Definitely suggestive lyrics in a lot of Led Zeppelin songs . The line I Want To Be Your Back Door Man, not sure what you were thinking but I have a pretty good idea. In blues songs, the phrase ‘back door man’ is a reference to being a wife’s lover: when the husband goes out the front door to go to work, the back door man comes in the house at the back. Only they know the true meaning of the lyrics!
Quite correct, despite having a different meaning today. Allman Brothers mentioned this specifically in "One Way Out" and Led Zepplin too in their song "Since I've Been Loving You."
that's basically the reason why I watch reaction videos, preferably of younger people : re-experience the joy about this music and see other people have similar emotions like I had back in those years 😆🤘
What I admire the most is, the amount of soul and feeling Robert Plant puts on his vocal delivery for this song. I know it’s a very passionate song, but his delivery just exudes so much soul.
My Dad was in the Navy when Led Zeppelin was just starting out. In sure they were all that was on the radio back then. I really appreciate that driving around loud as shit nowadays, imagine the cranky old bastard used to do the same lol.
Definitely... Led Zeppelin infused their music and lyrics with a ton of sexuality. Some of their songs were more subtle with it, but "Whole Lotta Love" was beyond suggestive :) Some of the most pure, raw, blues influenced rock and roll ever. Everyone in Zeppelin was a beast of a musician!
I experienced Led Zeppelin live in concert in 1977 Day on the Green at Oakland Coliseum with my high school sweet heart and some friends. I kept my ticket stubs for years but eventually lost them. What golden memories for me that I will never forget. Thanks for the reactions
Yes, What you think he's singing about is exactly what he's singing about "A-way, way down inside I'm gonna give ya my love, I'm gonna give ya every inch of my love" and "I wanna be your backdoor man" can only be taken one way 😝
@@EaterOfBaconSandwiches Exactly. It is a line used in 50s and 60s black blues music and culture. The backdoor man creeps round the back while the husband is at work. When he's in the house going through the backdoor again is of course optional.
I think this used to be more of a double entendre than it sounds like now. In "Since I Been Loving You" there's a lyric that goes, "I open up my front door and hear my back door slam," meaning his woman's been cheating on him and the guy is escaping just as he gets home. So this could mean "I wanna be the guy you cheat with just for some hot sex," in addition to, "I'll put it in the butt."
Sexiest band members! Greatest band in history! I have loved them since 1970...the 4 best musicians to ever form a band! Watch their live performances!!
it was actual talent back then not garbage like miley/bieber and the talentless today that put perversion on display because they have no talent, in this generation of no IQs and no imagination, they can't comprehend what it was like to live in the 70s when a video game was pong or a board game, and a super 8 projector was your VCR, so many values were lost from that time period, a time when it was safe to leave your front door open to a screen door and have a floor fan bloing int the night air, to day you leave a door unlocked at night better have a pit bull or a pistol ready to use
I recommend watching the movie “The Song Remains the Same”. They dive into their personal lives a bit with dream like sequences along with live footage from the show. There’s a large section of footage showing Jimmy playing guitar with the bow. You’d dig it
It's a full concert at Madison square Garden filmed over 2 nights. I think in 76, one of the best ever. I saw TSRTS when it was in a theatre with the Rocky Horror Picture Show. You should also see Paul Williams, "The Phantom of the Paradise."
@@bigbri7519- The film entitled 'The Song Remains The Same' shows Led Zeppelin in concert at Madison Square Garden in 1973, but the film itself was not released to the public until 1976.
Dood I used to go to the Roxy in Toronto and watch this every weekend. I can play the whole album on bass. The Phantom played first and "Special to me" is one of my all time favorite movie songs. I don't know what I said to make you think I dont know this.
I have been listening to this band literally since I was five. My best friend's brother had come back from Vietnam and painted his room black and would go in there and just listen to music for hours and Led Zeppelin was on almost every day and we would go in there and listen too. We obviously had no clue what the lyrics meant but just the music was so cool. I've had a life long love of this band.
I was 22 years old and living in "The Jungle" in Honolulu in 1969 when Led Zeppelin came through. We had 2nd row center seats, 20 feet from the band. The bass notes would move your hair and clothing. As to "back door man", yes there was the blues connotation, but it also had the other meaning, even in those days. People did what people do. I also had the amazing good fortune of seeing live in that same venue Janis Joplin, Hendrix, The Doors, Quicksilver, Santana, Jethro Tull, Linda Ronstadt, and a dozen others. Life was amazing.
Have watched all of your YT reactions to Zeppelin and enjoyed them all. Hoping that you react to them more regularly. I love that you have an appreciation for their craft as musicians. Greatest rock band ever. Have subbed and looking forward to hearing more of your reactions.
Biscute, Once again you girl have impressed me, in that you pointed out that this was without auto-tune & looping. What Led Zeppelin had/has is a truck load of GOD given talent. Robert's voice is legendary and Jimmy is considered by many to be in the TOP 5 of rock guitarists. I mean Jimmy has been in the music business since the 1950's. I have seen Robert perform as a solo act. The man's voice is unreal GOOD! And most folks consider the late John Bonham the best rock drummer of ALL time, the BEST. And John Paul could play multiple instruments. Mix ALL of this together and you have Led Zeppelin..... One of the better bands ever. They have sold over 300 million albums worldwide..That's a lot of vinly!!! I have a few myself..... I hope you enjoy this masterpiece!!!!!! Rock and Roll.
