I love both Foo Fighters and Led Zeppelin - even though, in all honesty, I'm not that fond of Stairway to Heaven. I actually prefer Over the Hills and Far Away by Zep - and, if the Foos decided to poke fun at *that* song, I wouldn't feel offended. They're just playing around, and Dave Grohl was also making a point of why no one else should cover Stairway.
Anyway, some of you people need to lighten up. Zep and the Foos *both* rock!!
grohl was really funny in this vid. what a sport he is; i guess playing like this was his way of saying that there is only one led zeppelin. drums were really good, though.
But that was last year, I came back to it a while ago and said "wtf Grohl... Good job." his message behind this was that no one can play Led Zeppelin like Led Zeppelin. ESPECIALLY Stairway to Heaven. For those who think Grohls just making fun of Zeppelin look up a vid called Rock N Roll - Foo Fighters & Led Zeppelin, Grohl obviously loves Zeppelin I mean come on.
Grohl has said numerous times that Led has been one of his most loved bands and inspirations. He has a tattoo that represents the drummer from Zeppelin, Bonham. So no. Not for money, and he loves Zep.
they are trying to make funny man, just that not to play the song like jimy page and company, they can do, if u are calling SHIT to nirvana you are pretty stupid man
for the people who find this crap and think they ruined the song they played it lik that on purpose to show noone can play it but led zeppelin and that noone should try covering it.
i got the feeling that he legitly messed up and played it off like he meant to but then i think of how goofy of a guy he is in general and how he opened for the actual led zeppelin (or whats left of them). He was most likely just trying to have a good time and say that he is not even close to how good led zeppelin is.
You completely missed the point of my comment, Hahahaha. Read it a couple more times. Led Zeppelin is great, but stairway to heaven has been overplayed so much that it's a fucking joke.
You do realize that the point of them covering it was to mock people who actually cover it (and terribly) and to try to keep people from actually covering it because it is a legendary song, right?
if he was more serious, could of knocked out the park....if he gonna do it do it right , come correct...people can say what they want hands down one of the greatest songs ever made
What people might not realize is that Stairway to Heaven was the most overplayed song ever for a while. It's become somewhat of a joke, unless it's actually played by led zeppelin.
primero si respeta grandisimo cabron, lo q pasa es q grohl le dio su toque a la cancion xq aparte de musico el carajo da risa ¬¬" y cobain no se suicido por dave grohl IGNORANTE, informate y luego reprocha!! guevon!
What a mother fucker! SHit! One of the biggest song what ever writing in the word! How can you that as bad as I never heard. What can say JImmy Page this production? Oh my godness! you shit!
Not that great to tell you the truth i think people should stick the original instead of changing cause it never has the same feeling and emphasis of the truly great song by led zepplin.
