Innuendo on the other hand was supposed to be rehearsed, however I wonder how much it was even rehearsed considering how awkward it turned out in places! There was no excuse for the botch job, however that being said at least Robert managed to remember most of the words which couldn't be said at all for Freddie and Immigrant Song.

Freddie's better. Especially when comparing live singing. Freddie even played the piano (as well as guitar) at the same time when singing. Robert only singed.

Don't get me wrong... I like Led Zeppelin, but can you actually classify what Plant did as singing? Most of the the time he was moaning, screaming and/or wailing.

A spot on impersonation of a porn actress!

"moaning, screaming and/or wailing"

Welcome to music!

"however I wonder how much it was even rehearsed considering how awkward it turned out in places"

Wasn't just Plant screwing up, either. Brian and Roger had a couple of moments, haha. I dunno - just a wrong place, wrong time kind of deal I think. Plant was sounding fantastic from around '95 to '98 - I won't even preface this with any kind of disclaimer, but he was sounding better than he had for a good chunk of the 70's.

It'll always be one of those 'great on paper' scenarios. Same as Queen with the Immigrant Song, I spose. Baha.

Well Robert was a big influence on Freddie, so without one we mightn't have had the other as a vocalist. I like both

Indeed; I love them both, even in periods where one argues that their voices were slipping. The fact that they thought so highly of each other should send a message to anyone who tries to credit one at the expense of the other.
