Legends honoring legends in a room full of legends.
Well said
That says it all.
Rock legends honoring rock Gods.
Great comment 😊
They had to cut to Yo Yo Ma a couple of times during the guitar solo so that those who thought that Yo Yo was playing guitar, would know that he was actually in the audience. I don't know who that is on guitar, but he bears a slight resemblance to Yo Yo. I'd like to see them side by side with the guitar player wearing glasses. 🙂
To play that in front of not just Paige, Plant, and JPJ, but all of the other “celebrities” in that crowd is simply amazing! This maybe the greatest “cover” of all time!!!
@@rebeccalipps23 absolutely excellent! And I know the guys from Led Zeppelin know how much we cherish their music they'd given us over so many years, but there is something just so heartwarming seeing the smiles on their faces as they witness what HAS to be the best cover of their classic song, you know they realize how wonderful it is.... chokes me up every time I watch this... god bless them and what they've given us...bless JPJ and John Bonham, we miss you guys
( and holy cow, towards the end there when Jason looks up towards the heavens there sort of as to say 'how was that pop?'.... man right in the deep feels ..... )
"Paige"???????
it is and who has the balls to cover Led?
It is
Amen
I’m a 62 year old black guy and this makes me cry every single time.
56 year old white guy right there with you!
63 year old white lady, same here, every time.
Yep, another 56 year old reduced to a whimper over here!
50 y/o here. Always choke me up.
I agree completely!!!
Why is watching this so emotional?!!!!
'I know it's only Rock and Roll but I like it like it yes I do'
Music can be a very powerful thing!!.
Anne was born to sing this song, she brought Robert to tears singing his own song.
Ann Wilson turned in that performance at 62, and recovering from a cold...
Wow. Just, wow.
Page's enthusiasm is endearing, and Plant is clearly overcome with emotion. Two very different and beautiful reactions to a very special moment.
Plant misses his friend
Qhen he teared up he was thinking of his best friend John Bonham as he watched Jason John's son and his godson play his dad's drum kit
🙌 this 64-year-old Brit Led Zep fan's eyes are filled with tears - what a time to be alive! Well done America back in the time before alternative facts...
I love the cut to Yo-Yo Ma in the audience (world’s greatest Cellist) during the guitar solo. Talent appreciating talent.
The camera panned to Bonnie Raitt during the performance too
@@rubroken I believe I also caught Debbie Allen and Jimmy Kimmel?
@@sebastianblack6506 This video was shortened(I don't know why), in the full version I think I saw Steven Colbert and his wife
The saxophonist was Blue Lou Marini (Blues Brothers Band).
luv that too...he's totally rocking out.
Ann and Nancy have been Zep fans from the beginning. Ann's singing style has been called the "female version of Robert Plant" in the past and Heart would regularly sprinkle Zep songs in their concerts. I saw Heart in concert several years ago and recall they played Battle of Evermore and I think a couple of other Zep numbers. As someone else mentioned, when Robert invited Jason to be his guest at the honors, he had to pretend he couldn't make it - because he was performing in it! That's why Robert stood up in surprise and pointed at Jason when he was introduced. Also, as others have mentioned, the bowler hat was a nod to Bonham's occasionally dressing onstage as one of Stanley Kubrick's "droogs" from his film adaptation of the book A Clockwork Orange. The look consisted of a white boiler suit and black bowler hat - google "John Bonham droog" and you'll see pictures. This performance was the best cover of Stairway that can ever be done.
Great pics out there of Keith Moon sitting down at a kit with a 3-4 year old Jason Bonham. If only…
I never get tired of seeing this tribute. For me, it’s the choir and the strings and horns that really elevate this. A beautiful tribute to LZ.
62 tear old Ann showed the kids how to do it . Rock Goddesses playing for the Rock God's and they nailed it.
Rock legends playing for Rock Gods and Rock Gods Give A standing ovation to rock legends As Robert Plant shedding tears
It was an amazing compliment, but had a lot to do with Jason on drums and all those bowler hats. He and Jason's Dad were best friends.
