  • well you know ......for the first time pagey & jonsey composed some original stuff /withbonzos son

    ..... you never know if thats why page didnt putout hisolo thing in 2010

    I THINK plant is curious & is doing other artists music / not writing for now

    kinda charging his creative batteries/

    I know thats how he would go bout it . IT WILL HAPPEN, & if they are excited about what they create & its fun or amusing for them

    THEN they may release it to the world

  • "Before Rod became this.....other chap" Before Rod became a douche, you mean?

  • What is the deal with the 7 dislikes? Robert Plant is a great artist who's constantly growing. So if that means he works with other artist and tries new things, what's wrong with that.?

  • His face has grown longer!

  • "That was a great collaboration at the end there"

    Somehow I think the first clip shown was better.

  • He looks like a mighty lion

  • Robert you SHOULD of had 1,000 Grammy s......this WAS so un-fair to me, you ARE The Greatest!!!! xoxo

  • 1:30 -  "The Godfather of rock" - that pretty much says it all...

  • the thing i have an issue with...

    is when you make a band like...LED ZEPPELIN

    you cant go back after being the best band ever

    and make colabs with people who wont be remembered

    in 6 years..

    common.

  • 0:18 you can see him clearly thinking back fondly on the GREATEST BAND ON THE PLANET :)

  • 0:18 And before he did that of course he front the biggest band on the planet

    (The priceless Robert's smile :D:D:D)

  • Robert lives and breathes his music & gives it all back to us a thousand times over...He still looks as good as he did back in 1969, those beautiful eyes & that wonderful smile, he is a happy man.

  • You guys do not know what Rock is. I feel bad for bad anyone who doesn't own a Jonas brothers album :D

  • @nickflipSB3 is that a joke. ur sayin that the jonas brothers are more rock n roll than led zeppelin. ur a joke

  • @nickflipSB3 are you serious? listen to jimmy page's solos on black dog and stairway can jonas do that? listen to the immigrant song can jonas wail let alone sing like robert? can they play drums or bass like bonzo or JPJ? of course not they can't play drums and bass. robert is the 2nd greatest singer ever (honestly you can't compare to freddie mercury) and jimmy is the greatest guitarist ever and same with JPJ and bonzo on bass and drums. plus they never wined about bonzos drug abuse! ok?

  • @nickflipSB3 do you kno who created the new rock age? Led Zeppelin. thank them for rock and roll

  • @nickflipSB3 I have a strong feeling you're being sarcastic...if not then you are a fool beyong help because the Jonas brothers are not talented and are NOT rock in any sense...Led Zeppelin is the quintessential rock band...if you don't know that, you don't know anything

  • @nickflipSB3 you said that being sarcastic right..I'm stupid like that but really?

  • Man I miss the music of that time rock and metal have had some great bands to this day but the rap and bubble gum stuff has left me numb.

  • comfortably numb?

  • We deserve a Led Zeppelin tour.

  • Who cares if they don't tour again, at least we have Youtube. It would suck if it didn't exist.

    Also, to add to the "modern music compared to Zeppelin" argument, there are some great unsigned and unknown bands out there, the only reason that we don't hear about them is because the music world these days is smothered with attractive girl singers and 20-something baby-faced boy bands(No offence, thats just my opinion). Good bands are hard to find these days but are often worth looking for.

  • Jimi Hendrix Inspired them

  • The interviewer is right... he could ask anyone in the music world to do anything and they would... because he's a legend

  • I'm really happy Plant mentioned Paul Rodgers and Steve fuckin' MARRIOTT, Terry Reid :-)

    Oh, he knows who was the best

    and lols the comment about Rod the Mod...so true!

  • jeez!he still looks fucking cool!

  • whats the name of the song at 0:41?

  • 29 palms

  • thanks :)

  • "29 Palms", from his solo album Fate of Nations in 1993.

  • @kona2k7 29 palms

    perhaps 1 of his solo tunes that im most fond of along witheverything off of

    the PICTURES AT ELEVEN album and a few off of manic nurvanna

  • if it wasnt for the long bonde hair he would be looking very very old.

  • thats cuz he is old lol!!!!!!!

  • great interview! :)

  • flipping heck people, get over the fact that's he not i his twenties anymore, people age you donuts :P

  • Is that Robert Plant ? :O

    OMG !

