4479 Yes! Robert Plant - back when I was a teenager (100 years ago 😂!) - was my 1st crush too; and I still love him & Led Zeppelin to this day ... 🎶 🎤 🎸 🤩 ❣️
I saw this man perform fairly recently at a small intimate gig. I was sat at the front and all the while I wanted to to pinch myself for seeing him right there in front of me and preforming as well as he ever did. What a great musician and humble person he is.
I love you Robert Plant, I have for over 40 yrs Sir and I thank you forever for your timeless music.

@tasmanndrive LIFE IS IN PHASES FACE IT
Don't allow people's results to pull you down.
If your mates are making it in life don't envy them celebrate them because its their time..
Because your time has not yet come as far as you are on a project that will announce you letter keep on keeping on.
Just like Jesus told he's mother at the wedding ceremony after she told him to turn water into wine he replied that his time has not yet come..
Hear Me: never be on a rush. Keep pushing.. Don't allow others results to bring you down.
As far as you don't give up, the world will celebrate you once is your time..
Not all you see on social media are real. Never live your life based on what you see on social media.
You are more.. If men reject you today, work on yourself. Tommorw those same men will pay to watch because its your time..
Let me end with this.. Time has a way of rewarding consistency never ever give up.
A lot of interviewers today could take such a lesson here from Dan Rather. Actually listen to the answer to your question… No need to interrupt. No need to turn it around upon yourself. Ask the question and LISTEN to the answer.
What a noble soul! I lost my 2 year old angel to sudden death in 2012 and I don't know how but I realized that life goes on and the only thing that matters is how you choose to live it...
💚🙏🏼
I'm so sorry. Big hugs& much love to you❤

We lost our son, FE 26.
It’s so difficult, losing a child.
This Sunday it will be 8 yrs since my daughter passed at age 41. I havs her 3 beautiful girls to always remind me of her❤

I lost a grandaughter on christmas eve,2020,she was 9 months old,she was a twin,we still have her sister,my kids were completely lost,as were my husband and I,the only thingwe could do was push aside our own pain and just help them any way that thay needed ,3 yrs later they are better,but our family will never be the same.we just try to pour all the love we have into all of them.
I’ve lost two sons now. I’m so close to my granddaughter, if anything happened to her, I don’t know how I’d cope with it. As a Grandparent I understand how you’ve had to B here to help your family cope. I know I’d be he sane but completely devastated too.

It’s torture to lose a child. I’ve watched my parents suffer the loss of my brother. Bless his heart.
I have great respect for anyone that has lost a child... God bless to all.
There is no pain like losing a child. It is a heartache that can never be filled. It is on your mind when you go to bed and get up and constantly on your mind in the background. From one who has been here.
He is such a wonderful and humble man!
I too lost 2 children, one at 3 1/2 months and the other at 16 years, it is the greatest tragedy a parent could ever go through and no one can even comprehend it unless they’ve gone through it also, we played stairway to heaven at my 16 year old funeral and that one song is what helped me get through the day and every now and then when I’m driving and that song comes on the radio I know my boys are with me
Sorry for your losses😭‼️
@RobertPlant196 Are you really pretending to be Robert Plant? 😂
@RobertPlant196 Yeah, right!
@RobertPlant196 go away
People, do not trust this supposed Robert Plant. They joined UA-cam only 2 weeks ago. ehhh
I also lost a son & it will always feel like yesterday. He's come a long way
& his music continues to inspire.
Thank you RP. I lost my daughter to SIDS in 1995. Her father idolized you Led Zeppelin really. He sadly passed
Insert Thank you song here
I just lost my mom/I’m 64. We were best friends. I recently heard this song/started to listen to Led Zeppelin. I’m blown away by this group. It has helped me wade through this difficult time in my life. Grief is the worst human emotion to deal with. Kudos to Robert and thanks.
Fantastic. Thank You Dan Rather. Thank You Sir Robert Plant.
xxxxoooo Grief is tiring and hard. xxxoooo Thank you for the music.
Tragic loss and wonderful perspective from the greatest front man in rock history, the greatest voice in rock history. And he's still going strong.
Freddie is the greatest singer and performer in rock history
@@LindaAnderson-l6hAt his peak, nobody could touch Robert Plant as a rock frontman. Freddie was pop star. Plant was the ultimate rock frontman.
Freddie is the greatest,rock star ,showman and it's official has the best voice in the world and is so handsome,with the greatest personality and He loved cats 💜😃xxx
Anyway you live in America,what would you know , where as I am Scottish and proud of it ,have seen queen in concert and been to Freddies house in London,so suck that up lydon ,shalom 💜🇮🇱😃xxx
@@LindaAnderson-l6h Freddie said Robert was the best. They were good friends.
