As a soldier who fought in Iraq in the early 2000's, this song always hits me so hard, every drum beat is a bullet or bomb burst that was fired from a politician's gun, but I pulled the trigger. Powerful message, we feed the war pigs every day.
I was in Iraq in the early 90’s and I was listening to Bob Marley , til this day every time I here Bob I zone out back to being there , so I feel what you are saying and indeed when I came across this song , the message grabbed me and it’s just such a powerful song in so many ways , ✌🏾🙏🏾

i was really worried he'd focus on the video like half the reactors do. I mean no disrespect to the creator of that fanmade video, but im starting to resent it, because people end up getting wrapped up in that. But this guy pays good attention to lyrics and instrumentation. This is a fantastic reaction. He clearly loves good music.
Sabbath is badass...but let's make sure we mention Led Zep and Deep Purple along with them when we are talking about "creating the genre". All the old timers recognized that as truth. It was these three, and there massive collective talents all hitting, that together truly launched it off.
I think this genre of music evolved but sabbath owned it . Dazed and Confused came before this and can be described as the same genre same with Voodoo Child . If you dive into the Yardbirds , they had some pretty dark and bleak stuff like Still I'm sad . It's not like flicking a switch there is an evolution with a host of influences . Judas Priest took the blues out of metal and it can be argued they "created" pure metal but it was an evolution .
@Chern69 Good point! It all comes back to black music no matter how you look at it. When the blues, jazz and gospel started getting attention from the masses, NO genre of popular music was ever the same afterwards. Even the whitest country artists play blues licks and chord progressions all the time.
I love the fact that you actually paid attention to the lyrics. Too many reaction videos the people don't pay attention to the lyrics. Thank you. Your awesome.
These guys were born just after the end of WW2 in Birmingham. It was not a pleasant experience in the working class parts of England in the post war period. It certainly spawned many great rock bands though, and I mean the UK as a whole in the 60’s and 70’s. Black Sabbath’s first five albums are amazing. Can’t go wrong with anything from them.
@Abracadabra 303 it’s a certified classic. I meant to say the first six albums they released are just amazing. You see the progression of the band across those records. And again, all of them considered classics in the Hard Rock world.
It's soooo frickin' awesome to watch your face as experience music that I (and everyone else) love! Black Sabbath was so ahead of their time-best guitar riffs ever.
Black Sabbath is the original heavy metal band. Ozzy's vocals and lyrics are profound. The band is hard as it gets and set the mold for metal. Ck out ironman🤘
This song was written by Terry "Geezer" Butler, including the lyrics. Geezer wrote all their lyrics, not Ozzy. Originally, this song had nothing to do with war. It was about satanic cults, and how stupid they are. It was originally called "Wirpugers day ( I'm close on the name, but wrong), which Butler said is like Christmas for satanists. (It's a bad word in England). Butler said the record company made him change the title of the song or they wouldn't allow it on the album. True story.
I really like your chill demeanor. BS was the group that introduced me to heavy metal in the 70s. They were my gateway to Zeppelin, Pink Floyd and so many other great bands from that era.
For me Stones were the first in 1965...I was 5. Next came Beatles then my favorite Zeppelin!! Pink Floyd came next...then Sabbath and Rush. God do I miss the 70s!
When you said, "That's guitars heavy", and sat back to relax? I thought to myself, "You'll be sitting back up real quick!" One very true song isn't it? Great little pick-up to my day when I check your channel out. Must get out harvest my beans! No more RUclips for me!! lol
This song was first performed in 1969 live. It blew the audience away! This was a protest of the Vietnam war and all wars started by evil politicians all over the world. We have to rid the world of evil to live in peace.👍
yes brother....this track is nearly 50 years old and the lyrics are still on point..vibe with it.....its a peace anthem....smash the war pigs and make them pay!!!
Music back in the day was filled with a “Push and Pull” of emotions. Tension. and beauty that only people playing instruments can understand. Heaven as you said ❤️
Love your reaction to "War Pigs" and your general appreciation of music. For sure you've heard "Iron Man" or "Paranoid" by Black Sabbath. You will recognize those tracks once your hear them. Bands such as Black Sabbath, Led Zepplin and Deep Purple we're the first blues rock bands which layed the foundation for heavy metal... The first couple of albums by Black Sabbath are completely off the hook. Timeless masterpieces. Remember to check out "Child in Time" by Deep Purple. You'll love it... Love, peace and respect from Berlin!
Yep. First name was Polka tulka blues band (or something like that🤔), then name was The Earth. And finally BLACK SABBATH🤘🤘 Black Sabbath was taken from old horror movie.
@@thelatenightgrind4511 Hope you have the LP & thx for the message. It's a great song & the best of the anti-war pieces ever. LOVINGLY SIGNED, A PROUD 🇺🇸🦌💋
Great reaction man. This song is one of my favorite songs of all time, both for the music and the lyrics. One of the greatest anti war songs ever made. Please watch/react to Black Sabbath War Pigs live in Paris 1969. The energy of the live performance of this song is something to see. You will gain an even greater appreciation of this band.
