To answer your question, "Why'd they make it 8 minutes though?"...they're not selling us a song, they're selling us an experience. You can't confine and rush those things my guy.
@@latachia_2981 2112 was 20 minutes Supper's Ready was 23 minutes Echoes was 23 minutes Atom Heart Mother was 23 minutes Thick As A Brick was 46 minutes Great music knows how to exceed time boundaries!
"Why'd they make it 8 minutes though?......." Because 8 minutes and 45 years later we STILL can't get enough of this song! BEST. ROCK. EVER! Hit that like button on my comment if you jammed this from your bicycle handles on your transistor radio riding around with your neighborhood buddies in 1975
@@zosomoso No matter how technically gifted one is, it's all about emotional content. I know you were highlighting what's most important. I gotcha brother 😁🎸
Puff Daddy did a song, Come With Me, with this song sampled. The song is incredible in that the drums and singer are in 4/4 time and the instruments are in 3/4 time so it only hits together every few measures and is seamless. It is truly incredible.
The interesting thing about this song is that there are 2 different time signatures happening simultaneously. If you don't know, a time signature is how many beats are in each measure. For example, the most common is 4/4, meaning each measure has 4 quarter notes. Ex: 1, 2, 3, 4, 1, 2, 3, 4, et cetera Another common one is 3/4, so there are 3 quarter notes per measure. This is often used in Waltz music or ballads. Ex. 1, 2, 3, 1, 2, 3 et cetera Kashmir has both of these time signatures going on at the same time. The drums are in 4/4 but the guitars are in 3/4. Drums: 1, 2, 3, 4, 1, 2, 3, 4, 1, 2, 3, 4, 1 Guitars: 1, 2, 3, 1, 2, 3, 1, 2, 3, 1, 2, 3, 1 Notice, beat 1 of each measure only syncs up every 12 beats, hence 3×4=12. This is known as a Polymeter and is very rare in music, but is often found in Progressive Rock bands like Rush, Genesis, Tool, Queen, King Crimson, and plenty more.
brilliant and clear explanation and maybe that's why their music always had a resounding catch recurring that kept me into the music so well. it's like an affirmation when they hit together again and the other groups you named are all advanced musicians. Thanks for this explanation !
Great explanation and another reason why this song is god tier. I'm listening to the bridge (or what ever it's called) at around 3:40 ish and it sounds like all the parts sync up to the same time signature and then after a while it goes back to two different time signatures. Please correct me if I'm wrong.
As a Zeppelin fan, and someone who lost her father at age 13.. I was thinking what a absolute magical way to meet someone.. Your parents I'm sure had the best night! Happy birthday to your Daddy! I think about my dad and I feel like I was robbed because I didn't have him growing up. 💔 but it's comforting to know I will see him again. God bless and long live Zeppelin!! 😊🍀
Zeppelin is everywhere every walk of life . You can argue about the number one band of all time Beatles , Stones , or zeppelin... not any particular order .. they are all the greatest in their own right ...
Like most of their songs, this was heavaly influinced by the booksof"The Lord of The Rings". The quote "Elders of aGental Race" is talking about Elves. Misty Mountain Hop is another one.
This is from a time when mainstream music told stories other than money, sex, guns, like what is out there now, and the sound was more than sts, sts, sts. My teenagers listen to new stuff and also a lot of 70’s - 90’s and evening they admit 90% of today’s music is the same shallow crap.
The best thing about that movie was almost surely its soundtrack. Tracks from Puff Daddy, Jamiroquai, Rage Against the Machine, The Wallflowers, Fuel, Silverchair, and Foo Fighters...absolutely packed with great music. 💯🖖✌
This music was big during the tail end of the Vietnam War. The band was one of many that spoke about trips (taken mentally through the use of) mind enhanced drugs. The background rifts make it feel tense in and maintains this tensed feeling throughout as the singer tells his story of the journey he has been on. This song is one of the best songs rock songs ever written during this time in music history.
Next time you listen to one of your hip hop songs, you just might be listening to Zeppelin and not even know it. Like this song for instance, it was sampled by Puff Daddy along with Jimmy Page. It’s always good to check out the original source.
@@daemonicstar Just looked it up. Jimmy is actually playing the riff in the song. Said his son was into rap, and did it as a way to get into rap/hip hop to relate to his son James Patrick III. In the pieces I just found and read it did not give a dollar amount. Back then in 1998, there were articles about it, and thought it had given an amount. Lived a bit in between then and now
I remember liking the Puff Daddy song (Come With Me) as a teenager when it came out, then having my mind blown by Kashmir in my 20s when I discovered Zeppelin’s catalogue.
I just love this song. No matter how many decades that I have listen to this, it stills grabs my attention and gets me grooving. Sometimes 8 minutes was not long enough. Thanks for sharing.
Check out "When the Levee Breaks" from Led Zeppelin IV. Its a re-worked country blues song from 1929 by Memphis Minnie and Kansas Joe McCoy about the Great Mississippi flood of 1927. Another iconic John Bonham drum beat.
