I saw that interview. I'm not so sure he was being totally honest there. I think Jason being there was a huge part of it, but when that last curtain raised and the full choir joined in there was a visible reaction. However, that's okay. It's Plant. He can be guarded about it if he wants. As you said he doesn't like any covers of Stairway, so for him to say "they did a good job" is enough.

IN order to argue with your point I would have to point to a band who did a better cover of that song. I just can't do it. So I agree, Heart knocked it out of the park. And they did it under tremendous pressure, they had 1 chance to do it right or blow it completely. It as live. There was no 'do over' option. Succeed or fail were the options. They brought it all and made this a cover we watch over and over again. Love the sisters and their contribution to Rock . This was just one more example of the talent they bring, when facing a live audience. Bravo.

@fugitive6549 7 месяцев назад

Bro, it does not exceed the OG by any means. Stop drinking copium. It was truly one of the best covers. But I would not like to listen to the orchestra and choir every time I listen to this song. The original is truly irreplicable.@@carlrice6989

Ann was 62 when they did this tribute, and her sister Nancy was 58. Ann’s voice, like most singers has changed over the decades. This was the Kennedy Center Honors, a very important honor for people in entertainment who have made a significant contribution to the arts. The drummer is Jason Bonham, the son of Led Zeppelin’s original drummer who passed away when Jason was very young. He’s wearing his dad’s signature bowler hat and playing his drum kit.

Jason Bonham is the son the late John Bonham John Bonham taught his son Jason to play the drums at a very young age and not only did Jason Bonham was wearing his dad's hat but he also was playing his dad's drums. The sisters Ann and Nancy Wilson did a great job, but the the sisters,Jason Bonham and the rest of Led Zeppelin. Robert Plant, Jimmy Page and John Paul Jones had dinner with the Obamas at the white house, and the Obamas said that they were worried about it because of their wild ways, but they said they stayed up all night having a great time and everyone was very polite.

When Ann belted out "too be a rock and not to roll" and Robert Plant (Led Zep's singer) looked on in admiration, bewilderment and tears in his eyes, you know that this was one of the classic vocal deliveries of our time. Such power and precision. She killed it. 100%. The look on Jimmy Page's face right after she said that line is one of admiration and satisfaction. To see a band that is held in such high esteem for decades look so impressed, speaks volumes. The music of Led Zeppelin will never be copied or maybe never equalled but the sisters Ann and Nancy and the band played their hearts out (pun intended - as they were the main players in the band Heart) and played a legendary performance of the song of all songs.

The best tribute to best rock band if all time!! They were all so blown away by it… you can tell… Robert was crying missing his best friend John Bonam and watching John’s son playing his drums to honor his late father!!! Sure FIRE!🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

@stevejuzefski5421 2 года назад

Ann & Nancy & Robert Plant/Zep have been friends for over 40 tears, and Ann & Nancy were huge fan girls of Zep growing up as kids/teens, long before they started the band Heart.

So after Led Zeppelin's drummer John Bonham died the band broke up and never made another album. The guy drumming in this tribute to Led Zeppelin is John Bonham's son Jason Bonham. I think that makes this rendition of Stairway To Heaven that more touching.

I had tickets to they’re concert in Philly when John died and that was all she wrote. At 13 was sooo close to seeing Led Zep perform. Total heartbreak. Love this damn video. Every time I get sucked into a reaction I rewatch the 50 others I’ve watched again. F**k my laundry and damn dishes it can wait until tomorrow. 🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼💜💜

I've never watched that through to the end before because I'm not into covers, but that look to the heavens by Jason (Bonham) at the end was very emotional, for him and for me as well

Art is subjective, but many will think this is the best cover of an iconic rock song ever.

@chestrockwell8328 2 года назад

I for one do think exactly that, best cover of any song ever. Even after probably 20 times still get goose bumps and hit in the feels...its perfection musically, vocally and the history it's all some much more that a cover song.

@guydulac3902 2 года назад

Ann has been singing this since it came out... and, for me, I prefer her vocals to even Plant's - sacrilege, I know - but I've loved Ann's voice since the 70s, even when she speaks I get the goosebumps!

@TMFitness Год назад

Imagine being Robert Plant witnessing your opus being sung to you by Anne Wilson, whilst your God Sun is sitting behind the drums. Mate.. I'm crying for him!

Heart did a tour off the heels of this performance with Jason Bohnam's band in 2013. I attended the show at Riverbend, an outdoor venue near Cincinnati. In addition to a full catalog of Heart's hits both bands encored together and did The Battle of Evermore and a version of this masterpiece, with a small choir wearing bowler hats. It was intensely epic. One of the best shows ive seen and ive been going to concerts since the mid 70s. Lots of Zeppelin classics.