One thing that I will always love about rock music in its various forms - classic rock, blues rock, heavy metal, punk rock, post-punk, goth, grunge, etc. - is the willingness to talk about pain and loss. It helped myself and many others get through the years.
Does not bear thinking about. My heart goes out to any parents who have lost children.
Wonderful musician and a beautiful gentleman.
To me you are the best vocalist to ever grace this disturbing world. Thank s for all the great music.
Well said
Best vocalist? You must not of listened too much music.
His voice is quite shrill and hard on the ears at times.
@@mikepalmer1971key words, "to me."

I lost my son 15yrs ago, I never had another Child, It is something no parent should have to bury there child, nothing anyone can say to make it better,R.I.P Son Robert. I named him after Robert Plant ❤️
Robert Plant is a genuine fantastic human!
It’s so refreshing listening to an articulate musician. The majority speaking as if they have been lobotomized, yo bro bro, bro, like you know like yo bro
Yes or 'you feel me', every few words and you feel obliged to concede.
😂 yes! His answers are concise and thoughtful, he takes time to think. It’s refreshing.
I loved the GENUINE smile right at the end.
I saw him interviewed on Swedish TV around fifteen years ago, also a very good interview and he seemed very relaxed and at ease - certainly more at ease than in the mid-seventies I think. At one point, the host of the talk show had decided to stage a joke and had a couple of musicians "play a song backwards" - I forget which Zep song it was, but it was a reference of course to the rumours of mystery backwards messages in Zeppelin songs. Robert was immediately in on the spoof, it was an idea he clearly enjoyed. It more or less sounded like chaos, of course... Then after a while, when the band had switched to playing "Custard Pie" instead, the normal way. he feigned surprise: "Hey! Now they are not playing backwards anymore?!" 😁😆
It’s extremely heartbreaking loosing a child so young. I’m blessed that my first born was around as long as he was as an adult , passed in 2007. When Robert Plant speaks of Karac and his other son Logan and sees both of them intertwined , it’s heartwarming. Family and community are everything, thankfully his loved ones have that .
AyanaKess im so sorry you lost your son. Mine was 30. I ache always. Id like to send you a hug.
We just passed the 7-year anniversary of losing our oldest son, who was serving in the USN at the time. I told my wife; I do not have enough years left in me to ever get passed this grief. It was good to hear from someone other than a therapist that each person processes grieve differently. I will never get to the full stage of acceptance, but I do understand the process.
Please accept my sincere condolences for your immense loss. Not having our children around is a neverending injury to the heart. Each time Someone slightly mentions their children, the band aid is ripped off the wound of our loss.
I feel bad he and his family had to endure the loss of his beautiful son. And Robert is such a humble person as you can see here in this video clip. I once told him during one of his first solo tours that he was the greatest singer and he smiled, sorta blushed while shaking his head no. I said your wrong, you are the best and he said thank you. As always he was remarkable that night and several other times that I've seen him. If you like his music make sure you see him on tour....he's great. Thanks again Robert.
I also think he’s the greatest singer.
Robert Plant is the best thing in my Rock and roll world 🌎 🙌 love that man and love Led Zeppelin forever....
My daughter passed 3 years ago. She was 42. I still can't believe she's gone. My heart ❤️ is broken.
I can't imagine 😢 I'm so very sorry.😢
My daughter, Michala, passed away 7 years ago,she was 43... my best friend...changed my life forever...forever missed.k
I understand the pain you went through. I lost my son as well almost two years ago.... Thank you for sharing your story... I now know I am not alone with this heartache
I'm so very, very sorry for your painful loss.
I understand & empathize.., I lost my son 2/9/22.
A true legend of a man. I was walking to interview his band in 92 and he walked by me saw the promo package in my hand ,told his bodyguard to stand down and engaged me in a short conversation with autograph as bystanders gaped😮
You lucky man❤❤❤!!!
Nothing but respect.
Very sad loss, I remember the year it was reported. Felt very bad for him and his wife. Heartbreaking.
So precious to Remember his son in such a touching way 💜
I could never imagine the pain of losing a son or daughter, especially so young.. My Grandmother lost her son when he was just 6 years old, and she cried every night until her passing.
I've cried every day for over 2years. I wake up and remember my daughter isn't here and it crushes my heart. I'm so sorry for your grandma. I hope to not live a really long life.
@@kristy9337 I can't imagine how you must feel... Something tells me they are not lost, they are actually living in a world far greater than ours and we will be joining them... Much Love
Robert and Dan, thank you, this is life and needed to see this tonight, have Cancer, Peace
I know what its like, lost my nephew at age 12. Going on 15yrs and its still hard. I loved him as my own and he is in my thoughts every day.
