Led Zeppelin in Iceland - 1970 - Robert Plant Interview

[zepps88]

what a voice...even when he's talking it sounds like he's singing.

[CreativeChick8]

I've never seen any man as beautiful as Robert Plant. Nobody.

[Butown]

" How long will the concert be?" "Could be 2 hours, could be 3 hours. just depends on how we feel and the audience does." Aww a time when music had a meaning and the musicians understood it

[mjordan1998]

I'm pretty sure I'm straight, but Plant was BEAUTIFUL. his hair, jesus christ. It's like he stopped caring what he looked like though in his thirties had that ugly jerry curl weave

[superfunksters]

Dramatic song

[anartismal]

what's with the music at the beginning, i half expected their limos to burst into flames

[Jagethemage]

meanwhile, somewhere in Pompeii.... 

[capebee]

Robert Plant is so sexy and friendly here. He looks like a Norse god himself.

[LittleBuddha44]

the whole video youre just waiting for a shot and screams

[1Doz]

If Plant hadn't been a singer he could've had a career in England's diplomatic corps. His first answer is so disarming and so charming it's not even funny. His graciousness almost always stands out in the various interviews you see of him. Must have had good parents.

[1Doz]

Ironically Robert looks more like a Viking than any of them.

[M3town33]

Sub titles please. Iceland SUCKS!

[MellenBerger]

@M3town33 the important part is in English...ass....

[M3town33]

@MellenBerger the only ass is the icelandish without subtitles, remember this is a site for everyone which you will probably NOT understand even when you've read this comment ASS!

[N1k1mon]

Id pay a million dollars to be able to go back and be a part of that "Good time" he was talking about at 1:20, maybe 2 million even if I had to work the rest of my days paying it off!!

[mvandeven]

jeeze. with that music you'd think led zeppelin were concentration camp guards.

[mistad00m]

wow imagine walking by the airportt,

and you see ROBERT PLANT just walking out of a limo.

6 feet tall, with his mane of golden locks :o

[scarletwaters]

@mistad00m No shit...that would've been surreal.

[neilzep]

@mistad00m he was taller 62-64

[cuddlyclara]

hahah the music

[Peeze16]

worst interviewer ever.

[tepporocks]

Typical bloody Icelanders!

They always just stand there staring...

[googybuzzy]

Man that is some heavy DRAMA!!!

[TheInboil]

history here. there is zeppelin, and there is nothing else until the endtimes. period.

[Vieck]

The first 30 seconds it feels like I'm watching a WW2 documentary

[DiCola119]

@Vieck Thats EXACTLY what I though, I was just about to say that, then I read this

[BazzTheBoss]

aaah! long-haired vikings!

[93652]

LOL that music..i wonder who made that choice.....its as if the news media was warning.....Led Zeppelin has invaded iceland lock up your women.....or they too may find themselves unable to keep the vows they made to you sven...

[MrJoe915]

i agree with Princess Amy777 i never heard them talking despite being a fan since 13

[ariya13]

i want to lick him while the scary music plays just for us then he can invade my country and i will yell "Valhala I am coming" YESYESYESYES

[Duffy035]

bwahahaha! Thumbs up.

[theotherspice]

with the music and that clock going, it seems like someone's about to shoot them... :/ but robert plant is a legend <3

[TheGarryModder]

i dont think they would do this sort of music when rihanna or whatever comes out of a car xD

[jevicci]

Love the creepy music. Totally feels like someone's going to be assassinated.

[ariya13]

at 30 seconds planty doin the ole hair flip and checkin out his next conquest......damnit why wasnt that me! he could even play the scary music and invade my country....he he he

[dirtynuke]

must have been a nice trip to iceland

cuz after that they wrote kashmir

which is probably the most fucking epic song ever fucking written by anyone dead or alive.

[PAULLONDEN]

No.,@dirtynuke...Just came from the land of the ice and snow,the midnight sun and the hot springs flow.........................

