Heart - The Rain Song

[@notrocketscience7441]

This song is beautiful, just gorgeous. Page's musical composition is phenomenonal, while Robert's magical lyrics invoke the spirit and mood of the seasons. They don't write music like this any more

[@intothevoid6674]

My God, what a phenomenal composition this is. How on Earth do you write music like this? Jimmy Page is an absolute genius. The music of the mighty Led Zeppelin will be played until the end of mankind. Ann, Nancy, and the entire band did a great job here

[@foolsgold368]

Beautiful......just beautiful 😊❤

[@joemanifesto8742]

So true!

[@no3rdseat]

It is said that George Harrison told Bonzo at a party that Zeppelin is a good band but they don't have any ballads. Jimmy overheard and got butthurt by the comment and went home and created this tune.

[@warrenp.5916]

Some times thoughts come from another world, another place, another time….. Jimmy and Robert blessed us with their thoughts. We are forever grateful and (personally) changed by them. As I face my own limited time on this earth, I will forever be grateful and brought to emotion by their words and music. Some happy, some sad, but still brought there 🙏🙏❤️💙

I was at this show.... my mother had passed a few months before. There had been thunder and lightning in the distance and once they played this it rained. It was beautiful! Such a special moment in time I will never forget it

The Wilson sisters are a treasure trove of talent. 😊

[@robertschiffhauer1679]

The Rain Song is my favorite song to play on my acoustic.Beautiful music.❤️

[@nicksahadi5696]

They brought out tears of rain, from Robert Plant himself. At the Kennedy Center Honors, playing Stairway to Heaven to him, Page and John Paul Jones. I have never ever seen Robert cry, it took Heart to bring out the tears from Robert Plant's ❤️ HEART. (Its on youtube)

[@TomL-j3m]

Next to the timeless LZ, these ladies are amazing. I remember when this song was released in 1973. Brings back so many memories of my high school years.

[@ronm3380]

I saw Ann a couple of years ago and she still has it. She is amazing and her band was incredible...So much talent! The Rain Song is a work of art. Jimmy Page wrote something that is very beautiful and melodic. From the very first upstrum it fills me with emotion. I am learning how to play it and just love all the special parts to it. .

[@Don-Jack]

Nancy Wilson has said The Rain Song is her favorite Led Zeppelin song. "This is one of the most melodically sophisticated songs in the history of rock‘n’roll and also one of the most beautiful pieces of written poetry ever. It’s such an insightful meditation on life through the seasons, and it balances poetry and rock ‘n’ roll perfectly in a way that no-one but Led Zeppelin has ever been able to do. Zeppelin were one of the bands that saved my life in high school. There’s a real magical mystery to this song. Every good guitar player that I’ve ever been at a party with knows how to play this song, but every one of them plays it differently, everyone had their own interpretation. Only Jimmy truly knows I guess."

[@barbaragrijalva9312]

True Zeppelin Wrote the Rain Song But The Wilson' Sisters Are God Given Amazing

[@jasonbennett60]

Anne Wilson is the only person who should ever sing Zep covers, her voice is perfect!

[@paulawilliamson637]

Jason Bennett yes, lol - they have always been my fav as well. You would think they had written most of these Zeppelin songs. No disrespect to Heart, but look up "going to California " covered by Amy Lee of evanescence.

[@GaryLaaks1]

I couldnt just click like. I agree with you fully Jason. The ladies are getting on in life but hell Anne has an amazing rock voice and they both still as beautiful as always.

My sister died this March, at 63. We played this song at her memorial. Her entire house was decorated in a middle eastern motif that was inspired by her love of Zep's Kashmir. In going through her things in preparation to sell her house, we found a photo album dedicated entirely to Robert Plant.

Same here. Didnt want to be disappointed. After all how many take on vocals of the great Robert Plant and Jimmy on guitar? My most beloved Uncle & Friend gave me a Walkman lol & said this is the most beautiful song you'll ever hear. At the time I was in HS and my musical taste didnt reach far from the hip hop of 2PaC but my secret musical taste fell along with The Steve Miller Band & Marvin Gaye. Indeed he was right. Hes no longer with us so for a long time even the 1st strings were too much for my soul but in time souls heal or something like that...for you we ❤ Marty

[@jozefkollar5164]

Tak.

[@ladamyre1]

And to still have it at 63. Ann Wilson is in the top three greatest female rock singers in my opinion: Ann, Grace Slick and Linda Ronstadt. I can't, to this day, say which is #1. Before you say it, Janis Joplin is great too, but her voice is not great, she's a screamer, like Sammy Hagar.

[@billwhitman4125]

There's a lot of very good Zep cover bands , but in my opinion , Great White does the best job. And you nailed what makes a great Zep cover band. 100% The singer. If you haven't already, check out Great Whites " Get the lead Out " live album.

[@alaninhull]

Heart were massively influenced by Led Zeppelin...and they always play Zep songs with so much respect and feeling!

[@ijabbs143]

Yes they were but unlike Zeplin they didn't appreciate all the musicians in the band and behave like spoiled feminist who want to promote the women are great agenda.

[@MGDCrown559]

I saw them in Vancouver Wa at a very little bar when I was 15 or so years old. They were playing Zeppelin songs, and playing them very well. The bar was called the Red Caboose, I heard them from the outside and after listening as long as circumstances allowed I went through the door like I was suppose to be there they were ground level on a make shift corner in an entry way. I was face to face with Nancy then I went out the other exit before they could boot me out.

[@MGDCrown559]

I have tickets to their next show in Tacoma, so it will be 44 years between shows for me.

[@ronniebaker4549]

I saw them come a third encore in 1977 in Atlanta at the Georgia Jam. I thought they were done and was walking toward concession when I heard how strong Ann's voice was on Rock-n-Roll by Zeppelin. They stole the show at the Georgia Jam in Atlanta in 1977. The energy they have is electrifying! Led Zeppelin love's how well Heart does Led Zeppelin!

[@markadams7328]

Yep. They played at the Kennedy Center Honors for Zep!!

[@rebeccahorton9157]

John Paul Jones of Led Zep played with and produced these gals for some time. Anne and Nancy are the shit. The real deal. I saw Led Zeppelin when I was a young punk . Long Beach Arena 1975. These women really do them justice, besides being just plain baddass singer song writer performers themselves.

"The Rain Song" is undoubtedly in the top five of my "...the only song you could listen to - deserted island" question. Hard to pick from so many songs I deeply adore. But it's steadfastly holding its ground at the top of the list. So I'm very leery when someone (even Heart) takes the risk of either revering the majesty, or bombing completely - I can't see much middle ground with this one. But there's just nothing at all to complain about, and everything to appreciate in this performance. Grandly done.

[@Eric-ye8be]

Heart does a superb job with Zeppelin covers, hasn't been a bad cover yet in my opinion

"The Rain Song" It is the springtime of my loving - the second season I am to know You are the sunlight in my growing - so little warmth I've felt before. It isn't hard to feel me glowing - I watched the fire that grew so low. It is the summer of my smiles - flee from me Keepers of the Gloom. Speak to me only with your eyes. It is to you I give this tune. Ain't so hard to recognize - These things are clear to all from time to time. Talk, talk, talk, talk - I've felt the coldness of my winter I never thought it would ever go. I cursed the gloom that set upon us, 'pon us, 'pon us... But I know that I love you so. But I know that I love you so These are the seasons of emotion and like the wind they rise and fall This is the wonder of devotion - I see the torch we all must hold. This is the mystery of the quotient, quotient - Upon us all, upon us all a little rain must fall. It's just a little rain oh yeah

[@petermesajr9865]

Love is like the four seasons. At first it's fresh like Spring. Then the attraction is hot 🔥 like Summer. But Fall like leaves and tears hit the ground. Then in the end it's so cold like Winter leaving one lonely. Maybe

[@cnilecnile6748]

Ann kicks ass and takes names. So does Nancy. And Howard.They were heavy influences on musicians and you can hear it today, across many genres. In many ways they stepped in and took over when Zepplin crashed. Heart, Rush, and Queen were the only thing that wasn't driven strictly by MTV during the 80's.Ann got big-with lungs made from high-strength leather, just like Aretha Franklin, and at her very best, the Idiots shut them down, and we wound up with the whole horrible hair-metal thing. With skinny guys TRYING TO SOUND LIKE HEART. It took Kurt Kobain to shut it off, and the 90's wave of decent,killer rock radio came from bands that grew up watching them live on their home turf in the 70's when they were kids. Heart is easily as important in the scheme of things as Zepplin, the Who, Jeff Beck, Eric Clapton,Allman Bros-and they are often overlooked and taken for granted. Glad they stuck to their guns, and didn't cave in, and sell out. They will always be significant, much like Rush-they didn't give in, either.

[@AnthyLoneExoria]

Each new movement of music rises because the one ascendant grew stale. Hell, Aeromith, one of my favorite bands had to reinvent themselves a few times. Listen to One Way Street, then listen to Love on an Elevator, than Nine Lives. Each are wildly different. Not many groups do that successfully. Led Zeppelin themselves changed over time.
