What are your thoughts/remembrances about the song "Stairway to Heaven"?

Or do you even have any? Did you grow up listening to it? Was it played at every party and get-together? Did you learn to play guitar with it?
Were you around when the song was written or did you discover it later? Was it something that your parents listened to, perhaps making you shut up when it came on the car radio?

Here is a performance of the song by Ann and Nancy Wilson at the Kennedy Center in 2012 and Robert Plant, Jimmy Page and John Paul Jones are in the audience.

Two questions came to mind as I watched it:
What must it be like to watch such a great performance of a song you wrote, performed and made famous? and What must the pressures be like for an artist (particularly the guitar soloist – look at Pages’ reaction) performing such an iconic song in front of the persons who gave it to the world?
