Black Sabbath - A National Acrobat - ( Hiphop Head Reaction ) 🔥

[@glennkirchens7970]

Q: How many songs can you fit in one song?
Sabbath: Yes

[@stuarthopkins1308]

"Man I feel that shit." Never a truer word.

[@davem4193]

The bass player Geezer Butler wrote most of the lyrics for Sabbath.

[@abracadabra3033]

Guy was incredibly gifted

[@masediggity]

I guess they say Geezer wrote 90% of the lyrics, mean while Ozzy would come up with pretty much alllll of the melodies. People like to come at Ozz for his lack of writing, but without his sound Sabbath falls to the wayside.

[@mojobag01]

Geezer wrote the main riff to this song as well.

[@metaphoria3]

The way Ozz delivers them tho shout out Geezer

[@MrBaronCabron]

@@abracadabra3033 the funny thing about your comment is your could take out guy for geezer and it'd be the same sentence haha

[@billsouth37]

Fucking love A National Acrobat. Sabbath Bloody Sabbath and Killing Yourself to Live are another two great picks from the album

[@RazzleDazz72]

And Sabra Cadabra!

[@guslulu4126]

Man, I love these dirty, bluesy guitar riffs with never ending tempo changes, insane drumming that never lets up, and add Ozzys almost haunting, one of a kind voice, singing those dark, mystical, philosophical lyrics and you’ve got the audio crack cocaine that was early Sabbath. It always sounds fresh and relevant and will continue to be discovered and rediscovered for many years to come.

[@abracadabra3033]

I agree , but yes , dirty bluesy exactly it

[@tonyanderton3521]

Spot on, Gus. For me, given the lyric content and Ozzy's unique delivery, that you mention there, I see him as more a preacher than a singer.

[@richardpennock6448]

Gotta do a reaction to Spiral Architect, my man, from the same album.. Kind of a deep track and freaking amazeballs.. Also Sabbra Cadabra and the title track Sabbath Bloody Sabbath are killer.. Ah hell, anything Sabbath did in the Ozzy days is straight FIRE!!

[@abracadabra3033]

Definitely will do , thank you

[@46lurtz]

dude, i see your Motorhead shirt! F' yeah!

[@sammybeck7794]

Your handle abracadabra reminds me of another Black Sabbath song, Sabbra Cadabra. That's another great song to react to.

[@abracadabra3033]

Will do definitely

[@lisamorrison2149]

Classic. Yes, its HEAVY! Good choice. I love Ozzies voice in this one, he's bringing his A game. They all are.🔥🔥

[@abracadabra3033]

Indeed

[@davem4193]

Iommi is playing funky AF in this.

[@Lemmys_Mole]

My fav Sabbath track & there's no shortage of candidates either! This is my sweet leaf.

[@notalcno9]

Candy-dates. There's enough candy on this album to make you wanna book a date with the dentist.😂

[@tracythehippiechick]

Instant party just add Black Sabbath...This never sounds old to me...Another great choice..

[@chrisw3421]

More MUSIC people will still be listening to 100 years from now.

[@mikegoin6023]

Liked it before I even watched. Some things you just know LOL
If I was stuck on a deserted island and could only listen to one band it would be Sabbath.

[@abracadabra3033]

Totally agree

[@stephenclark3774]

I just love the diabolical riffs that this band seems to have on every song they do!

[@davidmastro5406]

Abracadabra, great choice--one of Sabbath's greatest songs!
Tony Iommi is one of Rock music's geniuses. He played in blues bands in England, prior to Sabbath. His career nearly ended before it really started, when he lost the tips of two fingers on his fret hand, during an accident while working in a machine shop. He contemplated giving up music, but then he recalled the great jazz guitarist, Django Reinhardt, who played incredibly, despite the fact that he was missing some fingers. So Iommi figured out a whole new way to play; he wore rubber thimbles on his damaged fingers, used lighter-gauge strings on his guitar, tuned it down, etc. In the end, the heavy distorted guitar sound that Iommi pioneered, initially described as "Atomic Blues", came to be known as "Heavy Metal".

[@abracadabra3033]

Atomic Blues , i like that too

[@davidmastro5406]

@@abracadabra3033, I wish the "Atomic Blues" name had stuck. I think it is far more descriptive of the music that Sabbath made.

