BLACK SABBATH - Killing Yourself To Live (Official Video) 

Those fillers he does are so tight but he crushes them

This song is powerful on the drums I'm a drummer and beat ts out of my drums playing this with my headphones on. Sabbath fan 58 years old since 1980

There's always one or two

Bill Ward is a Badass!!!!….

Very true brother. He's not just some muffled bass behind the other instruments his bass playing is like Cliff and Harris. In your face . Same ol story ...Singer or Guitarist gets all the attention. Except Steve Harris lol

My dad listened to all theses heavy metal and rock and hard rock bands in the car and we were in the car alot since we were traveling some parts of america and i never listen to the music because i had my head in a phone and didnt care now i just started listing to mettalica black sabbath slipknot rainbow and alot of others bands im so glad my dad introduced me to theses bands

Rock on my friend, I am 70, and have loved them since their first album back in Feb 13 1970.

Hell yeah!! I'm 19 years old, but I love rock/heavy metal bands like Judas Priest, Black Sabbath, Deep Purple, Led Zeppelin, Nazareth, Budgie, Saxon, Iron Maiden, and KK's Priest. And of course I will make rock music alive forever even though I like another genre music like pop, jazz, country, etc🤘🏻🎸🔥 Greetings from Manado (North Sulawesi), Indonesia🤘🏻🇮🇩🔥

This I shall never forget.

Rock on friend!! (Too)

Greatest drummer of all time !!!

I watch this just to gawk at him 🥵 and Ozzy's hair, too

Indeed

What are a riff

@@BrianBrodnax-bu6rp.. A riff is a slang word for bar cords, or a rhythm of bar cords put together. Its mostly used in the Rock and Metal world.

@@BrianBrodnax-bu6rpLOL

Thats how these drug fueled monsters of music did it back in the good old days

Yeah, man!

Yesss.....

Yep

Yes, my brother in metal tastes

🤘

It is. It's fucking timeless. Yeah, this song is amazing. This song, Paranoid, and Planet Caravan are my favorite Sabbath Tracks. I am fucking in love with Sabbath. Have been since I first heard them growing up. (Early 80s for reference). I got a few bands for you to check out if you have the time...The two bands were heavily influence by Sabbath and are incredibly talented and unique in their own right. I put them both right up there with Sabbath honestly. That's my opinion at least. Anyway, check out Electric Wizard and Uncle Acid and the Deadbeats. Good intro songs to them are for Electric Wizard: Funeralopolis, Electric Wizard (self-titled song off their self-titled album lol), and Saturnine. For Uncle Acid: Deaths Door, Night Creeper, and Mt Abraxas. Also, if you end up liking the song Funeralopolis by Wizard... You may really like the band DopeThrone. They are a super heavy sludge metal band. Chameleon Witch and Riff Dealer are two fantastic songs by them.

For sure!! Don't get me wrong, Ronnie James Dio was great with Black Sabbath also.

@@scottwillie9914 Oh yeah. Just prefer Sabbath with Ozzy. Feel they wrote far better albums back then. Geezer really had a knack for that early on

@@LemursManLemurs1 I agree

It's my favourite and I'm 58

Yes Bill Ward is a awesome drummer, awesome group

It's not easy to play for sure

All them witches Fuzz Kyuss 1000mods Check it out

💯 Ozzy has a very unique and haunting voice, which fits perfectly for Black Sabbath.

A ton of later doom metal singers try to imitate him but there’s definitely nothing like the original!

Yes i agree 💯 Ozzy is awesome singer,alot of great songs ❣️ have a great day

Ever heard of Bon Scott?

And it was even crazier in Sabotage

Yes Ozzys a great singer and Great group 😁

@@luisemilianogonzalezvinces3400 Yeah Sabatoge was the most underrated album. My favorite to listen to still today. No hits, but Sabbath's best was not just the hits. That was Ozzy's best. Megalomania...The writ...omg Sabbath Bloody Sabbath was as close to that as they ever got. Ozzy's prime. I had that tape in my boom box driving my Ford Pinto like it was a Mustang with an Alpine stereo.

