"She once was a true love of mine" - A Great Line.

[@lesterjohnston8888]

Well that's Bob dylan for you but the transposing of his song is remarkable from a whole lot of love to what he has done with girl from the North Country

[@johanelderdal]

Great version. Robert sure put his brand on it.

GREAT Cover of a GREAT Song!!!! Thank you very much & deep für this treasure ; )

[@lesterjohnston8888]

That base is so good & so are all the band

[@dlewtweentorla1210]

First Time I remember hearing this song was watching the Johny Cash Show and he and Bob Dillon played this song as a duet. Still today Love this song.. This version is Amazing!!!!! Would be amazing if Plant recorded this. Incredible arrangement and new take on a classic (so rarely done anymore).

[@belindacarter6872]

DAVID LEWINGTON ditto! The Johnny Cash Show performance was the best version I’d heard - but Robert Plant makes it wonderful, as well Joanie Mitchell has another amazing version

[@lethiapage4767]

Oooooooooooooooo. Nice!

[@patrickgreen125]

great version

[@elenaaguila3357]

best cover of this great song... may be even best version

[@rayc7192]

wow this is a great cover! i'm following youtube train of covers of this tune, this is the first one i've like that had instrumentals. that guy on the mandolin is ripping it up! gotta find out who that is

[@elenaaguila3357]

HoneyDrippers?

[@clementtempleton4250]

Bravo!!!

[@ИринаСмирнова-л4в]

Эти музыканты достойны быть рядом с Плантом и видно, что он ценит их.

[@ludmilalazareva6287]

Thank you!

[@jk777sdg]

The reason Dylan may not have written it is because it derived from Scarborough fair and is a timeless fable song similar to shakespeare. As in Dylan wrote it and talked about how he was was rewriting old stories and chords, as all musicians are. He justly kept retelling the mystiques of stories and everyone else kept retelling the cliches choruses. Dude knows how draw a sound picture !

[@judyjudy51]

Nice, top band

[@swerne01]

To those who have written stating they think Tom Northcutt's version is the best out there, compared to Bob Dylan or Robert Plant, Northcutt's version sounds like Tommy James and the Shondells. This song is a romantic ballad for Christ's sake. It doesn't need backup vocals.

[@lesterjohnston8888]

Of course you are definitely right because you know what music 🎶 is all about

[@swerne01]

@@lesterjohnston8888 Thank you.

[@swerne01]

I just went back and listened to this version again and he still sounds like a cross between Tommy James and Huey Lewis. Also the first image in the video is that of a county fair. Is it possible that he thinks Bob Dylan meant this when he wrote the first line, "If you're travelin' in the north country fair"?

[@roalziroalzi]

ANOTHER GEM OF BOB DYLAN..... No. 33779

[@alejandrodiego4665]

Dos Genios de la música, no cabe duda la influencia de Dylan para posteriores artistas como los Beatles, Los Stones, jimi Hendrix, byrds, etc.

[@thewordofgord]

Lovely arrangement of this folk standard, popularized by Dylan, w/spot-on soloing.

[@graric]

'popularized by Dylan' surely you mean written by? He took Scarborough Fair, reworked the opening line and kept the 'true love of mine' refrain, but otherwise it's all him. They have similar but distinct melodies and completely different chord changes, he was obviously inspired by Scarborough Fair but 90% of Girl from the North Country is his.

[@floepiejane]

​@@graric more than 90% imo

[@dbeecooks]

Nice......................

[@rachelee73]

🌈🌈🌈🤧🤧🤧🌈🌈🌈 Inspirational energy

[@lejeune1945]

there is a 480 version out there,somewhere !!

[@kingoftheseamusic]

Plant: "Dunno if it was written by Mr Zimmerman". Me: "Yeah, remember Taurus, Robert?" Fantastic cover though Mr Plant

[@СтарыйГрузин-л2л]

суппер!....

[@bobratcliffe3599]

Check out Pete Townsend's version....brilliant

[@HEAD3455]

plant I never cared for him that much but he s good

[@sartainja]

This Zimmerman fellow might have some talent for song writing.

[@jk777sdg]

That ending was on purpose even better way to end the tragic song story so suddenly. So it goes.