Black Sabbath were a GREAT band fronted by legendary Ozzy. Saw them live here in Canada and Ozzy solo twice. The lyrics to this are so RIGHT ON! ♥️🎼🎶🎵🇨🇦
@@kendixon7118 yep, War Pigs came out on the Paranoid album in 1970. That video is pretty recent, I don't know who made it but they did in astonishingly good job.
Yeah, I think the video was made to go with the song in a movie or game at some point MUCH later. I swear I think I first saw it on TV maybe in the late 90s or 00s? It's great work, but after listening to Sabbath for SO many years before that I don't like it for the song. Anyway, great reaction & glad you didn't get distracted by the vid. Enjoy the Sabbath rabbit hole! 🙂
When I was in the Army back in 1980 I was a Machine gunner carrying the M-60 machine gun affectionately known as the pig or the hog.Everytime we we went out I would write "War Pig"on the guns receiver in chalk.Nothing rocked like sending a 250 round belt of tracer down range.It looked like a laser pointer at night.Barrel would be glowing white hot.You do know thats Ozzie Osbourne singing dont you?
Back in the late 1960's and early 1970's when I was in high school, Black Sabbath and Led Zeppelin were the two top groups for listening to on my 'getting ready to play sports' cassette tape. Great breakdown of the song.
I'm 64 and was mostly raised by my grandpop all he listened to was blues and elvis, he probably rolled over in he grave when I took to 60's and 70's rock n roll. And to think if back then when the media tried to put a stop to rock n roll we would have never had it. Music changes with time they said , im still listening to the old rock n roll. Love your reactions brother.
You can see how, many people you meet in this world doesn't have the passion you have for a certain type of music or song because they simply have never heard it, sharing Music is one of the most noble things you can do to be social and share love w your fellow human being, this young man certainly appreciates Music. Subscribed. Sabbath are a very important group in all Music.
right on brother i've been fucking with them for over 40yrs and no signs of stopping now! iconic is probably the best way i could describe this band to someone who hasn't had the pleasure. "The Wizard" would be the next logical step in the progression! enjoy.
My dad's birthday (not in 1979 tho) is 9/18 so that's how I remember when Jimi died. Janis Joplin died on my 3rd birthday. Sad connections, but helps an old chick remember. ✌️
This is one of the most profound songs ever made and the video is also a work of art. Crazy how it's still relevant in a lot of ways. You know the lead singer is Ozzy Osbourne, right?
I didn’t know until someone pointed it out to me , I was shocked lol, I know Ozzy from the show with his family , didn’t know while I was reacting, I’m still in shock lol
Saw Black Sabbath live back in the late 70's. They were unreal. Like those tee shirts say " I may be old but I've seen all the great bands" lol. Take care man.
I remember being stoned on mescaline listening to this many years ago. I loved it then and I love it now. Music today sucks and the so called musicians can't play instruments. The past was better.
Black Sabbath never got the recognition for their anti-war-establishment-drug songs back in the day. I don’t think they got the credit they deserved for those sentiments that we heard since and hear now in the Heavy Rock genre. Put Children of the Grave, Hand of Doom, and Sabbaths Love Song to Weed, Sweet Leaf on your play list. If you indulge, definitely enjoy with a side of sweet leaf
Oh yeah, this came out in 1970, when I was ten years old, and I have the album (Paranoid) and could not guess how many times I have listened to it. You seem to really appreciate 'significant' songs, where the message is usually a protest against some injustice or another. Therefore, I have a request. Could you please do a brief check on what happened at Kent State University on May 4th, 1970, and then listen to the song Neil Young wrote when he heard the news over the radio. Story goes, he grabbed his guitar, took a walk in the woods for a couple of hours, came back, called up the guys in the band and told them to book a studio right away, he had a song they had to do. It came out very soon after, and it is called Ohio by Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young. Please take a listen, and try not to let your blood boil.
You can't go wrong with this song. It's truly one of the best rock songs, with a very profound meaning, meaning ever made. I'm a new sub. I'm off to see your CCR review.
For a great guitar riff try "Into the Void", For super innovative drums try "Children of the Grave" and to try out their other great singer Ronnie James Dio try "Heaven and Hell"
When I hear a song with, 2 or 3 rhythm in it that are so good it could be a hit on its on. I know it's world class. Sabbath has it in every fucking song!
sukie584 I sit up and look that direction but really I’m just focusing harder on what’s being said , I know it looks lol like I’m seeing the vids but really just tuned in and for some reason I turn that direction 😀
After you listen to Black Sabbath there is no going back brother. War Pigs is still if not more relevant today than back when it was originally released , well it was never officially released. Just the fact that you are giving this a listen I subscribed. Keep Rocking on 2021.
Listening to this song since I was a kid makes me hate this video. I had my own interpretation which was ten times better than that lame video lol. In the end good defeats evil.
