FIRST TIME REACTION | Led Zeppelin - "Since I've Been Loving You" 

Jimmy Page's guitar is unearthly. Robert Plant's vocals are supernatural. John Bonham's drums are exalted. John Paul Jones keyboard mystical. Together, the band of the Gods. Also, this is one of the best live blues performances of all time.

This young woman has just experienced Led-Zeppelin. Yea they knocked the $h!T out of her! Amazing!

Real musicians, playing organic music WITH each other.. no computers, no click tracks, just guys jamming together... GREAT guys at that :)

This is easily the GREATEST song ever performed or recorded. There is NOTHING BETTER.

Greatest band ever. Period. The greatest gathering of talents in the same band in the history of Music. Almost like bringing together Da Vinci, Michelangelo, Picasso and Dali to work together in the production of a work of art. Best band ever!

Nobody does live like the mighty Zeppelin…. They were & will always be the the most BADASS GOATS to ever grace the stage!!!!

This woman brought tears to my eyes within moments. She GETS it! ❤

My very first concert ever was in Montreal Canada I lived in Plattsburgh New York on USA side. My brother took me then 14 across the border on his motorcycle and we went to see Led Zeppelin 1973 .it was a memory worth the restriction I was put in for the summer. And the butt beating received for sneaking out the house and crossing the international border. Of course we ended up busted coming across the border. Parents were called to come get us. Worth every tear I shed. And I do it again and and again and again. Something in life are just that AMAZING. thank you for reading my story. Audrey

This performance is one of the reasons why Robert Plant is THE best singer/frontman in Rock n' Roll history! This performance is one of the reasons why Led Zeppelin is the Greatest Rock Band in history! Great reaction, Aileen, check out "When the Levee Breaks" "Immigrant Song" "Going to California" "Babe I'm gonna Leave You" "Ramble On" "No Quarter" "D'yer Mak'er" "Whole Lotta Love" "The Ocean" and "Stairway to Heaven" for a few jammin' tunes to keep you busy!

John Paul Jones playing the bass line with his feet as he plays the keyboard, greatness.

Hi .. I was at that concert way back in 1973 sitting in the 9th row orchestra at MSG when they were filming TSRTS .I WAS 16 years old then and I'm 66 now . Zeppelin played close to 4hrs. that night !!! Enjoy your Led Zeppelin journey , I'm still enjoying mine!!! Please listen to the song called the Ocean from the same concert u won't be disappointed trust me . Enjoy

As a young woman in 1974, I fell in love with Robert Plant when I saw them live. My date for the concert was a guitarist and was focused on Jimmy Page. Now, I can appreciate the musicianship of each member of the group. They were Rock Gods!

So many amazing songs from Led Zeppelin especially when they go live. Much more powerful

I'm an old man who has loved Led Zeppelin for a long time. I've only heard his song occasionally over the years, mainly at parties a long time ago. I don't remember it on the radio. I never really appreciated it until I started watching people react to this live version. It is an absolutely incredible performance and your reaction to it was the best I've ever seen.

I have been listening to these rock ‘n’ roll GODS for over 50 years. My first concert was Led Zeppelin at Sheffield Hall football pitch in 1972 and I have been a worshiper ever since. This is a collection of four of the most amazing musicians that ever walked on this planet

Glad to see that even the younger generation can appreciate Led Zeppelin 50yrs later. Never was and never will be a complete matching of talents in Rock music like Zeppelin. Saw them live in 1972 on their only tour of Australia and they were other worldly. Still the best concert I have ever been to and I've seen a lot. Glad you will look into more of their work. Cheers

Art is subjective of course, but you can see why Led Zeppelin is widely regarded as the greatest rock band of all time. Lead guitarist Jimmy Page is the mastermind that put the group together, wrote most of the music, and produced all the records by himself… however it is far from a one man band, each member is incredible. The crazy part is that there are over 50 more songs will amaze you like this one did. Every song from this concert (Madison square garden, June 1973) is worth checking out… great reaction, you are lovely, and I hope you keep going with Zeppelin, there are a lot of us who will join you, cheers :)

This performance is pure magic. Robert's voice wasn't at his peak but certainly he was more mature as a singer/frontman, what he does, how improvises, how express is amazing. Also Bonham plays a blues song as no one really imagined on that era ❤

This is one of the best pieces of music I’ve experienced in my life. Loved it since I was a kid, and have only gained more appreciation for it as I’ve grown. The studio version is decent, but god DAMN this version goes so hard. Greatest band of all time, and one of their best performances

The greatest band of all time. It's just staggering how good they were.