  • well at least he looks beter then page

  • 4.34 I cracked up laughing XD

    Ah....such a style inspiration :D

  • At the starting when he says " Before he did that of corse he fronted the biggest band on the planet Led Zeppelin." When it shows Robert`s face it shows how truly proud he must have been and how amazing and extrodinary Led Zeppelin was in it`s time and how amazing it will be for the rest of time..!

  • @ZackandPete yea ,hes proud ,GOD love em !!!

  • only his smile reminds me the younger Robert

  • The godfather of rock !

  • Watching yourself performing like that 30 years ago must be breathtaking.

  • Coolest...

    Band...

    Ever...

  • nice pants robert :P

  • they are nice pants...i want them.

  • so do i. he does have great taste. :D

  • OK. Robert Plant is still to this day one of my Biggest heros. But When Robert released the album with Alison That was it for Zeppelin. PLant Said it him self if he didn't release the album with alison Zeppelin would have been planning a tour right after the o2 concert. Alison Killed Zeppelin. I support robert plant in this project but i do think that it was the end for Zeppelin

  • Robert Plant has himself said on several occasions that he didn't want to tour with Led Zeppelin again because it would not have been special. They would have been chasing the success of their reunion special and reliving their glory days instead of continuing to produce new material and have important new artistic experiences.

    Robert did the right thing. Don't even joke "Allison Killed Zeppelin" because if that ever caught on, it'd be like "Yoko Killed The Beatles" and ruin her reputation.

  • I found my respects of Robert

  • Non-fans writes

    led zeppelan

    led zeplin

    led zepelin

    led zepplin

    led zepelin

    It's like I wanna kill the people who's writing the band name wrong.

    Take a look at Robert's pants. Horrible :D

  • why should we take a look at robertS pants??

    i think the only thing we could find is his balls!

  • The color on his pants is ugly, you stupid! :D

  • @RandyRocketRaZa or what about when they say "led zeppelin hes great" lol

    or "the" led zeppelin

    BUT TRULY

    you need to relax, some people are from other places and =AND ,how could you "kill" another ZEP fan ?

  • Robert Johnson...another blues singer who REPORTEDLY sold his soul to satin.

  • Come on look at :57 theres no way this guy is a satanist

  • Don't get him confused with Robert Johnson...

  • What??!!?

  • Planty is a top bloke.......he's a Wolves fan!!!!

  • Robert Plant is a very talented musicion. It has gotten to the point where you can't JUST say he is a rock legend. You almost have to call him a music god.

  • how u tell the difference between a zep fan and a non-fan

    a fan pronounces them Led Zepplin

    a non-fan says Led Zep-p-pelin

  • actually matt11708 that is not completly true these days most rock and pop and rap singers dont write about anything good just a bunch of meaningless crap but hey anyone can write a good rap or pop song it just has to have good meaning zep wrote songs and they had meaning not like most of the songs today like i kissed a girl or lil wayne or soulja boy or (worst of all) the jonas brothers but you can tell robert put alot of thought into his song and into the type of music he makes

  • anyone who likes rap pop this man a rock god in one of the best bands in the world i dont think you will see him doing any sings with jay z or any overrated pop singer anytime soon i mean really look into better muisc i like all kinda of rock metal muisc its real muisc with meaning pop rap is not

  • not all rap is bad, just the mainstream kind. pop isnt really a genre of music, well it is and it isnt.

    alot of hip-hop artists from back in the early 70's and the 80's used rock records to come up with their beats, which would essentially make them rockers aswell and the hip-hop and rock genre kinda like distant cousins.

    anyway, alot of the rock and metal music from current bands lack meaning and soul in their songs too.

    not trying to hate, just trying to make you think.

  • i see what your saying old is good but crap that comes out now is just for teens and shit not trying to be rude but thats how it is now all about the money

  • yea alot of the music that comes out today is just a marketable "product", if it sells record companies put it on the shelves if not they dont. thats why i love music piracy because it fucks up their capitalist system.  But if i find out about an independent artist with originality i supposrt it 100% wether its buying the cd or going to their shows.

  • Muse are an exception. They are one of the best bands ever. SO are Led Zeppelin.