The "Back Door Man" lyric is in classic blues songs more than one. Jim Morrison of "The Doors" liked that line also. You can check out their version of the song "Back Door Man" also written by Willie Dixon. "Whole Lotta' Love" was taken from the song "You need love", a blues song by Willie Dixon and recorded by blues legend Muddy Waters.
It IS classic, but it originally meant "side piece." It's far more of a double entendre now than I believe it was when Willie Dixon wrote it. While I'm willing to believe Plant meant it as a double entendre, I'm equally willing to believe he didn't.
If it weren't for so many great songs of their own, you could refer to them as a cover band. As per google: "In 1985, Willie Dixon took Led Zeppelin to court over their song "Whole Lotta Love," whose lyrics were adapted from the Muddy Waters song "You Need Love" (written by Dixon). They settled out of court in Dixon's favor, and subsequent releases of the song attribute Dixon." They didn't write nobody's fault but mine either. I was shocked when I first found all this out.
Love it that young people have moved past Justin fuckin' Beiber to take a look at bands like Led Zeppelin. Black Sabbath, KISS, Judas Priest, etc. This shit is the real shit. Not fate auto tune crap. THIS IS REAL!!!
In ‘77, Zeppelin was my go to 8 track tape when cruising in my Mustang. Good times, bad times! 😉 I could tell you were in to Whole Lotta Love when you started twirling your hair. Cool first time video!
I saw them when they came through Dallas, TX on this tour and Page was playing his guitar with a violin bow and the sound was quadrophonic, going around the arena in a circle
They buried one of the best drum grooves ever in a song called “fool in the rain.” You should listen to the drummer, Jon Bonham, play his halftime shuffle on his own. Then you can make it out in the song.
Yes, Jimmy is using a cello bow on his guitar. First one to do it that I know of. They took some old blues songs and turned them into fiery bangers. The captions say "Want to whole lotta love" when they should say "Wanna whole lotta love."
Eddie Phillips in another Brit band called creation was using a violin bow before Jimmy, and check out The Small Faces You Need Lovin and see where Zep got the idea for their version of this tune.Not knocking Zep, love them, but facts are facts.
There are SO MANY kick ass Zeppelin songs, but THIS song is very close to the top of the list, if not, the very top. Must listen: 1) Ten Years Gone 2) In My Time of Dying 3) D'yer Mak'er 4) Nobody's Fault but Mine 5) What is and What Should Never Be 6) For Your Life (they only played this song live once in 2007 w/Jason Bonham) 7) Heartbreaker & Living Loving Maid (She's Just a Woman) must be heard together btw 8) No Quarter 9) Hey Hey , What Can I Do (not on ANY album, released as a single only) 10) Traveling Riverside Blues after you check these songs out, YOU also will realize the incredible talent in this band! Robert Plant is arguably the greatest lead singer of all-time and he's the weak link in this SUPERGROUP. Jimmy, Bonzo.& JPJ are the best there ever was or ever will be imo. Just to get you started, LOL !!!!!
For those who don`t know what electronic device Jimmy Page used to make those strange sounds at Whole Lotta Love: search UA-cam with "Led Zeppelin: The Song Remains the Same - Whole Lotta Love Clip". You might be surprised to see what it is and how he uses it. I certainly was when I saw it the first time.
My favorite son off of LZ 2 is the song Thank You! They encompassed the whole spectrum of Music. Give Thank You a listen; you will be amazed, just sayin' 👀😉
anyone remember their first time hearing WHOLE LOTTA? I do, was in Dad's car, 1966 Impala fastback White on light blue interior, I was 10 years old in 1969. I never dreamed I'd be a 15/16/17 yr old seeing LZ Live in the mid/late 70's.
jimmy page literally created sounds. on this song, he uses HIS reverse-echo, he actually invented the technique. he not only adds in the echo of the guitar, but he places it 'ahead' of the main sound, rather than following it. and remember, this was before computers and shit. it was done with tape recorders, recording the guitar, turning the tape over, to add the echo, then turning it over again, to have the echo preceeding, rather than following. and he played with mics, etc, lots of stuff. he was a genius, and things like these are what adds to just how great of a guitarist he was. he was soo much more than just a guitar player.
Whole Lotta Love came out in 1969 and is partly based on You need Love written by Willie Dixon and recorded by Muddy Waters. Roberts Plant's version leaves you open mouthed by the explicit and sexual references to hot steamy carnal love.🔥
Biss sweetie, yes, that is a bow on an electric guitar. 🤣Anyway, this song always makes me think about the Woodstock Music Festival in 1969 even though Led Zeppelin had only been around for a year at that time and had nothing to do with the festival. I guess it's just the style of the music.... 😎 As always, BIG HUGS from Tennessee, USA! 😍👍
The line that makes this exactly what you think it is, and what the meaning behind the entire song is... "I'm gonna give you every inch of my love" No mistaking that meaning. Zepplin has always been very Sensual and sexual. The Lemon Song is another. so many... Dazed and Confused.... ect
Good eye with the cello bow ! Most don't pick that up and most of those wouldn't know what it is anyway. And really good comment ('glad you stopped the vid rather than to talk over it) that this was live with NO AUTO-TUNE, no over-dubbing, no sampling, no BS. The channel cross-fades were mastered in the studio. I love it. I love the sound-stage. Definate headphones song. And yes, tambourine. And at the center of a drummer's brass cymbal, there is a rise, a mound which when struck gives a ringign sound - people speak of "riding the bell" - counting out the beat, hitting that. 'Sounds like a bell. And, no, it's not just you: this song is highly sexually charged. When this was released, i think we just took it in stride. Suavé. We understood it perfectly, but we didn't act like 4th graders; i watch millennials react to "every inch of my love", and it's like their house is on fire. I really love your spontaneity. Good reaction. I'm subscribing now.