The way that Plant can monuvuer his vocals and Paige playing really bluesy not to mention possibly the greatest rhythm section of all time with JPJ and Bonham

Led Zeppelin are still the most important band in Rock n Roll history.

I have enjoyed your Reaction very much. Welcome to the Magic that IS Led Zeppelin. Your musical soul journey has just begun, it's a journey only the mighty Led Zeppelin can take you on. The music is 50+ years old. You would have LOVED the late 60's and the 70's Most of us here grew up there. Again, Welcome to magic that is Led Zeppelin.

When Giant's Walked the Earth 🌎 Led Zeppelin

Great reaction Aileen, great to see this majectic performance can still hit people hard. That's how I feel still after nearly 50 years of listening to LZ. They are individually and collectively unmatched to this day IMO.

Yes, please do listen to the studio recording of this song as well. This is one of the greatest live performances ever filmed, but the studio version is much cleaner, and more soothing, IMO. Both excellent ear candy, and more than worthy of knowing.

A _taste_ of the greatness of Led Zeppelin. The blues tracks from their catalog are next level, just like everything else they did. Their blend of blues, rock, _and others,_ are exquisite.

The greatest band of all time every album every song is different

Love your reaction to this old masterpiece! Plant had a way of captivating his audience. He oozed sex appeal through his vocals. They were amazing!

Jimmy’s guitar 🎸 is amazing. Robert Plant’s vocals are amazing as well. John Paul Jones on keyboards/bass. John Bonham is the best drummer ever! Love some Led Zeppelin!

Don't think to many live performances can top this one, no gimmicks, no frills, just the best band that ever walked this earth, they are the GOATS. Glad you liked this. As previously stated, "She gets it". One other thing, I had the honor of seeing Zep back in 77 at the Forum, the best show ever.

They were, are and WILL ALWAYS BE the ultimate rock band…

This is truly one of their best songs and one of the best performances of it!! 🤘 Wait till you see "The Rain Song" live (Jimmy Page & Robert Plant version) - You are going to cry from happiness, I promise!!! 😊

Thank you for listening to my era of music! Plus you didn't pause and talk a lot. You really listened! No band will ever equal Led Zeppelin. You have a new subscriber!

Aileen, we know how you feel! That’s how I felt when I saw them live at age 14. “Hammer of the gods” certainly describes them well. ❤. Can’t wait for you to see “In My Time Of Dying “ live at Earls Court, 1975.

Best band ever. They were, they are and will be. Forever. Also, probably, the best reaction ever. 🔝

Wow...your expressions of this performance completely matched the raw energy of the band. Took me back to a time of feeling that euphoric energy after hearing these great bands and their songs for the first time.... awesome, thanks for the post.

Great reaction Aileen wow you get so emotional! Sometimes I just want to give you a big huggy and say it's ok!😊😃🤗 Led Zep are awesome.

Welcome to the Led Zeppelin journey - its been going on since 1968. Grew up with this band .

when he lays in that scream , . thats what makes him one of the best singers ever.

Robert Plant has this unique ability of using/approaching his vocal mike (as well as its stand) as if he were having an intimate moment or regular talk with a person. He uses this to give the songs this sense of depth and humanity, as oppose to treating the mike as a piece of technology. Quite fascinating... The Earls Court version of "Going To California" is another example of his using that mike approach...

You really reflect the emotion of this song during your reaction. A+

Not just one of the best blues performances of all time, one of the best live performances of any kind. This performance alone shows why Zeppelin is one of the best bands to ever perform live.

This is arguably one of the best live performances of Led Zeppelin ever caught on video. It hits on every level and loved watching your reaction to this one.

The greatest band of all time!!!!!

Only need to watch this work of musical art to realize why the mighty Zep were on the top of the rock food chain. The swagger and soul of this performance is not of this earth. Perfect reaction Aileen!🤘

Robert Plant and Jimmy Page always had a “call & answer” thing going and John & JPJ held steady. Yes, each one got solo time aka their time to shine. Absolutely Legends!

