Tribal People React to KASHMIR For The First Time 

Not a word they hear can they relate, but the story is quite clear.

All the gentlemen have it right, "Kashmir" is a metaphor for that distant and exotic place we all yearn to see, but are either incapable of, or perhaps even dread, traveling to.

I love how the elder gentleman called Bonham Ustad. Here's a person with such a different context for this music and in just a few minutes of exposure can see what we all know Bonham was a master at his craft.

"None of the others had it." Absolutely the truth, there will never be another like the mighty led zeppelin.

They should listen to the version with the Egyptian orchestra

The older gentleman calling Bonham an 'Ustad' is so spot on. Even he noticed the greatness of Bonham's drumming. Love these reactions!

I think Mashoque and Muharam are rockers at heart. Rock on my friends. 🎸❤🇨🇦

I love it when Bonzo is tearing it up and the gentleman says "Hit it!" I said that same thing listening to this in 1975 when I was 16...

Robert Plant has said this is his favorite of all their songs. It's one of mine as well

Goes to show that in any language Zeppelin rocks hard.

Muharam Khan is the most emotional and passionate of them, he gets excited at every band. If he was born in the western world, he would be front row at many live gigs 🤘

Cheers to these Noble Gentlemen!

Abdul hit the nail on the head: We are all travelers. Wise words from a wise man. I think, that's like going far away to come home...In thoughts as well as in real life.

This was the perfect Led Zeppelin song to play for these gentlemen...Most people like the song but don't understand it, but they understood it. They really felt the passion in Robert Plants voice and appreciated the musicians. Led Zeppelin is the greatest Rock band "Ever"...This was a great reaction!

The song _Kashmir_ is based on the book _Lost Horizon_ by James Hilton (1933). The term "Shangri-La" included in the lyrics is your first clue.

I’ve listened to this music for years and years and years. It means a great deal to me, but hearing how these gentlemen feel it themselves opens up a little gap in my own knowledge. It makes me see it fresh again. Worthy insights. ♥️

Thank Goodness!! Zeppelin!!!!..The 70's kicked serious rear! Im 70 and I am sooo happy they get to listen to something like this. They have been "ROCKED"!!

Introducing them to Zeppelin is the best thing you can do!!

I was 16 years old when I discovered this song. It was 1995 and my friend Genna was a Led Zeppelin fan so she was playing their music when we hung out and I was immediately hooked. That was 28 years ago. This song has never left my playlist.

this has always been my favourite song from led zeppelin, its what made me aware of kashmir. here in canada we do not learn much about india, pakistan or central asia at all, even though we were in wars there, many ppl have no idea other than what news tells them, and arent aware of history or the culture of the areas. im glad to have indian and pakistani coworkers here in canada, ive learned a lot about the region through talking with them with my limited knowledge. i am not trying to compare the two countries, you both are beautifully distinct places that i hope to visit one day. my doctor is pakistani aswell, he is my favourite doctor ive had so far as he suggests lifestyle changes and diet changes before medicine, unless its necessary. so many doctors here will not give you the time of day and just try the quick and easy approach to dealing with you, which isnt the best approach. he doesnt hide that he uses his upbringing in pakistan to suggest inclusions to diet and lifestyle, as a young man i really appreciate his input, i can tell he truly cares about his patients.

Muharam is a music lover and watching him react with such passion makes me feel so happy.

" The real journey is this life and this light that we are in . Like this light has its life , even its journey has to end " ... enough said ^^

My father was listening to Led Zeppelin before I was born. I have so many fond memories with him attached to Led Zeppelin. ❤

💗Good People! Abdul Aziz Eyes shined really deeply. I love this man.

This is pretty good put Kashmir page and plant with an Egyptian orchestra on the no quarter tour is another level ... But at the end of the day it's beautiful ✌️

It will be nice to now share with them the version in the Celebration day concert, when they are older, wiser, more mature in their skills, certainly Robert's voice

Precious Gift. Thank you.

