His voice sounds a lot less low than in some versions I've heard.
I was listening to Robert Plant last night, trying to figure out what I liked about his songs 15 years ago. I'm having a hard time finding any that I like now.
I remember, for example, listening to "Tall Cool One" in the '90s and enjoying the whole song. Now when I listen, I don't care for most of it (including the lyrics) and there is only one part of the song that I like:
Robert Plant - "Tall Cool One"
I like the chorus, heard for the first at 1:30, because of its glittery, chime-like, dreamy feeling. I think I may simply like bells, regardless of the song! I don't like this video, though. It seems very contrived to me and makes the song sound even more shallow than it is. The video also makes Robert Plant and Co. appear egotistical (singing in front of their own mega-images on the screen). Robert Plant looks like he is trying too hard to appear cool, which is un-cool, unless he is doing it tongue-in-cheek. And I don't think he is. :/
