FIRST TIME HEARING Led Zeppelin - No Quarter VS Tool - No Quarter

[@stegwise]

i saw Tool perform this live in 97, at Lollapalooza in Dallas TX. before the song Maynard said to the crowd "If you're under 25, we wrote this."

[@fidenciohernandez5739]

Was working at the ExxonMobil plant in 97' in Dallas ...Like the Tool version ...but LOVE THE LED ZEPPELIN VERSION❤

[@kayakutah]

Funny!!

[@JerryFulwider]

Zeppelin was amazing in concert .... Along with Pink Floyd. I spent many a night laying in the floor in my misspent youth staring at ceilings spinning out of control....

[@heyskipj]

Zep’s original makes me feel like I’m floating on water. In Tool’s version I am the water.

[@yozaseig3870]

Zep all the way. Their live renditions of this are epic. Tool great cover

[@inspectorquaalude714]

Tool doesn't do many covers but when they do, Tool is gonna Tool

[@alexfrank6534]

Saw Tool perform this in Mesa Az on Halloween and the band dressed up as Zepplin. Legendary

[@juliemanarin4127]

Of course this is zeppelins song so...Zeppelin...NOBODY BETTER!! NO CONTEST...ZEPPELIN ALL THE WAY!!

[@rockzilla-666-]

What a great cover from tool. Nuff said

[@kayakutah]

Very interesting. I like them both. I'm 72 and grew up on LZ, but I'm also a huge Tool fan. Win-win.

[@StaxReacts]

Right on

[@alexfrank6534]

I think i speak for most Tool fans when I say don’t bump it down. We know the songs are long. We are here for it!. It will also save you time in editing them

[@Degner]

Nothing Compares 2 You, written by Prince for Sinead O'Connor. Then Chris Cornell of Soundgarden did a cover when his best friend, Chester Bennington took his own life. Prince DID release his own recording of the song that slaps (of course), but it's only TWO for Tuesday...

[@andrearodriguez9005]

In high school in the 80’s No Quarter by Zeppelin was my go to sleep go to. Such a vibe 😴🤘🏼

[@StaxReacts]

I can see that for sure

[@Spudz76]

Love the tone of the guitar in the Tool version it actually feels cold like the lyrics are saying.

[@jamesdavisjr6937]

Jonny cash covering nine inch nails hurt should be next Tuesday

[@susiejo143]

I love this cover❤ Tool ❤

[@steamr0ll]

I have heard both of these versions at least a hundred times each and personally I get a bigger rush out of the Zep version even though the Tool is incredible. and since you asked, I found your channel because your second Rush reaction came up in my feed (day of).

[@shellafoo]

I heard TOOL'S version before Zeppelin's. When I heard the original I thought, "who are these children covering TOOL'S version?" I kid of course. I grew up to Zeppelin and love the band. Buuut,,,,,

[@sicotshit7068]

No Quarter was a Medieval times term for No Mercy during battles, I know it was said in Viking battles. The live version of this is really outstanding, FYI: Led Zeppelin did this song before Tool did. Yes it’s different for Led Zeppelin, but that’s the type of band they were, they preform many genres & this I’d say falls under Prog. I personally prefer Led Zeppelin’s version, & especially the live. Tool formed decades later, & I’m quite sure use all the enhancers etc. Led Zeppelin was all pure musical genius. Thanks for your reaction.

[@pothead1980]

U gotta listen to the 1973 msg zeppelin no quarter if you want to hear their best version

[@robbob5302]

I was just driving down the road an hour ago thinking about this question. And here you were, dropping the answer in your video!

[@StaxReacts]

Awesome! Thank you!

[@gridironmayhem4945]

I like both versions. As far as which one is better, it depends on my mood.

[@juliemanarin4127]

Watch this one live 1973 at msg best audio...make sure it is the whole song!

[@themadcow71]

Tie goes to the original. But damn Tool crushed it.

[@horoldo77]

I like both version of the song. Tool did a great cover, the first half they paid tribute to Led Zeppelin by sticking to the original, then added a little Tool flavour from about half way. For another 2 for Tuesday do "Whiplash". Metallica's song and then covered by Motorhead.