Apples!!! 😊 As a female Led Zeppelin fan since 1973 (yeah, I'm ancient 😘), "Kashmir," to me, is the best Zeppelin song because of its all encompassing aspect. It showcases the band at their peak in 1975. The album, Physical Graffiti, has 4 distinct sides. Another excellent song from the record is "In My Time of Dying." Another lengthy tune that doesn't seem that long while listening to it. Other great tunes: Communication Breakdown, Babe I'm Gonna Leave You, Heartbreaker, Ramble On, Gallow's Pole, Since I've Been Loving You, Hey Hey What Can I Do, Rock and Roll, The Battle of Evermore, Over the Hills and Far Away, The Crunge, Achilles' Last Stand, Nobody's Fault But Mine, Hots On For Nowhere, All My Love. This list should give you a very complete look at Zeppelin!! ✌(◕‿-)✌
@@jameschenard7691 Since there is a Big Bang, and everything that is had have come into existence from that, there is nothing "artificial." All that is, is.... "Ten Years Gone" was written by Page as an instrumental until Plant told him he could put lyrics to it. Thus, we have ANOTHER excellent Zep tune!! 😊😊
@@justineapril7922 I was in a rush going out the door to work when I commented... hope I didn’t come across snarky with my 10 Years Gone addendum. You’re list was spot on. I remember some Heart fans that for reasons beyond comprehension weren’t familiar with Zep. I put on Achilles’ Last Stand...and they were like...Barracuda?!?
When you fell back in the bed for a minute it reminded me that's the best way to listen to Led Zeppelin. Sure you can't do that in a reaction but that is the best way to listen to them on your own: lying down, lights out or dim with headphones and let them carry you on a journey. this song ,as with their others, is best listened to over and over again. It will always take you deep.
Oh! Do yourself a favor and find the version of this from the "No Quarter" album. Its only Robert Plant and Jimmy Page accompanied by an orchestra, but it is an AMAZING and distinctly different version with more of a Middle Easter vibe to it that in no way makes it sound any less powerful and amazing!
Listen to "The Battle of Evermore" by Zeppelin for that Lord of the Rings feel...very different not sure you'll like it but that fantasy feeling is great for me.
"the Lovemongers" do a cover version that is bang on. It was on the "Single" soundtrack. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-q7DxFQ6FhzQ.html
Apples!!! You have heard this before prob from Diddy "Come with me"! I totally appreciate ur open mind when it comes to all different music! Watching u react to bands like Led Zeppelin, Lenard Skynyrd, Billy Idol n others , it reminded me of my days in the military in the 80s n for some it was the first time they were hanging with ppl from different races n being exposed to different styles of music n they liked it!
@@anthonyv6962 yeah, they done a lot of old blues songs. Im glad they did because i never would've heard of them. They wrote a lot of songs also. Im just glad the young ones get to experience good music. These days music is not the same to me
@@patrickseevers3858 good is subjective. Todays music is good to today's youth. The adults don't care for it just like when you were a kid. The cycle continues.
@@patrickseevers3858 my point was the elders never like the music of the youth. The kids are more likely to enjoy classic rock than you are to enjoy Cardi B and WAP.
Hey, this is my FAVORITE 🤩 Led Zep song! Great you found it. It‘s so much fun to watch you enjoy it! The „Star Wars Villain“ might be „Godzilla“, the movie from 1998, I think. Jimmy Page, guitarist of Zeppelin, „borrowed“ the song to Puff Daddy for the soundtrack. He also played the guitars for the „Come with me“ on the soundtrack and appeared in the video.
My daughter is 17 and listens to all music genres, from rock, new wave, bluegrass, rap, contemporary etc. and it's fun to watch young people listen to some of the greats from before they were born and really appreciate it. Kudos to you for having an open mind!
Now you know why some of us are Led heads until we're dead. Immigrant Song is another on you might like and that was utilized on one of the Thor movies (too faded to remember which one)
The Immigrant Song and Kashmir were both played this weekend during the NFL playoff games as they went to commercial breaks at the end of a quarter. On different networks no less! These guys will never be forgotten
“Preparing for war“, excellent impression. And eating pancakes with maple syrup as you do so. Cool reaction. You really got into it. I remember when this came out. Landmark song. Hadn’t really heard anything like it before. I saw them do this live in concert, it was awesome.
@@kimberlysaffles9332 I know. I do feel fortunate about when I was born. Not to be morbid but it was at the same venue where some people got trampled to death at The Who concert a couple years later. That didn’t surprise me much because I got lifted into the air waiting in a huge crowd outside when they only opened a few doors to let everyone in for the general admission concert.
@@mickeyhank that’s crazy. I love going to festivals and concerts but I’m getting too old for the festivals. Being in the middle of all those people crammed together is scary.
This song is about their top to India,. They fell in love with India. They tripped with elders of the gentle race. Excellent song!!! Very deep and open minded.
Nope. Incorrect. facebook.com/jimmypage/posts/10157232887802612:0 Read Page's post yourself. If they went to Morocco in 1975, how is it that Kashmir was recorded in 1974? Page wrote the riffs in 1973. At the time Kashmir was finished, the only one in the band that had been to Morocco was Plant in 1973.