The bowler hats worn by the choir was a tribute to Bonham, who wore them extensively during the late 1970's tours. Jason was also a surprise guest, and he played his dad's kit. Best Stairway cover I've ever heard, and fitting it came from Heart, who were heavily influenced by Zeppelin.
In the words of Che..."I enjoy watching them enjoy it"
We feel the same way watching you all on your channel.
I believe Ann Wilson was 62 years old and battling the flu when she belted out this song. Accolades to everyone who was a part of this outstanding tribute!
I heard that the group invited Jason to the event and he faked another commitment and surprised them on-stage as the drummer.
Yes. I read that he was asked by the guys to represent his dad, and he said he was busy. They didn’t know until that moment that he would be standing in for his dad, literally.
I love the look on their faces watching their song being preformed as a tribute to the great music they made. Heart killed it.
If you want to get a good laugh,
Honest Composer Reacts is one of the best.
When you get a standing ovation from led Zeppelin you know you must have done something right
Apparently Plant invited Jason B to come with them to the event but he had to decline cause he had a prior engagement. This performance was his prior engagement so Plants enthusiasm at see Jason was real and a shock in the best possible way. If you get a chance find Jack Blacks homage speech to Zeppelin from the same event. Fucking hilarious and heart felt👍👍🙏
So cool. I didn't know that about J.B and his prior engagement! So funny!
They knew what they were doing picking Heart to do that song ♡♡♡♡♡ Legends ♡ All around
I've probably watched this 100 times, but every time the backdrop lifts and the big choir kicks in, I still get chills. Such an amazing tribute.
Same with me, my friend
60+ and to be able to sing like that ... just amazing.
So many elements to this…the orchestra, the choir, Jason Bonham…..and The Wilson sisters are simply magical and huge Zeppelin fans for decades!
They have the best live version of Rock And Roll outside of Led Zeppelin….recorded many years ago and periodically heard on AOR radio stations.
They also have a live rendition of The Battle Of Evermore from 2012, I think it was, where Ann plays acoustic guitar (I didn’t know until I saw that that she even played an instrument) and Nancy plays the mandolin… It’s really very good!
FYI - This clip was the edited version that was played on TV. The producers in their infinite stupidity cut the song down. However, the good thing is that the full length version of the song is also on UA-cam...somewhere.
I believe they cut out the 'bustle in your hedgerow' verse.
this is an even more edited one than the original edited one... how many re-edits are there? This has to be the worst one I've seen so far...so much of the emotion was lost...they even remixed a butchered a lot of the audio in this one.
This wasn't a cover....................................it was a compliment!
I get a chill every time I watch this.
Ann and Nancy were heavily influenced by Zeppelin, and were terrified doing this song. They didn't want to screw it up in front of their idols.
In fact over their career they've covered a number of Zeppelin tunes. I saw them cover "Rock n Roll" way back on August 16th 1977, the day Elvis died. It was the last song of the encore and they dedicated it to the King.
Just a little bit of pressure there, nailed it.
❤❤❤
It doesn’t matter how many times I see this performance…… I get chills all over my body and tears in my eyes. Every. Single. Time.
Best cover of any song ever!
I get a kick every time I see Yo Yo Ma briefly grooving to the instrumental. Cool to see a trained classical virtuoso enjoying such a high level of musicianship.
Heart usually covers some Zep songs in their concerts, like Rock N Roll! You must do a Heart deep dive, they have decades of material and it's interesting to see how they change with the times but still sound amazing! Love you guys!
This never gets old. 62 yo Nancy belting it out. The choir, orchestra, the guy who plays the forbidden riff in front of THE Jimmy Page.
The entire production was superb! Hats off to everyone on and creating behind that stage!!
Ann's singing, Nancy's playing her guitar -- both fabulous
I saw Robert Plant with Alison Krauss in Taos NM 3 weeks ago. Imagine a few Led Zeppelin songs played in the rockabilly style. Sold out show in a small park.
A tribute worthy of Led Zeppelin.
Masterpiece performance ❤️👍
Love the Wilson sisters. Their chance to pay tribute to one of their primary music idols, the other being the Beatles, is difficult enough without having them present during such a prestigious event. But they capitalized on the moment with one the most stellar performances, as you can tell by the response by the band.
Now, take a moment and listen to them blast away on a cut from their album, Bebe Le Strange, called EVEN IT UP. You'll enjoy it very much.
I don’t think anyone had ever covered a Les Zeppelin song before! Heart was fantastic
it's so absurd how phenomenal this performance is
Heart absolutely killed it awsome
I was fortunate to see Led Zeppelin live a handful of times never let down. I’m ha tribute has so much more emotion and fan interaction. I actually like it
One of my favorite live performances ever
Man when Ann hits that long run on the rock and not roll at the end,I mean holly crap it doesn’t get much better !
Made it her own, damn near; is right! Stellar performance! Lenny Kravitz rendition of "Whole Lotta Love" is also killer during these Kennedy Center honors and Jack Black gave a hilarious intro to the festivities, as well. Great reaction guys!
this guy right here
Steven Tyler ( Abby Road Medley) Kenedy Center Honors Paul McCartney 2010
Also Epic. A must reaction!!
Ann's voice has matured nicely. She was 62 years old when this was performed (2012). She still had it, for sure.
Seeing lenny kravitz walk of stage in the start, think he did "Whole Lotta Love"
Maybe try that one.
Heart played this in concert when I saw them a few years ago and KILLED IT!
That was just out-freaking-standing
I tear up every time i watch this Greatness all around
Zeppelin got to know Heart in the 70s whole on the road. They were notoriously grumpy about other bands playing Stairway, which was the biggest song in the world at the time. When they witnessed Heart cover the song, they were impressed and gave their blessing.
I too never tire of watching this. Just wonderful. There were other performers as well. I also enjoyed Kid Rock doing Ramble on. Jack Blacks introduction was hilarious if you haven't heard it, do so. Great pic guys!
Saw Zep in 73 and Hart in 76 so they're contemporaries which is amazing. Think Anne was 62 in this performance. Still got the pipes. Probably one of the best covers ever. Thinking about seeing Zeppelin in 73 and there were 4 guys. Then seeing this arrangement with all that was truly the perfect way to honor them well done !
The finest tribute ever . Just look at the reactions from Zeppelin … Simply beautiful …Love the Kennedy Centre Honors and as a Zep fan since the 70,s could not be more proud ..
Plus....the coolest president and first lady watching the coolest band being honored.
👍❤🤙
The greatest cover ever. Period. Goosebumps
I’m very glad you let it run all the way through without stopping.
IMO, the greatest cover ever done live !!!
Could it be the best live recording of "Stairway To Heaven" ever ? Yes ! Kudos to Heart & Jason Bonham R.I.P. John Bonham Kudos to Robert Plant Jimmy Page. John Paul Jones Led Zeppelin greatest UK Band Ever
For all of my life, I'd said no one should ever cover Stairway To Heaven. Then I saw this. Now I say no one except Ann and Nancy should ever cover Stairway To Heaven.
In addition to their own iconic songs, Heart is a great Zeppelin cover band!!!!!❤
The great Shane Fontayne on guitar! Did you see Jimmy saying, “ Fuuuuuuck!”
Ann was 62 here.
I did notice that. They were in awe
Very special moment. Goosebumps every time. Watched this so many times it will NEVER get old.
Anne and Nancy are two of the greatest ever
Heart inducting them was no accident. They met Led Zeppelin while both were in concert in Seattle in 1977. Both Bands became close, and kept in touch during the next 35 years or so.
Could you imagine playing Jimmy Pages solo in front of him???? Man respect for that kid…. He did a great job!
Well he’s not a kid, he is 70 yrs old himself and knows the band members quite well. He is a mad guitarist in his own right, that’s why page was loving it so much.
