SQUEEZE ME LEMON!! First Time Reacting to Led Zeppelin - 'The Lemon Song'

[@willyroussel3563]

It's called call and response, and Zeppelin were masters at it.

[@jamesrowe3606]

They were and it wasn't just guitar and vocals. John Bonham also interchanged with Jimmy Page during his solos.

[@wolfeflambe]

JPJ killing it on the bass guitar.

[@rayj1011]

Zep does a lot of "call and response" between the vocals and lead guitar.

[@gerib4234]

Greatest Band Of All Time!

[@GrandmaZeppelin]

Absolutely!☮💜

[@davidadams5280]

When Zep calls i respond.

[@martharobison3184]

Yes, they talk to each other with their instruments! Their instruments sing as well! They are the goat❣️ ❤ These guys are really in sinc too❣️ one of a kind. Im a Led-head from the 70's til today❣️

[@marymargaretmoore9034]

This came out in 1969 btw. The speeding up section is called a Rave-Up. The line "Killing Floor" taken from an old Howlin' Wolf song. You caught the call and response between Robert and Jimmy. JPJ is just masterful on this one too.

[@Markhypnosis1]

Page used to record and overlay a couple of different guitar tracks on some songs.

[@davidzimmerli489]

I saw Page live at the Rochester, New York War Memorial in Rochester, New York, when he was the sole rhythm and lead guitarist with the Yardbirds right before he formed the New Yardbirds, soon to become Led Zeppelin. At one point, he pulled out a bow and got some of the weirdest sounds out of his electric guitar. I was witnessing the sounds of the future with Led Zeppelin! Amazing!

[@kurtsaxton823]

Greatest 4 musicians ever brought together. Page and John Paul Jones are probably the best at layering different sounds in the studio, Jimmy Page is an absolute brilliant Master at overdubbing.

[@RockinMamaT]

This is such a dirty bluesy song. You shook me is a must my friend. Peace out. Hear Jimmy on the guitar pure genius. Peace out ✌️ ☮️ And that bass from JPJ and Bonzo going nuts on the drums crazy talent. Peace out ✌️ ☮️

[@heliotropezzz333]

I think you are the only one to have made the comment about the guitar questioning/commenting on what Plant says. There's also some 'call and response' between Plant's singing and Page's guitar after that. I love the bass rhythms and variations in this song including speed changes. I love that you had to check what year we are in now.

[@flickwtchr]

I hear you, I've been listening to them since I was an adolescent (thanks to my older brother who was first to buy their albums when they were released) and to this day I'm still amazed at what I hear. It's freaking incredible and timeless music.

[@Theoldonce]

This is the meaning of poetry, musically but just as important verbally. Heavy censorship during this time and STILL they couldn't stop this song "he's just talking about squeezing a lemon" who had the dirty mind. Such an important song of the day.

[@steezbekillin]

This song is fire🔥I just came back from the gym and needed to checkout Led Zeppelin music

[@leetroy3129]

When I saw Plant back in the 90s someone threw a lemon on the stage as a way of requesting this song. LOL!

[@HollisDuty60]

Led Zeppelin!! Yes! Thank you so much!

[@afloydianslip8613]

Saw Robert Plant in Auckland, New Zealand in 1983, his first tour after Led Zeppelin disbanded. He was in complete denial regarding Zeppelin and flatly refused to do any Zeppelin songs on the tour, but I remember at some time between two songs he said "til the juice runs down my legs" (a line from this song) and everybody went wild. His only reference to Zeppelin at the time.

[@keimahane]

This has always been one of my favorites primarily because of just how much it highlights the mastery of JPJ on Bass. He has always been so underrated only because of who he played with, although he was so important to their sound. Put him in any other band of the '70s and the entire world would know his name.

[@Scoobydcs]

Jimmy makes the guitar talk!! And Robert uses his voice like an instrument. That's why the call and response they do is sooo good. They have a conversation and it's just sublime

[@Pete-p4l]

As you listen to their catalogue you will find Led Zeppelin, unlike many bands, is definitely 4 great musicians making up the whole. Each member can be heard in all of their songs and each contributes equally to the final product. That's why when john Bonham died in 1980 they couldn't go on, that magic was not replaceable.

[@MatthewStegeman-d7g]

Just another day at the office for the greatest band ever!

[@destinyreelly2974]

JPJ is the truth. ❤ And yes, the elements speak to each other in this.