John Bonham had his shortcomings for sure but he was some kind of friend to Robert. Respect.
Yes they were very close friends, Robert is John’s son Jason’s godfather. Robert took Johns death really hard too, he really misses him a lot.
They weren’t only band mates but they were close friends! I really think that if John had lived we would see a zeppelin tour every few years! Without his best friend he wasn’t interested in Zeppelin anymore, to him it would never be the same!
@@louiscalachino9019 I agree.
I love it when you hear someone talk and they’re telling a story and the friend or loved one is there. I heard some fairly recent interview with Plant and he’s telling a story about Bonham encouraging him to come back to the group in the last period, going to pick him up and saying something like “Come on Percy, you can do it, it will be okay.” And it’s like Bonham is there saying that. ❤️
John Bonham and his wife Pat, were the ones who were “present” and helped Robert & Maureen with their horrific grief. He also talked Robert into getting back into the band again after Karac died, and to not become a schoolteacher, like Robert was planning on doing. A great friend. So sad about Bonzos early demise.
I’ve loved Robert Plant since I was 14 in 1971, the best time to grow up in…the 70’s. Losing a child at that age had to be so very heartbreaking 💔 I’m so sorry that tragedy happened to him and his wife, I’m glad they had another son to love.
They didn’t but he did….with his sister-in-law. So, Robert Plant’s daughter lost her younger brother, but gained a half brother who is also her 1st cousin, since her aunt (her mom’s sister) is his mother.
@@TheBOG3 Robert and his wife, Maureen, went on to have another son together, Logan, who was born in 1972. Plant later had an affair with his wife's sister, Shirley, with whom he had a third son, Jesse, who was born in 1979. Jesse is half brother to Logan and Carmen.
@@celticgold4028 Thanks. Yeah, I looked it up. I forgot that him and Maureen had another son besides Karac. Jesse is the half brother and full 1st cousin to Carmen and Logan. That probably bumps them up to the equivalent of being at least three quarter siblings.
He is and always will be the greatest .Have loved Zeppelin since day one and now appreciate the music that Robert Plant has moved onto. Just pure magic.
A very civilised man with such historical talent that brought joy and now wisdom
My favorite band!! I got to see them in concert three times back in the 70’s!!! God bless you Mr. Plant and thank you for making me happy. Much love and respect for you. ❤😊
Wow, 3 times?!!! Amazing
Wow - what great interview. Thank you Dan and Robert!
All of my Love has always been my favorite Led Zeppelin song and now I love it even more. I lost my 15 year old son Carter in 2012. The pain never goes away, you just kind of learn to live with it.
There is something special about their music that is hard to put into words. Timeless and I never get sick of their music. EPIC band that changed the world of Rock and Roll and inspired so many of our favorite musicians.
The Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame can be lame but I think Mr Plant is a fine candidate for a solo induction.
Shoulda be taken care of long long ago. Love his solo work.
The rock and roll hall of fame is lame, and a total sham. Don’t understand why someone should be inducted twice, yes he did become a solo artist but his name is still in the hall as a member of Led Zeppelin. He would not have had the exposure if he started as a solo artist.
Wow I am surprised he is not already there
Thank you Mr. Rather! So many of us appreciate you more than words can express. I appreciate how open and natural this conversation with Mr. Plant was. You are both worthy of legend status. 🙏
Having lost a young child myself during that same time period, the way he spoke of it was as accurate as anything I have ever heard or probably could have even articulated myself. 40+ years, its always there, but how he spoke of the changes over time, and the child that came after, took my breath away a little.
So sorry for your loss 🫂
How nice he had such support. ❤❤
So very sorry. I have walked down that road too. It never goes away.
The interviewer approached a delicate topic in a sensitive way. Kudos to him. Robert will always be an inspiration.
Robert has the most beautiful smile. He is very special❤I’ve been a Zeppelin fan forever I never saw them in concert however I was able to see Robert when I was living in Cincinnati in the 90s and it was emotional & wonderful🥲
I can’t imagine what he and his family went thru on the loss of his son. He is an amazing talent. ❤️
Yes love everything around you as much as you can. I lost my beautiful boy 2.5 years ago. Well spoken,always
I had 2 children kidnapped from me yrs ago. via family court system. mother was a big time psychopath. Living with that pain, you can never feel normal again...
I’m so very sorry 😿.
@@KittyGrizGriz thank you
I’m so sorry.