Plant has said that they forgot to invite Jason and at the last minute called him and he said he couldn't make it. So seeing him up there playing on Bonzo's drum-kit and wearing his Bolo hat must have been pretty emotional.
Plant is Jason’s godfather.
The Wilson sisters , Jason Bonham and others destroy it! Man that was legendary
I love that Jason, John Bonham’s son, was on drums for that tribute to his dad- the greatest drummer in rock history
That’s what gets me every time..
I have loved this for years and am so happy for you that you have now enjoyed it too. Not much else can be said. Awesome. Respect for you.
Man, I got so emotional when ever I see this performance !!! Only Ann and Nancy Wilson could pull this off !! The arrangements were sick with the addition of a Full choir is superb !!! Mad respect for the Wilson girls !!!!
Plant said he doesn't like hearing Zeppelin covers, especially Stariway, but he said this one moved him to tears.
Yes, it brought tears to Robert's eyes. Many people get this wrong about why he cried - it was not bc of them doing the song well, nor bc Heart is awesome, etc.
John Bonham wore a black bowler (derby hat) on Led Zeppelin's 1975 Tour. When the curtain came up in the back of the stage - the whole choir was wearing bowlers.
It reminded Robert of his best friend, John Bonham, and his death. Bonzo's death being heartbreaking and such a senseless loss.
Robert even said that years afterwards. Anyone who knows Led Zeppelin quite well - knew why Robert cried in that moment and knew exactly what he was thinking about.
Robert missed his friend, John, terribly. Bonzo was the one from the group, along with his wife, Patricia, who spent a lot of time comforting Robert after his son, Karac, died on July 26th, 1977 - during their mammoth 1977 US tour, which cut it short.
I've been waiting years for one of the Zeppeliners to break down and cry re the passing of John Bonham. ❤💔❤️
This performance is INCREDIBLE!
I always wonder what the Zeppelin guys were thinking. I imagine that they might have been remembering when they wrote this, when they recorded it, the first time they played it live, memorable performances of it along the way...And everything that had happened over the years since then. It must have been a powerfully emotional experience.
In interviews it’s none of that… Ann is quoted with saying, singing this song in front of them was like reading the Bible to Jesus. Plant is quoted with saying, the tears and emotion were for John Bonham. Jason is plant’s godson. Plant also said, he really enjoyed the song, that they took it to new heights, but that he doesn’t feel connected to this song anymore and it’s a song for the universe now.
Same night . . . Lenny Kravitz did "Whole Lotta Love" and Kid Rock did "Ramble On." ALSO THAT NIGHT . . . Beth Hart and Jeff Beck did "I'd Rather Go Blind" in tribute to Buddy Guy.
and all those covers you named were all better than this performance, easily.
Jeff was supposed to play Jimmy Page's solo, but played with Beth Hart on I'd Rather Go Blind. This whole show was killer!!!
LED ZEPPELIN's 2007 award show. Hearts version of the track gradually grew to include a string section, a horde of backup singers and
the Joyce Garrett Youth Choir. Jimmy Page, Robert Plant and John Paul Jones sat watching from the balcony and were visibly moved, particularly Plant, who had tears welling up in his eyes. Seeing John's son (Jason) on the drums, and everyone wearing the bowler hat to honor John Bonham was the emotional icing on the cake of a beautiful performance. Great reaction, guys.
Man, I love you guys! I have never seen two brothers learn so much, so fast about music they didn't grow up with. I mean, that's impressive guys! And it's no bull****! Y'all seriously love what
you're doing. You're my favorites by far. You're the very best out there. Thank you both!
Thank you!!
