Zakk Wylde - Stairway to Heaven

[rohhl]

I DON'T KNOW HOW I'M NOT CRY IN SOLO!!!!! IT'S AWESOME.

[swanclipper]

LOL at the plant tryhard, specially at that legendary bridge/verse

[selectjed1]

this is horrible besides the drums

[DementalBehavior]

Its obviously him on the guitar

no one does vibrato as Zakk *-*

[HitMock]

240p we meet again...

[unsca]

dont is Zakk

fuck you, stupid

[woutkonings]

@unsca He does actually play the guitar

[MetalGuy5150]

That's Zakk fucking Wylde singing? Must have been when he was younger.

[jacobwalters85]

@MetalGuy5150 No, that's Lou Gramm from Foreigner.

[S0L0Ri0T]

@MetalGuy5150 You really need to learn how to read the description of a video before making incorrect assumptions... It's not hard and takes all of about 3 seconds. I don't mean this in a hostile or derogatory way. I just don't understand how so many YouTube users fail to read a simple sentence or two while the video is starting up...

[maddie11149]

Great cd. James Kottak of the Scorpions on drums. He kills it. Does Bonzo proud.

[axemanbiggz]

it don't matter who the hell you are, nothing NOTHING! can beat the original!!!!!! \m/

[suicidesilence7893]

so dissapointing. no one can match plants vocal power!



[shanecarroll92]

a really good cover but i personally think da song should not be touch and just leave it to da origional

[tsotsc]

@shanecarroll92 i took what you said into consideration, but you say "da", which makes you seem like a stupid FUCK, lol :D, <3

[mikeawilson55]

@75SilentWarrior the point of a cover is to play the same thing and make it soud different yet still the same. It doesnt have to be played like JP did it to be good

[pepeputalas]

54 deaf people

[funofsk8ing]

It certainly is Zakk's tone and vibrato, can't see why people don't think it's him

[MetalxXxManxXx666]

thumbs up if think Jimmy Paige shit his pants hearing Zakk play that solo

[75SilentWarrior]

@MetalxXxManxXx666 One thing you forgot, Jimmy Page wrote that solo. Not to mention, he plays it better.

[MetalxXxManxXx666]

@75SilentWarrior exactly he wrote it so thats why he wud shit his pants cuz zakk tore it up

[btriona92]

@MetalxXxManxXx666 notce the zero thumbs up

[AC1991DC]

I like zakk, but I'm almost afraid to click play in fear that it's gonna be all pinch harmonics. That's his style, I respect that and it's cool. But it wouldn't go very good with stairway.

[XoZakkMoauroX]

I'M A HUGE ZAKK WYLDE FAN. I'M 100% SURE THIS IS NOT ZAKK.

[vft98]

@XoZakkMoauroX no one ever reads the description lol. this was done by a few people. zakk being the guitar. (maybe he wasnt the only one but he deff did the guitar solo)

[hedbangr141]

@XoZakkMoauroX Zakk did the guitar but not the vocals. Read the description.

[jamestheepicfan111]

@XoZakkMoauroX oh my god.. did you really know that? everyone knows it aint zakk its Lou Gramm that sings you kno'

[jacobwalters85]

@XoZakkMoauroX If you listen to the solo in this and think that it is anyone but Zakk Wylde, then you are not the huge fan that you claim to be.

[valerieash]

@XoZakkMoauroX dude just go to amazon and type in stairway to heaven tribute and it will show you who played on this album and it was zakk who played this.

[mrplanetgecko]

anyone who thinks this aint zakk is either death or aint listened to any of his stuff before about 95

[justjames95]

Zakk je toliko svestran da je to cudo!

Bravo majstore, Srbija te voli! :D

[harleywarbird]

This is better in full screen! seriously, Its a good track!

[73sonalm]

i clicked just to hear the solo :DD

[PatiG001]

6:46 it has to be ZAkk :D

no one does that vibrato like him

[phoebusphrixus]

This really doesn't sound like Zakk

[Ghettobird1990]

@phoebusphrixus I'd suggest you to listen to all of zakks guitar solo's on every song, and then listen to this one. and then tell me again that this ain't zakk.

[moonshadowdream]

Am I the only listener of rock, and passionate guitar (as guitarist, I'm just an amateur) who doesn't like, Zakk Wilde's version, and prefer the original version of Led Zeppelin?

I have only one request. Please tell me if I wrote correctly and if I've phrased correctly!

[artnardone]

I know Ronnie James DIO would Rock it!

[seetheranmick]

its not zakk

[Ghettobird1990]

@seetheranmick You are obviously not a Zakk fan. Have you even listened to the guitar solo?

that's definatly zakk's tone and playstyle. you kids a stupid these days.