Still watching daily in March of 2024. Zeppelin never gets old. Best band EVER!!!❤

The album version of this was from Led Zeppelin III in 1970… I thought it was from II at first until I checked. Yeah, there’s a lot of improvisation going on, both in live and studio versions. It’s a very sensual song. I don’t recall offhand which song you did earlier, but you can dig into ‘Whole Lotta Love’, ‘Immigrant Song’, ‘Gallows Pole’, ‘The Battle of Evermore’, ‘Stairway to Heaven’, ‘When the Levee Breaks’, and ‘Kashmir’.

The greatest band to ever grace the stage. To do Zeppelin right you need to start at the beginning. First song side one of Led Zeppelins debut album Led Zeppelin 1. Jimmy page produced all of the albums and he changed the way studio recordings were done. His masterful genius innovated 16 track recordings, reverse echo, reverb, added mics to amps, distortion, phasing, precision mic placement on the drums,acoustical recording studios not rooms. All of these things were never before done. So imagine hearing this first album in 1969 the overdubs the call and response, The thunderous drums and the precise instrumentation with 4 of the very best masterful musicians on the planet. Forever changed the way music was recorded, heard, and performed. Led Zeppelin influenced every band that followed and still does to this day. That's why I say start at the beginning then you will hear and feel the progression and total diversity of the band. There was literally nothing they could not do. And that becomes evident by the 3rd album. Each album unique and different. Remember we had to wait 6 month or a year before we could go buy the next led zeppelin album. So every day you played that record from begging to end. With each new song now becomes your new favorite. Until you hear the next track and your blown away again. This experience goes on throughout every album. In my opinion the anticipation, excitement and mind blowing eargasms you will have when you play full albums from start to finish the way Jimmy produced them to be heard. Give you the best understanding of just how much this band set the bar on the music screen. Timeless music that fills our soul. This journey is a long one. But after taking it you will never hear music the same. Here's my suggestion start with the first album studio versions. After that then do live recordings of tracks from that album. And repeat that throughout all their albums. By doing this you will see the masteries of the studio. Then the adlib of taking a 3 minute song into a one of a kind 30 minute live performance. Every live performance the songs changed. There shows would go from 2 hours to 3 1/2+ hours long . Literally a jam session that featured all 4 members equally taking the music in any direction they wanted without missing a beat. When you hear Dazed and confused live specifically from 1973 MSG. You will witness the best live recording that has ever been made in the history of live performances by any band from any era. I cannot wait to follow you down this rabbit hole. I love your heart felt reactions and this journey will change your life. Every day I still after 50 years start my day with getting the Led out. Never gets old. I can't wait to see how it effects you.🤘🤘🤘

After all these years…it’s still fresh…and it always makes you smile

my house echoed with Charlie pride , Johnny cash , Glen cambell , Tammy wynette , Dolly pardon as a kid , all this changed when my brother came home with that album with the cigar on it , i was young not realizing it was an airship , so this is when i knew i had a type of music at 12 years old this band seduced me and i became addicted , in the following years getting exposed to more types of music on the radio there was always a definite heart tug when i heard a new LZ song for the first time it was euphoric , LZ had a fantastic undeniably self style , uplifting to my soul ! the yearning for Led Zeppelin never diminished as im 60 now and every time I hear any of their tunes the biggest grin washes over my face and get all warm inside , many thanks to the talents of Led Zeppelin , RIP John Bonham you are missed .

You have been blessed by the presence of THE rock gods with this video! Led Zeppelin has ways of making a song be a transcendent experience for people. I remember a version of this video, probably taken from the entirety of the live performance (this one is partly live and partly clips so it has been edited), when you see the looks on the faces of a few people in the audience, and they are absolutely captivated by what they are hearing and seeing. One woman obviously was stoned out of her mind, but another woman looks serene at first and then suddenly like Robert Plant aroused her from dozens of feet away! The funny thing is, and I can't exactly recall all the details, but several, if not all of the band, was up for a few days straight and jet lagged when they performed at Madison Square Garden. Absolutely sleep deprived. However, they gave the best freaking concert they could in that state of mind and it was purely magical, and hell, it's still talked about nearly 50 years later! If it wasn't being filmed, no one today would have known except the people in that audience. One of my favorite Led Zeppelin songs that will blow your mind: "In My Time Of Dying" It's a spiritual experience with that heavy touch of good ol' blues!

There are many Led Zeppelin live performances that are as good as this one. Imo the one that exceeds this in pure magic is "In My Time of Dying" from Earl's Court 1975. Some other notable live performances are almost any "Dazed and Confused" and "Kashmir" from Celebration Day 2007. This was a great reaction, so far the only one I've seen that actually matched the energy of the song. The Zeppelin rabbit hole is a great one to venture into.

