this was EPIC....and people who say that Godsmack isnt talented clearly have been living in a cave....those guys are awesome musicians...its no coincidence that they are 8x platinum...some know your facts posers
The Alternative Metal kings of Boston, MA. I didn't think Godsmack would do something like this, honoring the legacy of the Gods of Heavy Metal, JUDAS PRIEST!!. \m/
@MrPapaoso42 "No Talent Ass Clown" was a reference to Michael Bolton, "...he's the one who sucks." It's a perfect fit for any music snob and was the intent of the aforementioned comment. Glad you were able to see that. At least you have good taste in movies. All snobbery aside, I agree that no one else does Priest like Priest, and no one should ever pretend that anything Priest done by anyone other than Priest can even come close. Priest & Maiden will always be heads above all others.
There's only one person on earth that could possibly satisfy me, trying to cover Rob Halford's voice. And, that would be Bruce Dickinson. Only person that could pull it off. But, I have respect for Sully and Godsmack for doing a good job at honring a great band.
@lambsal985 than you man!, I had that song recorded in a cassette in 1994, but I lost the cassette and I never knew the name of the song, you know, in that time there weren't so much facilities as now.
@JamesOhGoodie You are 1000% correct in your statement. I have been a musician for over 20 years and I grew up in the era of Judas Priest. Very few come close to the raw power and lets not even talk about Rob Halford. These guys just ruined classic Metal!
I saw Priest last year in London, and it was still the best gig I've been to (though I'm yet to see godsmack!) They were even better than Metallica. I am also from the same city Birmingham where priest were from, and nothing makes me prouder than how they have influenced music around the world. BUT Godsmack not only nailed this cover and gave it their own style, but created a timeless performance. What I would have given to have been in that crowd. It's time for Godsmack to join the Elites....
FUUUUUCCCCKKKKK YEA, this is freakin good funny to think Godsmack Came From the capital of my shitty home state GREAT JOB SULLY.......Godsmack kicks ass
Thsi Shows You How FK'N Metal Godsmack Is.....It's Hard To Pull Off Judas Priest, But Godsmack Did It and How. I Could Imagine If They Tried THE GREEN MANALISHI.
sullys no halford but he definately does him justice. im only now realizing how underrated sully is. people like to shit on godsmack but this proves sully is a talented vocalist
Hellion. It's usually introed to Electric Eye. I'm just amazed you can understand what Sully is singing in this song. Saw him live and he was drunk as fuck and slurring everything. I won't knock him here... Godsmack did a helluva job.
Hi belowzeroband. Put it this way. If it wasn't for judas priest, kiss and many many others. Bands like godsmack wouldn't even know the meaning of the words heavy metal.
@KhabukiJo Yes, You don't care thus announcing yourself a "No One" Whats more, I was touring for large crowds before you were an idea so talk about things you know about please.
Best cover is right, the main riff was srewed up at the begining, but it takes a fan of Priest to do a cover correctly and while I am no fan of Godsmack they kicked ass on this.
La mejor interpretación desde mi punto de vista🤓
This performance introduced me to Priest, and they became and have remained one of my favorite bands!
Woah! That's crazy... usually its the other way around.

Being a huge Priest fan I must say, they nailed it!

it's called "Rock Honors" for a reason. We will never be as cool as Priest.
A tremendous tribute from a great band of the modern era to a band that will always rock!
I am reading your post bro and thinking that they are no longer modern but I thought the same when I heard this first They nailed it.

Godsmack & Priest without a shadow of a doubt stole this whole.
I'm a big Priest fan from way back, and Godsmack totally blew me away....amazing.
Godsmack should play this way all the time!!! Sully was born to sing Heavy Metal!
Epic as FUCK, even if the guitar player can't hold a candle to Glenn Tipton, but then not many can, can they? Godsmack and Judas Priest FTW!!!
Yet another one of the innumerable reasons why Godsmack is one of my all time favorite bands
Don't wake me...THIS DREAM IS TOO FECKING REAL!!!
Victim of Changes off of the Sad Wings of Destiny album, 1976....It's my favorite song from JP!
@lambsal985 than you man!, I had that song recorded in a cassette in 1994, but I lost the cassette and I never knew the name of the song, you know, in that time there weren't so much facilities as now.
Look!Godsmack is THE BEST "new band" and it's not a question! And Sully has the greatest voice ever!!!!!
the best 144p video on youtube
Love both bands, awesome song.
one word....SICK
Great tribute to the best metal band ever!
FECKIN BRILLIANT !!!!!
Ouaaaah ! So great !!
sadly,vh1 don't show cool stuff like this anymore.
There is always VH1 Classic.
+Shane Jackson not anymore :(
+Angel G. I know right? Now it's call MTV Classic.
+Shane Jackson I mean it's barely alright :/ they show just a bit of good music here and there, but I definitely prefer VH1 Classic 100%
+Angel G. I agree. I only watch the MTV cartoons.
They did a great job covering Judas Priest.
That was amazing.
So much more respect for Godsmack now.
Great live band. Laying down the ruckus
Great performance
that was cool as hell...
this was, what, almost 5 years ago?....still freaking brilliant. I love this performance! I've only watched it about 300 times, though.