Great reaction ❤ you should react to since I’ve been loving you off the Led Zeppelin 3 album or the live version from Madison square garden 1973. Just pick the one that has the most views. You can’t go wrong. I promise that you’ll be totally amazed at the vocals and guitar work
Please react to Dazed and Confused from Madison Square Garden in 1973 to get the full Zep experience. There you will see the violin bow being used. It's my favourite Zep musical piece and I listen to it at least once a week. The only other song I could compare it to would be Rush's 2112. Both are well worth a listen.
The swarm of bees sound is provided by a theramin, an electronic device Jimmy saw Spirit using when Zep toured with them early in 69. Also used on Good Vibrations by Beach Boys
Actually it was a Theremin that made those sounds. However, the guitarist did use a violin bow on the guitar for Dazed and Confused, How many more Times
Yeah, he's using a violin bow on the guitar. He also used this electronic weird device called a "Theremin" in this song too. You can look it up on youtube. He used the bow in the song "Dazed and Confused" also. As for the studio trickery stuff they did have a few effects pedals you could use for the guitar, but at the time they recorded the first record you had "8 tracks" on a tape machine that's it. This was like 1969. Nowadays you have unlimited tracks and the average recording probably uses over 24 tracks for one song. Also, you had to use a real "Echo Chamber" to get reverb. Some large studios had these huge plate reverb devices. (You can look that up too).
Many of Zepp's early, and very successful songs, were, originally, classic Black blues that were adopted by Brits and Euros once the Blues were ignored by the majority of American audiences in the 1930s and 1940s. Over the course of 20 years, '40s to '60s, Brits and Euros became emotionally attached to the old blues masters' output BUT in the 1960s and throughout the '70s, those old blues ballads and "tears in your beers" songs that usually had only an upright bass, a small drum kit, and a 6-string acoustic guitar developed some muscle. The blues went to Europe rather plain, but they returned to the U.S. FULLY ELECTRIFIED. John Mayall, The Rolling Stones, and especially Zepp, plus so many more British Invasion groups added strength and helped the new audiences develop a deeper appreciation of the heart of the blues.
This was used as the theme for Top of the Pops, a chart show on British TV. And if you have a dirty mind so do I 😉 This song has been on my playlist since the days of cassette tapes!!
Bisscute, the original was recorded by Muddy Waters in the 50's, and he did the same "Car nose" with an acoustic guitar!! But OMG, u shoulda seen the parents freak abut Zepplin's version...Boycotts, record burnings, grounding thier kids for listening to it--"They're druggies, perverts, Devil Worshippers" etc, But Zepplin was in full flight, grabbing FM radio and the rock world by storm..Nothing was gonna stop 'em by this point.
Yes Jimmy Page is using a bow on his guitar. He first started doing it with the Yardbirds and when he formed Led Zeppelin he did it in several songs as well.
Well, Bisscute. I know what you were thinking, and I think you were right! Very suggestive song - The strange sounds you heard, without all the modern day sound effects, are made by rubbing things along the guitar and bass strings. In my youth, my band played this song and I used my cigarette lighter on the bass strings. The only special effects, of the day, were provided by a tape driven echo chamber. Great reaction which brought back lots of memories from fifty years ago! Keep up the good work.❤
Madalina your reaction was the same as mine when I first heard this song. I knew exactly what they were singing about. That hot, sultry, sexy, sensual sound of Led Zeppelin is unmistaken. Funny story. When I was in my early 20s the band I was in mixed our original songs with cover songs like this. After rehearsal one night, it had to be about 11pm in the evening, and we decided to get some food at a diner (restaurant), and they played music over speakers. We knew the owner's son who managed the diner, and one of my bandmates gave him a CD that we burned of our rehearsal so he could play Whole Lotta Love to get his opinion. The diner was mostly empty that late so he played it. Shortly after the song began, they seated 3 old ladies at the table next to us. They were saying ... "Oh My" ... "WOW" and one even said, "I haven't felt this much heat since the summer time." at the part where I had to sing Ah Ah Ah Ah Ah.... I was laughing so hard that I was crying. They had no idea it was us performing the song. My drummer Chris completely lost it he was laughing so hard. He could barely breathe and one of the old ladies asked him if she could help him, and that made him laugh even harder. Great memories from this song. Thanks for sharing your reaction. BTW. If you want a very sexy Led Zeppelin song listen to their song ... The Lemon Song. 😛
While Jimmy Page uses the cello bow on "Dazed and Confused" and "How Many More Times", he uses an electronic instrument called a theramin to create the swirling, screaming sounds.in the psychedelic middle part of "Whole Lotta Love".
