Agree completely. It's amazing watching Jimmy and JP rocking along, while Robert watches and analyzes. I always wonder what was going through Robert's mind as the back up vocals and choir joined in. A haunting addition akin to his STH montage in the movie. And lastly, that sustained final chord carried by all, was spine tingling. Not many ways to finish off one of the best songs ever recorded, but that was one of them.

Jason Bonham, son of the late John Henry "Bonzo" Bonham, shares a fateful coincidence with another son of another drummer. Ringo Starr's eldest Zak had been recruited by Oasis to be their concert drummer before Liam and Noel had their full-blown split. Zak played with Oasis and was also present with other sons of the Beatles when they eventually did a benefit concert covering their fathers' music. Jason Bonham eventually joined Oasis at some point when Zak had left or I could be confusing my timelines as to who joined Oasis first. Both sons of drummers became truly skilled drummers themselves.

Ok, I agree with part of your statement. But why did they leave part of the song out? Why did they need a massive choir to fill in? Because they can't pull the weight of what zeppelin could do even on a night they felt "off". And having them there doesn't change the fact that they needed to fit into time restraints and live up to media expectations. That's why bands like led zeppelin didn't get signed to contracts in the beginning. Because they were a round peg trying to fit into a square hole. Their songs were to long to fit onto album ("vinyl") sides. Where is that rebellious side of rock and roll anymore? It's not alive in the older guys anymore. I want that back, where is that now? Where is that fire? I seriously hope some newer generations find it, or we'll all be generations lost in space.......

I'm also 62 yrs old. ( male ) No one is a bigger fan of Led Zeppelin than I am. I've been playing ( guitar ) & singing this song ( at the same time ) for over 50 years ( as with most of the Zeppelin catalog, along with hundreds of other songs ). And that includes performing on stage for nearly 20 years. They completely cut out/omitted the most intricate & beautiful part of the guitar intro to this song, and jumped right into the lyrics. I would've much rather seen them perform "the Rain Song", which is FAR MORE difficult to play & perform vs Stairway.

Heart and Led Zeppelin were contemporaries. Looks like the Wilson sisters aged pretty well. You crushed it ladies!

This is unquestionably one the great performances of modern times - the way Nancy strums, Ann sings, Jason drums, the orchestra builds, the choir explodes, John Paul Jones nods, Jimmy Page smiles, and Robert Plant cries...........next level performance

Yes, it was because of Jason. The only drummer who could play "Stairway to Heaven" by Led Zeppelin correctly was the original drummer, Jon Bonham, who was Jason's father. This song requires control, finesse, and complex drum arrangements. Phil Collins attempted to play it during the Live Aid concert in 1985 to help the band get back on tour, but his performance failed terribly, resulting in the band never playing again. Therefore, for Jon Bonham's son to perform flawlessly in front of the band was an incredible sight to see. It was a true tribute to his father in many ways. Rest in peace, Jon Bonham.

A hundred backup singers, an entire orchestra , and Ann Wilson powers louder and clearer than all of it and sounds flawlessly natural Amazing singer. A true enigma.

That guitarist had to play one of the most legendary guitar solos in history directly to the man who wrote it. No pressure god damn

Brought chills down my spine. Always loved this song. Heart and all the singers did a wonderful job. I loved seeing Jimmy Page, Robert Plant and John Paul Jones looking clean cut and handsome.❤

Absolute goosebumps when that choir kicks in

I know that's a zeppelin song but Ann Wilson made that song hers that night. Much respect.

Led Zeppelin are notorious for not exactly loving it when people cover their songs. So the fact that they’re smiling like this, and Robert Plant actually cries, just goes to show you how incredible this arrangement of the song really is.

I think this is actually better than theirs. They have a full orchestra behind them. Zep are better with their instruments (Nancy is excellent, but... Jimmy Page? Who is better than him? There are contenders, but the only guy I definitely put ahead is dead 50+ years) but Ann's voice is better than any of the boys.

Can you imagine, Jason Bonham covering one of the most iconic songs of his dad’s career and being watched by his dad’s former bandmates. How much emotion must have been running through his veins.

This was my dad's favourite song, he would always listen to it, every morning he played it. Naively I knew this would be his funeral song one day, in a long time I hoped. After a 5 year battle with cancer, last month, as i've always imagined, we played it during his funeral. This tribute song will always hold the biggest place in my heart as I will always feel his presence when listening to it. I love you dad, can't wait to listen to it together one day.
