We have to remember that this was 1969. The world hadn't seen anything like Led Zep. They were the blueprint for all rock bands. It's easy to forget in 2023 how shocking, gargantuan and epic Led Zeppelin were. The USA had just got over the first British invasion and Beatlemania and then Led Zeppelin came along like a God throwing thunderbolts.
Not quite. The Kinks and The Small Faces were the prototype bands .The Kinks in 1963 and Small Faces in 1965. Both bands had heavy rock, but it is believed the Kinks were the first punk band. I'd say they were the first rock band. After all that's where punk came from
Id even add to that .. Eddie Cochran was a massive influence on punk bands/artists 😊 and is often me mentioned as the godfather of punk
@justinwilton4603 Then we go down the whole Little Richard and Chuck Berry Road.
Its a whole conversation 🤣
It hit her at 2:18…..she knew and then blushed
Greatest rock band ever
Blows me away that people haven’t heard this song before.
Like you, and many others here, I grew up listening to this (and other Led Zeppelin classics) as well as bands such as Pink Floyd, and we were BLESSED. To see another generation listening to their unique gift for the first time is quite a trip. The absolute GENIUS of Led Zeppelin cannot be argued. They will remain one of the top five groups of all time for the next hundred years. It doesn't matter who comes along between now and then, they will still be there, guaranteed.
@@sopwithpuppy, so we have another hundred years?
@@philstone3859 Of course! The human race will evolve though. We will be born with masks and we will evolve the ability to breathe through our backsides, and all our pants will have anti-viral capabilities.
@@sopwithpuppy Now that's funny 🤣 ! Lol
My parents always said this was a bunch of noise. I don't sit around and listen to music all the time but I still love this noise and probably not gonna outgrow it anytime soon
The drums on this song are insane! John Bonham RIP!
I agree. Bonzo remains the greatest rock drummer that world will ever see. His swing, his feel, his POWER will never be replicated.
@@johnr.8275 Jason is pretty damn close tho
@@thomasburt8995 Absolutely agree, Thomas. Nobody but Jason could have (or should have) played the 02 show. Jason was absolutely amazing that night; leaps and bounds better than when I saw him in '88 on Jimmy Page's "Outrider" tour. That said, Jason was pretty damned good even back then!
Yep he shreds them
Bonzo is always killing it
This is over 50 years old but would still be a massive hit if it was released tomorrow.
This is such an accurate statement.
Led Zeppelin more or less invented "Sex, Drugs & Rock 'n' Roll", they were bad ass and didn't say no to anything. This song is just proof of that. Greets from Germany!
This band changed the whole structure of rock music. They came in on the scene towards the end of Beatlemania and really took rock music to a place where it had never been before.
When they hit the scene they were also like 19, its crazy.
@@phytheshyguy you're absolutely right! To be that talented at that young age and Jimmy Page was doing most the the arranging and mixing in the booth. Incredible . Thanks for the reply.
Led Zeppelin was the best rock band of their time - so awesome!
they came in later then beatlemania. That was mid 60s. When Led Zeppelin came on the scene the whole love, peace hippie era was coming to a close.
The people were ready for something new and different
Good way to put it. And very true
Led Zeppelin had total control over the recording of their music. Hearing this when it first came out was a real trip. All these years later it never gets old. I’m so glad I grew up in this period of music. Late 60’s and all throughout the 70’s, in my old ass opinion, was the greatest time of music…ever.😎
Also grew up in that era. We were fortunate.
Without a doubt the 60's,70's were the Absolute best Era for Rock & Roll,Southern Rock,Country...hell all music back then was the Premium!
Also grew up late 60s Early 70s great music still love it
You are so correct. I saw them in concert 1973. They are all four geniuses.
They were, are and WILL ALWAYS BE the ultimate rock band.
"Babe I'm gonna leave you", "Ten years gone", "What is and what should never be", "Fool in the rain", "Going to California",
"Good times Bad times" are just a few of their best....!
@@Jericho363 Hard to chose a fav, but it is first on the list...lol
And "Dazed" should be....
Endless Hits
Brilliant, eclectic selection, Nick!
@@StonefieldJim4 Thank you sir....
Over the Hills and far away
Greatest band in history! Please do more Zeppelin!!
Top three are The Beatles, Pink Floyd, and Led Zeppelin. Everybody has their own order
@@alrivers2297 There's only one " best " . LED ZEPPELIN. !
This album introduced a new sound to music. A lot better sound quality and stereo separation than most songs produced before 1969.
