    Hearing this song makes me go into a state of trance. I get thrown into a world full of mythical creatures and legendary events. You ride a wave upon a wave of musical joy , that your ears start to scream from joy , everything is so perfectly turned into 11, the wonderful relentless drumming, the howling of the vocals , and the magical riff that the Wizard of Page came up with. He actually struggled to get the solo to be done the way he wanted it, and he stopped the recording and went for a walk, then came back and did it in one take !!!! . PURE ENERGY ! Thanks Jimmy !!!

    Lyric videos that dont show the lyrics ahead of them being sung are one of the things people make that just shouldn't exist.
    They account for 95+% of youtube lyrics videos. It's bizzare.