Love when you show all three men watching together.

Incredible.. we share a heart!! xo

I both truly amazed at what the elders know-and how much they don’t. Truly one of my fav channels!

Love from America to all you gentlemen.

It's such a privilege to get to witness the original "WOW" effect from all of those pearls this world and its people gifted us and we take for granted too often.

Yes, Chacha, John "Bonzo" Bonham is definitely an Ustad - to drummers like me, one of the very most high of the very most high. Not only do we have him to thank for so much great music and so much inspiration and influence on how we play our instrument, I personally have him to thank for being a musician at all. I heard Led Zeppelin for the first time when a friend played it for me at school when I was 13, and that was it - I wanted to do what I was hearing. Sadly, he died young at only 31 years old from the effects of alcoholism, only months after this performance was recorded in fact, and the band immediately ended. They put out a very brief statement that said that with the death of their friend, "we can no longer go on as we were." This was a band of four Ustads, and contributions of Ustad John Paul Jones on bass, keyboards, and so many other instruments are the most underrated when people talk about them. He was the mortar that held the bricks together.

I'm here for some Muharam. Commenting before I even watch the whole thing because my boy is here

i love these people so much

It would be fun to see a reaction to Robert Plant and Allison Krause's work. And older Plant and totally different style. Love every single video. 💜💛

he is right, Kashmir can be a state of mind . . and maybe it is? "I'm a traveler of both time and space To be where I have been .... my shangrila beneath the summer moon, I will return again"

As a young kid 6 years of age (1982 something), my english was bad and when I heard this song Kashmir I was thinking it was some kind of rice, like Jasmin, Basmati. Then when the music kicked in, I was just - WOW!! Now hearing these young gentlemen talk about it it makes me feel like a kid again - in a good way. Such an wonderful and bombastic song. Great video. PEACE and prosperity to you all.

Awesome! Love to our Trybal friends.

Led Zeppelin Lyrics "Kashmir" Oh, let the sun beat down upon my face With stars to fill my dreams I am a traveler of both time and space To be where I have been Sit with elders of the gentle race This world has seldom seen Talk of days for which they sit and wait All will be revealed Talk and song from tongues of lilting grace Whose sounds caress my ear But not a word I heard could I relate The story was quite clear Oh, oh Oh, oh Ooh, baby, I been flying No yeah, mama, there ain't no denying Oh, ooh, yeah I've been flying Mama, mama, ain't no denying, no denying Oh, all I see turns to brown As the sun burns the ground And my eyes fill with sand As I scan this wasted land Trying to find, trying to find, where I've been Oh, pilot of the storm who leaves no trace Like thoughts inside a dream Here is the path that led me to that place Yellow desert stream My Shangri-La beneath the summer moon I will return again Sure as the dust that floats high in June When moving through Kashmir Oh, father of the four winds, fill my sails Across the sea of years With no provision but an open face Along the straits of fear Oh, oh Oh, oh Ooh Oh, when I'm on, when I'm on my way, yeah When I see, when I see the way, you stay-yeah Ooh, yeah-yeah, ooh, yeah-yeah, when I'm down Ooh, yeah-yeah, ooh, yeah-yeah, but I'm down, so down Ooh, my baby, ooh, my baby, let me take you there Oh come on, oh, let me take you there... let me take you there Ooh, yeah-yeah, ooh, yeah-yeah, let me take you there... let me take you there

Thats right lads John Bonham was the center of Led Zeppelin

Morocco was a popular country to visit by musicians in the late 60's/early 70's. They went there to experience the music, culture, and its famous hashish.

This is my favorite Zeppelin song. I’m so glad you chose this one. You guys are all great and intuitive men with good hearts. You guys should go on tour to do live shows and come to Southern California. People would pay good money to see you do this live with live translations both ways. You should live translate the lyrics to them using software or AI. I’d love to meet you all. Additionally, you guys speak so fast, please try to slow down the subtitles

I just searched for this last week thinking it was done a couple of years ago. Apparently, someone must have done the same thing and said, "Oh, well, if we didn't do it yet, who isn't looking for it!?" Thank you for sharing.