  • Muse are just so fucking boring, truly tedious, cliche after cliche

  • that is a poor statement you made,I am into led zep and admire them as individual musicians as much as the nxt man that knows what he is on about,but I am also well into rap,I am a turntablist as well as a guitarist.for you to say rap has no meaning is bullshit.mainsteam rap is whaked out,and i hope they never work with jay z cuz he is a cunt.but go back 2 the 70sthrough to mid 90s,underground rap is full of meaning.pop is also bullshit.but b4 u comment nxt time put your brain in gear u dumb fuk

  • i did not mean all rap pop never had meaning i am not getting into that crap but rap old had meaning i was talking about rap of the last 10 years sorry if i was saying rap like all rap cuz i did not mean it in that way

  • well at least you know wher you went wrong..hahahahaha,,only joking man..peace bron y aur stomp : )

  • plant didnt lookd very happy when the another guy said biggest band ever led zeppelin

  • wow.. you can read an article from wikipedia

  • ye hes already popular and stuff. but i mean he will be more popular with people who werent around in the seventies... n didnt see them tour or anythin

  • Why do people who weren't born in the 70's think that Robert Plant (and Zeppelin) is "obligated" to go out on tour to try and recreate what they did almost 40 years ago??!! He doesn't need the money nor the popularity. He's considered a rock God (and rightfully so). Zeppelin's music will be played long after we're all dead and gone.

  • Im only 17 and I dont think they need to do it and I love Zep. How could you honestly recreate something that happened 35 years ago?

    You couldnt unfortunately. See people like you judge.

  • I see it kind of differently.I dont think that people think they're "obligated' as you say but rather that the fans passion for the band to continue is so strong.

    Would fans really expect a recreation? I dont know, for me, I'd be happy to see new material written & toured on,with the sprinkling of classic oldies.

    In the end though it's like trying to teach a snake to walk because it wont ever happen like it did then & thats what makes it so special.RP is still making awesome music.

  • yo plant... what the hell.... why dont you want to go on tour.. you would be more popular than ever

  • Dear fried, hes already popular and will be popular even after mankind rules the stars.

    cheers from Brazil

  • bergadeer must be a politician! Unlike defender, Id rather see them unhappy but making me happy, by doing a tour!

  • lol, bay-yonce-ay

  • as much as i would love seeing led zeppelin live, i would rather (as a huge led zeppelin fan) see the members happy, if robert's happy doing what he's doing, then i am happy too

  • whats the song after whole lotta love?

  • 29 palms

  • To characterize Allison Krause as bluegrass is like saying MacBeth is a play about a guy that kills a bunch of people. It's basically true, but there's so much more to it. Krause's music celebrates all of American roots/folk music. She is very eclectic.

  • poes se ve muy genial!!!!

    led zeppelin forever!!!!

  • fuck bluegrass and get back to rock and roll !!!!!!

  • yea is crap led zeppelin will never sound the same without robert plant if robert dosent wants to get back with the grup this is it end of led zeppelin concert's the important thig is that we will allways rember them...he personaly said that he dosent wanna go round and round like stones

  • He needs to stop fucking around with country music and get his ass back to Led Zeppelin! For Christ's sake...

  • damn right!

  • yeah!! (country?!?! he's a blues/rock singer!!)

  • now drop this blue grass stuff and tour with Jimmy, John, and Jason....

  • I like roots American blues,but I can't get into blue grass.I agree on what you said about Plant.

  • I don't get any of the British wits and humor here but, I tell ya this: The presence of Robert Plant, the master of Rock himself speaks volume.

  • i heard zeppelin is gonna tour soon without robert plant. what kinda bullshit is that?! zeppelin NEEDS robert plant.

  • yes Zeppelin does need Robert Plant... but Jimmy Page is saying that they won't tour as Led Zeppelin and it would be a whole different band... I still think Robert should just tour with the rest of the band

  • @666Pottichen666 They're not using the name Led Zeppelin, though. I think that we'll see a full reunion soon. They've gotten offers with HUGE CASH and it seems everytime something like that comes up, Robert Plant hits the road and does Zeppelin songs for half his set. I just saw him tonight and half his set was Zeppelin material. I think it's coming.

