That's pretty cool for rob to tell buddy Jimmy that and congratulate him. I was so happy to c page as #3 of 100 best guitar players of all time on rolling stone. Good choice! I hope all is well between those 2 guys....
well i heard they dislike eachother, from a guy who used to drink with him and reffers to him as 'percy' either this guy i know is full of shit, or plant is full of shit in this video for the cameras sake
He puts words together so poetically and gracefully, not just in lyric, but in his general speech. To say you can't get much better than Led Zeppelin is a severe understatement. Few music artists even dwell in their presence.
It doesn't happen but a few times in a person's lifetime... to witness and experience the melody of 4 musicians that took the world by storm, and continue to be one of the greats.
There are few bands that come to mind... Zeppelin, Beatles, Floyd, Stones and Hendrix.
To change genres for a moment... Jackson, Prince, and Eminem
They all have shaped music in one way or another....
Thank you for all the hours of pleasure your music gave us......
The tribute equivalent of gangsta gold rims and curb-feelers on a hearse - a ridiculous embarrassment. Plant never saw a word of this stinking pile until they sat him front of the camera. What a bunch of mushy, flabby mean-anything, mean-nothing words piled one on top of another. A steaming load of meaningless movie-star-style I-love-ya-baby crapola that only a PR-man could possibly come up with. I'm embarrassed for all concerned just to have heard it.
@jum1801 Oh shut up! Did you ever think he might have thought about these things for years but not said them? Are you in the presence of Robert now? Unless you are and you can turn to him and ask "Is this a load of 'mushy, flabby mean-anything, mean- nothing word piled on top of each other?" then you can shut your mouth. To you, this may be mushy, but I genuinely beleive they care for one another and until you can prove me wrong, keep your big mouth closed.
@MissBeatleBailey My comment has nothing to do with whether RP & JP care for each other - they obviously do.The fact RP had never uttered those words before he saw them on the cue card doesn't mean he's a bad person - it's just the Hollywood way, and yes, RP is a Hollywood kind of guy now. His time is too valuable to be spent writing some "tribute" for a tv program. That's what writers are for. I just wish they had done a better job, that's all.
@jum1801 I misread the comment, very sorry! I thought about it in a different light. He has become a Hollywood man, but can you blame him? His time is really valuable, not to say he is dying or anything, but he is getting old and we only have a limited amount of time left with RP on this Earth. And, the writers did fine in my opinion. I do wish they hadn't said the same things over and over again.