[AttilaBlasphemer]

Any good cover of this song or the song itself ALWAYS gives me goosebumps, this song is so much, it's inspiration, it's beauty in the form of sound, it's just one of the most amazing songs ever written, and zakk did it so well... I cant even believe thats his voice!!!!

[TheRainbowhunter]

hahahahahahaha ... this is one of the best rock song but this version - piece of shit!

[lucifer6666ification]

this version is of black label society



[goranification]

Who the hell sing it!!!?

[heryscemo]

@goranification Lou Gramm ;)

[goranification]

Who sings? Sebastian? They both should make a band :D

[Tombinater]

I prefer the production of this song more than the original but no one can do better than Robert Plant; if he sung on this version it'd be better than the original. Just my two cents.

[b0njov1]

what a great rendition

[MIKEWIZOWSKI1234]

Who sings this?

[felphero]

49 people don't like this video

...

can you give me a million thumbs up for that?

[TheDancingSaxophone]

@felphero No. Because anyone could have made that comment. A comment like that doesn't deserve 'a million thumbs up's.

[Themotleycrue]

@felphero I will, because I appreciate your sarcasm.  :)

[ajllanez]

I love this cover!.... just amazing

[ilikechickenwings100]

Not a big Zakk fan, and was expecting pinch harmonic hell... Was wrong. Tasteful cover, very well done. 

[mestre82]

Who's the rest of the band besides zakk?

[DullboyOfTheNightfal]

yeap for those who have doubts theres noone that can play this badass riffs like zakk!!!!!!

[Zepfan321]

Wow thats another good lineup

[Mrflywhiteguy1]

Zakk ROCKS!!!!!!!!!

[bubbalooski911]

if you don't like this version go / wrists and stfu

[MrDrewster15]

mmm sexy

[luckymouse1971]

The lead singer is Lou Gramm, the former lead singer of Foreigner. The band includes, Lou Gramm lead singer, Zakk Wylde lead guitar, Nick Catanese(Black Label Society) rhythm guitar, Jeff Pilson(Dokken) Bass, and Jason Bonham Drums. This is from the album....A Led Zepplin Tribute: Stairway to Heaven(1997).

[swanclipper]

@luckymouse1971

hangon, bonhams kid did drums for bls? or just for this cover...  cos he did FKN AWESOME at O2

[luckymouse1971]

@swanclipper Jason Bonham and Zakk Wylde played together on three songs on the tribute album. "Goin to California, Good Times Bad Times and the Stairway To Heaven". But, Bonham has never been in BLS. This was mainly for the tribute album only.

[ystme]

[miltonbra]

chills in the solo and after

[mirzafofy]

Definately not as good as the zepplin version but still pretty good and i think the vocalist is lou gramm from foreginer.

[spiderock1]

1:39 Melodyne rulez

[mestre82]

Who's singing ?

[camerowanna69]

@mestre82 I believe it is Sebastian Bach

[tlridner]

i like this better than the original by led zeppelin awesome!!!! way to go zakk!!

[TheBandFan1]

This song is good.But yer smoking crack nothing better then orig

[BrickTamland714]

Man, imagine Zakk with Robert Plant. That would be epic.

[brucejenkins71]

kick ass cover of this song but i didnt really expect anything less from zakk, I love page's lead in this song. page's version is a fuckin masterpiece so I am glad zakk didnt try to change it too much. but then again Zakk is all about paying respect where respect is due, so even though Zakk could've ripped all over the top of that rythym he knew that what Jimmy Page did was nothing short of a fucking MASTERPIECE and it would just be DISRESPECTFUL to change that lead.

[RevZeppelin]

That aint Zakk singing : (

[Wolverfragdude907]

actually thats Jimmy Page playing guitar AND singing...shocker right?

[Arcticwolfette]

I would like my son to learn how to play guitar like Zakk

[MrGuitarrica]

@Arcticwolfette Don't worry. He will :)

Check out my covers. =) people say that they are good I think the opposite. =)

Peace

[candy42069able]

nice

[dare4distance69]

damn it i wish zakk sang this -___-

[FadeToBlack888]

generally a very uninspiring cover lacking in originality or ambition but the solo was NAILED

[JohnnyCakesDoja]

Nothing against Page, but I prefer this version. Just my personal taste.

[theflyingdutchmanxD]

AWWWW i wanted to see the black screen in HD

[supersimon44]

@theflyingdutchmanxD that made me piss myself laughing!

[ACDCgunslinger]

Good Cover, as for those saying Zakks solo isnt Jimmys, No its not, its got a taste of Zakk in it,which is a good thing, if your gonna cover it note for note, why bother, no fun in that.

I say its a good cover, just Lou falls down a bit in the high parts, but cant be helped Very few can sing like Plant lol, just my 2 cents

[McGivvern]

(*song)

[McGivvern]

yep, definitely Foreigner. No Zakk in this aong. Shame on you, ToNyMontAnA91boss

[dh0420]

thats not zakk- this is Foreigner cover of stairway

[fledis]

nott zakk wylde singing!