Amo, amo e amo demais o Led Zeppelin! Robert Plant, Jimmy Page, John Paul e John Bonham são maravilhosos! Hugs! From Ilha de Paquetá - Rio de Janeiro - RJ - Brasil com S! ✨💖🇧🇷
Zeppelin are the Grand Fathers of Metal IMHO, Not because they are at Grand father ages now, but that they invented the Metal sound back in the early 70's and created a whole new Genre of Rock N Roll that has become the bed rock of all types of Metal Music today. Can't wait to see where it goes next ...Peace!
Puff Daddy's song "Come with Me" sampled this song and was featured in one of the Godzilla movies. LZ probably is the most sampled group for rap artist of all time.
@LFR Jojo I think it's awesome to see just how inspired and moved you are by this great Music!!! It really is great to share your journey with you as you experience what has to be the most monumental composition in not just Rock music history, but all contemporary modern Music. I was 14 when I first heard this, and it hit me like a sledgehammer! But in a good way 🙂 it's the greatest song of Peace ever, because it mixes musical styles from both East and West......only Art can form the olive branch. Peace and Love from the UK! ❤
Led Zepplin's bassist, John Paul Jones, also plays the keyboards. For this song he played a special keyboard known as a mellotron, which provided the string orchestra sound, instead of the traditional bass sound.
Many of the greatest rock stars of the 60s and 70s were trained to play classical music as they were children of the 50s and that's what parents encouraged (forced) the boys to learn. I know the VanHalen brothers were the Beatles, Zeppelin and many others. That's why the could play and create complicated interesting music.
The song is 8 minutes because 3 just wont do for all of the Led Zeppelin greatness. I suggest watching some live Zeppelin so you can see Jimmy Page play the guitar with a Celo bow.
Oh, my friend, you are about to go on a musical journey that will change the landscape of music for the rest of your life! Hit that "When the Levee Breaks", and prepare for one of the most low down, dirty, sexy songs ever recorded.
Incredible time to be alive. And in LA (calf) and listening to KMET/KLOS radio stations as they played all the group's before any other station in the USA. Hears LZ first time here!! What a time to live. So many memories..
The drummer John Bonham is a legend s king upon kings. All modern day drum rifts have their bases in him and this is one their most famous songs. I don’t think you realize how much this song turned the entire music culture on its head back in the day. This drum rift is one of the most complex drum rifts ever produced. It actually is inverted over a 2/4 beat and then completely flipped upside down and run backwards. If you listen to some of the greats in the industry they’ll tell you that the song Kashmir has one of those complex drumming riffs ever produced in history. To be very honest with you if it was not for this song rap music probably would not even exist today. Led Zepplin was a legend of legends in the music industry.
Listen to "no quarter". Medevil setting. No quarter means " take nothing leave nothing" like take no shit or prisoners, start no shit, leave no prisoners.
They made it 8 minutes long because there is a minimum length to register a composition as a classical music piece in the UK, which allowed them a much longer copyright protection and royalties. All songs where they used "classical" instruments had to be over a certain length, which is either 6 or 8 minutes, I forget
Hi, I'm almost 53, I really enjoy your content. I'm familiar with a lot of the music you react to, and I'm familiar with a lot of the newer music too. All kinds of music. It's so cool seeing you enjoy stuff you wouldn't normally listen to. Anything by Led Zeppelin is probably gonna be good. 😁 there's So Much good music out there to explore ❤️❤️❤️
The strings are from a Mellotron. It was sort of a paleo-sampler. It was a keyboard instrument, and each key played a literal tape loop. The two most common sounds were strings, like this, and choir - listen to Genesis songs like "The Cinema Show" for a taste of that. The tape loops were in a rack that you would swap out like a giant cassette tape. The Beatles' "Strawberry Fields Forever" has an iconic Mellotron string part.
When you grow up on this music you just take it for granted that everyone knows it. It's a bit sad that (generally) the younger generations are only introduced to these classics when they are sampled in other songs. And even then the sample, the 'hook' is presumed to be by the samplers.
8 minutes was a respectable length, but it wasn't all that long for the 70's. Some bands had songs that filled an entire side of the record, around 20 minutes (or more). This was the era of AOR - album-oriented rock - when records were meant to be heard all at one go and had intricate storylines through the album. Also, there was the weed factor - most rock bands understood at least a good percentage of their listeners were going to be stoned. :D
as a guitar player i can safely say i dont know whether led zeppeling being great is a curse or a blessing. they are really fun to cover and incredibly challenging but just easy enough to slip ur feet in. they are truly a peak guitarists must long to get to.
This song was in the top 20 before Star wars was even thought of. The sound and melody was a riff that became an Eastern tone by mistake... A valuable one....
1:48 This beat is "from" exactly where you're hearing it. Unlike much of their earlier fare, which was, um, liberally borrowed as an homage to their blues progenitors (Willie Dixon, Albert King, Howling Wolf etc al), this was pure Zep (well, with some literary references). You probably know it from Puff Daddy on the 1997 Godzilla soundtrack, but it was also used by Schooly D back in the 80s.