I thought that was another tune......;]

[trixilim]

lol, true... the background music makes a weird contrast

[kryddbulle]

[kryddbulle]

[megaville911]

[DeNnaceTheMeNaCE]

I want to choke this interviewer so much!!

WHat a stupid unprofessional 1 dimensional idiot

[mickblake24]

[jonnyBB3B]

[orangetransformer]

[willie948]

@orangetransformer what the holocaust? yeah i agree, why werent u born in that era? fucking idiot.

[Paulzbalz]

Saved by the blonde hair....

[tonefordaze]

This video? Information on the time when Led Zeppelin invaded Iceland. Just listen to the background music. Tragic. They took no prisoners. Never again. Never... : )

[tonefordaze]

OMG, this chronicles the Led Zeppelin invasion of Iceland. Tragic, tragic story. Never again, never again... : ) (love the music at the beginning, World at War! LOL!!!)

THE DEVASTATION!

VALHALLA, I AM COMING!

LED ZEPPELIN, Rock it Baby, Rock it!!!

[AraGuitar]

the music makes it seem like they're assembling the first atomic bomb or something.

[ariya13]

i was at his concert row 7 he looked right at me.....he he he makes me feel like christmas morning

[twiggysangelfromhell]

Oh maaaan Robert looks so damn cute! So does Jimmy with the beard! Love them!

[imflyinn]

plant is a fuckin god

[zdragonforce]

cant watch it....

to scary..

[Coolinbnyoncrack]

This was filmed on my birthday which just happens to be the beginning date of the invasion of Russia by the nazis (Operation Barberosa). And... It just so happens to be a date of an interview with the GREATEST BAND EVER! ROCK ON!

[futuremrsjimmypage]

great footage, but the music reminds me of a Holocaust special...

[Venix946]

I thought for a sec that they were going to execute Led Zep

[gotzou]

aaahahahhahaaaaaahahaahhhaaahh­aha

[queenville]

best comment on youtube so far

[N1k1mon]

@Venix946 No shit, I was expecting to see Plant with a sign around his neck, written in Arabic when it cut to the interview scene!

[710917]

The background music sounds like something from Night Of The Living Dead...

[GuitarLedZeppelin]

its really nice to here him talk about the way they play live, i understand why they would make improvs on so many songs while playing live now and it really makes sense how he was talking about the mood of the audience

[bonzoplant77]

Oh fuck, how I love this. Long fucking live Led Zeppelin.

[PeteMazzoli]

Speak English

[gogogadgetspoon]

Ahahahaha ahhhh the music...

[Worldintime]

Why the music so creepy?

[ben99u2]

for the first few minutes i thought i was watching s sci-fi thriller

[blueprintwizard]

Some hairy stuff eh :)Bonham with a beard - good, Jones with a beard - amazing (if who i think was Jones), Page with a beard - wonderful, Plant looks like gallant musketeer - lovely

[wrldwar1691]

Horrible interview

[Rinaleightball1]

Cause zeps a creepy band, just playin, i like plants gotee, its badass

[Pattriky]

the backround music sounds asthough someones gunna be shot

[Khultan]

Ha ha ha....what's with the music? LOL

[thinkbeforeyouleap]

Well, at least we know what inspired the lyrics for Immigrant Song...

"Come from the land of the ice and snow, the hammer of the Gods......"

explains everything....

[TheBob777]

I actually enjoy the music it cracks me up. It's like Jimmy Page with pop up right behind you with a mask! great interview though.

[vinto34]

what with the horror film music playing...someone fucked up there.

[PissoDeStrisso]

it seems a WWII documentary at the beginning

put some led zep's live tunes!

[MarFinator007]

what the hell is wrong with them putting such a stupid song in the background :))

[itwontbez]

It must be something in the translation, but that music in the first part of the video was altogether creepy! It was as if Zep was coming off of the plane, only to have Bela Lugosi as Dracula come out of the crowd and start sucking their necks! However, the Plant interview was decent, and its another snippet of early Led Zep that was probably thought nonexistent until recently.