[@danielbullock1019]

This song sounds like a dangerous mystery. Thanks Stax! Keep crushing it!

You have to watch the Following Jenny and Screech The Trilogy by REN..... Dude ... It will blow the top off your head but you have to finally 3 back to back to back... You could also throw HI Ren which is possibly the "Bohemian Rhapsody" of today .. ..... They are all by REN...

[@t21luv]

Oh hell yes!! Thank you Stax!!!!!!!!!

[@StaxReacts]

My guy!!!

Planet Caravan by Black Sabbath AND Pantera.

[@robbob5302]

“They ask no quarter.” That means “They ask no mercy.” Imagine somebody who just got their butt kicked in a duel, they are on the floor bleeding. If they ask quarter, they are saying “Please don’t kill me!”

[@GhostCrowBrother]

OOo I came up on the Zep, but have been a Tool fan since 1996. This will be fun 🤜🤛

[@StaxReacts]

🔥🔥🙏🙏

[@susiejo143]

Same except 93

@@susiejo143 OGT?

[@susiejo143]

​@@GhostCrowBrotherI think that would be 91 but close!😅

[@GhostCrowBrother]

@@susiejo143 yeah close enough. I've seen them 5 times down undah. Always transformation for me. Modelled my own singing voice on Maynard.

[@scottmatzeder9162]

Stax, I dont know if anyone has asked for this Cover, but, how about Bob Seger`s "Turn the Page" and Metallica`s Cover of it, or Black Sabbath`s "Children of the Grave" and White Zombie`s Cover it!

[@t21luv]

@@scottmatzeder9162 great one!

[@NoelRoots-t1u]

Led zeppelin are famously a performance band, if you want to hear their real intent for this track have a listen to the live version from the song remains the same, recorded at the MSG in 1973

[@andrewmiller218]

Let’s goooo!!!! Haven’t watched yet but I already know it’s gonna be a banger when it’s from my boy Stax🤘🔥🌀! Thank you for sharing your Journey with us friend🤘!

[@StaxReacts]

No problem!!! Thank you for the support

[@loristimpfle3700]

Led Zeppelin. Thank God they didn't try to imitate Robert Plant. I couldnt understand Tools words.

[@philshorten3221]

Military "Quarters" are Barracks where you live / sleep. The order "give no Quarter" literally means to give no shelter to the enemy, in other words "take no prisoners, kill everyone!" This order was made a War Crime but in ancient times if you didn't have enough resources or feared prisoners would attack you, or you were just evil then "give no quarter" was how you fought a battle.

[@t21luv]

I don’t want to monopolize 2 for Tuesday but you should add Ice Cube - Wicked covered by Korn to the list

[@StaxReacts]

Bettt

[@juliemanarin4127]

This was from their 5th album...around 1975 or 1976 I think

[@Ledzepnut]

'73

[@dan.j.boydzkreationz]

Quarters are possessions, home. They have no port of call

[@Degner]

The term "No Quarter" comes from ancient combat. During a war/skirmish, it was considered chivalrous to allow for gentlemanly retreats so both sides could regroup and rest. This was called "Quartering". In certain situations when the enemies particularly hated each other, they would allow No Quarter during the combat, not stopping until one side was beaten. It also usually meant that no mercy would be shown if one side yielded.

[@ted1976hailspiralout]

[@Rob74959]

Please react to Ticks and Leeches by Tool

[@rkurniawan4432]

is there any other songs that tool covered & put in their album other than this song? i find it a testament & symbol of respect, regardless of your musical taste between these 2 great bands

[@alexfrank6534]

There’s a cover of chokehold they did out there somewhere. Not on album

[@Spudz76]

Quarter has a double meaning here, like you caught the mercy part but it also means shelter. There is no shelter from the cold and no mercy for opponents.

[@StaxReacts]

Ahhh gotcha thank you

[@nicknick2903]

Tools version

[@henriettaskolnick4445]

I prefer the original however, in my opinion, Tool's is a well done, respectable cover. To my ear, Tool's sounds like it's coming from the cold, desolate, wastes of outer space, whereas the original sounds like its coming from interdimensional planes of existence. The original is very alluring, enticing, inviting and shiver inducing with hints of secretive promises.