I like how these guys are getting into the existentials of this song.

These men are beautiful souls

I watch quite a few interviews with Robert. He said he wished their band could be remembered for this song, rather than "Stairway to Heaven."

This is great! I'm so glad to hear the elders listen to a song, which to me, is about them.

2:16 "The real journey is this life and it's light that we are in. Like this light has a life too, even its journey has to end." Wow, so profound and they haven't even started the music yet! I wonder what sort of philosophical wisdom the western world had missed out on because of our prejudices.

I think a reaction on Ustad Bonham's masterpiece "Moby Dick" would be interesting

It should be mentioned that at the time Morocco and Kashmir were both famous for hash, which is exactly what this song feels like.

John Bonham is universal

I love how quiet and transfixed they get when Bonham starts doing his crazy fills. Bonzo blows everyone's minds,

No matter what culture, Led Zep is amazing.

Tribal gentlemen nailed it again. Such a joy to watch them appreciate the genius skill of drummer John Bonham.

I'm so blown away by you guys and your insights!! Would love to hear their reaction to the Live version of The Song Remains The Same/Rain Song.

One of the best songs of all time. Takes me back to a time and makes me feel that same way

When I was a kid, this was my favorite song I'd discovered. It's still right up there toward the top. It just has a groove and a feel to it like no other, but also feels like you've known it all your life, you just needed that band and those instruments to reveal what you already had playing in your heart. They seem to really love guitar music, you should have them watch Steve Vai play with an orchestra his instrumental guitar song called For The Love of God. A truly magical piece of music and shows what an amazing musician he is, as he wrote all the parts, he went to school and learned to write for every instrument.

It gives me chills watching these men experience something that has been a delight to me all my life. I can see them get their own chills from the music and that feeling of a thrill extends to me, letting me hear this wonderful music as if for the first time again. Thank you for making these videos and thank you to all the participants for their time, their insights and their wide open expressions!!!!! It is life-changing for us probably even more than it is for them!

I love all of their perspectives and beautiful insights to this, one of my favorite songs from when I was a child to the present. I had to look up what Ustad meant and I absolutely love that description. It's such a passionate song and it really does evoke a journey in the minds eye and I agree with what was said here. It does seem spiritual in nature. All of the key phrases seem to be ascending, others ebb and flow and that again just seems to make me think of traveling through some exotic place and it all sounds so dramatic. Great song, I'm glad they liked it.

You _MUST_ show them "Panama" by Van Halen. They will be blown away by what they see and hear. 👌👌👌👌✌️

Wonderful reaction. This is my favorite song by them.❤ Always a great day with some Led for our heads.😂

Page, Plant, Jones and Jason Bonham need to see this!

Play the song,,, Nobody’s Fault But Mine. To these gentlemen, I love that song and Zeppelin

I love these gentlemen...❤

I'm glad you guys like this Western music.

I love these gentlemen's reactions and interpretations of this great masterpiece by Led Zeppelin.

Great timing. Im currently obsessed with Led Zeppelin

Nice to see the greatness of Led Zeppelin appreciated!

I love these reactions to western music, they have such awesome insight to the instruments & how they are played, to the lyrics & to the performance as a whole, thank you. ❤

Back in the 70s, we used to take a tape of this to stero stores to "test" rhe equipment 😅 turn it all the way up! Thanks ❤️ love y'all's reactions.