@cinephilia1 did you just compare that stupid twat Bieber to plant? i am lost with words on that. Justin is a little faggot. hang Justin Bieber in a tree from his feet.he sucks
hi i see there are millions of YouTube comments but please Read anyway. I write original songs and sing , they are ruff but real, we are acoustic but will go electric for most songs Getting a fanbase is really difficult for artists and bands, still undiscovered by the big music labels, so it would really mean a lot to me if you could check out my channel and listen to my songs. If you could Llike' This Comment, that would be great too, so other people can see this comment thanks Apex13 ;]
@solomonsworld Yeah. We got the tail end of a dead era; the auditory feces of a global plutocracy in control of all that is doled out to the lowest common denominator. I feel great sorrow for those younger than I(close to 30). But music, like literature, can stand the test of time. Kids these days make me feel "cool." Sad........
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Excuse me but I find this "tribute" extremely shallow and insincere. Robbo Plant, you're just trying to patronize Jimmy !! GEt off your high horse Robbo and stop trying to say "thou shall rot" to Jimmy Page and instead give a SINCERE and HONEST appraisal of your friend and your MASTER .... the best way to do this is to shut your trap and actually go out and PERFORM with Jimmy .... instead of sitting on your high horse trying to give a "dichotomy recital" ...... get a grip you insincere toff !!
Maravilhoso....lindas e emocionantes palavras de Robert Plant para Jimmy Page. Jimmy é sem dúvida o pai do Led, mas sem Robert Plant, John Paul Jones e Bonham ele não teria decolado tão alto como o fez.
Viva Jimmy, mas também Robert Plant, John Paul Jones e que Deus tenha John Bonham ao seu lado....
Well said. The challenge for everyone is to respect J.P. without compare, for that is what his work is.
More over: not only is J.P.'s work from a place "beyond music" it is the most distinct music composition on guitar, and perhaps, any instrument ever accomplished since the days of the great classics. And, not even the classics could summon the originality with witch J.P. plays.
Beyond a virtuoso, beyond an innovator, "visionary" is the word that best describes this incomparable musician.
Robert plant has a talent that matches Jimmy page. Without Robert Plant, We would'nt have the Led Zeppelin we all love. Great musicians one and all. Thanks for the music guys :)
@liverpoolsammy Couldn't have said it better! I got the Zeppelin DVD set for Christmas and have played it over and over - Jimmy's exquisite guitar playing and Percy's colorful poetic lyrics mixed with Jonesy's multiple instrumental talents and Bonzo's pulsating drum mastery were like no other. They're terribly missed by us all.
Hey Robert fuck you dude ...I'll never forget how you made every male fan stair at your cock for The song remains the shame Wtf were you thinking , btw some nicely crafted words for Jimmy cool
@Mikethekiller7 use some wild alliteration like "colorful complementary construction" and then you can say you fucked your english teacher. wait what?
@pectinmania I didnt not take offense, I believe you have a valid point.Most Americans dont attempt to articulate thier words in a fashion to where they may sound sophiscated. Americans dont understand the power of a wide vocabulary and there should be more emphsis on expanding the youths vocaublary at a younger age. I wish i could talk as fluently as Robert did. Thats what makes him such a powerful song writer, he is smart, not just a stoner like many artist of this time.
@MrAllenjross If being a loser means having a country estate and millions in the bank after a career having a ball playing with one of the best bands in rock, then it doesn't look like such a bad thing. Meanwhile, on Monday I go back for another torture session at the office ... I wouldn't mind being as much of a loser as Robert ...
okay, I rarely cuss on here, BUT WHO IN THE FUCK CALLED ROBERT PLANT A LOSER?
And Led Zeppelin wasn't just one of the best rock bands in the world.
THEY WERE THE BEST! And let me tell you something else, out of all the bands that I have ever heard/seen, Led Zeppelin was one band that NEVER depressed me. Their music inspired young people to LIVE and ENJOY LIFE! NO! There is NO WAY that Robert Plant is a loser. HE'S THE BEST MAN!
@guitarttimman I think you have completely misunderstood my reply to MrAllenjross. I've always enjoyed Zep's music. I think Since I've been Loving You and The Rain Song were Zep's an Jimmy's finest moments - fantastic music.
Allen seemed to say Robert was an "ass kisser" and a "looser" and I was saying Robert P is as far from being a loser as it's possible to be.
Allen, correct me if I'm wrong.
PS. Shouting obscenities on YouTube (especially at middle aged women) isn't very classy.
Oh yeah really shitty huh? I invite anyone to come check out me playing "Twilight" and that came pretty darn close to getting me on England's Guitar Idol! yep, and I've sold CD's too! oh well!
Respond to this video... eppelinm does not lend itself to oldness. Zeppelin is about youth , being vital and crazy and exubeant .. I think Plant is embarrassed to portray Plant of 1972 and I do not blame him
@jhan76 why then do u suppose he will not tour with a reformed Led Zeppelin ? Do you think it is because he is just so dedicated to American roots music now that he just hates loud music and must 'keep moving forward musically " as he says? If that's so , good for him .I am not in favor of a reformed Led Zeppelin touring for just the reason I stated earlier , because I think it comes off ridiculous when a 65 yr old man with any dignity, as Plant has, sings 'Black Dog. Plant would agree