Zeppelin were brilliant and this song is a classic !!!!!
It's a naughty but fun song. 😜 Led Zeppelin had a lot of those.
The lemon song may shock them too LOL
@@johnnosiennek7066 LOL no doubt!
cool
Stacey, I own a book titled "Deep Blues" by Robert Palmer (no relation to the late singer of the same name) which explores black music brought over from Africa with the slaves and ends around the mid 60's. (BB King comes in near the end of the book) My point is, Jimmy Page was hugely influenced by the black musicians from the 20's to the 50's. This book goes into great detail about those old blues boys and cites numerous examples of lyrics that were "naughty". Everyone knew what was being implied but yet there could still be an innocent explanation for it, LOL. I urge anyone who reads this to find a copy of this book. Once you read it 2 or 3 times, you will understand where every band from (1962-Present) The Stones/Beatles/Zep/The Who/Pink Floyd/Sabbath/Queen/Rush/ ACDC/Van Halen/Iron Maiden/Tool, etc comes from. Without the guys detailed in this book the music we know and love might not have happened.
@@jeffcampbell668 I've watched documentaries with similar content, definitely sounds like a book I'd like. Thank you! I'll be checking it out.
Something about this song you need to recognize. Whole Lotta Love was ground breaking in it's use of bass and drum. This song was the first top song that used bass riffs as a lead instrumental, paving the way for a lot of other groups to do the same. Same for the drum solo.
They were HUGE when I was a kid in the seventies. Super tight band. So hard when John Bonham died in 1980. We all understood why they quit. It was all four or nothing. Great band.
Because their songs were way too long for radio this band was basically learned about by word of mouth. This also allowed them to be way more explicit than other bands of that time. Saw them at Festival Hall in Brisbane in 1972 and they blew the roof of that place. Jimmy Page did some solos that went for like 20 minutes.
It was called FM radio. FM was relatively obscure and played whole albums. It brought a lot of music to people who wanted something outside of pop.
"Saw them at Festival Hall in Brisbane in 1972." Lucky!!! Zeppelin were never better than in '72, in my opinion.
There music was simply genius! It came from otherworldly dimensions, delivered through the mighty ZEP!
It's all about "sex, drugs, and rock and roll". Zeppelin would often do panning in their songs so different parts would go back and forth between the headphones. The breakdown part was Jimmy Page playing a Theremin, which is an instrument that looks like an aerial and emits an oscillating sound by moving your hand close to and around the aerial while he used a dial to control pitch. I'm glad you did the studio cut because the "official" video has a shortened Theremin part and I'm also glad you've done another Zep song because it's been a minute lol. Please do more!
I don't about the drugs and rock n roll part, but definitely sex. "I wanna be your back door man" means anal sex.
An overwhelming majority of their songs were not at all about sex, drugs, and rock n roll. They were a very cerebral band
@@joannparker1977 Yup, they were thinking about the next round of sex, drugs and rock 'n' roll.
Seeing Page and Plant in concert and seeing Page use the Theremin was so cool.
You should see The Song Remains The Same, where Jimmy uses a Theremin during the concert, so you can see how they work. This song was based on blues standards, and "back door man" was the old-timey way of saying "side dude." :)
I've always felt that this song is one of the best pure rock and roll songs ever. That weird part in the middle was kind of a hip thing to do in 1969 when this song was released. It adds to the no-holds -barred out of control vibe of the song. The instrument that makes all the weird noises is called a "theramin." When the guitar solo comes in after it, it really hits hard. BJ was right about the meaning of "back door man" too. They guy that comes and goes via the back door when her husband/boyfriend is going or coming via the front door. Considering that this was the opening track on Zep's second album, it was just such a great blast of bravado that cemented Led Zeppelin's image early on. I love watching reactions to songs like this, so I can imagine what it's like to hear it for the first time. Great, classic song.
We used to call parts like the middle section here the "freakout", and for a brief period of time, in that sort of transition from acid rock to heavy metal, no self-respecting groovy rock and roll band would dare to release a signature song without a part like that in it. Usually, they would edit this part out for a single version for radio, and only the hipper people who had heard the album would know about the "freakout"...It was a definite holdover from the psychedelic era...
Back Door Man is a reference to anal sex.
@@theinquisitor4844 Not in this context.... it's an old blues idiom for an illicit lover who comes and goes through the back door so as not to be seen by the husband/boyfriend who comes and goes through the front door. But yes, it modern times, it has come to mean that as well.
