Stairway to Heaven - Led Zeppelin (Reaction) PT. 1 Classic Thought Provoking Rock Tune

[@louielouie22]

This song was voted the most requested song on the radio in the 20th century

[@sukie584]

I think that was “You Lost that Lovin Feeling” by The Righteous Brothers

[@toneyisaiah408]

KSHE Plays Led Zeppelin records all the time.

[@toneyisaiah408]

Not just Zeppelin, many others as well.

[@toneyisaiah408]

Whenever a classic like the song " Stairway To Heaven" gets played, fans can't get enough.

[@blowingfree6928]

Not in the UK as throughout the 70s, 80s and 90s the radio was mainly BBC stations (BBC 1, BBC2 etc) and the BBC would not play any rock music, and Zep got absolutely zero airplay. Therefore no one would have requested STH as they would know that it would not get played. Consequently, even the most mediocre of pop songs would have been requested more than this masterpiece, as they would have been played! The more benign songs of Slade, Quo and Queen were sometimes played though on the radio. Zep's rise almost entirely came about through word-of-mouth, listening to friends records or nightclubs that played rock. Ditto for groups like Deep Purple. I would imagine that it would have been different in the US though with their multitude of radio stations.

[@suecoombs6993]

1973 Madison Square Garden live version is a MUST SEE!

[@lcdimatteojr1]

Simply put, the greatest song of all time.

[@johnburton1686]

Absolute masterpiece. GREATEST rock song of all time. Almost 50 years ago. Jimmy Page's BBC interview is a must view on KZbin for a definite understanding of how and where this timeless treasure was composed. To ALL Led Zeppelin fans...Ramble On!

[@robichj]

The jury in Los Angeles deliberated for one day in June 2016 before rejecting the claims that “Stairway” was a ripoff of “Taurus.” The jurors unanimously agreed Led Zeppelin didn’t use anything that was unique and original in the plaintiff's composition.

[@PeterTea]

It was a weak ass case against them. Rick Beato did a great video on it and said that the lydian scale that they use is in a lot of songs going back hundreds of years.

[@toneyisaiah408]

What about the group Steppenwolf who recorded the song " Tighten Up Your Wig?"

[@toneyisaiah408]

Who originally wrote " Messin' With The Kid?"

[@mickeygoh25]

it was just a very small part of the acoustic intro you may argue that the chord progression is kinda similar but the melody is completely different... and what comes after the intro is purely Page/Plant

[@beacuseimugly4417]

Listen to the original and you will hear it

[@michaelivan9066]

One of the greatest songs ever. Was huge the moment it was released. Never a “cult” song.

[@richardeast3328]

I was just starting my junior year in high school when stairway was released. It was a monster hit in the St. Louis market. K-SHE 95 played the whole entire album in one setting also.

[@MichaelSmith-es4nl]

The greatest rock group of all time. They combined blues,rock and other music genre. At the top of their career were considered technically sound.

[@HeavyBrocks]

You simply cannot steal a masterpiece.

[@ronniel879]

These gentlemen in this band have more talent than any band then and now ! All four are world class musicians to the point they didnt have to steal anything! The courts have spoken but haters gonna hate !!! I wonder if the song would have been a flop would there have even been a lawsuit against Led Zeppelin ?????

[@rosswatson5996]

Zeppelin WON the case!!!

[@Yooperbuzz1]

NOBODY cares about the lawsuit. This is a phenomenal classic song. BTW - DJs loved this song because they could put it on, everybody would listen, nobody would complain and they could take a bathroom and coffee break. (You guessed it. I was a DJ.)

[@Matt..G]

Too much has been made of the controversies dealing with this song. All I know and all that matters is this is one of the Greatest Rock songs of all time 🤘🏼 Cheers! 🍺🥃🍸🍹☕️

[@timlamb6196]

About a rich woman who thinks she can buy her way into heaven but learns "your stairway lies on the whispering wind". I love when it says basically we need to objectively find out right from wrong and unite together for peace and to "be a rock and not to roll" as in stand firmly about what is right and not to sway. A beautiful, creative, and deep song. This is a rock classic. Led Zeppelin is one of the most legendary bands in rock history and arguably the band that influenced what would eventually be called hard rock and heavy metal. One of THE most influential bands ever and rock would not be the same had they not existed. They were a part of the early British hard rock invasion which includes Cream, Black Sabbath, Deep Purple etc.

[@glastonbury4304]

One of the greatest songs ever , there's always conspiracies around real talented people

[@elkabong2897]

That moment at the 9:30 mark my man gets it, he knows he is about to hear greatness... priceless. Thanks for sharing with us your moment.

[@johnhardy9161]

Led Zeppelin was in a league of their own. Being the biggest band in the 70s made them a huge money making machine. That's why other artists tried bringing lawsuits against them claiming plagiarism.

[@216trixie]

There's really no controversy. It was made up by some people later. Zeppelin wrote the song. Thank you for the review!

[@76006linda]

Beautiful song. Simply means you can't buy your way into Heaven, no matter how much money or influence you have. The woman was wealthy and beautiful and used to getting what she wants BUT she can't buy her way into heaven.

[@АлександрАлексеевич-б9ф]

Yes !

If it hasn't been mentioned yet, The 'live' version of this, from Madison Square Garden is pure classic gold ! Jimmy page awesome sole on the 18 string / dual neck guitar, Robert Plant showing off his 'talents' too. . . . RIP John Bonham

[@workingman6681]

Great reaction to one of the best songs of all time! Now, you have to listen to Heart's tribute at the Kennedy Center Honors. They play "Stairway To Heaven" with Jason Bonham ( John Bonham- drummer for Led Zeppelin's son). It gives me chills everytime I watch the video. You will not be disappointed!

[@cjturner2008]

100%Facts!

[@philging]

Ridiculous to even bring it up in relation to this song, as if there was any debate about who wrote it. Someone always looking to make money on the back of other people's talent. Led Zeppelin - one of the greatest groups of all time - all supremely talented individuals.

[@mitchgsmovies]

Back in the 70’s growing up Led Zeppelin help shape my “fragile eggshell mind” (doors) I remember a popular DJ used to say “who’s going to teach the babies about rock n roll” (Jim Lad, KMET) it fills my heart and soul to see so many people discovering the music I grew up with. Because what would it be like to be a rock and not to roll”?

[@virginiakeleher7885]

It wasn't contraversial when it came out. Man it was another Led Zeppelin classic mind-blowing tune, y'all

[@toddcash4352]

Has anyone ever heard of the band you mentioned? Z E P P E L I N has a whole catalog of masterpieces, compiled over 10 years and 9 studio albums. Best rock band of all-time. Hands down. If tragedy hadn't struck- just think what could've been??? Anyway, they did win the lawsuit!!!

[@Vikotnick]

Im happy to see you happy and well. Hello from España!

[@mickbacon8542]

One minor criticism - you stopped the song before the end. Led Zeppelin were known for leaving gaps then coming back in a song. It was only a short piece you missed, but it was a much more dramatic ending. I can see how you thought it had ended.

[@sansabasongbird5130]

This song is uplifting, not evil.

[@pikiwiki]

enjoying the Sippington's reaction to the lyrics. Plus when they start moving to the music

[@geoffsullivan7902]

The greatest rock band ever.Jimmy Page wrote this with Robert Plant. Jimmy Page is playing a 12 string over a 6 string double neck guitar. They won the lawsuit. Plant is a big JR Tolkien fan( Lord of the Rings) and inspired him, so he wrote metaphorically sometimes. The internet has spun this story so many ways...anyway...these 4 guys didn’t need to steal from others, they wrote masterpieces their entire career.🎼🎶😎

[@marcgarcelon2927]

You have to do "Kashmir" and "Since I've Been Loving You," incredible songs. Also, check out "You Shook Me" from Led Zep 1, their first album, an incredible cover of a rhythm and blues tune by Willie Dixon -- just mind-blowing. "Stairway" is beautiful, but they got sick of playing it because everyone always wanted to hear it all the time.
