" And that's how icons do it". Words of wisdom Angela.

Most people think that STheaven or Kashmir is the crowning glory for Jimmy but in my opinion this is the height of creative genius. His chord structure is unique and not found anywhere else. WOW. So glad to chose the live version. It shows his musical ability to the fullest.

Agree. I remember buying this album, hearing this song, and I was in stunned disbelief a song so beautiful could exist. I tried to learn to play it on guitar for years till finally it was tabbed out and it's in an alternate tuning that makes it pretty easy to play. But yes the most beautiful acoustic song ever, IMHO.

Agreed. This live version with the orchestral accompaniment, can't be topped. The Rain Song showcases Page's guitar talent but in acoustic form, showing he's equally blessed in his genius (with those amazing variant tunings) on either electric or acoustic guitar. The Rain Song is actually quite sparing in lyrics, but Plant delivers them in his unmatched glory to bring the seasons alive. All made possible by a little Rain (that) must fall ... Going to California, also an amazing song featuring collaboration with guitarist Page and John Paul Jones on mandolin.

I agree. There's nothing like it. It's one of those songs that reminds us of the great gifts bestowed upon us by our Creator.

This is one of Zeppelin’s greatest songs, and your reaction to it just shows why You’ve got good taste 🤟

Beautiful song. This entire "unplugged" session and album is stunning. "Thank You" and "Kashmir" are also standouts

Marvelous version of their beautiful song!! Glad you really enjoyed that. You smile when the orchestra started in. 😊🌹

I don't think it is more beautiful than the one in Madison square garden

Stunning to see Page play this entire song through flawlessly live and have it sound as clear and soulful as the original studio mix. There are no limits to his genius as a composer or as a performer.

❤❤❤ I think it's one of the most beautiful songs ever written both musically and lyrically 🎉🎉🎉

The last song I heard, before arriving at my grandfather's house, when he died of lung cancer, on a cold January day. Part of the lyrics speak how I felt that day: I felt the coldness of my winter, I never thought it would ever go, I curse the gloom that set upon us, But I love you so. When I hear this song, my mind goes back to that day, 30 years ago, and I feel the sadness all over again.

Great choice Angela, that song is a Led Zeppelin's classic. For another from that dynamic duo, try their live Babe, I'm Going to Leave You from 1998 at a benefit concert, it is my favorite version of that song and one of Jimmy's best and most emotional solos. Great stuff and glad you are doing them. Thanks, looking great as always and another very nice time with great music and you. Enjoy! 🎵

My favorite Led Zeppelin song and I love the live version from MSG in 1973...always gets me all emotional...this band can rock with the best and then in turn do something lovely like this! Led Zeppelin is considered probably in the top 2-3 greatest rock bands ever and when they had a one time reunion in 2006 they had 20 million tickets requests in one hour! The GOATs!

The orchestra really adds a lot... what a beautiful song.

Hi Ms. D., One word Beautiful............Just Beautiful..... This could be better than the original.. ♠W.G.

Always been one of my favorite songs ever. Isn't strange that a melancholy song can make you feel better when you are down. This has always been one of my go to songs.

Upon us all, just a little rain must fall.

Great reaction Angela, you cant go wrong with Led Zeppelin tunes, so much great material! Keep it up and you look beautiful!

They just don't sing about love like that anymore 🎸🎶🤘🔥

Absolutely stunning piece of music .

After George Harrison of the Beatles criticised Zeppelin for not having enough ballads, Jimmy wrote the music for Rain Song, and as a reference to Harrison, Jimmy used the first two notes of Harrison's "Something" as the first two notes of Rain Song.

Love the hair. You look like Lauren Bacall

Thank You, Going to California and Rain Song are amongst my most Favorite Led Zeppelin songs they are so freakin beautiful

The dude on the stand up bass married Robert's daughter. I saw Zeppelin live in '75 but also saw Robert Plant on his solo tour ( Now and Zen/No Stop /Go Tour) in 1988 in Minneapolis ,Mn. I have a large Bandana I bought at that concert. OH, and always sweet to see and hear your Zep reactions. Peace. : )

This is my favorite song by them with Stairway To Heaven a very close second place. Fantastic reaction by you 🥰 of course. 🙏🏽✌🏽❤️

You are a stunning lady, Angela. I'm profoundly happy you're take a musical Journey through some of the Greatest Music ever written, and played, by some of the Greatest Musicians that ever lived. Enjoy. Abudanza!