@@bostonvair LOL The song is a reinterpretation of Willie Dixon's You Need Love and Back Door Man. It meant that way back before Dixon wrote them.
Eddie Kramer, engineer on this track: "The famous Whole Lotta Love mix, where everything is going bananas, is a combination of Jimmy and myself just flying around on a small console twiddling every knob known to man." What a great visual!
This is a heavily inspired by , Muddy Waters “You Need Love”, which inspired Small Faces “You Need Loving.” Both songs are big inspirations for this song, especially Small Faces’ lyrics.
Good trivia, I didn't know that. Thanks!
Never trust anyone who doesn't like Led Zeppelin.
Listen at 53 years old my mother was a huge Led Zeppelin fan. I grew up listening to Led Zeppelin and they are nothing short of fucking amazing!
PLEASE watch Led Zeppelin live at Royal Albert Hall doing Dazed and Confused and you'll see the genius of Jimmy Page!!!❤❤❤❤
@Tom Jones I think I've seen them all...lol! I'd be happy with any of them!!
this was the only #1 single for Led Zeppelin. thier other hits were too long for singles. they had multiple #1 albums though.
Every album went platinum!!
Communication Breakdown was ranked #1 for a few years running in NYC's WNEW FM's listener poll.
Albums were more important back then
Their bro THEIR!
Whole lotta love reached #4. Led Zeppelin has never had a number one single.
Legendary band ! Different level to todays bands
"since i've been loving you" (remastered) is top notch!!!
The first Zeppelin song I fell in love with was Good Times, Bad Times
"way down inside..." "every INCH of my love...." come on! and the middle is basically him giving it...
8:45 you nailed it buddy. Plant is singing to all the ladies out there. In a famous live version of the song he ad libs a little and says “I want to give everybody my love!”
Zeppelin kept it raw. As the bluesman intended. Every Zep song is killer! Custard pie and Rock&Roll ya gotta react to. There diversity is off the charts. Songs like misty mountain hop, and the Rain song, the Ocean and Down by the seaside.
Can't go wrong with Led
This song is like a big freaky trip. The instrumental part in the middle has a eerie feel to it. So many fabulous and flawless songs from the masters of hard rock.
It's meant to simulate "making love".
May l suggest the 13 minute live version...showcases their astounding talent!
Simply the greatest rock band on the planet.
Robert Anthony Plant … raw as he could be in 1970 !!! LoL . It is still as fresh as when it was released.
Brings back fond memories. Saw them live twice. Once at Berkeley Hi school auditorium and LA in my youth. Their musical abilities were peerless.
DO THE VIDEO!!!🎸🎶🎸🎶🎸 Every single Led Zeppelin song is "a song within a song"!!🎸💙🎸 Please continue down the LZ rabbit hole...you wont be sorry!! "Babe, Im Gonna Leave You", "Ramble On", "Kashmir", and " I Cant Quit You Baby" are just a few(unless you have done any of these)🎸🎶💙
This was my time and favorite band... I even met them backstage in early 70s
I love how BOTH of you caught the vibe!!! By the end, you Asia felt it. And BJ, you were ROCKIN', my friend!!!
Awesome guys ..
I got this album when it fist came out its one of there best very heavy sound👍
That guitar solo is dirty as hell. Page is a god.
First heard this in 1969 at Camp Pendlton. The Beatles had just released Abbey Road and i was astonished at the sound. Both albums traded places at the top three different times into the first couple months of 1970
This song, along with the rest of Led Zep'2, changed things for me, played it to death!
You can’t go wrong with any Zepplin tune, they are all great and timeless!!!
This is by far my fav reaction from both of you. BJ was banging his head to the beat. I’m 60 and I love seeing our younger generation. Grooving to the music. In life the one thing that will always bring everyone together. Regardless of Race, Creed or color. Is music. Keep on Keeping on, I’m giving you both a standing ovation on this one 😎
One of the mighty Zeps best. That strange guitar sound is Jimmy runing a violin bow across the guitar strings. Zeppelin was such a diverse band. Each one of their albums had a different vibe. So many great tracks like Dazed And Confused , Nobody's Fault But Mine , Black Country Woman , the list goes on.. Peace
Actually he is playing a Theramin
It's amazing this was just "a band." The UK did a poll once somewhat recently and asked people to rank the best musician at each position of a band. Best drummer, best guitarist, etc.
All four of these guys were ranked as #1 in their respective category.
