So many to choose from but this is my favorite Sabbath song hands down. It rocks but then goes into a beautiful melody only to explode in anger again!! As I understand it the guys from Sabbath had been fucked over by the record company for years and this was them expressing how they felt about it!
Not this song or album. It was "Sabotage" album that expressed their anger towards the record company and the lawyers that were present while Sabotage was being recorded. Can only imagine what that was like. Arden was a total shit bag as well.
Well fockin' done for this!...The original was a total headwreck with the butchered edit of the music making the video unwatchable...It was just a waste of the great old Sabs footage...A.million thanx to you man...
Have been into these guys since 1970 when I was 8 years thank you Black Sabbath for saving me from that wimpy pop rock and disco you guys were ahead of your time thanks for creating heavy metal
Sabbath is The One. No other debates need be presented or suggested. Friendly arguments and discussions are always welcome within cool and at least semi-reasonable people. And by posting this opinion I've already shown bias . And baked to fuck on one of Iommi's strains. :) :) :*
e pensar que eu nem era viva nessa época, aprecio tanto as músicas de épocas que meus pais nem se quer se conheciam, são tão boas que nunca me canso de ouvir
There is no doubt what so ever. British Metal is the very first, and that started with only Black Sabbath. Not Led Zeppelin, though I live LZ. Not Cream, or Deep Purple, and certainly, not a single band from frgn america. Tough shit U.S. !, lol.
@@verresmilliterres Black Sabbath started as a blues band. Where did the blues come from? The Mississippi Delta. Where's the Mississippi Delta located? The United States of America. No blues? No rock/metal. You're welcome rest of the world.
@@SparrowHawk76 That's like saying the English come from Ukraine because it was the homeland of prehistoric civilisations and the Indo-Europeans, from which the English originated. Lol.
Don't sleep on the late 80's era of Sabbath with Tony Martin singing and Cozy Powell on drums. They made some killer records that have just been buried (most likely by Sharon).
@@niktommiska8581 дык я и не гоню. Рони это Рони. А БС в оригинальном составе это БС. Мне все классические группы приемлемы в золотых составах. Образцовые - Queen и LZ. Никаких замен. Вот это я понимаю. А Рони он везде Рони. Никогда, нигде его не потеряешь. Он всех гнул под себя.
How could a dog （An airdale？） look so evil, and a guy (Geezer Butler?） chugging a pint look so mesmerizing!? I won't consider dogs or beer the same way ever again！
I think Ozzman is holding a large, round pie as the band walk out of the forest. I suspect he's about to throw it at the camera, since by his own admission he likes custard pie fights. (The forest is reported to actually be Geezers back garden, it's all quite awesome)
Actually, Mtv came out in late '81. And no, Europe did not have it before the US. Up till Mtv (with the exception of Mike Nesmith's "Elephant Parts" video compilation), bands would occasionally do what was called promotional films for a song. The Beatles had done two in early 1967 for "Penny Lane" and "Strawberry Fields Forever". Both were groundbreaking at the time. I say Sabbath's 1974 promotional film for "Sabbath Bloody Sabbath" is definitely groundbreaking as well!
This riff which is lauded amongst Sabbath fans could very well have been ripped off from this Brazilian single that was released a couple of months before? What does everyone think? Unless someone was in the Brazilian recording studio and subsequently passed this on to Sabbath it's difficult not to think of plagiarism as its an almost direct lift yo my ears. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-fOnciH5Sy08.html
Was that ever released in the UK? The opening riff does bare a strong resemblance... Sabbath did mention that paranoid was a kind of rip off of led zeps communication breakdown, quickly written as album filler. another sab track called hand of doom had a very close sounding bassline to cream - sunshine of your life.
@@Viczarratt Doubt if it was ever released in the UK or even Europe. I guess the other explanation is that despite the date of the Brazilian record it was recorded after Sabbath and the wrong date put on the disc meaning the plagiarism is the other way round. I''ve listened to the album the Brazilian track comes from and it's at odds with the style of the rest the music on it. Guess that could be another indicator that something is amiss with the dates?
@@philbell5774 it's kind of a funny story that goes round with the sab song you know. the guitarist was suffering writers block at the time, so the band stayed at clearwell castle, which is thought to be haunted with spirit's. This was where the riff was thought up. Perhaps it could of been telepathy that bought such riffs into this world! 😁