I grew up with this music. My father only had one of those huge tape recorders in the 70s and taped the songs from the radio similar to what I did 10 years later with cassette tapes :D
As usual, you cut right to it when you dissect something. And you're right, no 'autotune' BS or some computer track, Zeppelin was just RAW and GOO'OOD! The band also had TREMENDOUS presence, from Bonzo, Robert, Jimmy, even JPJ in his understated way. Speaking of presence, with the exception of Elvis, I don't know if there was a rock front man who made women lose their minds like Robert Plant did. I once watched an interview when Robert was in his 50s--still looking good--and a VERY attractive Brazilian female reporter/fan started interviewing him. If you get a chance to watch it on UA-cam, you can see the obvious BIG TIME flirting between the two of them, and I'm pretty sure they both ended up having sex lol.
Good comment on the limitation of technical options back in the day. But hey, go even further back to the days of good old acoustic blues. They all only had an acoustic guitar, yet trying to create a sound of their own with it. Fascinating stuff.
Many of the suggestive lyrics are taken directly from the original blues artist, like "squeeze my lemon" from Robert Johnson. A lot of it is Robert just trying to emulate his heroes. Great reactions! Best band ever 👍.
Led Zeppelin came on the scene at the end of the 1960s, in the era of "free love" and "sexual liberation." A lot of their songs were filled with strong sexual innuendo and very overt sexual themes. In some ways they were very reflective of the youth culture of their times, and parents of teens in the 1960s hated them for that. Others have already commented on some of the specific lyrics, so I don't have anything to add. I just wanted to comment on the musical instrumentation--in the middle of the song when they play the break, you are correct that the video shows Jimmy Page playing the guitar with a violin bow. However, I believe that in the studio the instrument they used to get that sort of "whale song" sound was actually a theramin. The theramin was an instrument that was used experimentally in rock music, but also was used to create a lot of creepy sound effects. It had a couple of dials and two antennas, and you "played" it by waving your hands in proximity to the antennas, which caused it to create electronic hums and squeals that would change in both volume and pitch depending on how close your hands were to each antenna. I think there are some UA-cam videos you can find to show people demonstrating how it's played. Great reaction. Loving your channel and I am working my way through your back catalog. One of these days I hope I will catch your live stream, but that happens right in the middle of my workday here in the USA.
Jimmy is using a Theremin not the violin bow in the Freak Out section of this song. The violin bow was used early on in How Many More Times and then more prominently in Dazed and Confused which is what you are seeing in the video.
Biscuit this was one of the first records that was in "stereo" before this everything was in mono. The sound goes back and forth from left to right in the middle of the song was new technology. You should listen to "Stairway to Heaven."
Led Zeppelin quote "Gonna give you every inch of my love". Shakespeare quote *_Charmian_* "Well, if you were but an inch of fortune better than I, where would you choose it? _* IRAS*_ "Not in my husbands nose". This from Anthony and Cleopatra. I think the British invented inuendo. Oh please react to "Since I've Been Lovin You" LZ studio version. You will melt.
This is a cool video, it's the studio version of the song with footage from one or more live shows. I only mention that because while Jimmy Page did play his guitar with a bow live, in studio the sounds made during that portion of the song come from an instrument called a theremin. The only way I can describe it is that it makes really eerie sounds and you play it by waving it around like a magic wand. Great reaction video, yeah this song is the most explicitly sexy for sure.
I congratulate your channel, friend. If you had been born in those years, we would have danced together for sure: Note: I'm not that old, I still don't dance in my private meetings this type of musical genre, Lep Zeppelin always a great band. Forever
@@BisscuteReacts Thank you, for putting your analysis to said band, hopefully we continue to enjoy their songs (from now on only through this route, or other digital media). On the other hand, you are beautiful, delighted to meet you through this medium. A kiss and hug.

I'm gonna give ya my love, I'm gonna give ya every inch of my love" and "I wanna be your backdoor man" can only be taken one way 😝

Thanks for the video
Your reaction to the "back door man" line was so damn funny. Loved it. Great reaction to a great band/song. Peace.
Thank youuu
I think the line about giving every inch of my love is a dead giveaway about what this song is about.
@@EaterOfBaconSandwiches Exactly. It is a line used in 50s and 60s black blues music and culture. The backdoor man creeps round the back while the husband is at work. When he's in the house going through the backdoor again is of course optional.
she hasn't heard "in throught the out door yet."
I think this used to be more of a double entendre than it sounds like now. In "Since I Been Loving You" there's a lyric that goes, "I open up my front door and hear my back door slam," meaning his woman's been cheating on him and the guy is escaping just as he gets home. So this could mean "I wanna be the guy you cheat with just for some hot sex," in addition to, "I'll put it in the butt."

it was actual talent back then not garbage like miley/bieber and the talentless today that put perversion on display because they have no talent, in this generation of no IQs and no imagination, they can't comprehend what it was like to live in the 70s when a video game was pong or a board game, and a super 8 projector was your VCR, so many values were lost from that time period, a time when it was safe to leave your front door open to a screen door and have a floor fan bloing int the night air, to day you leave a door unlocked at night better have a pit bull or a pistol ready to use
She is so fun to watch.
It's not her fault she's so bisscute
Right. We’re going to have to try to live with it.
