What is the Greatest Hard Rock/ Metal Song Ever?

[darthseinfeld]

Tony Iommi may be the most under rated musician all time.

Check the Primus version out sometime. Great Les Claypool bass solo to close the the song out

NIB and Snowbling are my two favorite Sabbath songs

Lol he must deleted it, but that was some serious off the rails stuff

I think a mod must have deleted it, because I had a response deleted as well

Personal fave

Honestly I have no idea what he was saying. Something about drugs and law enforcement and the Pope

Now if you think about, that all does have the makings of a pretty sick metal song

If I remember correctly, he was accusing someone (Tobascocat?) of supporting drug use, and was saying really off the wall stuff, just because he (Tobascocat?) didn't agree with his choice of Joe Cocker. It was really bizarre.

Personal fave

Iron Maiden's best, IMO.

Get your facts in the ball park and rock and roll more than your own version of a punk rock.

Who the heck do you think you are? Seriously? Who the heck are you?

 

[Vtwin]

Somebody has to do it.

Somebody has to do it.

Definitely an iconic riff!

I'm a huge fan of AC/DC and Thunderstruck isn't even close to their best song.

I'm one of those people, whose opinion changes with my mood. Sometimes Thunderstruck is my favorite (especially when comparing videos), sometimes it's Let There Be Rock, Ride On, Squealer, or one of many others.

 

[SlammedZero]

Well, I'd say this track is up there on my list.

War Pigs - Black Sabbath

I'm very well aware of the song. I'm also aware that it's neither hard rock nor metal. That's almost as ridiculous as Jethro Tull winning the Grammy for "Best Heavy Metal Album" over Metallica.

BTW, that's not even the best version of the song. The original Beatles rendition is far superior.

In all fairness to Jethro Tull, they did do great Hard Rock.

I love Jethro Tull, always have. But they have nothing in their discography that should, by rights, beat Metallica, in the Heavy Metal genre
