Heart covering Stairway to Heaven - fabulous!

Want to feel better today?

Watch this arrangement with a choir and orchestra and the incomparable Ann Wilson on vocals.

I love watching Jimmy Page’s face in the audience, and it looked as if Robert Plant was near tears at the end.

And you will see the Obamas enjoying it too.

Oh, please bring these days back soon.

1. The best Heart covers of LZ at YouTube have disabled audio or they've been removed.

There used to be a fantastic one of Misty Mountain Hop. It disappeared over a year ago.

5. It's either that one or close to it. Was that recorded at a performance in Seattle?

The one I'm thinking of was amazing. I wish I had conjured up a way to save it at the time.

Their LZ covers are the best.

Not sure which concert that was taken from. Album was released in 2007.

and you see that choir wearing those hats like John Bonham I almost cry. You can tell Plant is about to lose his shit too. Heart Rocks. I also love the intro to Crazy on You.

...wife.

It seems like forever since the United States had a cultured President and First lady as opposed to the philistines occupying the White House now.

As for the song; it wasn't necessarily a bad rendition, and, I'm not saying the song sucks, only that in my personal tastes it doesn't cut it.

Possibly this was because of all the kids when I was a kid who wanted to borrow my guitar to show me they could play the riff.

Most of them were annoying and for many it was the only thing they could play.
