Led Zeppelin - The Rain Song (live at Knebworth)

[rhino805999]

Not a beat missed, on point, professional. Just ripe for disaster with Bonzo's ever more erratic behavior. These guys are amazing. Magic.

[rhino805999]

These guys where at their peak at this moment. Bonzo was soon dead, and the dream was broken. "Into every life a little rain must fall".

[blooduptomyankles]

this song live is better than most sex.

[marusoako]

@bohs1984..... yeah, i agree with you. but it's not Jimmy who's out of tune. it's you that needs tuning. have your ears checked a.s.a.p.  wahahahaha!

[LizyPage]

I LOVE THESE GUYS

[benoitlambert100]

[bravo22ist]

robert plant...best frontman in the history of rock.hands down.they dont call him the golden haired god for nothing

[MrOwenistheman]

Poor Jimmy... It was hard for him towards the end of Zeppelin... ♥

[brandontylerkaiser]

It's funny, but everyone shuts up when they talk, that's the problem with these days, everyone is ignorant. Get the led out <3

[rossiscute35]

robert plant is the best of all time. I seen him in Memphis a couple of years ago. The man still has it. Did't care much for the music he is doing now but just to see him was AWESOME. Would love to see Jimmy again before time runs out. LED ZEPPELIN IS THE BEST.

[bustballz]

age has just ravished plant. he looks like a dried up prune with all those wrinkles now.

[rossiscute35]

@bustballz he is still the man

[MrOwenistheman]

Laughing my ass off to Rob's little speech in the beginning...

[horse69outside]

very moving. jimmy just holding it together, looks like he might be about to puke as it comes to an end. epic.

[pinkfloydspink]

[shredmaster100]

ive got this whole concert on dvd had to get it from switzerland as its not on sale in the uk but it is epic and 3 hours long sound quality is great u get either stereo or 5.1 sound on the dvd and picture quality is good considering how old it is

[shredmaster100]

page wasted as usual legend

[zed0469]

I hate the soundtrack to TSRTS it sounds tired, this sounds stoned, big difference.

[victorsoupinoli]

Can not explain, the best!

[kellytrainor1]

Brings back great memories. Beautiful and a creative love song.

[tattoofthesun]

i dunno guys i'm lovin this version.

[bushokjew00t]

@tattoofthesun Same here like the little tick jimmy has in the middle section like he's almost falling down and all the sudden he retakes himself and bam! Makes this song the whole it is!

[Castingcrowns4him]

@tattoofthesun it's not that bad as people think it is

[sayyeahnow]

Robert's talking like Cornholio.

[bohs1984]

Favorite Zep tune. but this version kinda sucks. Guitar sounds out of tune, keys come in kinda scetchy. Not very well mixed. The version from Song Remains is a much smother take in my opinion.

[robimiglio]

@bohs1984 because this is a bootleg AND because in 1973 they played much better than this ;)

[boo66]

@robimiglio

And because the 'Song Remains the same' was mostly re-recorded back in the studio in England.

[PBANDSNOW]

@bohs1984 The Song Remains The Same movie was over dubbed in studio for 3 years after the original MSG show, there's almost no real live playing on the movie, thats why it sounds so much better.

[AZEIDJSKSQMM]

@PBANDSNOW No over dubbeed, the music is 100 % natural, all songs are a mix of each night, yes ;).

[PBANDSNOW]

@AZEIDJSKSQMM No, the song remains the same took two years of overdubbing to sound as good as it did.

Do your homework before you make those kind of comments.

[AZEIDJSKSQMM]

@PBANDSNOW On the dvd remastered no, just the sound is better, the original cd is natural, no overdubbing, read the garden tapes even to talk, thanks.

[PBANDSNOW]

@AZEIDJSKSQMM I have. Do yourself a favour and watch the movie closely. During the last minute of the Rain Song, the intro to Since Ive Been Loving You, etc. Page fingers aren't even on the fret board for parts of it yet you can still hear it.

All members of Zeppelin, Peter Grant, and the movie crew worked on this movie for 3 years to make it what it is, so seriously, go do your homework.

[AZEIDJSKSQMM]

@PBANDSNOW This is normal because the camera shots are totally anarchic, very few images are consistent in the songs ...

[IRISHLUCK15]

@bohs1984 look at Jimmy hes higher than a kyte still awesome



[NickTann]

@bohs1984 The guitar doesn't sound out of tune to me...

