The ride that is Black Sabbath. A lot of us grew up listening to Sabbath and we turned out way more normal than those that didn't. It's so fantastic seeing your minds open to such influential music.
IKR? I love seeing these kids discover these tunes like we did so many years ago!!
I had to reread that second sentence three times. Did you really just say "I am more normal than others because I grew up on Sabbath"? :D
63 and ageing . professionally qualified , with my wife since 83 and still I listen to Sabbath
... Amen to that
Amen im 50 so i grew up on it
The song was inspired when the band toured US Armed Forces bases. Geezer Butler talked to a lot of the soldiers. They had just come back from Vietnam. Many of them had undiagnosed PTSD. A lot of them could only cope by using heavy drugs.
The bases were 'halfway houses' in England and West Germany. Our boys hadn't crossed the pond by that time.
The sickness of and caused by war
exactly happy eggs the copeing .
Morphine shots too.
Exactly.
Timeless content backed by genius musicianship, 50 years later it still has relevance.
the DRUMS! Bill Ward is awesome. He has a groove and when he's in it, the band follows and kills.
Thanks for the reaction as always!
mad respect to geezer butler ! phenomenal base too!
Bill Ward is a drumming God
You guys really missed how significant that drum beat is. This was 1970 and that beat has been used countless times in hip hop.
The drums the beat the bass the lyrics the delivery. 🔥
The funkiest bass and drums ever, hip hop before there was hip hop. This one has been sampled to hell and back, for good reason🧨
It’s an absolute jam, no two ways about it! Everything on the paranoid album is good. Bill Ward was a beast on drums
the early years of Sabbath are some of the greatest music penned and played! unfortunately music like this is not coming around again.
I really like how people are rediscovering this lost era. :)
Black Sabbath is plain and simple the TRUTH!!! My favorite band since I was 7 and I heard them at my uncles house 40 years ago. It’s also when I realized what pot was. It wasn’t incense Uncle Kevin!!! It’s was weed!!! Haha! They just don’t miss. I see a lot of people that haven’t heard full sabbath songs that are into hip hop and r & b loving them. Mainly because of you really listen, they overlap. And it honest. There’s a lot of soul, groove, funk and blues in Black Sabbath. Love your reactions guys. Keep it going. Peace and love
Black Sabbath every song has so much meaning so much truth !
You nailed it. They wrote this song after performing for the troops in Vietnam. Its absolutely about how rampant heroin abuse
was among troops in Vietnam. You guys are awesome.
Rampant? Vast majority served cleanly and honorably
I think you nailed it with your take on this Asia
They have so many really good songs. Here are a few more to check out:
INTO THE VOID.
BEHIND THE WALL OF SLEEP.
A NATIONAL ACROBAT.
SNOWBLIND.
You should also add “Lord of this World”! Heavy lyrics
@@mnob1122Definitely, that belongs
You forgot “Symptom of The Universe”
@@CANDOKNOWHOW Definitely...that's a great one.
@@CANDOKNOWHOW 👍🏻 another Sabbath classic.Definitely a favorite
The music is timeless because it's so real!
This why black sabbath is so iconic in music. Ozzy and the guys really could write good music and lyrics that made you 🤔 think.
So glad you chose this one. Sabbath is so groovy.
In 1974 when I was 9, my friend and I were riding our bikes behind a K-Mart and I found 2 Eight Track Cassettes by an industrial dumpster, 'Paranoid' and 'Sabbath Bloody Sabbath'. Black Sabbath's 2nd and 5th albums. That's when I started getting all the Sabbath albums. My mom hated it.
That dumpster had taste.
My grandparents took them and said they burned them. Black Sabbath and Paranoid. They lied.
Found them about 30 years later in their house.
A lot of soldiers came back addicted to heroin from Nam. Geezer the bass player wrote the song after seeing all of the syringes left on the ground by the audience. This came out in 1970. I heard it around 72, when I was 10. Been listening to them since.
I've seen plenty of your reactions and I know you've covered some heavy stuff but I now feel you have really earned your rock wings!
Black Sabbath are insanely underrated by those who never heard them. Us converts can’t properly express the rating
Black Sabbath! The ultimate OG's of metal. Completely original. Totally new sound.
This is one of my favorite songs. So good musically and lyrically. Y’all nailed it, as far as the meaning. Definitely doing drugs to escape reality, the hand of doom pushing the needle in. My uncle was in Vietnam, I don’t know if he ever got into drugs, but the shit he went through. It’s horrible. Horrible. What you had to do to survive. I don’t even want to say because it’s so bad. How anyone does not want to escape that, I don’t know. Sad stuff.
My bible thumping Granny told me that my dad probably did drugs in 'Nam.