[@jk777sdg]

What they cut off the very end of the lyrics lol teaser "in the brightness (of my day)", on purpose?!?!? Lol

[@tawniatiikanen2318]

Hate to break this to You, but most music today has something in it that was "ripped off"...i like to say "inspired", by someone else's notes or lyrics or vibe. That's how we learn and create. It's art. Just like with food...you take a recipe and put your spin on it to make it your own.

[@lesterjohnston8888]

Robert plant is looking good well looking better than me @77

[@viviandarkbloom100]

He knows Bob wrote it.

[@dariovarini3353]

oltre l'originale, questa la miglior versione, insieme a quella di Eddy Vedder

[@docwoz]

centuries?

[@michellewebb2125]

🤍 🪶🌬💖

Chateau St. Michelle

[@andrewwebster2403]

He’s no Bob!

[@johnlee5423]

Liam Clancy

[@freakinoldguy]

Love this song and as beautiful as this is, to me it still doesn't match the Tom Northcott version.

[@patricknunez8884]

There’s many great versions of this song,But I feel Eddie Vedder version is the Best.

[@69kpm]

I never thought this song could be fucked up. He did it!

[@PedroRibeiro-ib6bf]

Nice version, but i still prefer dylans

[@auramac]

Dylan's original, yes. Nice instrumentals on this, but no one including Bob himself has bettered his original recorded take.

[@carmenandthedevil2804]

Best is Cocker/Russell by far.

[@artifactis]

Dylan and cash version sorry Robert ✌

[@auramac]

Dylan pre-Cash version, sorry.

[@liammcooper]

Eh I don't think this song should be electric. The whole point is the solitude felt by missing the woman

[@jk777sdg]

Also the arrangements nice but pianist was awesome technique but a bit out of place in terms of being overly hyper and notey, when it didn't peak or land at end dynamically. Just plonked and landed on the loudest chord he could. Also the mandolin trying to be Jimmy page w the sweeping arm after his solo was funny af for an acoustic version Beautiful groove happening w bass and drums

[@carmenandthedevil2804]

Average version of one of Mr Dylan's classics. "Nice and Sweet" makes The Girl from the North Country neat.

[@normwho7]

I thought Pete Townshend did a great job...this come pretty close

[@phenix749]

no more voice

[@curtzeek8818]

I like it but Cocker and Leon are much better.

[@鈴風清風]

ディランとジョニー・キャッシュのオリジナルに比べると、あまりにも平凡。いつもの　プラントらしくない。

[@danielmaiam]

A voz do Plant não deu a emoção que essa música passa. Acho q não encaixou no seu timbre de voz.

[@johnlee5423]

The lions version is better

[@HareBrahs]

dont like the fingerpicking

[@floepiejane]

Ooof, not my cup of tea. Love Robert. Love Dylan. Don't love this arrangement. Waaay too dramatic.

[@billysmith3320]

Not nice Robert , sounds like a Chinese country song if there is such a thing .

[@frankblangeard8865]

This guy used to be able to sing. Now he is just embarrasing.

[@onitram1]

He's actually got the nerve to question someone else's authorship? What an ass. He and Page ripped off half of their stuff.

[@AniketKhanal2009]

Well, that's because this song is much similar to the old English song Scarborough fair. I'm sure Dylan got this one from that English song

[@onitram1]

Has nothing to do with my point.

[@AniketKhanal2009]

It has. That's the reason he questioned the authorship of this song

[@onitram1]

Try again. My comment referred to his gall at questioning someone else when he and Page are the most notorious thieves in Rock & Roll, so your reply about what song Dylan may have based one of his on isn't germane.

[@davidrisner4039]

He may have been saying that Robert Zimmermann and Bob Dylan are different. This song may have been written before Bob ever even considered changing his stage name.

[@moebees3060]

Hey plant. Zimmerman has a novel prize in literature and you have a bunch of plagerism lawsuits.

[@jackcrane7853]

Awful, embarrassing, cheap. What a sad contrast to the great version by Pete Townshend of this song!

[@wrrpoker-rs7hy]

This was a terrible try at a beautiful song.....and they left out a verse.

[@lorrimiller7010]

The Eddie Vedder cover is far better with much more feeling.

[@HummingLoud]

Man that was awful. Not a song for Plant.

[@auramac]

Interesting take from him, good band.

[@aboukirman3508]

Not a great version...not even an average version.