Don't forget Sabotage man...he was outta this world on that one to🤘

Yes I agree Ozzy osbourne a great singer and a great day to you

No they were timeless

time was ahead of sabbath

Really? I'm no expert on Rock, but groups like Sweet did songs similar to this around 1971. So did the (girl) group Fanny (check them out!). And neither of these groups were first. They took inspirations from The Who, The Animals, Jimi Hendrix, and many others.

but they lasted the test of time, that's for sure

@@herrbonk3635 As you state you are no expert. The Sweet although good where a glam pop band. The other legends you mention are totally different then Black Sabbath.

The original and still greatest

With positive and inspiring lyrics

You’re right! :)

Clearly the precursors of gospel.

LOL good one - May I borrow it?

You see the grown men in the crowd crying! Powerful stuff!

Me too I’m glad I’m not the only one

Niice!

Yep

Now learn to play drums and play this, not easy and you'll burn a lot sweating trust me 🥁

And then rode the bloody horse (still playing a couple of more riffs)

His hands knew there wasnt enough time

Rifftastic

That’s how it was when popular music was good

and he did it song after song after song

@retroperitoneal I’d add Jones and Bonham

Bill & Geezer is the Ground on which Black Sabbath is Built , Superb

Yes,so true,and ozzy,great singer.

@@wolfech1 very true, but they are all amazing musicians man :)

Absolutely Truth !!

Yes I agree black Sabbath a awesome group

An infinite* bunch

Zappa knew👍

This one reminds me of the shadows band he was influenced by

​@@marklane870 Yeah, Tony Iommi was a big Hank Marvin and Shadows fan 💯.

Billy Corgan slept in the next few days

Thank you for your time and consideration

Nolan 🌟

Your killing yourself to live jokingly said you were going to be a little late today and tomorrow and tomorrow night 😬

Right on Frankincensed! The Sabs were NOT one ...or even TWO dimensional.. They might have been 'focused' because that was their sound.. In all reality though, they drew from a full pallet of musical history.. They knew it ..and used it well.. ; ^ }

I'd buy that... Hard rock is how I've always seen them untill the late 70s, then things blossomed.

@TheGreaterGood80 Into the Void, too.

Ace of spades. \motor head/

@Chris Cull why you butt hurt over thrash metal? Rock n roll spirit runs through a lot of 80s and 90s thrash. Thank Sabbath for starting it.

What Black Sabbath song reminds you of death metal?

Doin that right now brother 🤘🏼 .. goin thru the worst breakup of my life. Just turned 30….. going back to this shit my brother and uncles used to play all the time and what I listened to in elementary… is saving me ❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥

You're not alone. "You work your life away and what do they give?" I've been fortunate to thank Geezer Butler himself for this one and a few on "Sabotage" that helped out some decades ago when times weren't that great.

@@andi_xi Sabbath has a fucking powerful music that can make you feel better even in the worst part of your life. Keep strong and keep rocking, good luck

Thanks everybody!

That's funny a your comment cause that's exactly what bands have is there own style and sound lol

Hell yeah brother

Two great things have come from Aston, Birmingham. The Villa and Sabbath! ;)

Yes,me to,my granddad was from England😊black Sabbath a great group

The other one would be Rainbow...(though more multicultural?)

@@Havencheese Geezer is actually a Villa fan

No dispute there

Maybe erkin koray ?

@@bauer444 yes,me to😊

Yes besides Led Zeppelin

@@TysWifeyy I like the Led Zepplin song,nobody's fault but mine😊and stairway to heaven,I remember that in 78was12.

Absolutely, right on brother.

Agreed!!!!!

Matheus Navarro , Absolutely, as a kid I played this song over and over, bloody brilliant! Still one of my favourite Sabbath songs.

yes,my friend,it's one of their best,as sooooo many others.i don't believe it's underrated for people who like Sabbath.maybe only for the charts,but for us is another great hit,from the biggest band ever!

costas komodo , Hi mate, Technical Ecstasy seems to be one of those Albums that doesn't get much of a mention and there are some wicked tracks on that one, correct me if I am wrong but I heard Tony Iommi produced it as well.