  • @RHMETAL That thing fell through, didn't it? Or are you referring to Jason Bonham's tribute band that's touring now? 'Splain, please. :-)

  • @LedLass I'm refering to the group that Jimmy Page, John Paul Jones, and Jason Bonham were, at the time, putting together. Haven't heard anything else about it.

  • @666Pottichen666 amen y cant the ppl that orgainize that shit see that

  • zeppelin aint zeppelin without robert

  • @marmarandfriends Zeppelin ain't Zeppelin without Bonham :-) But Jimmy, JPJ, and Plant do a fantastic show make. I wish Robert would stop refusing to tour with the other two again...it's really, really frustrating for me.

  • 'the biggest band on the planet' - fucking a! I'm sick to death of the so-called 'consensus of opinion' that the Beatles are the biggest band in the world. Led Zeppelin was bigger! And better! The seventies happened, and they kicked the sixities ass. So take your hey jude bollocks and stick it up your liverpudlian arse holes, because you know as well as i know that your shadow is taller than your soul, and that you should try to be a rock and not to roll.

  • Why are people so bothered about how he looks? Who cares? Personally i believe that his heart is in the music, that's why he's obviously reserved about doing a Zeppelin tour because he doesn't want to destroy, for want of a better word, the memory of Zeppelin.......that was such a mystical and magical time for both the fans and band members and so to ruin that would be dreadful.

  • i hear you about it being so great about the time they were together. itd just be nice for like my generation to be able to see them. like zeppelin was broken up long before i was born

  • I think that the fact that he is debating with himself over whether or not to do a tour shows that he isn't in it for the money, If he/they were in it for the money, they'd be touring already everywhere and anywhere for no real reason.

  • F, IF, IF a tour is announced, or even a select number of gigs are announced now or in the future, i'll be estatic because they've taking this time to think about it and decided it was right. They've each got to be feeling the music and the magic in their hearts equally in order to come back together as Led Zeppelin.

  • That's just genuinely what I believe is the situation. The last thing I want is for Zeppelin to reform for a tour and they and the fans end up cringing over it. If they are each in a good place with regards to the music,performance etc then great....

    (wow that was a long comment! lol...i had to separate it into different sections. haha)

  • I can't believe some people nowadays would prefer the man doing Stairway to Heaven again and again and again instead of enjoying his flawlessly inspired work of recent years. Dreamland, Mighty Rearranger and Raising Sand are testament to his reputation. He's Robert Plant and not an ageing clown like Coverdale or Tyler or whoever. Some "fans" obviously don't get that today he's simply being true to the very attitude and integrity which have kept the Zeppelin hovering way above any competition.

  • radius,

    How can you mutter Deep Purple and Led Zeppelin in the same sentence!

  • wow, rock legend, sex drugs and rock and roll, now hes singing shitty music and blowing bubbles (3:58 in the video) when he could be doing one of the most legendary tours to ever hit the earth

  • Wow good for you timinator7. Did you google who john bonham was so you could sound somewhat musically educated? Because you don't.

    That was completely unnecessary and stupid of you to say that . I love both John and Robert. They are great talents, and Robert is still sexy as hell (in addition to a musical god)

  • john bonham has been dead for a pretty long time...

  • You Plant fans are right to defend him and also right that I should have just said nothing - but calm down with the insults, they're a little over the top*. I accept you and millions love the guy, I just never saw what the fuss was all about - guess it's that old Deep Purple vs Zeppelin thing going on.

    *the 7 11 one was funny :)

  • you`re just a big fucking asshole

  • Don't get me wrong - on a good day he is a good singer, or was. I just don't think he is anywhere near the legend he is made out to be. But then - who could be?

  • Who's cock have you been sucking.

  • What have you dont with your life radius95? Go back to serving at 7 11 and show a lil respect.

  • Demigod.

  • Forgive him, for he knows not what he says

  • Forgive radius95 for he knows not what he says.

  • you`re just a big fucking asshole

  • Nnnngh. I want to have his next baby.

  • haha "I'm not the Godfather! I'm the Brother-in-law!" haha nice

  • 6:15 "Rod Stewart was a fantastic singer in his early days, before he became...you know...this other chap..."

    LOL  Good save Robert! ;)

  • Robert Plant is a great guy, not to mention a fantastic singer, but what lame, shallow and common-place interviewers! The godfather of Rock! So what should Chuck Berry or Little Richard be called? The Methuseshael of Rock? These people are such idiots, too good of Plant to even speak to them!

