This reminds me of the time I saw Led Zep in Canterbury in 1325. I just got over the plague and sold some indulgences to buy a ticket. Bloody great show! I do think they plagiarized this track from a traveling bard from York though.
Yes. I wondered if I was crazy for thinking so. They started writing it staying at an old cottage in the welsh countryside (the name of the cottage was later used as a song title) so it comes together
Superb adaptation. The fact that the first 3/4ths of the song are so recognizable and, said with respect, not so dissimilar, speak volumes about how (literally) timeless this song is.
Ask thy minstrels to play it backwards, and thou wilt hear "O, I toast mine beloved Baphomet. A farrier's shed once stood, where he inflicted upon us pain. Dolorous Baphomet." I do swear by the writings of St. Jerry, I speak truth. Now affix tightly this tin helm about thy skull. The aliens of the aether doth listen.
Ya know, I'm beginning to consider the fact that some of these melodies/baselines of modern songs might have been played WAY back, just no one made it into a song. I mean, there's only a limited number of combinations you can put together that sound good
The Philosophical Stone by the best four Alchemists of Englaland : Sire James Patrick of the House of Page (master of the luth), Sire Robert Anthony of the House of Plant (master of the choirs), Sire John Paul of the House of Jones and Baldwin (master of the flute, the bass-luth and many more instruments), and Sire John Henry "the Bonzo" of the House of Bonham (master of the thunder) !
Led Zeppelin inspired me to write my first ever short story when I was thirteen. Their songs always give me a lot of fantasy vibes, also because they took inspiration from Lord of the Rings, which is another inspiration for me. I'll always love this band, and this rendition is absolute genius and fitting.
@@kevinblount7142 there was a Norwegian commercial once in which a guy is browsing in a bookstore and upon spotting LOTR says with a sigh and an eye-roll "Ah, they've made them into books as well now?", lol. I usually despise commercials but that one has stayed with me.
@@SonofSethoitae to be fair Robert plant didn't say anything about it. The only thing he has mentioned is that he's sick of playing it over and over again
@@SevenPr1me Well, no, he's talked about how he wrote it as an act of "automatic writing", and that he feels "overwhelmed for every single reason you could imagine" when he hears it, and how he no longer relates to the lyrics because he wrote them so young. I think people overstate Robert Plant's distaste for the song. He's pretty willing to talk about it.
@@truemansparks Not really ducky. Just play as gay as possible and they'll hand you the keys for safekeeping. :) (I think there was a Dave Allen sketch on that one.)
I know there are already a lot of comments praising this excellent rendition, so at the risk of sounding like a baroque-n record: thou hast slayethed this!
Thither's a mistress who tis sure all yond glitters is gold and the lady's buying a stairway to heaven at which hour the lady gets thither, the lady knoweth if it be true, the merchants shouldist closeth with a word the lady can receiveth what the lady cameth for yay, and the lady's buying a stairway to heaven thither's a sign on the mure but the lady wanteth to beest sure 'cause thee knoweth oft words has't two meanings in a tree by the brook thither's a songbird yond sings oft all of our thoughts art misgivings yay, it maketh me wonder yay, it maketh me wonder thither's a humour i receiveth at which hour i behold to the west and mine own spirit is crying for leaving in mine own thoughts i has't seen rings of smoke through the trees and the voices of those who art looking yay, it maketh me wonder yay, it verily maketh me wonder and it did whisper yond belief, if it be true, then all shouldst knoweth If any one does record the lyrics, id really like to hear them
And there's a wind 'ere down the path our shadows longer than our souls thither walks a maiden we all know who shineth argent light and wish to know if yonder things all turneth to gold and if ye listen very keen the tune will come to thee at last when all are one and one is all to be a stone and naught roll and she's buying the stairway to heaven.
The "And it's whispered that soon" part was taken from the live versions! Very very cool! Even at the start of the solo I can TELL you love Stairway to heaven
Beautiful! Seems like it came from the land of the ice and snow! You did justice my man! To not only led zeppelin, but to the spirit of the song itself! When the tune, "if there's a bustle in your hedgerow..." line played, i could hear it. And hats_ off to tje mindblowing guitar solo!
Very very beautiful cover !! 👌 You guys are very talented musicians !! 👍 I really hope you keep making covers like this, with medieval style. Good job, well done !
Wow! Very nice! So much attention to details of the original (we’ve all heard the original a million times) . Thanks for taking the time to do this, it was very enjoyable to listen to. More than just an interesting oddity it’s a nice piece of work. 👍
All of Medieval nobility would wage constant wars just to keep Led Zeppelin as their own personal musicians if they sang this song in that time period!
Great adaptation! The song itself is a wonderful setting for lots of places to be listened to. Castles, forests, lakes, rivers, etc. My favorite one is watching the sunset on Route 1 between Big Sur Park and Carmel, Ca.
I have a huge playlist for my D&D sessioins. I collect music, mainly because of what I do for a living. I have this CD and one for Pink Floyd. During game sessions these get requested often. ua-cam.com/video/mPCQEJDojZo/v-deo.html
This has gotta be my favorite AC/DC song. I mean come on, Ringo is killing the vocals! Not to mention Freddie Mercury hitting those drums hard! But where is the song without my absolute favorite guitar riff made and played by none other than Roger Daltrey. But last but not least, we have to love the bass and keyboard, played phenomenally by Bill Ward. This song is an instant classic.
Odd enough, I have a playlist with the original version along with others songs played with acoustic and old guitars, several of them baroque and medieval song. Needless to say, I love this bardcore version too.
Led Zeppelin did a really good cover of this.
Needeth more cowbell.
Made me laugh. :)
@@jayoz9583 And more mandolin.
Awesome observation!
You bastard! You big, beautiful, amazing bastard!!
This is strangely period appropriate... the people of medieval times were legitimately interested in a stairway to heaven.
I was thinking that too lol. Also was thinking it should be one of the easiest to do in this style.
gonna make a bartcore playlist.