[NicoleTangerine]

Robert Plant is really polite. :)

All I want is one word.. Or one hug.. Or just one second of my eyes meeting with Robert Plant's..

And my life will be fulfilled.

[spikerollerqueen12]

Music sounded more like it was a holocaust documentary....

[jedijenkeez45]

what's with the music???

[linbsa]

I love Robert's voice

[katanael]

I love Robert

[enther7]

lol robert looks awkward

[xojbabyxo]

awesome..zeppelin rocks!

[darkness2121]

fuck the background music is freaking me out.........why they didn't put any led zeppelin's song

[marker853]

yeah i know what is this?? a horror movie, NO!!

[xJayWalkerx]

yeah the background music is creepy hahaha, not a good choice for a rock'n'roll band...

[jovauri]

This is Auschwitz music.....

[kelmundur]

haha! YES! What's with the music!!? RUV in the 70's. :)

[alkzazar]

why the creepy music?

[cmcconnaughy]

It's Iceland's national anthem.

It's cold and barren up there, the music reflects their culture.

[brainac0cult]

because led zeppelin are coming to brainwash all of us with their fantastic music!!!

[Zpand3x]

" popp hljómsveitarinnar Led Zeppelin" ? wtf hahahhhahaha

[DesmonJones]

the interviewer was quite brief. I'm sure he didn't speak english wonderfully.

[mother66]

WTF? Did they get this soundtrack from some Goebbels propaganda flick?

[RideMyBMW]

Ten bucks sez this trip inspired them to write "The Immigrant Song". Some o the hottest chicks in Europe they got in Iceland I dare say...Poor Icelandic

fu%$ers bet the farm on Real Estate

n lost baaaad. :(

[DrSquidley]

lol, i like the fact that robert is really polite

[PrincessAmy777]

Yeah, this is actually the first time I've ever heard him speak, despite being a fan for years.

He sounds lovely here.

[BrysonJohn]

You should watch The Song Remains the Same DVD to hear him talk a little more.

[kallispeed6]

góður ..

[marchini87]

Wheres the pagemaster?

[shikamaru412]

lol these clips sound like something from a foreign biopic initially

[ryssevik]

THIS IS CULT ! amen.

[ryssevik]

cult AMEN. #1

[ajjs02]

icelandish. or old norse. the oldest scandinavian tounge in the world.^_^

[panzermort]

what about 24 25 secs "porking her" lol its a forieg language dude anything can fit (sometimes)

[jevicci]

That's "borgina".

[Atomsmasher777]

That's old horror movie music. LOL

I half-expected Vincent Price to try to cover him with wax midway through the interview.

[ZiSt1989]

what´s that for a language? sounds close like hungarian  :)

[jevicci]

Icelandic

[slashsgeneration]

when they were in the US their behavior was terrible the forgot their wifes and children and turned to hot crazy chicks

they were manly sluts but hot sluts really hot

[azm1987]

lol whats up the music? it sounds so foreboding...

[ohwell121]

its the calm before the hammer strikes

*qeue immigrant song*

[sslink1]

i love how he is like... well we pretty much have no clue what were gonna do till we do it so yeah

[Defenderofmankind]

what's with the terrifying music at the beggining

[slashsgeneration]

robert plant gave they child or this old woman his hand because he saw this hot chick next to the two little boys.

Poor Maureen. I think he very often cheeted on his wife maureen also jimmy page cheeted his wife charlotte martin. poor womens

[hafsteinn]

he was also very interested in setting up a three way whilst staying here

[blufdoemaar]

omg,,at 15 sec. t looks like she said 'fack me' and at 20 sec. 'anus' xD

[iloveleointhe90s]

hahahah

[jevicci]

It's "fanga" and "einu sem" :P

[jevicci]

* sorry, I meant "fagna"...

[LiritChoiseul]

wow he seems like a nice cool dude. I love his speaking voice it's so mellow :)

he was hot :P

[f3rfra]

hey i've been searching for this concert, does anyone know if there's a bootleg for this show?