[RealityPoint]

@bohs1984 Dude. There is nothing, at all, out of tune. No offense but you are obviously not a guitar player. What the hell are you even talking about, this is a live recording, are you saying the house mix is not very good? You might very well be slightly out of your mind :)

[alantew]

@bohs1984 Yes this gig was a tragedy - i know because i was there at Knebworth - The last ever gig in England from John Bonham before he died. and Jimmy Page at the time was totally off his face on heroin - absolute tragedy really - check out the London O2 gig - now that is reaaaaalllllly goood

[myfriendelvis]

@bohs1984 Everything from Song Remains the Same was heavily overdubbed. that is why is sounds so good. this here is actually probably pretty accurate as to how it was played live.

[packeropie]

I want this song played at my wedding, the birth of all of my children, at all of their weddings, and then at my funeral, without question. 

[packeropie]

hahaha robert plant's goofin around in the beginning is really funny.

[akatsukiamp]

why doesn't jimmy ever use the 12 string part for the rain song? i think it would sound really cool

[ozbiggles]

Want to see a better version by the Australian "Zep Boys" Get knocked out here: With the full 88 pce MSO band behind them....

myspace.com/video/zepboys/rain­-song/49781920

[tony112194]

and jimmy wanted to study germs

[gjrock70]

Watch Page play Rain Song on the MTV gig in 94 with Plant on their reunion and tell me who could play those licks like he did.

[neff818]

@brether234 wow congratulations. You are now my most hated piece of shit fuck of a person to walk this planet, i hope you die a slow painful death :)

[SuperDiamondDogs]

Ah, don't you love it when a love song that's freaking awesome makes grown men fight about Jimmy and how vulgar each other's comebacks are. Do that some other place, I have a song to listen to...

[mechqz]

dudes... chill out and enjoy the music. Seriously...

[Luukeeeehh]

im so goddamn high

[sambassmanstoner]

Yeah, but the drugs made jimmy play like garbage.

[Luukeeeehh]

almost everybody in that time, who where big and awesome used drugs :P

[championofhardrock]

i bet jimmy is doin some heroine back stage at the begin.

[yo3g]

who's on the hammond?

[Voughtrazer]

@yo3g John Paul Jones if i'm not mistaken.

[Alishhh4]

@yo3g John Paul Jones played all keyboard/organ as well as bass guitar.

[hcoluzzi]

this vid is making me feel stoned!

[wildcardwrecking]

And I know, I love you so...

Awesome, greatest band ever assembled

[tartinovich9]

jimmy so tourmented...

[angelcakebby24]

did jimmy do drugs during the 60's and 70's

[robimiglio]

@angelcakebby24 Not during the 60s (maybe he used to get a little higher sometimes, but just with ligh drugs). He began to have problems with heroin around 1975, and he became drug addicted. After Led Zeppelin, as far as I know, he became also an alcoholist. I have seen several interviews in the period of Walking Into Clarksdale (90s) in which he clearly wasn't ok and he says that he doesn't remember much about the 80s. Right now he's a kind person and definitely in good health.

[brether234]

@robimiglio

hes an old creep who wont allow zepplin songs in rock band, fuck him

[prooflootkoo]

@brether234 *correction* he's a dignified man that won't sell out to make few bucks and gain ignorant fans that can't even spell his band's name properly.

[TatsuArekku]

@brether234 uh, actually, (while jimmy page is not much a fan of music games like guitar hero and rock band), a more significant reason there hasn't been any led zeppelin songs in a music game is that a considerable amount of led zeppelin's master tapes are currently missing or in no condition to be physically tampered with. the master tapes are necessary for guitar hero and rock band, and thus no led zeppelin music games. try a bit more research next time.

[brether234]

@TatsuArekku you obviously have no idea what your talking about. they released an entire game with live recordings they dont NEED the master recordings. and you should do some research on your golden boy jimmy. he numerous sexual relations with 12-14 year old girls. idk what the laws were back then but now addays girls that age don't have consent, making that rape. congratulations your idols a rapist.

[fobfan35]

@brether234 fuck u. if ur a christian u shud noe ur mary was probably 13 years old while joseph was most likely in his 40s, so go fuck off

[fobfan35]

@brether234 u fucking cock sucker

[brether234]

@fobfan35

you fucking trailer garbarge. go fuck your sister while she's still twelve and doesn't know she's being raped, then you can be just like good ol' jimmy

[fobfan35]

@brether234 really that's interesting, instead of asking me why i called you a cocksucker u pulled that out, but it seems your used to random tirades, because your subject went from guitar hero to slandering page, go stick your tongue in your mothers asshole and then stick ur cock in her dirty anus and make her lick the shit off your dick, you fucking low life small penis motherfucker, Satan deepthroats your mom in hell.

[brether234]

@fobfan35 i dont give a fuck why you called me it, if your willing to stand and defend a rapist then i already know what kind of person you are. oh and you call what i said a "random tirade", you went off like a middle schooler who heard enough curse words from there hillbilly abusive father to make a dirty sentence. i feel sorry for you

[SuperDiamondDogs]

@brether234 about the game w/ live recordings, that's AC/DC, not Led Zeppelin.