@@davidfasano7210 no
To think he wrote the lyrics to Stairway to Heaven at 23 is mindboggling. ❤
Robert is such a sweet, deeply feeling and open hearted artist. How blessed to be alive in his time, however later. I now have the wisdom of life lived to appreciate all his depth and the wonder of his lyrics and that special voice. ❤❤❤❤
My late best friend lost a daughter at 15..he never really got over it. I view death much differently now, as someone who believes in heaven and afterlife, I believe we are here for a very short time in comparison to the afterlife, and because of my strong faith and belief in God, I think of it as something wonderful for someone who has moved "onwards and upwards " . This was the case when my mother died suddenly in 2018, and I'm grateful for that belief. Always thought of Robert Plant as one of the "good guys " in an industry where they are too few and far between!
I too share your views here. I most certainly believe in a God & an afterlife but not necessarily in the traditional sense that we all meet up in a place called heaven, I believe we all move on to our next personal journey wherever that maybe, reincarnated again on earth or in another realm. God takes us to where we need to be, each & every one of us, so we shouldn’t mourn the death of a loved one too hard, they are gone from us & on their own personal journey to the next phase of their being.
I can't imagine losing a child ..don't ever want to either.. love and strength to all that have❤️
I’ve been a zeppelin fan for most of my life! Since I discovered their music at 12 years old and I’m now closing in on 62! I love watching anything that has to do with the band or about Bonham and Plant! I know Plant has put Zeppelin in the rear view mirror but it would be amazing to see the 3 original band mates get together with Jason and play a few dates in America! It’s something many of us would die to see! Anyway it’s great to see him open up about his son and about the music! His solo albums are very good and the music he does with Krause isn’t too bad either! Thanks for it all Robert, hopefully we can chat one day!
Legend. Had the pleasure of meeting him on a number of occasions. Always had a crack, always had time for his fans. Love the fact he's still pushing and challenging himself. I find that inspirational.
Lost my 16 yo son and it never gets better :(
Damn...sorry
A joy to hear the great Robert Plant opening up a bit.
Hi sweet Robert,
Xennial here
lost my son in a custody battle to his fathers family.
The grief was and is immense. He is still alive and i imagine his grief is immense.
Robert i am 42 and was listening to you since 14. When 50 something males are playing your music, the music is still inside of me, memorized.
I think my favorite was Kashmir with Najwa Aktar.
I saw you in North Carolina with Patty Griffin.
But i prefer to connect on a simple level
An equal level, rather than as a fan.
I've been through a lot of loss.
I appreciate your sincerity, your authenticity, and your poetic soul.
Thank you.
To see this interview and hear him talk so intelligently and from the heart was really touching, he was a good friend of my uncle, a fellow musician, for many years and though I have lost my uncle now, to throat cancer, I could see why they were fruends. Both intelligent, well spoken articulate men and with a big talent. God Bless him & his family having lost his son, every parents worst nightmare - I cannot imagine life without my boys, that anyone carries on is an absolute miracle and shows how human strength, and love, endures. Am sure his music has helped him a lot and we are lucky to be able to enjoy his incredible talent. I believe he lives about a half hour drive from me at present, in a gorgeous Welsh Border town where he can enjoy a peaceful life among glorious countryside
ONE of the BEST INTERVIEWS between 2 people that I have ever seen. Pure mental gold. Robert is so grounded and calm. He has absorbed his pain and keeps moving forward. Dan is a good listener. I really appreciate this video. In my own life, Jesus' help is the only way I get through anything emotional and traumatic. His peace calms me down so I can deal with issues. He healed me of my previous coping-addictions so sober and clear-headed I go on. USA
what a beautiful person
Musings from the master lyricist, musician and more importantly a terrific emotionally intelligent man. I love watching Robert’s interviews he’s so articulate and well spoken, many times cheeky but serious here because of the topic.
“Karac was a little nature boy, he was a mountain man” stands out to me.
I love the mountains too, Robert.
Thank you for the music of our lifetimes - you’ve truly been blessed.
I have 4 daughter's and haven't seen any of them for 10yrs or so and although my heart feels eternally crushed i cannot imagine this mans grief from losing his child forever, my only solice is that my girls are living happy productive lives elsewhere, this allows me smile at times between the tears.
There is no pain like the loss of a child, none. We lost our 28-year-old son in 2013 and without our faith in God, I couldn't have made it. A friend who also lost child said, "welcome to the club no one wants to be in but connects us forever". We learn so much during times of loss and pain.
We celebrate Nelson, the things he loved and the wonderful times we had together. We look forward to our great reunion in heaven.
I love him so much, he is so from another time so wise, humble, greateful and down to earth.❤🙏 He is right you love everything around you, cuz one day people you love are here the next they can be gone.😭