It was that bad apparently. My dad grew up an Opie Taylor kind of guy too.
Classic Black Sabbath
lol, dark old school sabbath. I think my mom thought i was going to hell listening to this when i was a teen
I am in my 7th decade of life and hard core Black Sabbath from the beginning. As a heavy surf/skate party animal in the 70’s this song scared the absolute Shiite out of me ad well as everyone around me. As with all of Sabbaths early work, it is not a glorification of saten and drugs but instead a WARNING. This piece stopped countless 70’s casual drug users dead in their tracks and saved countless lives!
Yet another great reaction from "my time".. I fell asleep to this kind of music. Never learned a single kids song because my parents were all about the music, whiskey and being hip 🤣 I love you guys and your reactions. You are REAL ✌✌🌻🌻🇧🇻
Yes indeed, going to school, working part time, party hard and stick in a 8 track tape of Black Sabbath with head phones, rinse and repeat he, he, he !!!!!
I love when Asia gets the stank face during the guitar solo
I love to think about this coming out in 1970 and Master of Puppets in 1986. Both songs with a very strong anti-drug message that parents hated because of the music itself. Both have crazy transitions and are relevant today.
I have always love Black Sabbath, and this song rocks. I'm big on lyrics, and I have seen about three different lyrics for the line 'Price of life too high.' First one I saw a long time ago was 'Frights of life you hide,' then 'Price of life you cry,' and now this one. They actually all fit when talking about PTSD.
Great choice guys! My personal fav Sabbath song. PLEASE keep em coming and God Bless 🙏🏼🙏🏼
This song was written after Sabbath played some shows for troops during the Vietnam was and discovered the totally rampant herion addiction among the soldiers. Asia nailed it.
I paused your video 2 seconds in so I could comment before I listen. I have to say that you've chosen a great song and i predict a great reaction. I cant wait to see how floored you will be. Good choice. I've been waiting for more Hand of Doom reactions. Again... great song.
You notice how the music changed after they stuck the needle in? Now they're going through a euphoric phase. Hi Uncle was hooked on Heroin in the Vietnam War. By Uncle told me how many ways they used it.
I grew up with BLACK SABBATH. MUCH LOVE TO YOU AND YOUR FAMILY 💕BRANDI MODRAK.
The first 5 Sabbath albums are legendary. A couple that nobody reacts to are Warning, solitude, megalomania, rat salad hole in the sky and so many more. But if you like a lot of changes in a song I recommend Warning first.
First 6 albums Black Sabbath , Paranoid , Master Of Reality , Vol.4, Sabotage , Sabbath Bloody Sabbath
The albums 'Technical Ecstasy' and 'Never Say Die' are actually pretty good too, and if you add 'Heaven and Hell' and 'Mob Rules', Sabbath's first 10 albums are worth listening to.
Mike B I agree but it's the first 6 that they are at the top of there game
Born Again is fantastic as well
I was too young to see Black Sabbath with Ozzy, but saw them with Ronnie James Dio in the Mob Rules tour. Was awesome.
I was lucky enough to see Ozzy on his solo tour as well. I think it was Diary of a Madman.
thanks you guys for reviewing the song. metal music is definitely an expression and a reflection of how many of us metal fans feel on the inside about the world we live in and the issues that are typically avoided by the mainstream media structures.Black Sabbath is from Birmingham england, heavy industrial city, rough place to grow up in and you were gonna be working in a factory after high school for the rest of your life. Stuck there. Ozzy said in America all this popular music was mainly about peace and love and lovey dovey bullsht and were they are from was quite the opposite and they were going to reflect that because they’re
fucking real. They were responsible for creating a new type of music and that was coined “Heavy Metal” by a british music journalist referring to Black Sabbath specificalqly. Im 50 and growing up were were told that this type of music was crap and would not last but us early fans knew that was wrong, and we knew there was something special happening around this music. Metal music has literally created a sub-culture of people word wide which I am proud to be a part of. Metal is an attitude and a way of life for us that are real and ain’t afraid to express our realness. I love and respect ALL forms of music that is REAL and would have never taught myself how to play guitar 30 years ago if not for Metal. Metal came from Blues music. Blues music was REAL
and powerful and genius. Im very thankful for that and those who created it. Anyway thanks I much enjoyed watching you all listening and reacting to this tune. You missed NOTHING in my opinion. You felt the energy the way it was meant to be felt proving to me that you’re both very talented. More that you think. I know this. 👍
Sabbath toured in 76 with Nugent opening for them. Had to be EPIC !!!
The song as about how many of us coped after Vietnam and Ozzy speaks reality of how many reacted after their service back then. We had no Help coping with PTSD except vets getting together and talking with each other and DRUGS sadly . I lost some good friends because of that lack of Help then
God bless you,my brother...you are appreciated !
