Just wondering what is your favourite Priest song to rock out hard on is

Mine is from British Steel - The Rage

That song gets me pumped like no other the guitar solo is perfect and those big power chords are rock beyond belief and thats not even mentioning the KILLER vocals .... Talk about pipes:music: Just a song that begs to be turned up louder and louder

Diamonds and Rust :music:

"Turbo Lover"

I have to say "Victim Of Changes".

"Diamonds and Rust" and "The Green Manalishi" are right up there as well.

Absotively posalutely Victim of Changes. It's got the guitars, it's part ballad part straight ahead banging, it's longer than the normal 3 and a half minutes and best of all the lyrics are pretty cool. The boys really nailed it with that one.

edit: We posted at the same time Tripqzon, but I have to say I like the cut of your jib...

Almost forgot "Better By You, Better Than Me" and "White Heat, Red Hot".

O.K. I can't pick just one. They have so many kick ass songs.

I totally agree. "Victim Of Changes" song has everything a Judas Priest fan desires. :rockon:

My three favorites are the same as your original three and they're best heard back to back to back on Unleashed In The East. I thought I found heaven when I heard that back in 1979.

If I had to pick one..... "Out In The Cold". Man, that opening son friggin' jammed in concert and on the Judas Priest Live CD. I blew up a few subs with that track back in the car audio days.

Now you've done it. I just put it on for a listen.

"Delivering The Goods" is another song dear to my heart.

The whole entire Sad Wings of Destiny.

The Green Manalishi
Grinder
Heading Out To The Highway
You've Got Another Thing Comin'
Bloodstone
Rock Hard Ride Free

To name a few. Priest may be one of 2 or 3 bands with no bad songs(AC/DC). They all rock your ass off, Period.

Tie between "Diamonds and Rust" and "Out in the Cold", both reached there perfection on the infamous Live album:rockon:

Better By You, Better Than Me

O.K. I can't pick just one. They have so many kick ass songs.

:thmbsp:

And to add to the list of all those already mentioned:

Hellion/Electric Eye
Love Bites
Heavy Duty/Defenders of the Faith

Hard to pick just one:
Victim of Changes
Beyond the Realms of Death
Sinner
Tyrant
Genocide

Judas Priest is one of my Favorite All-Time Metal Bands! They have so many good songs it is hard for me to pick just one. Many have already been mentioned, but the best I can do is list favorites of mine by album.

That's an awesome profile pic ... Where did you meet him?

Livin' After Midnight and The Rage.

Oh yeah,
"Victim of changes" is number 1
"Turbo Lover" is number 2
"You've got another thing comin'" is number 3
Those are my top 3, but there are several more...........:music:

I love priest , I think Turbo is the only album i do not like .....

Fav. song right now ? Maybe "Desert plains" or "take these chains off"


This summer to honor what will be approaching 30 years of British steel , they will play that whole album as part of the live set !

Almost forgot "Better By You, Better Than Me" and "White Heat, Red Hot".

O.K. I can't pick just one. They have so many kick ass songs.


Love the guitar intro to BBYBTM...


I have to cast a vote for Beyond the Realms of Death

This can't even be considered.. Every Priest song is considered a favorite... It's like asking which kid is your favorite.. Would you really want to say and piss the others off????

Speaking of Priest... Anyone remember this whole mess?

nothing from Rocka-Rolla?

Never Satisfied

WOW! That's a loaded question for me. I have all their albums. I really like the older stuff so I have to say the entire Sad Wings of Destiny album! OH! Then there's Rocks Rolla too! Crap, I like them all.

I have most of their stuff as well, but I still love the criminally-fueled powerhouse work on "Breaking the Law" from "British Steel"

Such energy. Great to BLAST. :yes:

I love priest , I think Turbo is the only album i do not like .....

Fav. song right now ? Maybe "Desert plains" or "take these chains off"

"Desert Plains" kicks ass too.

Yeh i really liked Point of entry , not a fav by most .
I gotta get out & see this summers tour , they were just killer last summer !

My 1st concert was Judas priest 1982 world vengeance tour with Iron maiden opening , they were touring number of the beast , what a night !!:yes:

Run of the Mill from Rocka Rolla. Fantastic song, it just winds itself up from the slow start to the intense ending. I always feel quite drained after listening to that one.

It's also a shame that the 'Caviar & Meths' short track was originally going to be a 14 minute epic.

My first concert was '81 Judas Priest at the Chicago Ampitheater Point of Entry tour. I wasn't a huge fan of "Entry" at the time but Desert Plains was awesome live. The show was re-broadcast on radio so I get a chance to relive it occasionally.

I would have killed to see 'em with Maiden.

Wow!! I saw that same tour. What a night that was. What I can remember of it anyway. :smoke:

I saw that tour but they had Uriah Heep opening for them in Denver. They played the old Big Mac (Machnicols arena).

As far as favorites I think Tower Boss pretty much covered all of them and even some I havent though of in 25 years.

Almost impossible to single out one song.

Very happy to see at least a few folks remember and have respect for Rocka Rolla, such a killer album.

How bout the live version of Diamonds and Rust from Unleashed In The East, has to be my favorite right now.

The Hellion/Electric Eye... no question about it.

:thmbsp:

I visual reminder for everyone. IIRC this ones from Mephis, Ken

"victim of changes" by far

As much as I love JP, the last two Halford albums were a step above. I've seen Halford's solo concerts three times and JP many more, but Rob's band totally rocked! There's a documentary on dvd that shows the story of Fight (Rob's first solo effort) complete with concert footage. Just amazing.

I saw him tour as just "Halford" opening for Queensryche who inturn were opening for Iron Maiden. Killer show from all bands involved :thmbsp:

Turbo Lover would have to be my favorite, awesome chorus........

Most of my favorites are from British Steel. N8

You've Got Another Thing Comin' gets my vote, but then I used to put Screaming for Vengeance on the turntable at night when I was a teenager, put it on repeat and go to sleep to it, so maybe I'm suffering some subliminal aftereffects. :D

By the way, awesome user name n8thesk8. They used to call me Nate the Skate when I was a kid. (My dad still does sometimes.)

i have that concert DVD. I went to the screaming for vengence tour in '82 in baton rouge. what a great show

That's really cool , i think i too have a copy of that show somewhere in my collection from the radio broadcast ... "Desert plains" is a killer live song , still love that live screaming for vengeance live dvd , the band was on fire !

IIRC this ones from Mephis.

Another favorite from the Memphis show:
