Babe I'm Gonna Leave You (Led Zeppelin Cover; Acoustic Guitar and Vocal)

Here is a re-upload of my May 2010 cover of Led Zeppelin's "Babe I'm Gonna Leave You."

[@clayd531]

I wonder how many people know just how hard that song is to play ans sing too. Great job!

[@noellucas6421]

Lol write

[@AmerikiDork]

I know. He definitely does it better than me

[@LiL13izzy7]

4 people obviously do not.

[@brettwhite97]

i still cant get the hang of it but it's definitely one of my favourites to try

[@bodasdan3209]

Not hard to play. Many reputable parts. Singing thou, that’s a whole new level.

[@FelipeMedLev]

This song is harder than it looks, this dude plays it perfectly while alternate picking amd singing! Mind blown 🤯

[@KP-fy5bf]

I now for real bruh its a monster to play, with a pick forget about it!

[@saptono]

Its hard especially because theres no drum here to help keep the tempo at the right pace.

[@kazakhjojo]

yeah...

[@user-mf8su7ny3s]

Not perfect he plays the wrong note at 0:29

[@royanania1025]

Why is no one talking about his amazing vocals?

[@davidjackson777]

I was looking to add that to my comment when I saw yours. I think his singing was very strong. Great job overall!

[@germangomez1915]

@@davidjackson777 incredible ! and sings it in a more accessible way !!

[@trivierinaresh]

because it's not amazing? I mean he's very good at playing but he's not "amazing" at singing, he's just good

[@vae]

@@trivierinaresh hahahah you just clown 🤡

[@goranbatak4535]

Amazing...genius guy....all is miracle....respect...after Robert this boy...great talent...voice...all is gennius

[@GYGS]

Dude, sorry to be frank, but holy shit this is fantastic

[@James.D]

You talented bastard.

[@asmrburst4238]

Thats some impressive alternate picking man, especially being played while singing like that. In any case, great cover and inspiration to get this down myself..

[@JimC1007]

Thank you for the praise. I hold the pick as Robert Fripp described it in a magazine interview that I read in 1987, the year I started playing. My picking movements were inspired by Trevor Rabin's precision speed picking during a Yes Union concert that I watched on VHS tape in 1992. Steve Howe and Trevor Rabin were my main focus when I started playing, which is why my technique and fingerings are so different than those of Jimmy Page.

[@stevenswarthout6945]

I’ve been watching covers for a decade. This is my first comment I’ve ever made. Absolutely brilliant! Thank you 🙏

[@ryanlemay4137]

You never know what you’re going to get when you click on a cover, but I’m so glad I clicked on this one! Absolutely amazing job !!!

[@stevends3865]

One of the best covers of this classic I've heard to date. The masters themselves would be impressed.

[@StudioBleenk]

I imagine this was played at a wedding

[@elgatoremendado1115]

Or in a Lawyer Dispatch

[@OracleTheRonin]

hahaha

[@tchrisou812]

I didn't know this could be done. One man and an acoustic guitar ? I would have said no, but here we are. Great rendition that would make anyone proud. Kudos to you.

[@venomouscasca]

To sing and hold that picking pattern down. Wow!

[@ilfedrigo]

this song is "easy" when you're fingerpicking, the way this dude play with the pick it's just in another level, awesome bro!

[@germangomez1915]

I think it is the best interpretation there is of this song! . The guitar is very good, but it should also be noted that without using Robert Plant's vocal inflections, you have managed to put a devastating force, with your own personality and scales, it is a magnificent work !!!

[@RaftorAvila]

Usually can’t stand most covers, but wow. Bravo dude

[@Felipe456]

Let’s not split hairs and just appreciate the master piece this is and the amazing job this guy has done. What a voice. Brilliant sir. From a proud British rocker 🤘🏻

[@jak834]

This is talent. My man. Singing and playing at the same time is a different game. This dude dude it with the same tone of right plant Notes. Dude. You fucking nailed this

[@drd1924]

His Voice range is perfect for this song, just magnificently performed Edit: at 3:05...Mind Blown!!! Freakin AWESOME MAN!

[@mrsmith9951]

I can't even play it this clean without singing... This is mind blowing

[@Tannertraversed]

This is absolute madness on the talent scale! Rock on BROTHER for those who have ceased🤘🤘

[@leiyadao]

subbed at you .. great vocal and playing. This song is really hard to sing but you had your own version that you sounded like it's your own song,,well done!!!!👏👏👏

[@umbertobenedetto741]

Such a beautiful voice and interpretation! Pure talent

[@chrisroa1]

Ok so, just a quick note Jim, the 18 idiots that offered a dislike to this performance...well..they probably struggle coordinating the skills required to open a jar of peanut butter so (obviously) pay 0 attention to them. NAILED it and yes @ Clayd531...VERY difficult to play and sing, I'm with ya. GREAT job Jim and thanks for your efforts AND accomplishments. Cheers bro. :)!!

[@billxx188]

This is by far the best cover of 'Babe I'm Gonna Leave You' that I have seen on KZbin. How this video isn't trending is beyond me. That took serious skill and talent. Well done!