Led Zeppelin, the perfect musical storm. Legends ❤❤❤❤

Eileen, I know how much you love Led Zeppelin, so you HAVE TO listen and react to The Song Remains the Same and Rain Song, live at Madison Square Garden 1973. It’s the same concert that Since I’ve Been Lovin You you just reacted to. Trust me.. you will LOVE IT!!

Just about every live Zep video makes you feel this way, dear. This concert footage just has a little extra something for the ladies, thanks Robert. 😘

I LOVE how you be feeling that music! Empathy with its story. What a great reaction.👍

Damn girl. You really dived your soul into the tune. That's what Led Zeppelin cause to people.

You should listen to Led Zeppelin once a day. It's good for your soul. If you don't have Led Zeppelin in your Playlist, then you DON'T have a playlist.

Great reaction. Really enjoyed your pure joy and genuine excitement. The power of a truly epic performance.

Just found you here and loved your reaction. I saw them twice in 1979 the last gigs in the UK. Never to be forgotten! The studio version is great but much more controlled than this amazing performance. There are so much great stuff from this Madison Square concerts. Try Stairway to Heaven or Black Dog or Rock n Roll . Regards from the UK 🇬🇧

Saw them once in my life I was 17 years old and let me say that I remember it always i know i was lucky 😁👌

When I was a teen of the 1970's, some movie theaters in Orange County CA at midnight would play the entire Song Remains the Same concert show which is what you are watching, with monster speaker system to give you the feeling you are there front and center. Great times I must say. Some good smoke goes with it for sure. And your reaction is priceless!

Best band ever. Untouchable live. Jimmy bypasses your eyes and plays straight to your soul!!

So you finally found this masterpiece! Love your reaction. I've seen and heard several versons of it but this gets me every time. It's like an injection of positive energy. So, your next reaction should be "Kashmir" live at Knebworth 1979. John Bonham is wild, to put it mildly. Edit: I see now that you have done "Kashmir" already. So please watch "The Song Remains the Same" and "Rain Song" from the movie The Song Remains the Same.

"They NEED to play"... Perfectly stated🤘

When Iwas kid FM 104.7 in Toledo Ohio had every Sunday night for headphones only and played Zeppelin Albums often in the 1970's. Those were there days for rock music in heyday.

Great reaction Aileen 💙 thanks. LED Zeppelin were amazing back then. And Robert was just... mmmm 😚

Simply the greatest live performance of all time!

Watching you experience that for the first time was an experience for me in itself. Some songs and performances by Zeppelin can’t be put into words. The music made in that era will remain unmatched. Takes you on an emotional and spiritual joy ride. Zeppelin found a way to tap into your soul. Same with Sabbath, Hendrix, etc. Zeppelin was extremely special and unique.

I've seen and listened to this tens of thousands of times over my 50 years and to this day, seeing page play OFF HIS FACE like that live still makes me smile! And your reaction the plants vocals, just the emotion on your face ❤

Both the song and this live performance is a masterpiece. It is my favorite song of all time. God damn!

John Bonham was one of if not the greatest drummers of all time. He passed away in 1980 and it was so devastating to the band they decided not to continue. Thats how important he was to Led Zeppelin and their iconic sound

For me, this was always the standout song on the Zeppelin 3 album. I've loved it for years

Led Zeppelin was an absolute beast of a band!!

The Zepps were and are more than just music, which by the way is great. They are a whole experience if you let yourself connect with them. This is what good music does takes you by the hand and shakes your soul. 🎉

I’ve seen so many Reactions to this video and yours is #1. There are so many ‘moments’ and a lot of listeners pause just when you know something amazing is going to happen…and pause too many times. Thank you for not making it about you! Led Zeppelin, yes … gods!

Ha ha. Fun reaction! It's always fun to see peoples jaws drop when seeing a classic for the first time. Amazing this show was 50 years ago now. I think you'd love everything from the film The Song Remains The Same. The Rain Song, Stairway To Heaven, Celebration day, all of them. Cheers!

what you just saw? is ledgendary. can't ever be recreated. and i was lucky to see them in '73. tue 4 greatest musicians ever assembled in one band. 🙏🏻🙏🏻thanks for doing this.