@RisingSon011@RisingSon011 Humm.. I kind of see what you're saying. Does he want to keep moving forward musically? Sure.. I would say he has even since the 60's, whatever the context.That certainly doesn't mean he would be embarrassed by anything he did those days. Far from it. In fact, in all the incarnations/projects he's done, he always brings out some of who we was. Why? That's who he is. He still sings Black Dog though :-) I can't post the link but check out RB and Alison Krauss
@jhan76 he does the songs sure , but not in the totally over the top hedonistic Robert Plant of Led Zeppelin kind of way . I dont think he is or should be embarrassed by any of the things he did with Zep , (except maybe the infamous bleached crotch blue jeans) but I do think he'd feel a bit strange doing what he did then , and giving fans what he thinks they would expect at a LZ show. I respect the man and his music. I have the Krauss/Plant album and I really like it
sounds like roberts giving jimmys funeral tribute to me but wait jimmys not dead yet good words from rp but i think he should have saved them for a tribute to jimmy in the future and why is led zepp not touring or making albulms again ive seen the runion footage and they rocked its not fair we dont even get a dvd released will we have to wait another 30 years for that hopefully they will play together again
Well, Percy could do us all a big favour and join up again with Jp, JPJ and JB and Tour. I'd love to see them again. Earls Court in 1975 was so long ago. It was there last night and the only time I got to see them 'Live'. Jimmy Page - what a fantastic 'live' guitarist. Les Paul hanging around his knees and pulling solos out of songs that didn't seem to support a solo. Mesmeric. Once more please.....please....please....
And now the kids would say "U da bomb man, innit!"
How sad that being educated, erudite and the best at what you do are no longer seen as something to aspire to. I tried to be as good as them. I failed, but I tried. I still made a decent living and had a great time.
Ahh...fu*k it! I've just let myself get old and judgemental...dazed and confused, even... :-)
Robert was the other half of the equation for bringing jimmy's genius to fruition with exceptional vocal ability & lyrical colour & vision......not to mention the best rythym section ever..........hear hear.....all hail the gods of valhalla
Ok then please for all of us ..... World tour, Can I just start sending you my paychecks you so I can get to one of the shows.... We all miss you guys. We need the thunder to rain down again..... One else can be zeppelin but you guys..... Jason is ready for Dads shoes, he has earned them.
Robert Plant you seem to struggle with your words about Jimmy Page.
You're trying so desperately to come accross as sincere but when I look
into "Thine" eyes .... I see "thy" deception. I sense you have not only abandoned
the "Honourable" "Sir" Jimmy Page twice .... but "thrice". I "hereby" exhalt thee of thine pathetic attempt to "hinder" the genious and multi-diciphonary juxtapositions of talent that is THINE Honourable Sir Jimmy Page. Thou Shalt not sacrifice THY ill conceived sincerity.
only jealous minds who know little of the wealth of music these (Led Zeppelin) have brought to music would say anything low here. You only do this to yourselves, this man is erudite and wise, a gentleman in a world full of musical thugs and amateurs.
@OctZide He doesn't need the money. Whether he likes him or not isn't the question. He's intelligent enough to have respect for a colleague he has worked with for years
@gingerbasser1975 These guys, at times, spent more time together than some married couples. They became adults together Yes, perhaps in the past, they disliked each other, hated at times but also loved as friends and at the end of the day, it's time to set aside all the shit and you're left with respect for another great musician.
@gingerbasser1975 Hi G. Thanks for the comment. I play the drums but not that well. I wouldn't call myself a 'drummer' or a musician. I believe the latter is someone who has musical abilities to their core and couldn't live without being able to play or write. What about yourself? Your 'name' seems to indicate the bass. And what about the 'Ginger'? Is this hair colour or perhaps... A certain 'Mr Baker' of Cream fame. Are you old enough to remember them? I do but then I'm ancient lol. :P
@gingerbasser1975 When you say 'read' their comments, I'm a little sceptical. If there's one thing the press do it's to blow everything out of proportion. If there's a vid on YouTube with one or both recently saying "I hate...." I'd believe it but otherwise, I stand by my previous comment beginning 'These guys, at times, spent...' etc. :o)
Well, Sir Robert -aka Golden God, and a lyrical giant in the best tradition, your tribute to Page was quite fitting, and well spoken. There would be no Zeppelin without any one of the original four, as the perfection of musical alchemy was achieved within that vehicle of expression. No musical force had ever crossed the continents before in such a way, and not one since that Im aware of. Without words to express the guitarists emotion, there would be no focal point for the overall gift.
holy fuck. imagine someone saying anything even remotely similar to you. That was intense.