[frets4life17]

plants facial hair is creepy

[woodyt56]

That opening music is a bit dramatic, what? Sounds like Bela Bartok or something

[ariya13]

AND ON THE 8th DAY, GOD CREATED LED ZEPPELIN!

[pocketkiller123]

exelent!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[ariya13]

:31 sec.---- ole percy causually checking out the chick in the skirt !!!

[rca88]

Yeah, "creepy" is right. Does anyone have any idea what that background music is? Penderecki? (Someone in Led Zep might even know - those guys listen to the most amazing stuff from around the world.)

[kanger6]

you rock

[RockyRaccon12]

YES YES YES....

[MuoGa]

01:04 Becouse of the music it looked like an assassination video XD

[IxDisappear]

ROFL so true!

[Chelseacf]

Yes hahahaha

[overhere2000]

spooky soundtrack during the Airport scene.

[insertwittyusername1]

i love this music! lolz

[Rijah94]

he seem so nice there .

a very friendly and kind man xD

[spacecakes585]

dammit WMG!!!

[Antom1234]

He sounds so pleasent and intelligent

[tenyearsgone4]

It's during that trip that Page and Plant wrote "Immigrant Song"... "we come from the land of ice and snow..."

[cowboysfan782008]

I don't think thats true, and am not just trying to disagree, but I know that most of the songs for Zep 3 were written at a house called BronYaur, where the band was staying to make the album. Immigrant Song is about Vikings going into battle, if I'm not mistaken. (Hammer of the gods, drive our ships to new lands, fight the war) etc

[ck1793]

i'm 99.9% sure they wrote Immigrant Song in Iceland. . . Yes they wrote MOST of III in Bron Yr Aur

[Pimblit]

Based on what?

[ybspain]

based on his (Plant's) own words, see "Robert Plant interview Part 1" posted by hooligantelevision

[HonkyCat90]

Actually the last time Plant was in Iceland he said that they wrote it on Iceland

[DuaneAllmanBrother]

tenyearsgone is telling the truth. I am from Iceland and they are singing about the midnight sun and Plant has mentioned it that it is written about Iceland and another Scandinavian country s

[sigler22]

true.

[hafsteinn]

it was at least inspired by their trip

[patmcaguiar]

It is true, check what Plant says about it on the hooligantelevision interview part one.

[0misspennylane0]

Thats incorrect..

[samscheffer]

Great clip... thanks for posting!

[CountBoogie]

notice that Robert was actually a gracious interview and not a stuck up rock star.

Zep is the best!

[doten67]

the music sounds like one of jimmy's solos during Dazed without the distortion... lol

[Kashmirrrrrr]

What's with the horror music in the background?

[Aprilscurse]

you're so funny. lol

[thorkell11]

Haha nice. Ég hefði viljað vera viðstaddur þessa tónleika. Örugglega algjör snjelld.

[Shramir]

icelandic is such an awesome language

[wdsa8d]

pretty short interview

[gchris01]

Plant seems like a really cool dude.

[4legendcentral]

Ya same with Jimmy n also srry i accidentally thumbs u down srry bout that

[hazel10987]

It's funny to watch this because it was said that Robert wrote "Immigrant Song" while the group was flying to Iceland.

[Bratant]

When flying from Iceland actually. The song was first played live 6 days after they left Iceland.

[4legendcentral]

ya he wrote it based on their trip there, at least thats wat i heard

[geridg]

don't know about writting it on the way, but it's truely inspired by Iceland! Land of the ice and snow bb!....oh, and Bjork.

[GodstarRevival]

wierd music in this , ? Plant is cool.

[cira92]

Can you imagine a 3 hour Zep concert??

[MemphisBlueAgain]

Why should he be on coke? It is Iceland,

he's having a cold!

[bluetrova]

hahahaha

[ariya13]

Whenever i say the word "hours" now i pronounce it like Percy does....

[avengertom]

Great peice of nostalgia! and the Groupies! I love Rock and Roll!

[Ibroadcastmyself17]