[@heather5838]

Your comparing led zeppelins studio version of No quarter . To Tools version of No quarter. WRONG. Because Tools version of No quarter is more a cover of Led zeppelin MSG Live version . 2 different songs all together . Thats what made Led Zeppelin so unique

[@fidenciohernandez5739]

Well said 👏

[@petpresidentorg]

Zeppelin is good , but TOOL just hits on a different level IMHO

[@juliemanarin4127]

Nope!

[@richgaluppo4417]

it means no place to sleep

[@davidfischer1138]

I think no quarter , back in the day, that there was no place to stay or no rooms to stay in. Our constitution mentions our citizens shall not quarter any soldiers, meaning soldiers can not be housed by us.

[@StaxReacts]

Makes the most sense now

[@socalnitro]

I’m with the original on this one

[@thrashersheaf7440]

No Quarter symbolizes unwavering determination and courage. The title is derived from the military practice of showing no mercy to a vanquished opponent, and the lyrics suggest a mission or purpose that must be carried out under challenging circumstances. "No quarter" is a pirate phrase meaning "no mercy." It could also refer to the US Revolutionary War when Great Britain enforced a policy requiring colonial Americans to house British soldiers and offer them food and a bed during the cold of winter. If this policy was refused to a British soldier, this "No Quarter" policy allowed the British soldier to invoke severe punishment (death, sometimes) on the American who refused him. This was only one of the many ways in which Britain attempted to legitimize their treatment of Americans in their effort to interrupt their recapture of the colonies.

[@stegwise]

specifically it means no prisoners, as in we shall not quarter prisoners and therefore will execute them, and is therefore synonymous with showing no mercy.

[@Ledzepnut]

The difference between the two songs, Tool takes a Zeppelin song and makes it sound like a kick ass Tool song, Zeppelin writes one of the best songs ever, and it doesn't sound like any other Zeppelin song. Tools music sounds very similar to each other, you can tell it's them, it has that Tool sound, but don't get me wrong, they have some great music, however with Zeppelin, this song was released in '73, there was no other song that sounded anything like it, with the passion and/or emotion that Zeppelin has in their music, it is on a completely different level. The Tool version may be harder hitting and more current, but if you listen to the live Zeppelin version from '73 MSG, there is no comparison

[@Andy-d4x1m]

This is a cover by both bands. I like both but gotta say tool tooled it up better. I do like that they pay homage to Zep with this as i think tool was influenced by Zep and Floyd, great video.

[@Ledzepnut]

Wth are you talking about, this is an original Zeppelin song written by John Paul Jones, it was no cover

[@Andy-d4x1m]

@@Ledzepnut ok, old viking song

[@Ledzepnut]

@@Andy-d4x1m BS I've never heard anything like that about this song. I've been listening to Zeppelin for 50 years, you sound like a troll just trying to stir the pot, and even in some remote way that there are a couple of lyrics that may be similar to some ancient song, who cares

I love tool but the beginning lyrics sound like he's singing into a solo cup

[@scottspears9347]

I don't think one is better than the other but Tool's version seems a little more cerebral

[@9milli320]

Stax, there is no comparison to Tool's version of this song! I love Led Zeppelin, but sorry. Tool hit this out of the park and then some!

[@crazylegslife]

While the Zeppelin version is okay, Tool absolutely blows it out of the water with their version. Sorry, that's the way I see it.

[@juliemanarin4127]

Nooooo wayyyyyy! Zeppelin all the way!!

[@faithpearlgenied-a5517]

Obviously not.

[@GhostCrowBrother]

Also, Tool is best experienced with some assistance from Lucy. Their soundscapes, reverb, drum patterns etc. are something else.

[@fidenciohernandez5739]

No Auto tune in Zeppelins version ...But Tools version all the technology available for their cover . 😊

[@RosettaStoned462]

I prefer Tool's version of this song, by a landslide .There's something hypnotic and mesmerizing about it that the original doesn't have imo. I started watching you for Tool and will stay for Tool. 🌀