Masterpiece

My favorite rendition of this classic Zep tune! Nice choice. This was from their 1994 MTV performance. Can't believe it was already that long ago.

Really good choice....nice song...a masterpiece

Masters of guitar and voice.

This is the kinda song your just totally relaxed when you listen too it

This song and your beauty just made my day

beautiful song and even more beautiful woman

It will bring a tear to your eye if you let it

This classic song is as special as these two masters. His guitar work is perfect. The orchestra is such a warm and special touch!!! They add so much power & expression... On a final note your smile is breath-taking!!! Thank you for reviewing this. video....

Good choice, Angela. My favorite 😌is the tribal version of Four Sticks with its drums 🪘and Indian percussion grooving the beat like Santana. Very danceable. 💃🏻🕺🏿

As "Pa" said, marvelous version. Good reaction!

Plant and Page had some wonderful musicians playing with them. Drummer was Michael Lee (RIP 2008), formerly toured with The Cult and Thin Lizzy. Upright and electric bass Charlie Jones, now touring bassist with Alison Goldfrapp. And Robert Plant`s son in law! Not featured here brilliant guitarist Pearl Thompson, formerly of The Cure (and I reckon sadly missed by them).

You got to hear the Studio version (Led Zeppelin) also listen to 'Babe I'm Gonna Leave you'

Great song

So happy you reacted to this song Angela

So glad you found Zeppelin. They were just a cosmic creation. Had to be outside other worldly powers that intervened and collided these four SUPERSTAR musicians together in 1968 ..so young...so incredibly gifted. They were the very very very best at their individual talents. Best Drummer ..ever.....best Bass ,/ Keyboard player...Best lead vocalist / front man . .EVER.....and the Wizard that created this entire band in his head. Lead guitarist 🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸 Jimmy Page. A trivia note for you ...when they first got together and played for the very first time ...in some small studio .....they played an old Yardbirds song. Train Kept a Rollin' ....they began the song and in a few seconds all four stopped and were stunned at how powerful and perfect they played together. You've got alot of Zeppelin to explore. Hope you'll keep em' coming. Your reactions are priceless. Thank You.

For yourself, check it out from the Madison Square Garden’s concert in 1973. It’s beautiful and no string section.

This is such a great acoustical rock & roll song. Thanx Angela, I'm glad you enjoyed it too.

These guys are certainly special I'm glad you appreciate them. By the way you look beautiful tonight.

this song may blow your socks off..

Such an XLNT selection. Page.

It's one of their best songs, I always like it more the Stairway to Heaven.. drove me crazy trying to learn to play it.

The cello is played by Charlie Jones, Robert Plant's son in law (FYI :)

Or upright bass. Personally, I think the Page-Plant version was better than the origional, Such a beautiful, romnatic yet powerful song.

This was an awesome performance. I think you'll really enjoy the Madison Square Garden live version of this song, it's funny that you mentioned dreamy or however you said it, because this whole song is set to Robert in medieval times, it's pretty amazing to watch. It's like a mini silent movie. Maybe it's unfair to ask you to react to it but at the very least I think you should watch it. You won't be disappointed!!

This song and the album it came off of is perfect. I was going thru a BIG break-up when this album came out. You all have heard the story before girlfriend goes off to college. So I was a tad sad.. I did not mean for that to rhythm.. But these men (Plant & Page) are masters and are in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame for good reason!!! Take care of yourself pretty lady. My generation had so much great music. I adore your channel!!!!

The song was beautiful and really special, and you look really nice, just lovin' your reactions.

This song is great.... You are the sunlight in my growing. The fire grew so low. PLUS the strings add so much to this wonderful song.... I especially love and enjoy the ending guitar section. The ebb and flow of this classic rises and falls...!!!! Upon us all a little rain must fall! Well, tell me what do you think??? Beautiful!

Zeppelin songs are journeys. your mind travels and goes there.

Great taste!