[kthcsh]

now this is my kinda cover. stay true to the song as it was written. inevitably you're going to put your own style to it but don't kill it. Zakk is great!

[Cinek17omg]

powerrrrrrr

[evertonmadrugaful]

49 with me. Stairway to Heaven is so sacred that any cover, has 100% chance of going wrong. this because I've heard some motherfuckers, say that this singer is better than Plant .... this is death for me ..

[PAULD1887]

this is not zakk wylde

[PAULD1887]

this is not zakk wylde

[veryveryveryangry]

nothing to say about the instrumental.

But the voice is so fucking weak!

[mtmanning67]

every guitar at guitar world has a sign on it.... No "Stairway to Heaven"...I agree

[ytubehodges]

Duh. the Vid description only tells u that right away. Of course hes not singing this.

[lionessofariel]

Zakk Wylde IS NOT singing this!!!

[rvires32]

lets see those 45 pple do better this is great

[daffaras]

that is zakks voice???

[predator5723]

@daffaras no

[Beatles4Life1000]

everyone preferes the last one, thats fine, but think about it, zakk wasn't intending on insulting zeppelin he was appreciating them, and considering them better than him, so whats the fuss about?

[twasmuthguitarplayer]

Its only because he's covering the song that is regarded as the greatest ever that people dislike it, and you always get some twat who compares it to the original and just doesnt understand the point of covers. It was never gonna beat the way Jimmy Page played this song but its still brilliant.

[ard542]

Is there suposed to a video with this song? I'm not showing any.

[leniv3c3]

@ard542 no just black screen xDDD

[SuperVlad1995]

joder es igual esta version que la otra, impresionante zakk

[jochavez81]

 sounds like the original... except for the last lead part

[highonfire20]

whos singing???

[jusenfeida]

@highonfire20 Lou gramm

[led96zeppelin]

45 fuckers don't like zakk's version (the original is better, but this rocks)

[BugLegss]

@led96zeppelin /agreed, i like zakk butt he should stay in his own.

[TMetalFromHell]

@led96zeppelin really that 45 of them dont like it? thats why they disliked lol

[led96zeppelin]

@TMetalFromHell boooooooo

[TMetalFromHell]

@led96zeppelin ?

[led96zeppelin]

@TMetalFromHell your sarcasm

[theSodMonster]

@led96zeppelin do be honest it sounds EXACTLY (and i'm a complete ZEPP HEAD) like the original recording on the opening, so hats off to him.

[led96zeppelin]

@theSodMonster but it's not "EXACTLY" like the original on th e I said that this rocks....

[shargagoth]

@led96zeppelin

U must respect their point of vues ^^

[led96zeppelin]

@shargagoth I respect them, they're fuckers, but I respect them xD

[uanfema1996]

@led96zeppelin 49 suckers

[abrighterview]

I remember this cover. It's really weird, almost identical to the original until the solo which is definitely Zakk. I'd rather it wasn't so similar to be honest, but a good song is a good song.

[MrPedroalok]

Man, Zakk's vibrato it's the most perfect vibrato in the world!

[rivermoonrise]

@MrPedroalok Too bad it's not him singing this song. Not trying to be a jerk, but this is Lou Gramm from Foreigner.

[kthcsh]

@rivermoonrise i can't speak for the other guy but.. i think he meant vibrato on guitar. that was what i thought when i read comment. Zakk is known for that. Is this Lou Gramm? great vocal too.

[rivermoonrise]

@kthcsh Maybe so. So many people are talking about how great he sings this song, though, and it's not him singing. Just trying to clear that one up.

[LosLurvos]

@MrPedroalok how the hell is something most perfect, uh

[pandaram007]

@LosLurvos  maybe something like a next level of perfection^^

[vasko195]

@MrPedroalok this is not Zakk's voice

[MrPedroalok]

@vasko195 So!?

[MrPedroalok]

@vasko195 It's Lou Gramm Singing!

[vasko195]

@MrPedroalok Sorry I told that you were talking for the vibrato of the vocal and you said Zakk Wylde.Sorry my mistake

[yossarianXful]

who sings this?its not zakk?!

[MrPedroalok]

@yossarianXful read the discription!

[MrPedroalok]

@yossarianXful ...and it's Lou Gramm

[nala2425]

Zakk is the man.. Nothing or no one can change that... Only he could come that close 2 sounding as good as the original............ WE LOVE U ZAKK......

[motocrazy92]

singing isnt too great... guitar is effing perfect tho

[evertonmadrugaful]

/watch?v=dmKeIlJq4gM&feature=l­ist_related&playnext=1&list=ML­GxdCwVVULXcYMYlXXmowKV7PEpAEDm­i4

Who is better ?

Led Zeppelin win !!!1!

Zakk is nice cover.

[evertonmadrugaful]

respect to Robert Plant, Lou Gramm can not reach high tones. Lou Gramm is very refined, but Robert Plant hits high notes and treble at the same time. Respect the best voice of Rock N 'Roll ... also Page, guitarist epic.

New generation, respect the foundation of Rock N Roll.

Shut up.

[Iamajanitor01]

@evertonmadrugaful correction: Robert Plant "used to" hit high notes and treble at the same time. Not any more. Too bad though. He was the best man.

Now, wrt ZW, that live version of "machine gun man" was as good an acoustic only rock song as I have ever heard. He sings and plays awesome on that tune and it was just him live. Really talented. Too bad the words aren't very good. That could have been a super classic song.

[PandasGoRawrr]

I think Nick is singing

[worldsmosthated2006]

Zakk isn't singing, but it isn't Robert Plant either. IDK who is singing lead vocals. But Zakk IS playing Lead Guitar.

[17ownage]

this is a great song, he keeps it pretty much the same because nothing needs to be changed i mean its stairway to heaven, if im gonna listen to stairway to heaven, i wanna listen to zepplin, but if i would HAVE to listen to a cover this one is probs it.

[daryl428]

Lou Gramm of Foreigner they also teamed up for Black Dog and Kashmir

Zakk sings on 2 songs from this CD Good Times Bad Times and Going To California released Dec 1997

[thejigisup1]

no way thats Zakk

[simaogomes]

@thejigisup1 Zakk only plays the guitar, read the description.

I dont know who is singing.

[MrBalfazaar]

Guys, I know most of you don't realize this, but Zakk is a guitarist just as much as anyone is, and he, just like everyone else, enjoys other music than just what he plays. I don't know any guitarist that takes a song he likes and plays it -exactly- like the original version, because that's boring. If you're just going to do the same thing, why bother making a cover at all?

[TADASHISEISEI]

the guitar is identic, perfect

[okjige]

who is the singer?

[TADASHISEISEI]

@okjige maybe Ozzy Osbourne

[SheaBearden]

@TADASHISEISEI ....i think it's actually the singer from Foreigner....sounds like him....too gritty to be Ozzy

[thatsphreshish]

deffinately Zakk. Original is great but this one is aswell. im not choosing

[deathnale]

THATS NOT ZAKK SINGING HE MAY BE PLAYING GUITAR

[dellabona69]

@deathnale his not even playind here

[trailerparkboys18]

really well done cover

[DrunKid]

i know its much easier to improve a song than to write it from nothing

but god damn zakk aced it

[HATESLIPKNOTHATERS]

whos singin????the vid is named :Zakk Wylde-Stairway to heaven xD

[jonathanatack]

who is singing?



[aiyakmakmah]

Amazingly great cover! Beautiful zakk:)

[Rushguitarist1]

WTF! No one can play Stairway but Jimmy Page

[olymary60]

@Rushguitarist1

fag

[Rushguitarist1]

@olymary60 Yeaah sure think what you think. Your reflecting yourself when you call people that

[TheAppieJj]

@Rushguitarist1 i understand what u mean. this is just zakk wylde's stab at it, relax

[Rushguitarist1]

@TheAppieJj I'm just saying the solo sounds like shit to me. No originalness. I'm not saying it's bad. Apples and oranges man

[ONLYUSEmeBLADEz1]

@Rushguitarist1 How is saying its shit not saying its bad????

[Rushguitarist1]

@ONLYUSEmeBLADEz1 The solo is not right the rest of it's good

[ONLYUSEmeBLADEz1]

@Rushguitarist1 Yeah but if had played it exactly the same it wouldnt be worth listening to. He made it original

[Rushguitarist1]

@ONLYUSEmeBLADEz1 i don't thinks it's original. just leave me alone it's not suppose to be original it's a cover



[ONLYUSEmeBLADEz1]

@Rushguitarist1 Ha ha i would accept that if it werent a famous person doing the cover but Zakk has to keep up appearances and the wah pedal and pinch harmonics.

[fisherman10101]

how to take a great song and make it into an 80s sounding cock rock ballad

[Surewinner93]

People need to stop going sick at the fact that its not Led Zeppelin, it's a cover. People don't expect to be as good as the original, hoverever its a good COVER

[mafiosino]

This lacked the true soul of the Original. Something big is missing like,... Led Zepplin

[ltuomela]

i don't know why people have to be so damn negative..its a great cover man...to sit there and talk shit and cant even strum the verse and shit...

[alexgamias]

6.18 obviously zakk....;)

[yossarianXful]

zakk solo has got fuckin more power than original xD