@msmrsro 2 года назад

I saw Heart in concert, summer 2019, Joan Jett opened. Took my 25 year old daughter. I so hoped they would play this and they did! Not the same without the orchestra and choir, but still phenomenal.

@VanceKauffman 2 года назад

Heart & Led - Zeppelin are my two favorite bands I’ve been privileged to see Heart 4 different times live and I’ve always left amazed! Ann & Nancy Wilson are incredible musicians and very talented as well Ann can sing her ass off and Nancy can play the guitar better than most guys. If Heart ever comes to your guys neck of the woods make sure and go see them you wouldn’t be disappointed.

@jeffblevins5899 2 года назад

Growing up in Seattle, Heart's hometown, as they were coming up and building their repertoire of songs, they covered a lot of Zeppelin songs in their shows. I remember "Rock & Roll on the Dreamboat Annie tour. Zeppelin were well aware of this and were big fans of Heart - and this is why they were picked for this song. Total side note - Anne's sister, Nancy, one of the guitarists, was married to filmmaker Cameron Crow (Singles, (filmed in Seattle), and Almost Famous) and he was the first artist Zeppelin allowed to license their music for a movie soundtrack. The music circle is tight.

The event is the Kennedy Center Honors. The drummer is Jason Bonham, the son of Led Zeppelin drummer John Bonham, who's death was the direct reason Zeppelin disbanded. The hats the choir wore were a tribute to John, who wore hats like that regularly. Ann and Nancy Wilson had a Zeppelin tribute in the 90s called the Lovemongers.

@ernestallison9880 2 года назад

Before Ann & Nancy Wilson had there own recordings out and became famous, they were a club band who covered a lot of Zeppelin's music. I saw them live in '74 when they played my hometown high school and they absolutely nailed Stairway to Heaven. I can remember it as if it were just yesterday. I was a huge Zeppelin fan and was in awe of their performance.

@HalSchirmer 2 года назад

Yes, at 3:07- Ann Wilson does a magnificent job of matching Robert Plant's voice and vocal inflections- Robert Plant always sung this in a high pitch, and she's able to match him, note for note, her lower register, but perfect!

@rayallen3492 2 года назад

If you're going to listen to cover of Stairway, this is it. Can you imagine the pressure to play this "sacred cow" song for the 3 remaining members of Led Zeppelin? I noticed Yo Yo Ma, The Obamas, Bonnie Raitt, Stephen Colbert were in the audience, and John Bonham's son, Jason was on the drums.

It the Kennedy Honor for the arts. They honor people every year and the music is always good. Friends of the honorees perform some of their hits to them.

9:14 Plant explained on the Howard Stern Show why he had tears. Because seeing Jason just hit him what a loss Bonzo's death was and Jason didn't tell them he was going to be performing. It was a surprise.

@wen-nz3sk 2 года назад

Been waiting for this one!! JFK established Kennedy Center Honors, to honor those contributing in Am culture thru performing arts. It's an annual event and sitting Pres usually is in attendance, hence the Obama's. LZ was only one honoree. I watched that night in 2012 specifically for this, Heart. ❤❤ Other performers and honorees were there hence the star power. There is a key piece missing from this video. Jason Bonham was kept quiet fr Zep, so you missed his intro and Plants reaction. Now let's talk Boller hat. Bonzo was famous for wearing his ole Charlie Chaplin's boller, hence the choir and Plants strong emotional response. Plant and Bonham were very tight, teenage years, grew up together, etc. Seeing Jason, the boller, missing your friend, this amazing performance. I'd ball open faced I'm sure...face hurt crying. Ann was 62y young when she belted this out and never forget sis Nancy, the acoustical intro was perfect, set the tone perfectly. And can we just shout out to Shayne Fontayne, axeman on guitar, in front of Jimmy Page killing it!! Zep appreciated this, I absolutely treasure it!! Brad, your not a fan of the song, neither is Plant, his least fav. ❤❤

Stairway To Heaven has consistently been voted the greatest rock and roll song of all time.

@benshafer5198 2 года назад

I've seen this performance more times that I can count. Ann Wilson absolutely destroyed it. The whole show included four covers by the Foo Fighters (Rock and Roll), Kid Rock (Ramble On), Lenny Kravitz (Whole Lotta Love) and this one, which was the best of the bunch. They all did well. Kravitz killed it, as well. Jack Black did an excellent and funny intro to the whole thing. Worth checking out one or all of the performances. Cheers!