The one many of us have waited for :)

Another band that came later and is not so well known, but took a bit of the spiritual ideas of Page, was Kingston Wall in the early 1990's. Their song "Shine On Me" is something special. And "Could It Be So" feels like a spiritual journey, it ponders on the idea that what if time is not a straight line, what if humans have some kind of universal knowledge connection, what if there's more to the world than what we see and understand. The song even says "Ancient wisemen knew things that we can hardly dream about - - now we seek for that wisdom". The whole Kingston Wall II album is quite exciting and beautiful playing. They are a trio of guitar, drums and bass and all of them were experts on their instrument. There's some different level of emotion in the guitar playing I hear though, really strong passion. That searching for meaning, that yearning of something deeper. They also combined a bit of eastern musical ideas with western rock. Psychedelic rock as people call it. The movement I guess The Beatles started in the 60's. The guitarist and songwriter Petri Walli travelled and studied some spiritualism in India, and as a kid he skipped school to play guitar and learned all of Page, Hendrix and Clapton.

Kashmir is my favorite riff of all time

I think that Robert Plant had hidden depths in both his travels and music. His mother was a Romanichal, and I think that it is a natural part of his genetic heritage from her and her people. Robert Plant’s lyrics here are outstanding encompassing Robert Plant’s feelings. He sings them with passion. Jimmy Page’s music is wonderful too. The changes between the different rhythmic meters are genius. Mr. Abdul Aziz Rind Baloch always listens with his feelings and speaks from the heart.

I always felt like this song dragged... like you were slowly stumbling through a hot desert.

I'm so glad to see them really see Led Zeppelin as a major band. I learn so much by listening to these gentlemen talk about what they see and understand about the performers, how they interpret the actions and expressions of Robert Plant. This is a lesson about the world and my own culture.

I love watching these wonderful men, so far away, enjoy what ive loved for so long.....they absolutely get it!!!! The power of music is one of Gods biggest gift. I love that they love Zeppelin ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

Adnan, please share my greetings with sir Muharam and with Chacha Abdul, I care so much for them, my heart fills with joy when they appear in the videos. Suggestion: I'm from Brazil, I would LOVE to see them reacting to any of our songs, I personally recomend Elis Regina to start. Brazilian people loves to watch such reactions, it could also bring more people to the channel.

THANK YOU for bringing this song to the tribal peoples, I love their reactions!!! I learned a new word, Ustad and I love it. Now that they have heard two of their more heartfelt songs, I wonder how they may react to the darkness displayed by Led Zeppelin’s song, Dazed and Confused… the version from their first album has been scaring people for almost 60 years now. Thank you again, god bless!!!

Great choice to show the guys. The passion for the music here is unparalleled. Good, in depth comments!

This channel has a good mix of personalities, all with their own unique perspectives and inputs - but the elder Balochistani gentleman is my favorite!! Respect from Australia guys!!

charming gentlemen. i enjoyed their perspective of one of my favorite songs and bands.

Music brings people together. LED Zeppelin is the hottest band of all time. These gentlemen have rhythm.

Amazing! Would love to see some Beatles reaction in the future, maybe some rooftop.

Dude love your channel so hard, these guys are so legit! Been watching for years.

I love to see them vibing to one of my favourite songs of all time!!!

@22:50 for never having heard the song before, and not understanding the language Plant is singing in, he's very insightful! The song did its job!

This is one of the most considered reaction videos I’ve ever seen. Wisdom and perception in every comment

I can't get past the hats these guys are wearing. I LOVE the design!

I've read that _Achilles Last Stand_ is Jimmy Page's favorite song for its guitar work.

These gentlemen show how to open yourself to the world - to new and different music and culture. I applaud them for the way the react with heart and soul to new and different music and culture. May we all follow their example.

Awesome, I was hoping they would do this!

I love watching these 3 gentlemen…

I’m so happy to see you guys listening to the Led Zeppelin and Tool songs I suggested not long ago. Not sure if it was because of my email suggestion but I don’t care either way. I’m just happy for these guys to hear it.

The original title for the song was "Driving to Kashmir"

I love these - -watching then I often wish I had time to paint portraits of them

We need to start a fund to get these fellas a drum kit because they seem to be most impressed by great drummers in different videos they watch.

Fly high airship of Gods🤟🏻🔝

Just love 💕 these people so nice and love seeing other things and people .