Hearing robert plants voice always makes me want to go sing karaoke in a bar or a pub that’s how epic his voice is

This was the music we listened to when I was in high school. LZ was my favorite band, but I didn’t appreciate how really special they and their music were, or that it wouldn’t last forever.

Led Zep are the gods of rock. I am not surprised they may be the best thing on the channel so far.

I've seen a whole lot of song reactions on this platform but I've never seen someone so emotionally invested in a song like this. As for recommendations, there's always the tried-and-true Stairway to Heaven (Live at Madison Square Garden version only. The guitar solo is iconic and the ending is very soulful). Like others have said, there really is no bad Led Zeppelin song. Considering how many songs they have that's incredible.

New subscriber and THANKS for doing what you are doing. There are so many millions of people who have never heard the real music of the 60s & 70s. There wasn't the technology that makes music fake today, and musicians actually had to practice and PLAY & SING with each other. Reminds me of an early Eagles cut where there's a whole lot of hand clapping going on, and they actually had to clap their hands to the beat. You have SO MUCH to learn and to share. THANKS, again !!

Robert Plant in his prime! He was the first rock star that I had a HUGE crush on. While my girlfriends were listening to the Jackson Five and the Osmonds, I was listening to Zeppelin.

Zeppelin ALWAYS best served live!!!

The emotions that you feel from their songs is so powerful. Thats what helped make them special. Listen to Babe i'm gonna leave you or going to california for example and see how his emotions and feelings are in every note.

I just subscribed. Wow I have never seen such an emotional reaction as yours to this song. I grew up in the 70s and saw Zeppelin in 77. Its so cool seeing such a beautiful soul as you loving this song. Their live performances were out of this world especially the indoor shows such as this legendary Madison Square Garden concert. This is the kind of music we of this era grew up with, not only Led Zeppelin the greatest rock band in the world but so many other classic bands and songs. Please keep reacting to Zep, there are so many great songs. One you will love is a song called "Thank You" and also "Ten Years Gone"... Love from the Bay Area, California

I was nice to be a 17 year old when this came out and a guitarist … and “experimenting” with things …. 🌈 this was a movie soundtrack “The song remains the same” … they were at the pinnacle performing at Madison in New York City!!!

And this is why Led Zeppelin are considered The Best Rock Band of All Time! (No disrespect to the Beatles, Pink Floyd and Black Sabath) the musicianship is absolutely incredible!

Hello Aileen,😁 You look absolutely amazing as always🥰Well,The studio version is a must listen as well. That’s how I learned to play it (not like Jimmy but I did okay). It’s a masterpiece of which Led Zep has many of. But as always when they play live, it’s an all out “free form funkyfied jam!!!” That’s just how they roll 😆🎸 Much love 💕 to you Rock 🤟On Baby 🫵✌️🫶❤💖

Love love love Led Zeppelin 😍Thank you so much for your wonderful reaction to my absolute favorite song with Robert Plant 👍😊Zeppelin are fantastic to experience live, saw them a few times in the 70s, but this particular song from this concert I think is not as good as the studio version where Robert Plant puts so much more emotion into the song, so you can't help but cry. I think you should give it a try 😍👍 Since I've Been Lovin' You: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-K8R7zjJMIfU.html&ab_channel=BlackDog

So happy you listened to this and were moved by it. One of my desert island songs. Cheers.

THE STUDIO VERSION WITH THE HEADPHONES! first listened to it in 1971... blew me away! one of the best ever... love your reaction!!!! you are wonderful!

They have a ton of live versions of their songs. You should definitely do more as soon as possible

Aileen - Clearly you need to dig into Zep's material! There are many more songs by them that will blow your mind and make your heart beat faster. For an example of one of their acoustic masterpieces, check out Going to California. Make sure you choose the Earl's Court 1975 live video. Enjoy!!

I can totally understand your reaction. When most of us first saw and heard the song - we were in awe. They poured so much of their beings into their music. Half way through the song when you look like you lost your mind - I began to weep. We miss John Bonham, the drummer, so much. So elated that you're elated. These guys ruled the 1970s - they outsold the Rolling Stone, The Who, The Grateful Dead and even Elvis Presley. This song was recorded July 27th, 28th or 29th in 1973 at Madison Square Garden. ❤

Led Zeppelin. No one has ever or will be BETTER!!

Great reaction. Pretty much every song they have is incredible. If you want awesome vocals, try "Babe I'm gonna leave you", or "You shook me".