The first heavy metal band,,,Black Sabbath is the gold standard!
Might be the greatest anti-drug song out there. Sabbath is a big hole that always satisfies. Hope to hear more reactions to them.
I was lucky growing up my, I lived with my dads family & they all had great taste in music, even Grandma liked Black Sabbath!!
Ozzy Osbornes father was worried about his son and his band mates because of the type of music they were playing so he gave them each a Christian cross to protect them
Paranoid LP is not just a masterpiece but also it s an artistic image of an era not just about the vietnam war but the end of innocence of hippies era and the cruel reality of the world.Not anymore LSD trips and happy naked people dancing.Drugs kills, politicians send people to be killed without reason,the fear of nuclear war is there
Those higher pitched guitar wails or jabs when the heavy parts of the song kick in never fail to give me goosebumps. It's like the psychedelic trippy music that came years before it (Iron Butterfly, etc.) only ten times heavier. My parents were terrified of this band back in the day.
The high jabs seem like Tony is emulating jazz horn stabs - and damn me if it doesn't work perfectly.
Thats an Extended 7th Chord with a 9sharp... [E7#9]
AKA the "Hendrix chord"
Gizzar butler is an amazing bassist
You guts are on point with your analysis of this song. This song is really about PTSD before it had a name. A lot of veterans came home from Vietnam with mental issues from the war and turned to hard drugs to cope with their feelings. The musical sections of this song also mimic the downward spiral of drug abuse that an individual experiences when enveloped in drug addiction. Brilliant composition. 👏
Yeah. I think this song is about Vietnam Veterans turning to drugs in order to cope with trauma they experienced in combat. Black Sabbath were not lyrical geniuses, but they crafted so many ridiculous riffs they can't be ignored.
Considering their ghetto upbringing in post WWII England in a town that had rubble everywhere, Geezer had something going until Dio took over the lyrics writing.
Yes, Geezer had exceptional lyrical output by himself for those first 5 years especially. I'm not quite sure what your talking about.
Dark and dirgeful song. This tune takes you on a ride.
Great reaction to a classic song. We’re craving more vintage Sabbath
So many good, heavy rock/metal classic to try with Sabbath. Supernaut, War Pigs, Sabbath Bloody Sabbath are a few more to give a listen to. Riff magic with this group.
Yeah there's kind of a little bit of a jazz element to this song with a drumming and I want to tell you something my brother and sister there's a little inspiration here because you know the guitarist he worked at a butcher shop when he was younger and unfortunately had like two or three of the tips of his fingers cut off with a bandsaw but that didn't stop him he got Prosthetics to go over those fingers and he went on to play guitar and he made legendary music so you know that thing didn't stop him and thank the good Lord that it didn't cuz a lot of people would just give up shit people have two hands most of them don't even try anyway you know it's amazing alright you two youngsters
Proud to say I went to black sabbaths last ever concert a few years back in Birmingham England where they came from. They played hand of doom in their set. Check out ‘Sabbath bloody Sabbath’ ‘Snowblind’ and ‘changes’ which is one of the most beautiful songs ever written
Great breakdown of a truly brilliant song.
This used to be my all-time fave song to jam out to on guitar. That 2 chord riff is still the heaviest thing ever.
Osbourne on vocals, Iommi on guitar, Geezer with thee filthy bass and Bill Ward on drums started something in the 60s that still is relevant in Feb 22
I'm 60 and I experienced some heavy drug use in the 70's. I have never stuck a needle in though being around the scene and I give some of the credit to this song. Not much turns my stomach but the sight of an addict shooting up does every time.
Black Sabbath - Into The Void....heavy message, heavy bassline :)
My bro-in-law told me some stories from Vietnam, he was a gunner on one of those riverboats. ....It's a wonder they ALL didn't come back using...Anyhoo,...he just passed not too long ago from many forms of cancer...he had been exposed to Agent Orange...He was a cool dude....
Yeah you guys nailed it. This is about soldiers with PTSD turning to drugs and taking it too far
i'm 50..got into them in early 80's during teenage time,still listen and having that goosebump everytime.. that's Black Sabbath,The Metal Icon!
Black Sabbath. My childhood in music. With you guys. Wonderful.
You are exactly right it's about soilders coming home from Vietnam hooked on heroin because of the horrors they witnessed
Next Sabbath should be "A National Acrobat" or "Under the Sun"
You know you two there was another thing that I forgot to tell you my good friend and myself we went to the fabulous Forum in Inglewood California and we saw Black Sabbath right after they put out this album and they did the whole album paranoid which is like one of their most legendary albums of all time probably one of their best
With Black Sabbath its not about the lyrics. It's the riffs, bass, guirar, and drum fills. Yes lyrics are awesome too. Its about the music 🎶..
