Video info: Jimmy Page was the one who wrote lyrics for the entire first Led Zeppelin album. And it wasn’t until the second album that he managed to convince Plant to join in. Plant soon developed a clear set of directions in his lyrics. Sexuality on one hand and storytelling on the other. Specifically nordic and whelsh mythology caught his interest. In this video we’ll talk about Led Zeppelin’s musicianship and Robert Plant’s fascination with northern mythology.

Interesting video 👍✌️💜😊
I feel that "No Quarter" is more about either the Templars, or more than likely, the Albigenses/ "Cathars" (especially the two who escaped siege of Montségur😉 with "News [new testament?] That must get through"🤔).

So stoked I found your channel. I love rock and I love Norway! My family lives in Bergen ☺️
Zeppelin is my favorite band of all time, albeit Metallica and Depeche Mode are tied for a close second. Thanks for this awesome video!
Edit: you can play, too! Wow! 👏🏽👏🏽

You should stick to the stories about bands and up your chops before giving lessons

And where exactly is Led Zeppelin´s connection to Norsk Mythology now, apart from having written TWO songs – and a song connected to Tolkien, who himself had nothing to do with Norsk Mythology?
You could just as well see a "connection" to dogs, because they wrote Bron Yr Aur Stomp…

1:06 Plant writing about sexuality… with Jim into Nordic mythology… 2:37 mentions the reverse… needs clarification…

2:37 … slight confusion as to who was fascinated with Nordic mythology…

The keyboard effect on "No Quarter" is a phaser not a flanger. Specifically a Maestro Phase Shifter.

I studied Mythology in college and the Norse Mythology has a unique and valuable perspective on Life and Death, obviously influenced by the cold, harsh habitat. I also recognized and appreciated Led Zeppelin's Norse mythology references in No Quarter and Immigrant Song. As for Ramble On, however, references to Tolkien characters are not really "Nordic Mythology".

When I hear this song, like some other from Led Zep, I don't see Vikings, I see a witch cabin in the snowy dusk, and I see Krampuses. 😅

Immigrant song is clearly about Icelandic people's emigrating to Greenland. Fight me.

For me, Jimmy Page is the gamut of life’s past into future the lessons we learn by others &of suffering and the magnificent beauty around us if we pay tribute to it – into music into rock- the ride into past & future.
Robert Plant is a Sex & Love Sultan that connects the human in harmony.

Is it a coincidence that these 3 songs are among my favorites AND have this Nordic influence? In any case: I learned something new AND this video makes me wanna listen to Led Zeppelin even more! Great content, Lie 😀👍🏻

I think the lyrics of No Quarter were written after the music, so the music wasn't crafted to follow the lyrics. The reason I think that is that there are earlier versions of No Quarter to be found on You Tube with no lyrics. In fact in one of them Plant sings along without lyrics, he's just singing la la la sounds.

Plant did contribute to the song writing in the first album but he's not credited because he's still in a contract in other record label;)

The main guitar riff in No Quarter is one of the most orgasmic things ever in music. Actually not just the guitar but also the keys, bass and drums all together… It's transcending, no other way to put it. That song and Ramble On, both perfect in my book. Of course LZ has lot of perfect tunes.
One of my "definitive" rock bands for sure, and the list would go from era to the next: (punk and metal not included)
The Doors
Led Zeppelin
Pink Floyd
Van Halen
The Cure
Jane's Addiction
Soundgarden
Incubus
Queens of the Stone Age
Tame Impala