  • That's probably true, but it just shows even more that he is an amazing guy cause he agreed TO talk to tham.

  • I agree. Absolutely.

  • CHOICE ABSOULTE CHOICE!!!!!

  • fuk only 1 grami robert u deserv al of them 4 ur sheer brilliance and ecclectic style best singa eva

  • Legend of Rock and Roll, talent, experience, legacy and utmost Brilliancy, that is Robert Plant and Zeppelin

  • i cant believe i missed this. i was gonna watch but i slept in!!

  • "The godfather of rock..."

    "I'm not the godfather! I'm the brother in law."

  • ...fuckin',GOLD...

  • y u giv me down phumbs thts wot plant sed i was jst thinkin how funny he is, led zep rock ...i wosnt puttin him down

  • you are great Robert.

  • This sound like a well duh! thing but he is such an amazibg singer, he has the voice of an angel.

  • "Throwing the telly out the window" LOL that was frickn funny. Ahhhhh Zeppelins hotel stories at the Hyatt House in LA. Plant is so cool, and such a class act. Zep world tour!

  • no actually it wasnt plant that threw a tv out the window at all..it was a hotel worker. led zep trashed the rooms up and when they were leaving a clerk at the hotel said 'man i wish i was a musican. iv always wanted to throw a tv out the window' and plant put $2k on the counter and said 'have one on us'

  • actually it was smashing a whole hotel room.

    they let him smash a hotel room.

  • ah cool ok. im assuming he threw a tv out the window in the process?

  • Beatles ....of their time.

    Led Zeppelin ...of their time.

    Both amazingly amazing.

    Alison amazing ...Union Station ....Jerry Douglas.

    All these people amazing ..enjoy.

  • Alison Krauss is a babe

  • led zeppelin is the greatest band ever ,all British bands r amazing

  • No, The Beatles first band ever!!

  • Actually... Led Zeppelin outsold the beatles albums (wikipedia search best selling albums) :P

  • Actually, the beatles have sold over 1 billion albums while LZ have sold about 300 million. Don't get me wrong, i don't prefer one over the other, because both were divers, but The Beatles did sell more albums. Led zeppelin sold out more crowds live though. That or their largest crowd topped the Beatles largset crowd. Don't pit Led Zeppelin against the Beatles though people. They are the 2 best bands ever, but neither is better than the other. Just praise them both for how awesome they are.

  • Oh I appologize, I didnt mean for it to seem like that. I ment led zeppelin 4 sold more then the best selling beatles album, thats all. I didnt even mean to praise one more then the other. I like the beatles and led zeppelin you see. I appologize if it seemed that way

  • shut up

  • Zeppelin were/are the greatest. Just thought I'd mention that the female interviewer (whose name I can't remember) is stunning and I would if she would.....

  • she's no alison krauss!!!!!!!

  • lol i like his green pants haha..

    i cant wait untill the end of this year because Zeppelin is more than likely to go on a world tour!

    my grandpa is always telling me of his times when he say Zeppelin in concert.. im just amazed by it..

    Jimmy wants to do a tour really badly too soo there is hope!

  • HE IS A FUCKING GOD! omg. i would do anything to see zeppelin live just once.

  • God damn if they come to chicago im getting god damn tickets. I will sell all my guitars for a ticket.

  • me too, if they play again its likely to be in england however, since its there home town.

    In my belief they will preform either in the O2 again or possibly in Birmingham, but hey...we never know we dont even know if they will ever do it again.

  • so will i . every single one of my 18. and they are the same models as pageys

  • His chin looks like the tail of a beaver... lol.

  • maybe rod stewart was good earlier but now hes crap

  • Robert, you´re by far the best!!,. So intelligent,wonderful, golden,and at the same time so humble and down to earth. Thanks for exist. My best wishes and congratulations!!!

  • Robert, you were the golden god of rock in the 70's and still are today. Please go on tour with Zeppelin and come to Toronto I would love to meet you. You truly fascinate me!

  • Nice one-thanks for posting this interview. Robert go on your Allison tour and tour with Led Zep...we miss ya in the USA!

  • its amazing how modest he is considering how amazing zepplin is and famous it is.