100👍👌🤘🤘

All these crazy virtuosos with their technical masterpieces will never create anything heavier than what Black Sabbath did with 3 notes. The song I'm referring to is Black Sabbath. On the album: Black Sabbath. By the band: Black Sabbath. Black Sabbath, Black Sabbath, Black Sabbath. Although Iron Maiden, Iron Maiden, Iron Maiden was pretty good too

​@@lordthicknipples-gt2oqIron Maiden was the best on the first three records, piece of mind is good however the record Killers on the drums is fantastic

@@m42037 don't forget about Powerslave!

I've never enjoyed any drums as I enjoy his!

BILL WARD 💕

His snare sound is primo.

No Bill No Sabbath!!!!!!!

Yes yes True!! But I really love Tommy Clufetos. He also fkn great drummer. Ozzy has the best drummers Bill Ward and Tommy Clufetos. They are genius! But Bonzo and Ian Paice are not bad certainly !!! :D

That's the SBS album for you!

Yes, sexy. Before twerking had a name.

@@Losrandir sexy bloody sabbath

I love that ending ! Makes me just feels like head banging

They don't call Iommi "The Riff-Master Extraordinaire!" for nothing... 😊

You freaking CAN’T get tired of Sabbath! Greatness is never tiresome!!

Facts.

He's murdering wasps and butterflies alike and taking no prisoners

There's the one guy in the audience giving him a run for his money

This side conversation is hilarious

Thats how hes controlling the stage lighting..they are all plugged into a clapper👏👏👏😂🤣

Bill Ward is the effing man

Animal from the Muppet Show was modeled on this drummer.

@@RLifestyle453 I hope this is true

@@RLifestyle453 no he wasn’t, Animal was modeled after Keith Moon from The Who and John Bonham from Led Zeppelin

That drummer is William Thomas Ward aka Bill Ward one of the goats

Yes black Sabbath a awesome group I remember the song iron man in 1972when I was 6☺️ and loved them ever since then

Same with me except my dad turned me on to Sabbath and I was hooked on their music and still am starting when I was 11 in 1986 still a big of a fan as I was then long live BLACK SABBATH

My dad used to blast Paranoid when mom wasn't around.

@@ianvance9035 LOL! 👍

Exactly the same thing for me only I was in 7th grade.

Black Sabbath are Gods

Yah! Did you catch the 2013 reunion show? No Ward; Brad Wilk from Rage on the kit...awesome drum solo!🤘🌲😎

Yes a awesome group and song

Aged, 66

I think its how people look and stare not well

thanks for the post

Yes a awesome song and group

Thanks 🖤🖤🖤

It’s not the way the world was planned. I don’t hear meant when I listen to it

slapping hoes and sellin dope lmao

ME TOOOOOOOOOO

Damn!! That's awesome...

I feel the same way! I have listened & love Sabbath since I was 10 years old ,I am now 60. 🤟

And all the other genres ..

I haven't even heard the whole Heaven and Hell album yet...I've got some catchin up to do, eh? You can stuff Born Again tho ( no offence to Ian Gillan, another of the greatest voices In Rock😉)

@@jeph33 BORN AGAIN is a Fantastic Album...

@@barryjgillis I'll have a listen...thanx, Barry. Metal on, dude🤘

As long as Geezer is in the band! That Tony solo stuff suked

What the hell was Geezer playing ? An eight string bass, 12 string ? Who the hell knows.... Wore it out though. 🤔

Yah, and the fkn aftermath of it (2022). We need music more than ever now!

I love listening to Black Sabbath during hard times, like right now where I have a crippling leg injury to where I can’t walk (I sprained my ankle four times). I almost misspelled it and my brain almost accidentally made me write sprayed instead of sprained lol hahaha! 🤪🤣 😝 And I haven’t gotten enough sleep because of bladder issues (because I peed four times during the night lol) !🤣 I’ve dealt with this my whole life and when I have a full bladder , it’s sooooo painful!🥺 :( When I go pee and empty my bladder it feels so good though; I don’t know why? Probably because my poor bladder is probably so glad to get some sweet relief . 😅 🥲 😮‍💨 🤷‍♀️ I have always dealt with this and I’ve adapted , so it hasn’t been a problem , but it is annoying when it keeps me up . That’s why I’ve been trying to create a plan for that , like peeing and emptying my bladder before I go to bed , drinking enough water throughout the day , and quitting drinking water right before my bedtime . In addition, I make sure I’m eating enough too . I love Black Sabbath; I am a big fan of them and I love Ozzy Osbourne’s voice ; it’s so good and it helps me get through tough times ! Thank you Ozzy and Black Sabbath!💕🤘🏽🎸

