    Perhaps the perfect Black Sabbath song. Tony is a riff machine, Geezer's lyrics are bonkers, Bill plays like a madman, and Ozzy sounds like he just took every drug he could lay his hands on (which he probably did).

      The real joke was the way they cut off the prior song and then titled it "Don't start (too late)". You have to hear it on vinyl to really get the joke. There will always be a pause with individually titled songs digitally played together.

      One of their few where it just really focuses on a love trip in a positive light. The only other one I know of in the Ozzy era would be one of my Top 5 Sabbath Favs: “Sabba Cadabra”.
      On the negative love trip, or “love gone wrong” side of the spectrum we’ve got: “Warning”, “Paranoid”, “Dirty Women”.. not a single dud in either group, and an interesting perspective coming from such a heavy band.

    Dudes back in the 70s when I was in the 5th grade. Teacher on last day of school said we could bring games an album or whatever. It was a free day. I grabbed my sister’s Black Sabbath album we sold our souls for rock n roll. Me and Thomas put it on and cranked it. The teacher told us to turn it down and she brought us over some headphones. We just jammed that whole album. 🤘 see back then and rolling into the 80s we were so misunderstood. They made fun of our music. Called it noise devils music extra. Even at a young age like that I knew the power of rock n roll. We didn’t care what people thought. Rock and metal gave us everything musically , lyrically and every other sense that could be touched by music. I Already started growing my hair out by 5 th grade. I’m now 57 and still have long hair and rock out every day. I dig y’all reactions to stuff I grew up on in real time. There’s so much more for you guys to explore. Glad that y’all go deep into a bands catalog. Catch you on the next one. I’m subscribing today👊

    With all of the zillions of great heavy Sabbath riffs, I sometimes think this acoustic outro at the end is the best thing they ever recorded! Definitely for me the best Ozzie vocal I ever heard as well! Sabotage, a highly underrated album. Their earlier stuff was phenomenal, but in my opinion they were at their creative peak for Sabotage.

  • @alienlifeform7490
    @alienlifeform7490 Месяц назад +4

    Music, in its truest and fullest sense, is a spiritual experience. This is why music and sound are healing. When a song or any musical composition is expressed in its most perfect way, the audience, like yourselves, are pulled right into the performance. You might fight it, because it's "dangerous" territory. First time listeners, like yourselves, and myself as well, can find it difficult to be completely pulled in. If we are not familiar with a song, or the way it's structured, it's normal to feel, almost, off balance, but the vibe in the music keeps pulling you back and, sooner or later, you give in. It's kind of like being saved. That experience of the song is like an awakening and it just feels so good to accept and trust it. I so enjoy your reactions. Thank you!

What a Thrill to shake their hands and get pictures and autographs.. Something I’ll cherish forever.. Thank you for This Reaction, a Favorite of mine along with their first Debut Album..