Saw the 1983 tour...Ian Gillan from Deep Purple had taken lead vocal duty from Ozzy by then, but still a fantastic show. Stonehenge stage setting was awesome! Quiet Riot led in for the show...think I paid $12 for a ticket back then...damn times have changed in that respect.
You both are awesome, jamming to Black Sabbath
I forgot about this song. My eldest daughter's Dad was a medic in Vietnam. He came hope addicted to heroin from having to do things he could not live with in his soul. She was born in February 1971 and he died trying to kick the doping in Sept. of 1971. Drinking while taking detox meds, Trauma and the Vietnam war killed more men when they returned than the actual war itself did. Sad but true. This song was John's complete story after returning home.
I turned 56 recently and pretty much dig the 70's music. Skynyrd, Alice Cooper, Jackson Browne, Eagles, CCR, there is so many.
I'm not sure but I think the inspiration for this song was the US soldiers on their way home from Vietnam that had a stop in Europe who were addicted to heroin.
LOVE the fact you got it,,, you got the message ... LOVE that
ELECTRIC FUNERAL 🔥🔥🔥
One of my favorite Sabbath tracks. I really like the follow-up record "Master of Reality", particularly the track "After Forever".
The lyrics are from the bass player, Geezer Butler. I suggest Children of the Grave by Black Sabbath with a lyric video like this.
My first time hearing this song although I listen to some black sabbath but with so many music out there I see why I miss gems like this
It's kind of interesting how these guys got their sound. Tony iomi the guitar player, was at his last day of work at the Mill and was cutting a piece of steel and cut off the tip of his middle finger I believe it was. This was the last day he was to work before they went and started playing to get famous. Tony iomi went home and made his own prosthetic fingertip and that's what makes their sound.
I believe if not mistaken this song deals with how many soldiers returned from Vietnam and turned to heroine to deal with their PTSD.
Any war for that matter.
Song is pure fire
Neil Young sang about the same thing
with “Needle And The Damage Done”.
Great song…check it out!
Was in a Sabbath cover band for a few years. Glad to see folks can still dig it
First concert I went to.they were awesome
I love your observations on this song! Has given me a new appreciation for it. Thanks for sharing
HAND OF DOOM uuuummmm. I Clicked here immediately. Have not heard the track in ages. Man but that was heavy .
There are references to Vietnam and what soldiers did to cope with the horrors of war!
You nailed it guys. I'm the biggest black sabbath fan..
Bj thank you for translating Asia for us Bro your the man !! You got this !!
My favorite Sabbath song 🎵 of many many more.
What an apt name I was tripping the first time I heard this and it appositely blew my mind I kept playing it till I came down about 18 hours fantastic band
The first album i ever bought on CD, way back in the day
One of my favourite Black Sabbath songs absolute classic the song is about how alot of Vietnam soldiers got addicted to heroin.
Black Sabbath is the SHIZNIT!
When many of the soldiers came back from Vietnam, they had post traumatic syndrome. Beyond that the American people would call them murderers and baby killers and spit on them. The chemicals that were being dropped, caused horrific medical conditions, for them as well. They were not able to get proper medical attention, there were a lot of painful deaths. The whole thing was horrifically bad.
Just more proof that Metal was invent in England. I was from a part of England. That is about to a 2 hours away by car. From were These guys are from.
One of my top 3 Sabbath songs 🤘🏻💀🤘🏻
great song! talked about a thing in the times, off the paranoid album,,,,metal was growing at this point in time
The first song on the first album is Black Sabbath.
I was 13 or 14, relatively innocent and it scared the SHIT out of me.
Probably my favorite sabbath song.
you were both right ... its a song specifically about GI's coming back from viet nam with big time "H" habits they picked up coping with the war and in general people living under the constant threat of nucellar annulation back in the world, and i think Asia's thought that the music simulates the trip is correct ,, the rush , coming down ..dealing with reality, dying. the reality of the world on the brink of destruction was something we dealt with in different ways back in the day,, thank you , keep up the good work!
Ironically they were all doing the drugs mentioned plus others during their time together. Ozzy just went crazy with the heroin and other drugs and that's why they ultimately kicked him out of the band. Then he continued rocking solo for decades before finally getting sober. I think in his 60s! But I'm not sure on his age. All I know is that Ozzy and Keith Richards from the Stones defy all logic when it comes to longevity. God bless them though. They made it through. Another great reaction from my fav couple. 🤟🏻🤟🏻
None of them used needles. They were snorting cereal boxes full of cocaine, delivered by the record company! That and alcohol left Ozzy's voice and memory for lyrics seriously diminished. Cocaine numbs your vocal chords and your brain, all you have to do is snort it.