Yes exactly..I feel it distracts from the awesomeness of the cool sounds and my vision was much better also..some songs should just be listened to...sometimes even with your eyes closed 😑 lol
As a soldier who fought in Iraq in the early 2000's, this song always hits me so hard, every drum beat is a bullet or bomb burst that was fired from a politician's gun, but I pulled the trigger. Powerful message, we feed the war pigs every day.

This song is foundational in its composition and performance level. Apart from the song, the video is a high art accomplishment.
Absolutely with you. I love this dude.
That live video from 70, I think, was all business
Early heavy metal with a heavy message from our near past that still resonates sadly today
True
It don't get much earlier.
Ozzy Osbourne and Black Sabbath started their own genre of music, and this number shows how they did it.
Wrong, the band Coven started that genre. Jinx Dawson
@@TheAxzom And went nowhere. Sabbath led the charge.

You seem to really appreciate 'significant' songs, where the message is usually a protest against some injustice or another. Therefore, I have a request. Could you please do a brief check on what happened at Kent State University on May 4th, 1970, and then listen to the song Neil Young wrote when he heard the news over the radio. Story goes, he grabbed his guitar, took a walk in the woods for a couple of hours, came back, called up the guys in the band and told them to book a studio right away, he had a song they had to do. It came out very soon after, and it is called Ohio by Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young. Please take a listen, and try not to let your blood boil.
10.09 "the lyrics, the singer on top of that music....i'm just blown away..."
I think this song gives a whole new perspective to those who have never been military. Welcome to our world.
First in, last out.
Your reaction is on point.
What can be said Ozzy is The Prince of Darkness...Been to a few Ozzy concerts..
Released in 1970...!
Wait, that’s Ozzy Osborne!
@@abracadabra3033 yes, *grins* to me his voice is immediately recognizable.
Tracy Recycle Hippie Chick wow, I always knew of his name and the show he had with family , but damn he just shocked the hell out of me
@@abracadabra3033 Well, ya. He's the Prince of Darkness... 😈
Glad you enjoyed it! I grew up listening to these guys. Hope you enjoy the rest of their music, they were awesome!
the drummer and guitarist were fighting for your attention. that's a perfect way to explain it
I ain’t going to war for a shit talkin president - Willie d
Best anti-war song ever
You can't go wrong with this song. It's truly one of the best rock songs, with a very profound meaning, meaning ever made. I'm a new sub. I'm off to see your CCR review.
“I definitely want to hear what they got to say” well don’t worry Black Sabbath is gonna tell you exactly what they’re thinking...
🔥🔥🔥
For a great guitar riff try "Into the Void", For super innovative drums try "Children of the Grave" and to try out their other great singer Ronnie James Dio try "Heaven and Hell"
Gotcha , definitely
Cant go wrong with sabbath. They set the standard that every metal band has been since
Man I love this channel. Nothing extra to your reaction, just you keeping it real.
I'm glad you did not let yourself get too distracted by that fan made video. I could tell you were getting off on those lyrics.
When I hear a song with, 2 or 3 rhythm in it that are so good it could be a hit on its on. I know it's world class. Sabbath has it in every fucking song!
Second time here. Saw Sabbath in February 1974 in Chicago. Great band. Fantastic show.
Every commentator watches this video. This song must be listened to only, this video subtracts from song, imo
I cringe every time I see someone react to that video ....so many better options .
Totally agree
True, this fanvid is a distraction, but to to Abracadabra's credit he didn't seem to even be paying much attention to the vid as opposed to the music.
The video has nothing to do with the song. it was made by a fan.
I didn’t react to the video, I reacted to the song
Yes, I know. I was just pointing it out when I thought I saw you looking at it .
sukie584 I sit up and look that direction but really I’m just focusing harder on what’s being said , I know it looks lol like I’m seeing the vids but really just tuned in and for some reason I turn that direction 😀
Abracadabra 303 you have great insight! I love your reactions.. thank you!
This is the band that started metal.....This was my favorite Thank you
After you listen to Black Sabbath there is no going back brother. War Pigs is still if not more relevant today than back when it was originally released , well it was never officially released. Just the fact that you are giving this a listen I subscribed. Keep Rocking on 2021.
Stick to the early stuff with Ozzy at first
Listening to this song since I was a kid makes me hate this video. I had my own interpretation which was ten times better than that lame video lol. In the end good defeats evil.
I was focused on the music
So your interpretation is the only valid one? Hater. Nice video
My bad thought you were talkin bout my man, yea the song needs no visuals
@@b50262 thank you
Yes exactly..I feel it distracts from the awesomeness of the cool sounds and my vision was much better also..some songs should just be listened to...sometimes even with your eyes closed 😑 lol
Yup. Sabbath. Electric Funeral and Fairies Wear Boots. Paranoid is an awesome album.
I like his beard, the location he chose to film in, his energy is nice.
Brother I know how you feel. The first time I heard Warpigs, it blew my mind. The lyrics are deep and truthful it's mindblowing.