Well, the song remains the same 😉

@@HoriaNeagu This song better be played in my time of dying
This reminds me of the time I saw Led Zep in Canterbury in 1325. I just got over the plague and sold some indulgences to buy a ticket. Bloody great show! I do think they plagiarized this track from a traveling bard from York though.
Well, the plague didn’t hit until the mid 1340’s... must have been a great concert😂
Might have been Blackpool. Could have been Liverpool. Some chaps came from there by the name of some insects.
Zounds! Scoundrels abound in the forests.
I saw Sir Rob the Plant and Jimmy the page
😂🤣
The actual song by Led Zeppelin actually sounds a bit like a medieval ballad
Yes. I wondered if I was crazy for thinking so. They started writing it staying at an old cottage in the welsh countryside (the name of the cottage was later used as a song title) so it comes together
led zepplin kinda seemed to like that style.
@@DoctorAlright great minds think alike.
It sounds so similar to the original and yet different. That's how you know this song will last the ages and is fucking timeless.
I was thinking just that.
Superb adaptation. The fact that the first 3/4ths of the song are so recognizable and, said with respect, not so dissimilar, speak volumes about how (literally) timeless this song is.
Stairway to Heaven is already medieval style
Indeed
Well mrither fricker here’s medieval times two!
I’ve always thought so too.
The beginning, especially.
Except the 2nd half
Rumours say that this song is forbidden to be played in the shops of Luthiers
The rumours are true.
By Our Lady, tis true!
A pox be upon he that doth!
Aye tis true
Sir Wayne, Lord Campbell, Baron of Aurora learned the hard way.
Nay stairway, did deny!
Led Zeppelin has always gave me a medieval vibe. I'm so glad I found this!

I do swear by the writings of St. Jerry, I speak truth. Now affix tightly this tin helm about thy skull. The aliens of the aether doth listen.
Nor His woes (actual audible from this reversed song)💯

I love the comment sections on these videos. You guys are amazing.