[@zosometalgod]

Robert plant and Jimmy Page is what you call call and response is when Plant sings a line and Jimmy calls back with his guitar! Zeppelin are still the goats after 50 years!!!

[@beverlyhall4035]

Have you reacted to You Shook Me ? You won't be disappointed!!!!!

[@trendydelquendy]

JPJ & Bonham were well into funk/RnB and I love hearing it pop out.

[@Randsurfer]

Was wondering when you were going to do the Lemon. If I had to describe Zep with one song, this is it. Trust me: "You Shook Me" from their first album.

[@lauraulnye6857]

Battle of evermore❤ ❤ Studio version

[@CosmicVagabondPixie]

F YEA!!! **Best Reaction!!!** Ahahaha man just SO **LUV** how much ya get into them!!! That made me **Smile** Thank YOU ever so!!! Ya **ROCK!!!** Weeeeeee

[@johnathanstruble1064]

Yup! Huh? Yup! ..❤

[@gilbertzurita]

Great Bass on this great Song

[@gaylecole9777]

The thing that is special in this song is the bass.

[@simdixon9523]

When I was listening to this song one day when I was 14, my mother came into my room just when the 'squeeze my lemon' bit was on. That's disgusting, she said. Someone of your age shouldn't be listening to this. Another time she came in when I was listening to Zep and she very proudly said 'oh, is this Janis Joplin?' :) That was 50 years ago and it still makes me smile...as do Led Zep.

[@bowtiefidenine]

Best band ever ❤

[@davidburton9136]

This was so heavily influenced by the blues master "Howlin' Wolf" that Zeppelin eventually gave him songwriting credit, and I imagine his estate still gets some cash for his role. Great reaction!

[@brandonboucher7090]

Saw it and clicked immediately

[@fredtello]

this is a great song

[@PaulWalker-hz6zp]

You have a good ear for great music!! 👍

[@juliemanarin4127]

The greatest band in history. Page someones overdubbed himself in the studio. They did alot of call and response...guitar and vocals!

[@Upe-f9c]

JPJ killing it!

[@christianwettendorff4938]

As mentioned Killing Floor is a Howlin' Wolf song, but I would also give the Jimi Hendrix "Monterey Pop '67" version a listen ;-)

[@Newfie-zc7ug]

BONZOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO ! baby

[@crazylegslife]

One guitar player, many guitar tracks....

[@BurkleyBarthel-rp5pt]

It's the drummers base!

[@Mikeluvdrums]

You've discover what is known in the indusrty as "Trading" or" Call and answer " between instuments or in this case instrument and voice ..

[@CosmicVagabondPixie]

YAY YAY YAY Ha SO **Excited** to see what ya think bout THIS one *MDreezy** heh k goin in Weeeeee...

[@Prone2Thrill]

JPJ just owns this song. GOATS

[@paullynn473]

Now check out Howlin' Wolf "Killing Floor" ❤🎸big Zep fan but Jimmy liked to borrow 😂🎶🎻 many over dubs on guitar from Second album 1969

[@michaeljohns3445]

Because they can

[@jimcagney6696]

I'd like to suggest giving Can You Hear Me Knockin by the Rolling Stones a listen to

[@marymargaretmoore9034]

And "Time Waits for No One." 😁

[@leetroy3129]

One of my favorites is Honky Tonk Woman!

[@golden454]

💜☮️🤘🍋😜🔥

[@Newfie-zc7ug]

..................the guy on the bass ,the guy on the lead guitar and the singer is not too shabby either .............LOL :)

[@shawnrich8767]

If you like call and response listen to "You Shook Me"

[@susiedawson3349]

Page would overdub 2, 3, or 4 guitars playing different things or echo and reverb.

[@georgeseif102]

LoL. I see you're going down the best heavy rock band of all time 🐇 🕳️. Check out, "Since I've been Loving You" live at MSG in 1973.

[@TheClarita1984]

Hello kid, may I make you a suggestion? When you pause the video and comment, it's a good idea go back a little bit when you start again, because you're loosing great parts of the song moving on, specially when you cut in the middle of a transition. 😉

[@crowleybo]

👍

[@joannparker1977]

A hard-core racy song. John Paul Jones on bass. The band wouldn't have been what it was without him.

[@johnlillis1161]

give a lisren to The J.Geils Band Must Of Got Lost Live with INTRO off there Blow Your Face Out Live Album it's kick A$$ thanks

[@staceykline1548]

Custard Pie