[@zinkarius7]

Yea brother this one and war pigs are my favorite sabbath tracks

[@abracadabra3033]

War Pigs is my top ✌

[@zinkarius7]

@@abracadabra3033 man im telling you they are legendary i completly underestimated this band,if you love war pigs you should check out "iron man" from them

[@originalpottsy]

My brothers put me onto Black Sabbath when I was about 13 when the Sabbath Bloody Sabbath vinyl came out to the disgust of my parents and to my awakening. Sitting in my bedroom with a portable record player was the beginning of my musical education. Still have the songs on my playlist 50 years later. Still have the vinyl too 😁 it was a huge moment and much different to the first record my mum bought me - Nancy Sinatra "these boots were made for walking". Don't have that vinyl any more.

[@Shingen036]

I grew up with this band. Me and Sabbath are 40 years in.

[@wls64]

Hearing these old masterpieces change your brain for the rest of your life... well done

[@skanda1832]

Best band of all time. Hands down.

[@davidmastro5406]

One of Sabbath's greatest songs. The somber guitar riff in the first portion sounds almost... Medieval. Another great reaction, Abracadabra. Your contemplative approach to these videos is really unique and appreciated. Your channel is "The Thinking Man's Reaction Channel". Much appreciated, brother!

[@lsdlocks4673]

I'm 62. It's still one of my all-time favorites. Tony Iommy is a master on his guitar, and don't forget, he plays with prosthetics. They are all great and combine they are just one big explosion of muses.

[@notalcno9]

Ditto.

Solidarity, old school. Solidarity.

Right there with you man, every time it ends I'm like "NO! it's ending". Best bongo tune I know, so great.

[@tonyanderton3521]

I always read the lyrics to this song to be about reincarnation. However, according to the songwriter, Geezer Butler, himself, the lyrics contemplated the mysteries of birth. He said that "A National Acrobat was just him thinking about who selects what sperm gets through to the egg". Spiral Architect is about DNA. Anyway, a great song. Another great reaction, man. Best wishes from England.

[@abracadabra3033]

Thank you and wow , i have to check out ,Spiral Architect now

[@montag4516]

That was a killer track, and the whole album is great. But the real knockout from that album is the title track "Sabbath Bloody Sabbath". Somewhat of an epic in it's own right. I expect you'll react to it in time. This was their 5th studio album and by this point were dealing with all the excesses and trimmings, as well as the trappings, of big name rock stardom.
Really enjoy your attuned, yet equally relaxing, reactions. There's an almost meditative atmosphere to this channel, which is a welcomed gift in contrast to all the external worldly madness. Peace.

[@abracadabra3033]

I truly truly appreciate that sincerely , and i definitely will be reacting to Sabbath Bloody Sabbath ✌🙏

[@abracadabra3033]

Thank You

[@ZalMoxis]

I was in a Sabbath cover band in the 90's called Sabracadabra ...I was Phoney Iommi... I'm left handed and play an SG so it was kind of fitting to do it. You're right their music was tough, born from living in Birmingham in the UK in the 50's and 60's.... Glad you're digging the journey bro... take care.

[@DocLong1]

Heavy chill music. Doesn’t get much better than Sabbath.

[@AstroXeno]

One of Sabbath's best deep cuts
Seconding Spiral Architect.
This whole album's great- One of their best. Check out Sabbra Cadabra as well.

Right On! This music is on... my soul RIP Chrissy and Baby John every day Thanks Bro

ive had reoccurring dreams that feature either this song. or what hes talking about. thats how much it sticks out to me. the whole thing is just facts bro. 1 year later and ive watched this reaction probably 6 times over the course of it.
just remember...
love is life and hate is living death

[@libertypills5580]

Greatest concert I’ve ever seen! Original Sabbath line up in 97! I felt Ozzys anger and threat! If we didn’t get up and go crazy he was going to punish us! He made me feel like if I didn’t let go and enjoy myself my soul would be cursed forever! Thanks Ozzy!

You want to hear vintage Sabbath ? Look for the band " Earth " . That's pre - Sabbath before the name was changed . They started off as a band playing blues , but didn't make it . Look for songs like " The Rebel , When I Came Down & Early One Morning Blues " . 🤙