Dud she's something else
I recommend watching the movie “The Song Remains the Same”. They dive into their personal lives a bit with dream like sequences along with live footage from the show. There’s a large section of footage showing Jimmy playing guitar with the bow. You’d dig it
Great version the one from MSG in 1973 followed by the Rain Song both played in sequence
Yes!!
It's a full concert at Madison square Garden filmed over 2 nights. I think in 76, one of the best ever. I saw TSRTS when it was in a theatre with the Rocky Horror Picture Show. You should also see Paul Williams, "The Phantom of the Paradise."
@@bigbri7519- The film entitled 'The Song Remains The Same' shows Led Zeppelin in concert at Madison Square Garden in 1973, but the film itself was not released to the public until 1976.
Dood I used to go to the Roxy in Toronto and watch this every weekend. I can play the whole album on bass. The Phantom played first and "Special to me" is one of my all time favorite movie songs. I don't know what I said to make you think I dont know this.
7:35 🤣🤣🤣 I think even Biss can't help but blush at Roberts demands! Haha. Brilliant.
An aside in just a whisper... "It's not just me!" lol
You continue to deliver the best lines in your reactions! hahaha 🤣🤣🤣
Haha Thank you
I saw them live back in 1976. No opening act. 3 hour show. Incredible.
No weak links in this band…..top notch everything.
I love seeing people being introduced to new music❤❤❤
Your reaction to the lyric “your back door man” really made me laugh! Love your videos!
I have been listening to this band literally since I was five. My best friend's brother had come back from Vietnam and painted his room black and would go in there and just listen to music for hours and Led Zeppelin was on almost every day and we would go in there and listen too. We obviously had no clue what the lyrics meant but just the music was so cool. I've had a life long love of this band.
I was 22 years old and living in "The Jungle" in Honolulu in 1969 when Led Zeppelin came through. We had 2nd row center seats, 20 feet from the band. The bass notes would move your hair and clothing. As to "back door man", yes there was the blues connotation, but it also had the other meaning, even in those days. People did what people do.
I also had the amazing good fortune of seeing live in that same venue Janis Joplin, Hendrix, The Doors, Quicksilver, Santana, Jethro Tull, Linda Ronstadt, and a dozen others. Life was amazing.
If you want to see Jimmy shred that bow check out "Dazed and Confused" from their 1973 concert movie "The Song Remains the Same".
Yes...28 minutes of nothing you will ever see again...28 minutes of pure magic and magnificence! Jimmy Page is the best guitarist on the planet!
@@juliemanarin4127 maybe so, I partly agree.
I'm also a big fan of Emerson, Lake & Palmer, Karn Evil 9 runs about 30 minutes on Brain Salad Surgery.
Any live performance of Led Zeppelin "Dazed and Confused" is highly recommended.
Have watched all of your YT reactions to Zeppelin and enjoyed them all. Hoping that you react to them more regularly. I love that you have an appreciation for their craft as musicians. Greatest rock band ever. Have subbed and looking forward to hearing more of your reactions.
Biscute,
Once again you girl have impressed me, in that you pointed out that this was without auto-tune & looping. What Led Zeppelin had/has is a truck load of GOD given talent. Robert's voice is legendary and Jimmy is considered by many to be in the TOP 5 of rock guitarists. I mean Jimmy has been in the music business since the 1950's. I have seen Robert perform as a solo act. The man's voice is unreal GOOD! And most folks consider the late John Bonham the best rock drummer of ALL time, the BEST. And John Paul could play multiple instruments. Mix ALL of this together and you have Led Zeppelin..... One of the better bands ever. They have sold over 300 million albums worldwide..That's a lot of vinly!!! I have a few myself..... I hope you enjoy this masterpiece!!!!!! Rock and Roll.
Whole Lotta babies we're made during singing of this song!!!
They were real top of the line classic rock musicians who drew their style of music from the blues, rock n roll, folk music and classical music.
The "Back Door Man" lyric is in classic blues songs more than one. Jim Morrison of "The Doors" liked that line also. You can check out their version of the song "Back Door Man" also written by Willie Dixon. "Whole Lotta' Love" was taken from the song "You need love", a blues song by Willie Dixon and recorded by blues legend Muddy Waters.
It IS classic, but it originally meant "side piece." It's far more of a double entendre now than I believe it was when Willie Dixon wrote it. While I'm willing to believe Plant meant it as a double entendre, I'm equally willing to believe he didn't.
If it weren't for so many great songs of their own, you could refer to them as a cover band. As per google: "In 1985, Willie Dixon took Led Zeppelin to court over their song "Whole Lotta Love," whose lyrics were adapted from the Muddy Waters song "You Need Love" (written by Dixon). They settled out of court in Dixon's favor, and subsequent releases of the song attribute Dixon." They didn't write nobody's fault but mine either. I was shocked when I first found all this out.
Love it that young people have moved past Justin fuckin' Beiber to take a look at bands like Led Zeppelin. Black Sabbath, KISS, Judas Priest, etc. This shit is the real shit. Not fate auto tune crap. THIS IS REAL!!!
LOL always love seeing the reaction from the Ladies as soon as Plant appears 🙂
In ‘77, Zeppelin was my go to 8 track tape when cruising in my Mustang. Good times, bad times! 😉
I could tell you were in to Whole Lotta Love when you started twirling your hair. Cool first time video!