They were beyond a supergroup. They are arguably lb-4-lb the greatest collection of musical talent ever assembled in modern music, including one-off collaborations and supergroup albums. Just insane to think about these four just happened to get together and form a band and make some music.
I think they were 19 when they made this song. Insane.
This song is about intercourse. He's going to give her "every INCH of my love". And he's going to give it to her "way down inside" of her. In 1969, when I was 11 years old, I purchased this album within a few days of its release. I loved your reaction. How could you not love this song. This is a great classic rock song from one of the best rock bands ever. Peace, Calvin.
I remember so vividly when I heard this gem some fourty years ago! It changed my life!! Happy New Year from Finland!
I loved Zeppelin. Black Dog and Rock and Roll are my 2 favorites. I remember letting my Dad hear this. He said “Those cats is high as hell!” I just laughed my butt off.
Asia, I remember listening to this song on my record player/stereo for the first time when I was 13 years old. The look on your face during the freaky, psychedelic part was exactly how I felt then! 😂 My mom was in the kitchen and called in, “What are you listening to?!” But I was pulled in to the unique sound if Led Zeppelin. NO ONE sounds like them.
I was the same age when I heard it. Blew my mind. Still my favorite band.
Everyone's mother said the same thing
From probably there best album. Each tune a classic. Still have my original vinyl in its iconic sleeve
Probably my favorite rock song - came out when I was young - love it - I would say the song is an 'experience'
It's Thursday, it's 7 o'clock and it's time for Top of the Pops. This was used as the theme music and chart rundown music for the flagship weekly British chart show from 1972 - 1981 when it was replaced by Phil Lynott's Yellow Pearl (another banger). Cant hear this without thinking of TOTP.
First! I love Led Zeppelin
Love you two, at last people not cutting in & out of the track. The emotion in your faces shows how much you understand music, keep up the good work.
That's what's nice about the official video. You see what's going on during the instrumental section. Each playing their instruments, dancing.
Glad the middle section wasn’t cut short on this one!!!!👍
Zeppelin were masters of dynamics, “light and shade”…
You hear this song for the first time....and then you spend the rest of your life looking for another song that moves you like this one did.
Trippy fantastic 🚀🌃 ...the power of Led Zeppelin.. saw them in 73' and 1997 both at MSG.. memorable! 💐💐🌃🚀
Back in the early 70s if you listen to bands like this you were a hippie, the first time I seen them in concert back in 1975 here in St.louis I barely walked out of the arena lol.
My second favorite band ever.
Robert Plant said in a interview when he was a young boy living in England that the first time he heard Elvis sing on the radio he knew he was going to be a singer. Elvis was his favorite singer growing up. He findly got to meet his idol when the band went to see Elvis in concert. Elvis knew they were there and mentioned that Led Zeppelin was in the crowd and Robert Plant said he wiped the tears from his eyes. When one of Elvis's bodyguards walked up to the table and told the band that he wanted them to come over to his hotel after the show to meet each other they were shocked. That interview is on utube if anybody is interested in seeing it. It's pretty interesting.
this is why Led Zeppelin is THE GREATEST rock band ever .
Asia blushing a sight to see.😁 This song is a classic! 🙏🏽✌🏽❤️
Inspired millions to learn guitar this one...what a riff.
Picked my son up from school one day and this was playing on the radio. The part where Plant goes; aaah, aaaah, aaaah, aaaah, aaaaah, my son yells out chooo! Now I can't hear this song without laughing.
LOL!! That look you had Asia on the freak out section!! Priceless! The mighty Zeppelin! Follow...
"Babe I'm Gonna Leave You" and "Since I've Been Loving You(Live)" by Led Zeppelin!!!! Fire!!!!
you guys did this song justice listening to this with headphones on. love from Buffalo
Back then and still now, greatest of all time..they made the blueprint for everything to come after this
Zeppelin was one of many great bands who took inspiration from old Mississippi Delta Blues. Down and Dirty!
Year 1975. Sitting around with friends smoking blunts, listening to the Zep. Awwww memories
I was 12 when this came out. Was raised on a farm and we didn't get to watch alot of television. So the radio was our friend. Built a ton of drag racing car models listening to it. But you amaze me B.J. how you can analize a song and pretty much come up with the meaning. God Bless you 2.
I was 13 lol
Way to go Asia!! 'Oh My God' as Jimmy and Bonzo do their thing is just about right 🙂
EDIT: One of the best reactions I've seen to this epic track :-)
U.K Band's and MUSIC RULES...... led zep are possibly the best and most iconic rockband the world has ever seen....