Plant rules, and when hasn't he? I say this as a guy whom Jimmy Page inspired to pick up the guitar in the early 90's. Thanks for posting this.

Respond to this video... eppelinm does not lend itself to oldness. Zeppelin is about youth , being vital and crazy and exubeant .. I think Plant is embarrassed to portray Plant of 1972 and I do not blame him

@jhan76 why then do u suppose he will not tour with a reformed Led Zeppelin ? Do you think it is because he is just so dedicated to American roots music now that he just hates loud music and must 'keep moving forward musically " as he says? If that's so , good for him .I am not in favor of a reformed Led Zeppelin touring for just the reason I stated earlier , because I think it comes off ridiculous when a 65 yr old man with any dignity, as Plant has, sings 'Black Dog. Plant would agree
RisingSon011 4 months ago
@RisingSon011 @RisingSon011 Humm.. I kind of see what you're saying. Does he want to keep moving forward musically? Sure.. I would say he has even since the 60's, whatever the context.That certainly doesn't mean he would be embarrassed by anything he did those days. Far from it. In fact, in all the incarnations/projects he's done, he always brings out some of who we was. Why? That's who he is. He still sings Black Dog though :-) I can't post the link but check out RB and Alison Krauss
jhan76 4 months ago
@jhan76 he does the songs sure , but not in the totally over the top hedonistic Robert Plant of Led Zeppelin kind of way . I dont think he is or should be embarrassed by any of the things he did with Zep , (except maybe the infamous bleached crotch blue jeans) but I do think he'd feel a bit strange doing what he did then , and giving fans what he thinks they would expect at a LZ show. I respect the man and his music. I have the Krauss/Plant album and I really like it

Well, Percy could do us all a big favour and join up again with Jp, JPJ and JB and Tour. I'd love to see them again. Earls Court in 1975 was so long ago. It was there last night and the only time I got to see them 'Live'. Jimmy Page - what a fantastic 'live' guitarist. Les Paul hanging around his knees and pulling solos out of songs that didn't seem to support a solo. Mesmeric. Once more please.....please....please....

Robert Plant you seem to struggle with your words about Jimmy Page.
You're trying so desperately to come accross as sincere but when I look
into "Thine" eyes .... I see "thy" deception. I sense you have not only abandoned
the "Honourable" "Sir" Jimmy Page twice .... but "thrice". I "hereby" exhalt thee of thine pathetic attempt to "hinder" the genious and multi-diciphonary juxtapositions of talent that is THINE Honourable Sir Jimmy Page. Thou Shalt not sacrifice THY ill conceived sincerity.

@gingerbasser1975 These guys, at times, spent more time together than some married couples. They became adults together Yes, perhaps in the past, they disliked each other, hated at times but also loved as friends and at the end of the day, it's time to set aside all the shit and you're left with respect for another great musician.

@gingerbasser1975 Hi G. Thanks for the comment. I play the drums but not that well. I wouldn't call myself a 'drummer' or a musician. I believe the latter is someone who has musical abilities to their core and couldn't live without being able to play or write. What about yourself? Your 'name' seems to indicate the bass. And what about the 'Ginger'? Is this hair colour or perhaps... A certain 'Mr Baker' of Cream fame. Are you old enough to remember them? I do but then I'm ancient lol. :P

@gingerbasser1975 When you say 'read' their comments, I'm a little sceptical. If there's one thing the press do it's to blow everything out of proportion. If there's a vid on YouTube with one or both recently saying "I hate...." I'd believe it but otherwise, I stand by my previous comment beginning 'These guys, at times, spent...' etc. :o)

Well, Sir Robert -aka Golden God, and a lyrical giant in the best tradition, your tribute to Page was quite fitting, and well spoken. There would be no Zeppelin without any one of the original four, as the perfection of musical alchemy was achieved within that vehicle of expression. No musical force had ever crossed the continents before in such a way, and not one since that Im aware of. Without words to express the guitarists emotion, there would be no focal point for the overall gift.
