Led Zeppelin formed in 1968 and went on to become one of the most influential, innovative, and successful groups in modern music, having sold more than 300 million albums worldwide. The band rose from the ashes of The Yardbirds, when Jimmy Page brought in John Bonham, John Paul Jones, and Robert Plant to tour as The New Yardbirds. In 1969, Led Zeppelin released its self-titled debut which was produced by Page, as were all the subsequent albums. It marked the beginning of a 12-year reign, during which the group was widely considered to be the biggest and most innovative rock band in the world.

Thank you my dear brother, I would have never known Led Zeppelin if not for my brother.

[Chrisamos]

I’m pushing 60 yrs old and I can’t stop watching these videos, I would’ve never believed it when I was 17.

[cookiechanbr]

What a bass!
What a singer!
Whaat a guitaarr!!
And the drums?
The Fantastic Four!!!!

[Carlos-xzvi]

Keep an eye on this band....they're going places.

[pattyandersen]

Stunning. I was lucky to see them in the 70’s. 3 hours of pure bliss.

[robtittmann]

This music video is really a piece of art. Led Zep rocks!!!!

[raydeyelle]

No matter what they have done over the decades, they're still the best band who ever put albums out.

[toadfan]

I can say I definitely did not expect to see a new music video from Zeppelin in my subscription feed today.

[TMNigel]

Jimmy has the midas touch. Everything he touches turns to golden psychedelia...

[missamylou]

I am mesmerized by led Zeppelin. I put my ear phones on and go into a trance of pure genius/talent/and raw sex appeal that hasn't been matched yet. Thank you for all these songs.

What Is and What Should Never Be

And if I say to you tomorrow,
"take my hand, child, come with me."
It’s to a castle I will take you
where what’s to be, they say will be.
Chorus:
Catch the wind, see us spin,
Sail away, leave the day,
way up high in the sky.
But the wind won’t blow,
you really shouldn’t go.
It only goes to show
that you will be mine,
by takin’ our time.
And if you say to me tomorrow,
"oh, what fun it all would be."
Then what’s to stop us, pretty baby,
but what is and what should never be?
Repeat chorus Al estribillo
So if you wake up with the sunrise
and all your dreams are still as new,
and happiness is what you need so bad,
girl, the answer lies with you, yeah.
Repeat chorus
Oh, the wind won’t blow
and we really shouldn’t go
and it only goes to show.
Catch the wind, we’re gonna see us spin.
We’re gonna sail, little girl.
My, my, my, my, my, my, yeah
Everybody I know seems to know me well,
but they’re never gonna know
that I move like hell.

Led Zeppelin Never recorded a bad song.

[markking]

best band to have ever graced the earth

[spence]

Love Over 40 years Led Zeppelin has been my all time favorite band🍻

[BrokamaGay]

I love the dreamy parts where he sings softly, like a soothing, trippy lullaby

[laparisprimavera]

Stunning. Gorgeous. Brilliant. I can't wait to listen to the entire remastered collection. Thank you for this video. I hope there will be more. Led Zeppelin will always be the best rock band ever.

[lauriepants]

I come back to this video from time to time because it is just so mind blowing. It looks like what they would have done if videos were the thing in the 70's.

[christoskoulis]

...their impact in pop/rock culture is unsurpassable...!

[sidneypasquarelli]

One of my favorite songs from Led Zeppelin!

[NigelFortune]

Still sounds really fresh all these years later, love it!