I love how this one is true to it's tune yet so medieval appropriate.
Led Zepplin kinda invented Bardcore with this TBH.....
Zeppelin, and when I heard the intros to fight fire with fire, and a few others by Metallica, they throw a hint at this idea as well.
Jethro Tull. Just sayin.

I love the fact that it sounds exactly the same.
And she hath bought her indulgence unto heav'n
Little known fact; this song is about Lady Galadriel of Lothlorien, from Lord of the Rings. So this version is perfect
That's just fan interpretation. Robert Plant has never said this about Stairway.
@@SonofSethoitae to be fair Robert plant didn't say anything about it. The only thing he has mentioned is that he's sick of playing it over and over again

I believe Robert Plant said that on this song he was more thinking of the Lady of the Lake in Arthurian legend
@@1Wade9 yeah you're right though. Tbh I wish it was about lady galadriel but I did used to think it was. The lyrics do fit for her regardless
All the chicks would have been throwing their chastity belts onto the stage!

Could u imagine if u could go back in time and teach a band of bards to play this song the people would be blown away
They might mistaken you as the devil himself.
I know there are already a lot of comments praising this excellent rendition, so at the risk of sounding like a baroque-n record: thou hast slayethed this!
Glorious and worthy of praise, thou minstrels known as Led Zeppelin .
Thither's a mistress who tis sure
all yond glitters is gold

at which hour the lady gets thither, the lady knoweth

yay, and the lady's buying a stairway to heaven
thither's a sign on the mure
but the lady wanteth to beest sure
'cause thee knoweth oft words has't two meanings
in a tree by the brook
thither's a songbird yond sings
oft all of our thoughts art misgivings
yay, it maketh me wonder
yay, it maketh me wonder
thither's a humour i receiveth
at which hour i behold to the west
and mine own spirit is crying for leaving
in mine own thoughts i has't seen
rings of smoke through the trees
and the voices of those who art looking
yay, it maketh me wonder
yay, it verily maketh me wonder
and it did whisper yond belief, if it be true,
then all shouldst knoweth
If any one does record the lyrics, id really like to hear them

Excellent!
And there's a wind 'ere down the path
our shadows longer than our souls
thither walks a maiden we all know
who shineth argent light and wish to know
if yonder things all turneth to gold
and if ye listen very keen
the tune will come to thee at last
when all are one and one is all
to be a stone and naught roll
and she's buying the stairway to heaven.
Shit, how long did THAT take?
thither = to there
whither = to where
hither = to here
whence = from where
hence = from here
thence = from here.
You used them incorrectly.
I always thought it was medieval up to the hard rock part. This is beautiful.
this piece of music is well suited to medieval instruments, i love it.
The "And it's whispered that soon" part was taken from the live versions! Very very cool! Even at the start of the solo
I can TELL you love Stairway to heaven

I like whoever put this together actually liatened to how Page often played this on stage.
He listened to a lot of live shows. He does the individual string picks in the live shows .
One word.... Brilliant!
The world of Tolken comes alive. Perfect!
Just like that
Incredibly beautiful! Well executed. Show u how beautiful the song really is...
Nothing short of awesome!
NAILED IT!!! That was awesome .
Outstanding, Genius !
Second only to the man who Wrote and Mixed the original.
I had to wipe a tear from my eye at the end.
Thank You !
Finally, a cover of Stairway to Heaven that does the original justice. Well done.

Thank you!!!

You ride a white mare in the footsteps of dawn...nice rendition of a classic!
This is strangely appropriate, i always play this song whenever i play Age of Empires 2 to the point i subconsciously associated this song with AoE 2
Beautiful, ever since I heard Stairway I always visioned the video be medieval..good job.

Since the original has the same vibe and it's my fave song of all time, all I can say is great job
Beautiful!

It's still the greatest song ever, IMO. It never gets old.