[brether234]

@SuperDiamondDogs so fucking what faggot?

[SuperDiamondDogs]

@brether234 and so for correcting, me you're gonna call me a faggot. You sir, are a jackass.

[brether234]

@SuperDiamondDogs no i can just smell a faggot, and you sir and a FAGGOT

[dazerbrah]

@robimiglio

jimmy did drugs in the 60s. thats a fact. to say jimmy page didnt do drugs in the 60s is an insult, jimmy said something like "drugs were a part of the whole thing" talking about zeppelin. plus you think the yardbirds were straight shooters? come on...

[robimiglio]

@dazerbrah I meant that he just didn't use heavy drugs, because he began to do that in the 70s. Plant said it several times, and Jimmy too. I said "He began to have problems with heroin around 1975, and he became drug addicted" and talking about the 60s "he used to get a little higher sometimes". I didn't say he was perfect, and neither a health fanatic. You can notice a progressive abjection: at the beginning, I don't think he was drug addicted. However, I wasn't there (but you weren't too).

[dazerbrah]

@robimiglio

i didnt know acid was a light drug?

[robimiglio]

@dazerbrah I'm talking about HEROIN problems. You know, I'm not a drug-expert, I don't have a drug chart, I wasn't there when Jimmy used acid or whatever, and moreover I don't understand why you're so aggressive toward me. We are saying the same thing. Jimmy HAD problems with drugs. That's the main question. I don't consider myself the biggest Zep expert in history, I don't care about this discussion, and moreover I uploaded this vid, so please choose someone else to attack to fill your time.

[dazerbrah]

@robimiglio

it seems to be you are very interested in this discussion, if not you would have not replied. but ill give you your wish and leave you alone. and yes now ill go find another youtuber to attack? anyways peace out and thanks for the upload:)

[666prep]

@robimiglio ti ringrazio per aver postato dei video dei led zeppelin, e sei stata molto precisa nelle tue descrizioni, tuttavia.... jimmy page è proprio la fotocopia del drogato, è il classico tossico, si faceva le pere. e non solo. è talmente chiaro....

[robimiglio]

@666prep Ciao =) vorrei sapere quando mai ho detto il contrario!

[RealityPoint]

@robimiglio Quite a heroin problem indeed. Jimmy was junked out for many many years.

[JohnAllanification]

@RealityPoint jeeze,zep did drug's. yr so cool fr sayn that. wow man,so fukn original of ya'

[RealityPoint]

@JohnAllanification Jeeez, follow the discussion you idiot, so we don't have to say the same thing about you asshole. Might want to take your hand off your dick too when you type, maybe you can spell.

[JohnAllanification]

@RealityPoint

what's the point of saying that Jimmy Page had a problem w/heroin ? we all know that he had the habit - this isn't new's anymore. mmm .. love my hand on my dick,i'll give you that one for sure.

[RealityPoint]

@JohnAllanification What's the point of saying that Jimmy Page was a kick ass guitarist, we all know he was. It's not news to anyone. Actually dude, whatever generation you are in, I don't know, nor do I give a fuck. However, most young people who just got into Zep have no clue about Jimmy's previous issue or anyone elses for that matter.

[Voughtrazer]

Jimmy Its fucking high xD

[tartinovich9]

jimmy is super stoned...and skinny ..

[nejifan365]

one day i'll feel this way about someone

[RockerForLife74]

Plant could talk and fuck around for the duration of the entire show and no one would get bored.

[asassinhunter]

the tuning he uses here is like, a minor 3rd over the studio version. i tuned my guitar to this and it snapped my g and b strings

[Stoneyridger]

@asassinhunter Yeah, they always played the tune in A major live, but the studio version is in G major. I don't play guitar, but I think it has something to do with Jiimmy's setup live versus the studio recording.

[livezeppelin]

@Stoneyridger right, studio tunings is DGCGCD, live it was EADADE, much easier to change from standard, you needed to tune 2 strings differently versus all of them. it also produced a much nicer brighter tone with the electric guitar.

[henrytdsimmons]

Are yee awright jimmey!!

[mattyboyovadanet]

nice accent robert! LOL

[zzy66613]

good good good!

[geraldhdez]

baeutiful song!!!! led zeppelin 4ever!!!!

[Sub1ime512]

[vonkiser]

@Sub1ime512 no shit...maybe should have rehearsed a bit b4 hand? ah shit he's Jimmy Page man, he pulled it off

[henrytdsimmons]

Love the rain song!

[Alex4uall]

@henrytdsimmons We all love the rain song!