Thank you ❤️
I saw them when they came through Dallas, TX on this tour and Page was playing his guitar with a violin bow and the sound was quadrophonic, going around the arena in a circle
They buried one of the best drum grooves ever in a song called “fool in the rain.” You should listen to the drummer, Jon Bonham, play his halftime shuffle on his own. Then you can make it out in the song.
So fun watching you react to good music! Led Zeppelin is in my top three of all time. Them, Pink Floyd and TOOL. All the best!
Give led Zeppelin " trampled under foot " a try ...it's 🔥🔥
Yes, Jimmy is using a cello bow on his guitar. First one to do it that I know of. They took some old blues songs and turned them into fiery bangers. The captions say "Want to whole lotta love" when they should say "Wanna whole lotta love."
Actually in the live one at MSG he was playing a Theramin!
Eddie Phillips in another Brit band called creation was using a violin bow before Jimmy, and check out The Small Faces You Need Lovin and see where Zep got the idea for their version of this tune.Not knocking Zep, love them, but facts are facts.
There are SO MANY kick ass Zeppelin songs, but THIS song is very close to the top of the list, if not, the very top.
Must listen:
1) Ten Years Gone
2) In My Time of Dying
3) D'yer Mak'er
4) Nobody's Fault but Mine
5) What is and What Should Never Be
6) For Your Life (they only played this song live once in 2007 w/Jason Bonham)
7) Heartbreaker & Living Loving Maid (She's Just a Woman) must be heard together btw
8) No Quarter
9) Hey Hey , What Can I Do (not on ANY album, released as a single only)
10) Traveling Riverside Blues
after you check these songs out, YOU also will realize the incredible talent in this band! Robert Plant is arguably the greatest lead singer of all-time and he's the weak link in this SUPERGROUP. Jimmy, Bonzo.& JPJ are the best there ever was or ever will be imo.
Just to get you started, LOL !!!!!
Great the newer generation listening studying and playing the masters music and songsor rock !❤
Can't wait to watch this reaction. I always thank my parents for introducing me to music like this. U are the best Biss 🤘❤️
There is very much an undertone in all their songs, for sure!
2:00 Finally a fan who GETS it! Exactly why Zep were so great, so unique.
They are amazing ❤️
For those who don`t know what electronic device Jimmy Page used to make those strange sounds at Whole Lotta Love: search UA-cam with "Led Zeppelin: The Song Remains the Same - Whole Lotta Love Clip". You might be surprised to see what it is and how he uses it. I certainly was when I saw it the first time.
Seeing a beautiful young woman reacting to the music I loved and grew up with, takes me back to my younger days. You have a timeless beauty .
Page used a electronic box he invented. I seen Plant Page back in 90s. Just awesome. You have to hear it live.
Oh yeah Led Zep was very suggestive, saw it plenty of concerts back then
My favorite son off of LZ 2 is the song Thank You! They encompassed the whole spectrum of Music. Give Thank You a listen; you will be amazed, just sayin' 👀😉
Noted ♥
anyone remember their first time hearing WHOLE LOTTA? I do, was in Dad's car, 1966 Impala fastback White on light blue interior, I was 10 years old in 1969. I never dreamed I'd be a 15/16/17 yr old seeing LZ Live in the mid/late 70's.
jimmy page literally created sounds. on this song, he uses HIS reverse-echo, he actually invented the technique. he not only adds in the echo of the guitar, but he places it 'ahead' of the main sound, rather than following it. and remember, this was before computers and shit. it was done with tape recorders, recording the guitar, turning the tape over, to add the echo, then turning it over again, to have the echo preceeding, rather than following. and he played with mics, etc, lots of stuff. he was a genius, and things like these are what adds to just how great of a guitarist he was. he was soo much more than just a guitar player.
Loved your analysis and comments. Some of the best!
Just like the Doors song " Back Door Man" it refers to a lover sneaking in the back of the house.
Nothing can be more rock & roll than that!
Right?
im sorry biscutte but ur dance moves r impeccable but ur face expression when page took the violen bow to his guitar is hysterical. love it
Whole Lotta Love came out in 1969 and is partly based on You need Love written by Willie Dixon and recorded by Muddy Waters. Roberts Plant's version leaves you open mouthed by the explicit and sexual references to hot steamy carnal love.🔥
He does have his way of expressing things hahaha
Biss sweetie, yes, that is a bow on an electric guitar. 🤣Anyway, this song always makes me think about the Woodstock Music Festival in 1969 even though Led Zeppelin had only been around for a year at that time and had nothing to do with the festival. I guess it's just the style of the music.... 😎 As always, BIG HUGS from Tennessee, USA! 😍👍
The line that makes this exactly what you think it is, and what the meaning behind the entire song is... "I'm gonna give you every inch of my love" No mistaking that meaning. Zepplin has always been very Sensual and sexual. The Lemon Song is another. so many... Dazed and Confused.... ect
Good eye with the cello bow !
Most don't pick that up and most of those wouldn't know what it is anyway.
And really good comment ('glad you stopped the vid rather than to talk over it) that this was live with NO AUTO-TUNE, no over-dubbing, no sampling, no BS.
The channel cross-fades were mastered in the studio. I love it. I love the sound-stage. Definate headphones song.