[@solidonaso488]

this is one of the greatest one man covers ever done

[@notreallyludo338]

Dude I've watched this video like 30 times, love the song and love the cover

[@AhmedM.Bakhit170]

Damn i've just finished learning it on guitar it's a very difficult song you're a real beast to play it and sing at the same time

[@silverblack9453]

100% complete and total stud. Period

[@thejunglegod]

Dude!!! This is a masterpiece......perfect rendition :)

[@Lloydguitar]

Agree with all the positive comments. Ive learnt to play this piece but playing and singing without any noticeable mistakes ( Regardless of how many takes), is super impressive. Well done.

[@alessandrabovero6996]

Il mio pezzo preferito di ogni tempo... ❤️ Non mi stanca mai, la sua magia? Eterno... ❤️

[@renanbloginterludico4447]

I have seen lots of covers of this song. Your cover is the best! Just amazing! Greetings from Brazil.

[@mark5340]

Impressive performance! Thanks for sharing this and keep on rocking

[@nicfroehlich]

Great! What an inspiration for my tryings in the very beginning of practicing that tune! Wow! ❤

[@TheBlackSheep-tr9th]

Truly outstanding. Very impressive.

[@vincegil5406]

I keep watching this over again and this guy is a rockstar

[@skeech1979]

Fantastic vocals. So much feeling. I believe you.

[@corrinaleavitt4250]

I’m so impressed with anyone who can sing this while playing it. So involved just to play the song. Props to you 😍 excellent job

[@luistirado88]

Can you check out my cover of this song?: kzbin.info/www/bejne/jKbYq6uffrqUisk Let me know what you think.

[@guitarhack42]

This takes unbelievable skill to do what you did here! Again, great job!

[@avista4312]

excellent performance...I could feel the tension through the screen...hard to play and sing that song...amazing creation by Page

[@suegielen3684]

Goosebumps. Just Wow…

[@frederickglasser5617]

Dude you're making me cry... what a beautiful opening

[@michaeltoney9250]

[@scottkurber7804]

Great job! Now I gotta step up my game. I've been finger picking it, but will try using a pick next. And great vocals!

[@randaloopy]

That made my day. So talented. Thank you.

[@musicatation2254]

IMPOSSIBLE AND EQUALLY AWESOME !!!!

[@SentinelBand]

Excellent performance of a very challenging song! I'm very impressed. You make it look easy, but I know its far from easy to sing and play this one. I also have covers on my KZbin if you are interested. Keep up the great work!!

[@KP-fy5bf]

Damn bro you got some nice ass covers on your channel not gonna lie! Hope the youtube algorithm picks it up sometime in the future and your channel blows up.

[@SentinelBand]

@@KP-fy5bf Thank you for the kind words. Much appreciated! I also hope your channel blows up too! Keep up the fantastic work buddy!

[@rulojuka]

Oh my God, that was spectacular! Thank you very much for the upload!

[@thierryhimself2796]

Dude. I'm trying like crazy to achieve what you did on that video. So I can tell how good you are.

[@antilapoffsalcokitchen7523]

Невероятно приятно слышать эту песню в твоём исполнении. Шикарно сыграно и вокал просто великолепный!

[@cicolusnage2349]

I've been learning this song. I find it hard to play with pick and you're playing with it while singing!! Bravo

Awesome loved it ..............loved it !!!!!

[@ermanomedda2529]

You freak me out! Hard to play, almost impossible to sing and you do both in a impressive way. Wtf great job man! I really appreciate. Thanks for this.

[@beachem1]

So totally awesome. As a lifetime Zep fan have loved that song and known how difficult it is to play. You have a definite future in music. Bravo 👏🏼

[@daltonortega]

Chills man. Chills.

[@amritendughosal8924]

Fantastic! You sir, are a noble soul, an artist, a scholar.

[@rorriccarlson1108]

Nevermind anything else, we know it already, but blending in the short solo where it's a chaotic twister that somehow rights itself thru its end, that part was what made me write something. The way it begins it sounds strange to the song, but it ties completely at the end it such a way that it holds the entire thing in place cantileveredly, nice one

[@leiyadao]

nice one !!!👏👏👏👏

[@cytyjayem8831]

O instrumental e o vocal perfeitamente alinhados. Cara, você mandou muito bem. Parabéns!

[@russ186]

Just came across your video. AWESOME playing along with your vocals!!😀

[@davidlb13mt]

The people that hit dislike on videos like this seem like neat people. Well played and well sung my dude!

[@edminer9061]

Yeah! That is beautiful. I been playing this song for years. I am 54 years old, this is the only song i play really. I am always playing it wrong. And along with you singing it at the same time. You absolutely nailed it. You should quit your day job and just go amongst people mingling, and just start playing, and singing like this, and people will reward you. Your voice is unique and beautiful too.

[@paweaver7889]

amazing performance You are very Talented Thank You!!!!

[@joselura9748]

Just waouh.wondefull voice and 🎸

[@shockerjason]

Dude this is nuts

[@Solomanium]

The number of complete idiots pretending to be guitar virtuoso's in the comments in astounding. This song is INCREDIBLY difficult to play properly. There's 25 chords in this song and 3 time changes - 3/4, 4/4, and 5/4. Communication Breakdown is an easy Zeppelin song to play, 5 chords and no time changes. This song is HARD AS HELL. This guy deserves so much credit. So impressed with this cover.

[@shahakbar6034]

Absolutely fantastic I can't saying...anything

[@bloomer1966]

This guys vocals are off the charts. Wow.

[@kknye9252]

Very good impressive to sing n play that from zeppelin look forward to more songs I really like your voice . You r talented for sure kk