I've rarely seen BJ so into a song ! Fabulous ! .....and fun breakdown, your relationship definitely makes this channel fun for me, and as I've said Asia's mystical diving into the heart of things with her gaze and mouth, and BJ's humour and little quips, its all good you two
BJ nailed it. There’s a lot of Led Zep DNA out there. Hard to judge em, when you get the pick of the litter in every town you play in.
OMG Asia, you are the entire package. Old lady here, 59. BJ is a lucky man. Thank you both for reacting to such good music. ❤
Lemon Song is BY FAR the greatest Bass Line ever by an outstanding musician.....You will be blown away.....It's the best Zeppelin song and that's serious!
This is BANGER country y'all! Rock on steroids by the great group Robert Plant and Led Zeppelin! 😛😛💯💯. Happy New Year to a GREAT couple and UA-cam all stars!
please, please continue down the Led Zeppelin rabbit hole. I will be there every step of the way!
i used to hear this on my transistor radio. it was among a few songs that i hated because it was too long. of course i love it now. one of the best Zeppelin songs ever.
This was a great 45 record because the flip side was "Living Loving Maid", another great song. It is the one that "Whole Lotta Love" leads into on the album, I'm pretty sure: "With a purple umbrella and a fifty cent hat..."*
*Not talking about the artist, Fifty Cent. His hats are more expensive.
In concert, those weird sounds in the instrumental section of "Whole Lotta Love", are shown to be made by a violin bow on guitars and cymbals. Jimmy Page did some of that in his gig with the earlier perhaps greater band, The Yardbirds...who could also boast of Eric Clapton and Jeff Beck as guitarists in the band. Lots to explore. Thanks for sharing great music.
Heartbreaker leads into LLM, just looking out.
@@catmanpc9166 Oh yeah, thanks! Another very great song!
He didn’t use the cello bow in Whole Lotta Love you might be thinking of Dazed and Confused
ROCK & ROLL!! Asia, BJ, thank you guys for playing this. I never have so much fun as when I watch you guys. If I could wish for something I would wish to be able to take the two of you back in time, back in the day and just go to a couple of old school rock concerts. I think that you would have really liked to be there just once. Anyway I just love the responses that you have to some of the early music. Your reactions are so sincere and cute that I laugh along with you till I cry. I enjoy the work that you do here so much. Hope y'all have a Happy New Year! Peace & Love to ya. ;-) ;-) ;-)
Modi made rock 3-d possible. In concerts it was dizzying. Then back to 'garage' sound. And the bridges portraying all their love. And closure. Genius.
You guys should listen to the live version from their "How the West Was Won" album. They do a medley of stuff in the middle of it, so it feels like 5 songs... 🤘😎
You need to sit down one weekend and listen to 8 full albums to get - Zeppelinfy!
Greetings from Chile 🇨🇱
Happy New Year! Led Zeppelin, my favourite rock group ever!!!
Great album. I bought Led Zeppelin Two, back in 1969, when I was 14 years old. I had to play this song, when my Dad at work. New Subscriber too.
So fun watching you guys experience Led Zepplin. I am 45 and have been loving them since I was a kid. My Uncle got me into it back then. I am enjoying watching you guys enjoy them too
So cool how Asia lights up when there is a killer guitar playing... especially with ac/dc.
The late great John Bonham on drums. He was a beast! RIP Bonzo.
Ann and Nancy Wilson (Heart) as young teens, snuck out to a Zep concert in Seattle in the early 70's, and said when they heard "The Lemon Song", they knew what they'd be doing the rest of their lives..........
Asia I love the look on your face when you first hear some of these rock songs. Like amazement
There's nothing like a visual when you watch led Zeppelin.. hope you can do another that you can see.
This album, #2, blew my mind and changed my life....just wow!
Another great reaction to a great band and song. Checkout some more great songs from led zeppelin like when the levee breaks, the lemon song, black dog, ramble on, thank you, and in my time of dying
One of the greatest rock anthems! Happy New Year to you both!
Led Zeppelin kicks ASS! Nobody will ever be like them again. Enjoy, I had many good times in H.S. with these guys! Hard to believe it was over 40 yrs ago. Listening to this, I forget Im an older adult! We had the best yrs growing up in the 70's.
Simply the greatest rock band of all time.
One of the Songs that changed Hard Rock Music forever !!!!...this is when you combine a Guitar,a Violine Bow and a Theremin !