Get well soon, Lady Bladder 😊! BERNIE GERMANY BOLLYWOOD LOVER 😊

So pure l love them

It sounds like the future

Fuck yeah those dudes are feelin it !

They were my first concert 1974

You really nailed it with this comment

They were photoshopped into the video

Music brings us all together.

For me Keith Moon and Bill Ward in Hard rock drumming.

Bill Ward was awesome and he’s one of my favorites but sorry Bonzo beats the both of them, in speed, power and rhythm

That cocaine and probably qualudes

✨🤩Jordan Quesnel✨🌛✨⚡️✨🌝I think you’ve got something there, Jordan! ✨💥✨☄️✨⚡️✨🌈Very Good!!!🌟✨☀️✨

@@gaylelau001 Whoo, whoo, whoo, whoo, whoo.

Woodcock Johnson why would you say such a thing ?

Woodcock Johnson you obviously know nothing of this band.

Абсолютно Absolutely

The music anyway. 1 down (Ward), and ol Oz ain't in the best of health. How he's still alive I'll never know; I guess Sharon saved him from himself. Anyway, glad I caught them in 2013. 2 times I saw them in the later 70s...and they sucked! It was ok, tho. Van Halen blew them away opening for them on their first tour (78)

Air dance

@@notrelevant4212 meh

Van Halen opened for them in 1978.

@@Danimal77 yes!! Van Halen played, then black Sabbath didn't because of a 'problem' lol they came back the following Friday, so got to see Van Halen twice that week. Were you there?

@@Danimal77 in Nashville TN at the municipal auditorium

But it wasn't Geezer who wrote that song. Bill Ward wrote it.

@@pehbs3224 Then you must not know much about Sabbath then. Like every song from the period with Ozzy, Geezer wrote the lyrics(words). Bill Ward was too incoherent to write lyrics as good as Geezer. For all of the early Sabbath records, Geezer Butler wrote the lyrics. Bill might have come up with the title, but Geezer wrote the lyrics(he claims they were written after a stay in the hospital dealing with kidney problems from drinking too much)

@@wrayven right, like 5 years in and it's already taking its toll on him. Ward would certainly not come up with this in his best day! Great drummer tho..kinda jazzy

I learnt Sabbaths first album note for note when I was 15 too...46 now...

Steven Clifton we have stuff in common... Except the country music!

Right, when's that time travel thing comin along, Elon?

MVDOTTLINGER ... the original caveman

Wayno Walden you bet ya

MVDOTTLINGER YES 🤘

Exactlly! All the talk about Bonham all THE TIME! Bill Ward is much more INOVATIVE! Scuce me for my bad english.

Beating them skins like they just fucked his sister

yes

...don't you mean "AFTER FOREVER" ?

there will never be I have a metal band like Black Sabbath

Do you mind telling ? Greetings from austria

THEY SAVE YOUR SOUL WITH ROCK & ROLL

and they rocking harder than everyone!

it all depends on where someone grows up . and who they hang around with.

Another one right here 🤷🏾‍♂️

I had a black friend in high school who loved Sabbath and Rush, we used to jam out together all the time.

ni yo hermano, lo de ellos es algo unico, ninguna cancion mala fue hecha por el grupo principal. Aguante Sabbath!!!!

Sabbath worship

Led zeppelin

Yes they were! 🤘👍

@@brandonhofmann5479 for some. The rest of us just enjoy the tunes

У меня даже винилы есть, "Paranoid", "Vol 2", "Sabbath Bloody Sabbath", "Sabotage". и концертный. Привет из Сибири.

Nice juxtaposition there, Charlie!👍

Niiice 👍🏽