And yes, tambourine. And at the center of a drummer's brass cymbal, there is a rise, a mound which when struck gives a ringign sound - people speak of "riding the bell" - counting out the beat, hitting that.
'Sounds like a bell.
And, no, it's not just you: this song is highly sexually charged. When this was released, i think we just took it in stride. Suavé. We understood it perfectly, but we didn't act like 4th graders; i watch millennials react to "every inch of my love", and it's like their house is on fire.
I really love your spontaneity.
Good reaction. I'm subscribing now.
Thank you so much
They were the best ever I was lucky to grow up listening to them in this era . Still my fav. And love you Biscute .
such a joy seeing youngsters find Led Zeppelin good, "sexy", "dirty" still. Young lady you give hope for the newest generation
Spicy lyrics were something zeppelin did a few times through there early career. You have a beautiful soft voice very relaxing
Lo que no es normal con Led Zeppelin....es sentirse normal
Great reaction ❤ you should react to since I’ve been loving you off the Led Zeppelin 3 album or the live version from Madison square garden 1973. Just pick the one that has the most views. You can’t go wrong. I promise that you’ll be totally amazed at the vocals and guitar work
Great suggestion!❤️
Please react to Dazed and Confused from Madison Square Garden in 1973 to get the full Zep experience. There you will see the violin bow being used. It's my favourite Zep musical piece and I listen to it at least once a week. The only other song I could compare it to would be Rush's 2112. Both are well worth a listen.
The swarm of bees sound is provided by a theramin, an electronic device Jimmy saw Spirit using when Zep toured with them early in 69. Also used on Good Vibrations by Beach Boys
Seen them live in 1975 as a teen! Always loved the Band.
I saw them in Chicago on that tour. Still remember it like it was yesterday.
Actually it was a Theremin that made those sounds. However, the guitarist did use a violin bow on the guitar for Dazed and Confused, How many more Times
Yeah, he's using a violin bow on the guitar. He also used this electronic weird device called a "Theremin" in this song too. You can look it up on youtube. He used the bow in the song "Dazed and Confused" also.
As for the studio trickery stuff they did have a few effects pedals you could use for the guitar, but at the time they recorded the first record you had "8 tracks" on a tape machine that's it. This was like 1969. Nowadays you have unlimited tracks and the average recording probably uses over 24 tracks for one song. Also, you had to use a real "Echo Chamber" to get reverb. Some large studios had these huge plate reverb devices. (You can look that up too).
Many of Zepp's early, and very successful songs, were, originally, classic Black blues that were adopted by Brits and Euros once the Blues were ignored by the majority of American audiences in the 1930s and 1940s. Over the course of 20 years, '40s to '60s, Brits and Euros became emotionally attached to the old blues masters' output BUT in the 1960s and throughout the '70s, those old blues ballads and "tears in your beers" songs that usually had only an upright bass, a small drum kit, and a 6-string acoustic guitar developed some muscle. The blues went to Europe rather plain, but they returned to the U.S. FULLY ELECTRIFIED. John Mayall, The Rolling Stones, and especially Zepp, plus so many more British Invasion groups added strength and helped the new audiences develop a deeper appreciation of the heart of the blues.
This was used as the theme for Top of the Pops, a chart show on British TV. And if you have a dirty mind so do I 😉
This song has been on my playlist since the days of cassette tapes!!
Bisscute, the original was recorded by Muddy Waters in the 50's, and he did the same "Car nose" with an acoustic guitar!! But OMG, u shoulda seen the parents freak abut Zepplin's version...Boycotts, record burnings, grounding thier kids for listening to it--"They're druggies, perverts, Devil Worshippers" etc, But Zepplin was in full flight, grabbing FM radio and the rock world by storm..Nothing was gonna stop 'em by this point.
Yes Jimmy Page is using a bow on his guitar. He first started doing it with the Yardbirds and when he formed Led Zeppelin he did it in several songs as well.
Well, Bisscute. I know what you were thinking, and I think you were right! Very suggestive song - The strange sounds you heard, without all the modern day sound effects, are made by rubbing things along the guitar and bass strings. In my youth, my band played this song and I used my cigarette lighter on the bass strings. The only special effects, of the day, were provided by a tape driven echo chamber. Great reaction which brought back lots of memories from fifty years ago! Keep up the good work.❤
Thank you
Madalina your reaction was the same as mine when I first heard this song. I knew exactly what they were singing about. That hot, sultry, sexy, sensual sound of Led Zeppelin is unmistaken.
Funny story. When I was in my early 20s the band I was in mixed our original songs with cover songs like this. After rehearsal one night, it had to be about 11pm in the evening, and we decided to get some food at a diner (restaurant), and they played music over speakers. We knew the owner's son who managed the diner, and one of my bandmates gave him a CD that we burned of our rehearsal so he could play Whole Lotta Love to get his opinion. The diner was mostly empty that late so he played it. Shortly after the song began, they seated 3 old ladies at the table next to us. They were saying ... "Oh My" ... "WOW" and one even said, "I haven't felt this much heat since the summer time." at the part where I had to sing Ah Ah Ah Ah Ah.... I was laughing so hard that I was crying. They had no idea it was us performing the song. My drummer Chris completely lost it he was laughing so hard. He could barely breathe and one of the old ladies asked him if she could help him, and that made him laugh even harder. Great memories from this song. Thanks for sharing your reaction.