You must hear the album version too

I have to confess, I wasn’t paying much attention to the video, I was a bit distracted by how BEAUTIFUL you are!!

IMHO their most beautiful song. And I'm with Vic Provost below... try the live Babe, I'm gonna leave you.

Jimmy's guitar work is sublime.

I saw this tour in Stockholm Sweden 1995, it was amazing.

Beautiful song

A masterpiece.

Hi Angela, I have been following you only for two months but I really enjoy watching your natural, and honest reactions. It would be nice to see you react to the group Ambrosia, the song "Your the only woman". I know you receive many many suggestions and probably won't even see this message but I had to try. Keep on reacting to music from the 70's and 80's, it brings back beautiful memories and nostalgia to our lives in these harsh times. Peace and Love =)

I've always loved the gorgeous outro by Jimmy, halfway through of which, he tosses the pick down and finger picks the end.

Wonderful pickup my dear

You picked my favorite video of this song! You don’t see this one at all.

This is a transcendent version of my favorite Zeppelin song. Most people rave about Stairway to Heaven but for me, The Rain Song is much more beautiful.

listen to the album version soooo good

Great song, great reaction and you look stunning 😍. Your hair looks beautiful with a touch curls. Always a big beautiful smile. I wish you love and happiness.

Beautiful

Love your Plant and Zeppelin Reactions gorgeous !!!!!

Great reaction Angela.

I'm just on a Zeppelin reaction binge these days, and I came upon your video. Always loved this rendition of 'The Rain Song'. I also like the studio version, of course; it has always been a beautiful ballad. But the orchestra just adds another layer☺ And it is always great to see your enjoyment, of course. Cannot help but smile myself 😊

The only thing mysterious as music is life itself and what a couple of concepts they are!

I saw Plant and Page in 1997 in upstate NY. Most amazing concert I will ever see. It was an unrealized dream come true. Jimmy is just incredible and Robert, older and with a little rust, shook free the cobwebs and did mostly a 3 hour Led Zep show.

Damn, that drummer had the spirit of John Bonham in him on this night! I love seeing these guys when they were still fairly young. It's depressing seeing them today. 😢

Beautiful song for a Beautiful woman

Always have loved this LZ song and this was a great rendition of it! Always loved the wonderful reactions to these songs courtesy of you, Angela, one of the fastest rising superstars on KZread!!!!! Keep up the great work!

I was lucky enough to see Page & Plant in '94. I was never able to get tickets to a Zeppelin concert as I was still pretty young the last time they played in Denver. Tickets were hard to get back then.

Thank you for doing this. The studio version is a little better.

Love your reactions, I must add that you are absolutely beautiful inside and out.

Recommend Over the Hills and Far Away. I also enjoy Plant's performances with Allison Krause.

So glad you reacted to this. Great song.

This is a true meastro at work, the beauty of Jimmy Paige was his alternate tunning nobody really did it in the 70's and Jimmy mastered it. This song is really hard to play in standard tunning

I love the cello too Angela

Was always gonna be a tough ask for anyone to fill Bonzo's seat but I think Michael Lee did one helluva job not only here, but on the whole of the live album, Unledded. Ironically, may they BOTH RIP.

Your hair looks absolutely beautiful. You have to watch the whole group playing this song. This is beautiful, but it ain’t like the whole band doing it back in the day! It’s an acoustic bass, not a cello.

Not writing about the song, just to say you look absolutely gorgeous. :)

It's a kill shot vocal moment for Planty on the Live Song Remains The Same Album version ( don't do it don't do it 🎶) is the extra lyric as we turn on that massive drum brake. It's a tear jerker even for an old man. But it's a Kill moment.

Thank you

the album version has just so much more impact still awesome

New to me! It's ok! Let me suggest a tune, but I don't know if I've suggested it previously! The song is Time Waits For No One by The Rolling Stones! Now that song has some truthful, humbling and powerful lyrics! Check it out!

I can imagine this song being written in 68ish in one of their basements?

Great reaction to a great song. Circe Link do a wonderful cover of this. You looked a bit more serious at the beginning than usual. Maybe things are going good for you?

Hi Angela, Your facial expression seams like you could be a good actress!