@AirplayBeats Thank you all! You did the work. I love your choice of tunes man. I'm not sure if you'll be able to accommodate me, but here goes anyway. I'm new, and I'm not a patreon viewer, but I wanted to make a request If possible. One of my all-time favorite songs is a song that I really believe you'd both love too. It's by the Rolling Stones, and it's off the 1974 album "It's Only Rock & Roll." The track is called; "Time Waits For No One." It's during the period when the Stones were putting out their best music by far. It's because they now have lead guitarist Mick Taylor. Taylor joined them in 1969 after origional guitarist Brian Jones was fired because of severe drug use keeping him from playing up to par. He was definitely holding them back music-wise. Mick Taylor had played with several other great players such as Eric Clapton, Steve Winwood, Jeff Beck, Jimi Hendrix, Duane Allman and was in the band John Mayall's Bluesbreakers. Anyway, he plays one of the most amazing guitar solos on this track. Again, you guys should really love it too. Another great track Taylor plays on with the Stones is off the album "Goats Head Soup." The song is called "Winter," and it also contains an amazing Taylor solo. Either way, whether you play my request(s) or not, you've got a new family member. Thank you both gentleman...Peace out!
And Jason on drums! And the mighty Zeppelin loved it...Robert was ready to cry!
I noticed that Jimmy was mouthing the notes for the solo as well. Bless his heart. Awesome reaction you two. Thankyou!
Finally!!! La and Che, the delight on your faces says it all, and I've been looking forward to seeing it.
Needless to say, this is a fantastic performance, and Jason Bonham--and the appreciation and tears on the band's face--make it one for the ages. Thanks, gentlemen.
Thank you!!
This arrangement is genius.
Love this performance. So many there to honor the best band ever!!! Ann and Nancy killed it! Thank you
About 10 years ago in San Francisco Heart played with Jason Bonham Band opening the show doing a Led Zep tribute show. Ann & Nancy cane out and a few acoustic Zep song. Very Cool
Only band worthy of covering Led Zeppelinh
LOL. silly comment bruh. Nobody is truly worthy.
She's in her 70's. xo :* She's Ann Wilson. Absolutely legendary, in her own right.
I know it brought tears to their eyes cause it did to mine, Heart have always been huge Zeppelin fans. There was no one better to do that song than them
This is like a spiritual journey watching this. It’s has to be one of the greatest moments in the history of the Kennedy Awards Ceremony. Absolutely epic.❤️
Thank you Led Zeppelin for this timeless classic. You should be proud of your enormous contribution to music.
Glad to see you got here after hearing Heart and Led Zeppelin build their careers. Love this journey ❤️there is more- Lenny Kravitz and Foo Fighters do songs as well. Heart closed the show as only they could do it. ❤️
Hallelujah, do you know how long I've been waiting for you guys to watch this performance, I tear up everytime I watch this, I hope you two enjoy it as much as I do🥰🤟🎵
Loved this! Brought a smile and tears simultaneously
Exactly !!
Its like they transition from “wow, that’s incredible, amazing, beautiful” to “damn, we did that, Im loving this”. So cool to see their reactions.
Ann Wilson was 62 when she gave this performance...!
I second everything y’all said but want to add the orchestra and choir addition brought a beautiful and powerful ethereal quality to the song that took it to church! Kudos to the producer who could hear that in advance! 👏😊✌️
My man!! Hope you have a happy and safe holiday weekend!!
@@AirplayBeats Thank You!! Appreciate you. Enjoy your family as well. Peace ✌️
When Robert tears up,
I tear up. He said he was thinking of Bonzo during the performance.
Wow, just wow. I think Robert Plant was trying to hold it together. Bless him
The Best Going!!! Excellent Work!!! Many Thanks.... BEST COVER EVER... NO DOUBT!!!!!!!
✌✌🌍🌎🌏✌✌
Love Led Zepplin❤
The drummer is the son of the late John Bonham, Jason Bonham. Sounds exactly like dad. He had a good teacher since childhood.
OMG I can't wait to watch this!!
(It wasnt as good as I thought it was going to be)
Possibly the most unforgettable performances of all time.
So perfect to go alongside your Zeppelin reactions. There's some interviews if you're interested of Zep members after this performance. Interesting to hear how much they loved it and Robert P talk about the tears.
I have seen this many many times... and still cry everytime...