BTW. If you want a very sexy Led Zeppelin song listen to their song ... The Lemon Song. 😛
While Jimmy Page uses the cello bow on "Dazed and Confused" and "How Many More Times", he uses an electronic instrument called a theramin to create the swirling, screaming sounds.in the psychedelic middle part of "Whole Lotta Love".
I grew up with this music. My father only had one of those huge tape recorders in the 70s and taped the songs from the radio similar to what I did 10 years later with cassette tapes :D
As usual, you cut right to it when you dissect something. And you're right, no 'autotune' BS or some computer track, Zeppelin was just RAW and GOO'OOD! The band also had TREMENDOUS presence, from Bonzo, Robert, Jimmy, even JPJ in his understated way. Speaking of presence, with the exception of Elvis, I don't know if there was a rock front man who made women lose their minds like Robert Plant did. I once watched an interview when Robert was in his 50s--still looking good--and a VERY attractive Brazilian female reporter/fan started interviewing him. If you get a chance to watch it on UA-cam, you can see the obvious BIG TIME flirting between the two of them, and I'm pretty sure they both ended up having sex lol.
It's a nice song! I really like the Stairway to Heaven song but this one is nice too!
Over the hills and far away great zeppelin song.
Good comment on the limitation of technical options back in the day. But hey, go even further back to the days of good old acoustic blues. They all only had an acoustic guitar, yet trying to create a sound of their own with it. Fascinating stuff.
Many of the suggestive lyrics are taken directly from the original blues artist, like "squeeze my lemon" from Robert Johnson. A lot of it is Robert just trying to emulate his heroes. Great reactions! Best band ever 👍.
Led Zeppelin came on the scene at the end of the 1960s, in the era of "free love" and "sexual liberation." A lot of their songs were filled with strong sexual innuendo and very overt sexual themes. In some ways they were very reflective of the youth culture of their times, and parents of teens in the 1960s hated them for that. Others have already commented on some of the specific lyrics, so I don't have anything to add.
I just wanted to comment on the musical instrumentation--in the middle of the song when they play the break, you are correct that the video shows Jimmy Page playing the guitar with a violin bow. However, I believe that in the studio the instrument they used to get that sort of "whale song" sound was actually a theramin. The theramin was an instrument that was used experimentally in rock music, but also was used to create a lot of creepy sound effects. It had a couple of dials and two antennas, and you "played" it by waving your hands in proximity to the antennas, which caused it to create electronic hums and squeals that would change in both volume and pitch depending on how close your hands were to each antenna. I think there are some UA-cam videos you can find to show people demonstrating how it's played.
Great reaction. Loving your channel and I am working my way through your back catalog. One of these days I hope I will catch your live stream, but that happens right in the middle of my workday here in the USA.
Need to do Since I Been Loving You, live from their 1973 MSG concert!
He wants to give you every inch of his love!! Indeed!!😍
I loved your smile when he said "shake for me girl - I wanna be your back door man!" (and they WEREN'T singing about buildings) You go, girl!
Thank you. I remember the best relics of rock music with you.
I am trying to catch the best music out there
Imagine being a 12 yr old hearing this in 1969 😎 #blessed
Just like what it is. I once recommended this song as the BGM of VW Golf 6 GTI commercial one decade ago.
The GOATS! The make all others look mediocre! The Best Ever!😎👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏 They we’re organic! PERIOD! You hit it right on the head!
Jimmy is using a Theremin not the violin bow in the Freak Out section of this song. The violin bow was used early on in How Many More Times and then more prominently in Dazed and Confused which is what you are seeing in the video.
Yes! Jimmy was using a Cello Bow to Play his Guitar!
Biscuit this was one of the first records that was in "stereo" before this everything was in mono. The sound goes back and forth from left to right in the middle of the song was new technology. You should listen to "Stairway to Heaven."
I see, i already reacted to stairway to heaven. feel free to check it out here ua-cam.com/video/JE_ia22SX8A/v-deo.html ❤❤
The racing car sound is perhaps the simplest effect that Page does, its simply scraping the pick against the strings up or down.
Led Zeppelin quote "Gonna give you every inch of my love". Shakespeare quote *_Charmian_* "Well, if you were but an inch of fortune better than I, where would you choose it? _* IRAS*_ "Not in my husbands nose". This from Anthony and Cleopatra. I think the British invented inuendo. Oh please react to "Since I've Been Lovin You" LZ studio version. You will melt.
This is a cool video, it's the studio version of the song with footage from one or more live shows. I only mention that because while Jimmy Page did play his guitar with a bow live, in studio the sounds made during that portion of the song come from an instrument called a theremin. The only way I can describe it is that it makes really eerie sounds and you play it by waving it around like a magic wand.
Great reaction video, yeah this song is the most explicitly sexy for sure.
More please. And I absolutely love your smile
I congratulate your channel, friend. If you had been born in those years, we would have danced together for sure: Note: I'm not that old, I still don't dance in my private meetings this type of musical genre, Lep Zeppelin always a great band. Forever
Wow, thank you❤️
@@BisscuteReacts Thank you, for putting your analysis to said band, hopefully we continue to enjoy their songs (from now on only through this route, or other digital media). On the other hand, you are beautiful, delighted to meet you through this medium. A kiss and hug.