Love Priest. Loathe Godsmack.

It takes a fan of a band to play a proper tribute, and while I am no fan of Godsmack I must say they kicked ass on this.

Damn good cover !
o my god.this is so great
Just because of this
Im buying the next God Smack album thats released
THIS IS FUCKIN AWESOME! Godsmack should tour with Judas Priest!!!
I saw Priest last year in London, and it was still the best gig I've been to (though I'm yet to see godsmack!) They were even better than Metallica.

FUUUUUCCCCKKKKK YEA, this is freakin good
funny to think Godsmack Came From the capital of my shitty home state
GREAT JOB SULLY.......Godsmack kicks ass
@MultiMetalgod I love myself Godsmack and Priest in very different ways.
Thsi Shows You How FK'N Metal Godsmack Is.....It's Hard To Pull Off Judas Priest, But Godsmack Did It and How. I Could Imagine If They Tried THE GREEN MANALISHI.
Love Ya SullY!!!!!!!!!
I'm the rectifier solid state eye........
not bad but not even close to how amazing he originals are,JP are incredible.
The best live cover ever. Other than Hendrix or Clapton.
godsmack kicks ass
Probably the best vocal performance of Sullys' career.
He sucks...good for his unique songs only
I don't really enjoy Godsmack but this is a fucking epic tribute and cover they did for judas priest.! 5 STAR PERFORMANCE DUDE,........
I love both godsmack and judas priest they fucking epic! Please come to sweden!
this song kicks ass by GODSMACK
beastmode
sullys no halford but he definately does him justice. im only now realizing how underrated sully is. people like to shit on godsmack but this proves sully is a talented vocalist
Victim of Changes !!!!!!!!!!!!!
the second song is Victim of change
yea dude
i had that album when i was in 6th grade
FUCKIN AWESOME!!!!! WAU
I know Shannon did a killer cover of Turbo Lover back in the day.
@KhabukiJo LOL! That was pretty funny
Hey i haven't really listened to JP what's the first song called, sounds cool to cover on guitar
that would be awesome, they made a cover from black sabbath to!
I would go for hellbent for leather =)
they should cover each one of the songs they played here and include them on a album of theirs.
BEst version of Electric Eye ever!
Best COVER version? OK, maybe. Priest melts these guys into ash though.
i hope they record all 3 songs..i know Sully cant get the high voice pitch of Halford but the way he sangthe 3 songs are fucking awesome
one day it'll be Vh1 Rock Honors - Godsmack
For me it goes like that
1.metallica
2.ffdp
3.soad
5.godsmack
6.breaking benjamin
7.scorpions
@MrPapaoso42 I am curious, after reading these comments, can we see a video with you in it?
Hellion. It's usually introed to Electric Eye. I'm just amazed you can understand what Sully is singing in this song. Saw him live and he was drunk as fuck and slurring everything. I won't knock him here... Godsmack did a helluva job.
anyone know what type of amp that is he's using?
victim of changes
what's the name of the second song? after electric eye
@john88480
He's not TRYING to do Rob's voice. There's a huuuuge difference between ANYONE trying to do Rob's vocals and Rob's vocals.
Hi belowzeroband. Put it this way. If it wasn't for judas priest, kiss and many many others. Bands like godsmack wouldn't even know the meaning of the words heavy metal.
love godsmack. love the Priest even more, jeezus both of these bands are heavy. priest wrote the book on metal.
Not bad...
@KhabukiJo Yes, You don't care thus announcing yourself a "No One" Whats more, I was touring for large crowds before you were an idea so talk about things you know about please.
@marishol0911 I think Ewan MacGreggor
the only band thant could pull this off,
Best cover is right, the main riff was srewed up at the begining, but it takes a fan of Priest to do a cover correctly and while I am no fan of Godsmack they kicked ass on this.
kinda cool. it just doesn't mean what it did to me back int the day. HELL BENT FOR LEATHER....
1:38
what song?
