Not sure if this was mentioned, but Ann Wilson was 62 years old when this tribute was recorded, and she was fighting the flu. What a set of pipes!

Ladies and Gentlemen..that's a tribute.

That's how you get a standing ovation from Led Zeppelin.

I do not know how often I have seen this,I lost count and everytime I do it moves me to tears. I seen Heart in the 80's with their Bad Animals tour,they are awesome, Nancy on the guitar and Ann for me is the absolutely best female singer ,the G.O.A.T for sure❤

Jason is playing his father John's drum kit, and wearing John's hat. Robert, Jimmy, and John Paul Jones didn't know Jason would be playing, they had invited him to join them at this event, Jason told them he had a previously scheduled engagement. Not many trick or treaters means more candy for Bonesy... and Wolf.

Great Reaction..Could not have picked anyone better than Ann Wilson and her sister Nancy..By the way this is the edited version..It was edited for tv time..The unedited version is up here on KZfaq..

Yo Yo Ma in the audience shown 3 times. Bonnie Rait rocking out in audience.

This performance ALWAYS brings me to tears, as I think this is the ultimate tribute to both the song and the band. You should check out the rest of the show (this was the finally) with the other performances as they were great as well - but this was the icing on the cake.

That was both a cover AND a re-imagining at the same time. All the extra elements were added so tastefully and perfectly augmented the song. That simply is the best “cover” of STH ever, and one of the best covers of anything of all time. Loved your reaction - but I’m surprised you didn’t lose it! I still do…

That was a beautiful tribute.

Many thanks guys & especially Kent ! Honestly, have never heard such a beautiful, epic cover of a powerful masterpiece !!! Yes, this was written a few decades ago, but in pop music history, this really is the equivilent to Bach's Mass in B Minor !!

Shout out to Shane Fontayne for a guitar solo good enough to impress Page, Shane's been at it since the 70s as well, and most notably had played with Springsteen during his "Other Band" tour.

April 8, 1970 - I saw Led Zeppelin perform in Dorton Arena, Raleigh, North Carolina. They had released 2 albums at that point. Zep returned for 4 encores and on the 4th, RP said "We don't have anymore songs!" Suggestions from the crowd rang out. The next thing I knew is they said "We'll do Blue Suede Shoes." The Elvis version was the only one I was aware of and I thought it a strange one to choose. But now I understand the whole blues influence. Live and finally learn. The best and my most cherished concert I've ever been to.

Now you should react to their performance of Kashmir, at the celebration day show, also with Jason on drums. They rock. Rock Gods.

"I understand that John Bonham's been dead for a while... ... sweetheart ... (shakes head)". The best YT reaction of the year. #2 was spilling coffee all over yourself while watching Rammstein. Good stuff.

Only Ann and Nancy could have done it justice. You can find the entire evening of honors in pieces on YT.

You’re welcome. Everyone should see that amazing performance, was legendary. Can’t imagine playing that in front of the band.

The hats they were wesring were a tribute to John Bonham The drummer.Thats why Robert was tearing up❤

That’s was just fantastic. The arrangement, music, singing, it was all sooo good. Glad you found and played this one. Ann Wilson said she gave herself goosebumps and surprised in a way how it came out. Nice reactions. Take care🙏🙏🙏

And Debbie Allen, and Yoyo Ma...

Chills. Every time.

By the way, Jason played his father’s drum set!!!

I Just Liked and Subscribed. 😎

They asked Jason to attend, he told them he could not make it. This was a total surprise to them.

Epic

Hi Wolfman and Suesue and dogs. FYI Ann released a new alum the end of September and they both toured this summer with their bands.Ann still has it at 73 and Nancy at 69. Heart was on tour in Florida so they had to fly back and forth.

Just in a Dutch newspaper; Ann Wilson has cancer and she has already undergone surgery. And is currently undergoing preventive chemotherapy. The band 'Heart' will not perform again this year. The singer certainly plans to be on stage again next year. “This is just a break, I have a lot more to sing,” she concludes.

Stairway to Heaven was the pub closer at university in the 70's

Just so you know, what you just witnessed is the television commercial for that performance. You really need to watch the 8 minute version.

New Album - Dark Christmas out ex Nightwish Tarja Frosty The Snowman official video.

Darn I wish somebody would scrub this shortened version off completely. It really misses a lot.

Robert plant said he will never give anyone permission to sing Stairway to Heaven except Nancy Wilson. Everyone else doesn't do it justice

Is this man having a stroke please call protective services

Awesome video guys ❤
