    Ann Wilson has one of the most powerful female voices. And her sister Nancy can play a mean guitar. This is one of the best tributes to Led Zeppelin with Ann & Nancy doing the classic song "Stairway To Heaven". No one else could have pulled it off as well. "Heart" have had so many great hits such as "Magic Man", "Crazy on You", "Barracuda", "What About Love", "Never", "Dog & Butterfly", "These Dreams" & "Alone".

    Besides being one of the best covers ever, Jason Bonham, John’s son, was playing the drums. LZ didn’t know he was going to be their to honor his father, that’s why they look so surprised. And the bowler hats that John wore were on the choir. Nice touch. Great reaction!!

    Before anybody gets too far into this - please be reminded that Ann did the singing and Nancy played a little rhythm guitar.
    Props go to Ann for a great job singing a song she has been singing since the first days of the band "Heart".
    Ann and Nancy did NOT do any of the orchestration, arrangement, or production.
    The majority of the praise must go to the unnamed person who did the musical arrangement, the fabulous musicians and choirs (especially guitarist Wayne Fontaine), and the producer who brought it all together.

      You made an accusation that I was a "party pooper" when I stated the facts about the production. I did not malign anybody's participation. I stated that Ann deserved props for her rendition. I also brought up the fact that the production was awesome and that the arranger, orchestrator, and producer(s) did a spectacular job. And for that you called me "a party pooper".

    I love this tribute. I love how vocalists and instruments begin to evolve throughout then the orchestra and choir. What a experience to have been there. Although poor Robert, although I am sure he loved this cover by Heart, he has learned to hate Stairway to Heaven. Too many sad memories, loss of his son and he was also involved in a bad accident during that time.

    Robert Plant and Jimmy Page wrote Stairway to Heaven. The woman singing and the woman playing the guitar are sisters. Ann and Nancy Wilson of "Heart". The guy on the drums is Jason Bonham, the son of the late John Bonham (drummer for Led Zeppelin) It always help to do the research before the reaction as you missed so much looking away to research on your phone.

    Great reaction, and that's from somebody who has watched dozens of reactions to this video. Two things for you to check out, if you wish. The first is the very thorough and technical reaction to this tribute by Fil on his YT channel "Wings of Pegasus". Not better than yours, just different. The other is to watch Nancy Wilson play the guitar intro for "Crazy on You". When Rick Beato was counting down his top 20 guitar intros, Nancy's intro was, like, number 14. But it was the only one that Rick shied away from personally demonstrating. He said that is was too difficult, so he just showed an amazing, amazing clip.

    Very similar feeling is when Carole King was a 2015 Kennedy Center Honor recipient and Aretha Franklin performed "A Natural Woman" at the ceremony in her honor. If you haven't seen it, SEE IT! I've just seen a few of your reaction videos tonight and now I'm afraid I might have a new addiction. I need to see which songs you have already reacted to but one I usually recommend is "Holding Back the Years by Simply Red. And I'm finding that it seems impossible that there was a time when certain songs hadn't existed. How could "Bridge Over Troubled Waters" have not existed at one point in time. It feels like it had to have been born with the universe.
