Metal God indeed! Nothing beats Priest and Halford.
I concur John! Thanks for watching again my dude! 😊
Turbo Lover wasn't necessarily one of the songs higher on the staff. So he can sing more of it from his chest
He’s doing a fantastic job 💪😊
Sometimes the mid stuff is harder to adjust than the extremes.
But even in the high stuff he mixed it with chest resonance
The new album sounds just as good! He's done such a good job of preserving his voice.
Genuinely at times it’s shocking! Thanks for watching my dude! 😊
I saw Judas Priest in Glasgow back in March and I can definitely confirm he's still got it. Also Biff Byford of Saxon has still got it as well and they're both in their early 70s.
I was there too...and Birmingham the week after...and I can confirm that yes, theyve definitely still got it!!!
I saw Saxon earlier this year, and Biff Byford was hitting high notes like it was nothing. He still sounds amazing!
Hi from Falkirk. I was at that gig in London and I'm visible in the front row. This is a good performance but please please please listen to Blood Red Skies from the same gig. His voice is impeccable.
Then listen to the new album Invincible Shield. His voice is even more amazing. Go on, I dare you. Then get back to me.
Their brand new album came out on March 8th and while it’s a studio album and there can be trickery, Halford sounds amazing! The album and the songs are amazing. Especially knowing Rob was 72 during the recording!
Check out Serpent and the King or Trial By Fire or title track Invincible Shield. Great songs from a band cranking out metal for 50 plus years!
I’ll check it out! Thanks for watching my dude! 😊
He still sounds pretty good too. 72 years old and still kicking ass. :D
He’s so impressive! Thanks for watching my dude 😊
@@SoulSingerDiscovers He really is and of course my dudette. :D
Seen, Judas Priest a month ago. Rob hasn't missed a beat. Sounded great! 🤘
What a legend! Thanks for watching my dude! 😊
Heaviest song ever written about rough gay sex. When it was released Rob wasn’t out yet.
I enjoy songs about rough gay sex 😂 What a punk thing to do, in the situation. Thanks for watching my dude! 😊
If Robs voice haven’t aged well I don’t know who’s has….. check out Giants in the Sky from the latest album. Insane.
He’s honestly aged fantastically as a vocalist. Thanks for watching my dude 😊
I could listen to your accent every day. I love it.
Im so glad! Thanks for watching my dude! 😊
The Song is from 1986 Album : Turbo Lover check up next Judas Priest : Blood Red Skies but as a live Version
I think only good things of Rob Halford. I promise.
The one thing I don't like so much about later JP live performances is that Halford tends to cut phrases short and change the vibe of the songs quite a bit. I don't blame him though. I guess it would be boring to perform the same songs in the same way for 30-40 years. :D
I should think so Ronnie 😂 yeah I can imagine he’ll be mixing it up for himself but I can see why that would be a shame. Thanks for watching my dude 💪😊
Rob havin fun there with his vocals not usually how he sings Turbo Lover
FABULOUS!
Halford has had ups and downs vocally over the years. He might be in better shape now than he was here.
A touch of evil live could be a better example of his vocal range in more recent times
i will see them in 8 days in Amsterdam , they are celebrating 55 years this year
I am so jealous!! Have an amazing time my dude 😊

Judas Priest are a awesome band. And this song is also as a studioversion in a deeper voice. Saw them this year live again and Rob's voice is still great even the higher parts are not the best some thimes but thats normal I think for a man in his 70. He is still agreat singer.
I think if I sound like Rob in my 40s I’d be happy 😆 he’s a complete legend. Thanks for watching my dude 😊
I saw Judas Priest a couple of days ago at Sweden rock festival, and Rob still sounds great! 👍
Absolute magic. Great vocals as always from Rob and their guitar sound is as good as it gets, in this style of music.
Saw priest in May 2024 at welcome to rockville in Daytona Beach Florida and Halford absolutely crushed it.
Must have been amazing! 🤩
He still sounds great at 73 metal god indeed
Rob is the Metal God for a reason!!! Check out their latest album, it's INCREDIBLE
I will do! Thank you for watching my dude 😊
Rob used to do drugs and drink, especially after a relationship of his ended badly. But since about 1980 he's been completely sober. That's why his voice is still as powerful as it is
No offence to Guns n' Roses and Bon Jovi, they're iconic, but neither of their singers can even SING at this point. And those bands are younger than Priest is. Rob Halford is 10 years older than both Axl Rose and Jon Bon Jovi and his vocals still hold up to this day.
Clearly the metal god. I'd die for Priest
You need to react to victims of changes in this same show 🔥
Will do 😊💪
I'm sure he's lost some but it's hard to tell. His style has changed some but I actually think he's as good or better
Yeah Im sure there has been a little drop off but man, what a fabulous amount to keep. Thanks for watching my dude! 😊
well... he IS the Metal God.. so... ya know.
He really is! 💪😎
Who are your top five metal vocalists?
This is so hard but here is my top five today but it might change 😂
5. Einar Solberg
4. Devin Townsend
3. King Diamond
2. Rob Halford
1. Dio (is god)
He still has it at 79 but this song was written in heyday of MTV and was a sellout album so his vocals are not displayed in the least seeing this commercial track is garbage
I have no doubt he’s an absolute beast! I quite like this bit of course it’s not for everyone. Thanks for watching my dude 😊
He never had it...
Respectfully, I disagree
From '86 'til now, Rob & Judas' Turbo still kicks into overdrive! , delivering with powers that sound and feel the same, and so I thank you for bringing this live video to us in 2024! Rock on, Sco'ish lady! 🤘
He’s honestly astonishing! Thank you for watching my dude 😊💪
It is now 12 years later, and Rob has still got it ! Saw Priest on March 19th at Birmingham and they were magnificent !! New album is really great - Invincible Shield go check it out !
Same, I was there too, absolutely melted the arena with the three 'No!'s' at the end of Victim Of Changes, you didn't hear you felt it and I was at the back of the arena lol
2024 came out the new Album of Judas Priest Rob Halford is just over 70 years old
Thumbs up for choosing version from this concert,please do Blood Red Skies,from this same Concert,a lovely song with unusual "drum tempo".
Another great singer that still sounds great is Dave Vanian of the Punk/Goth band "The Damned". He's been their singer for 48 years and still hits the high notes as they are touring North America right now and the fan videos I'm seen are impressive. A band in their 60's that are still tight, brilliant and obviously still love playing songs for the fans they have played hundreds of times before. Seeing them next week and am totaly excited to see living legends!!!
'Turbo Lover' is one of Judas Priest's more commercial songs... From their 'Turbo' album in 1986, it was the closest Priest came to becoming an 80's 'hair band'... It was the year Bon Jovi and Europe were taking off commercially... Motley Crue, Dokken and Kiss (non-makeup era) were peaking... ZZ Top had a new synthesizer-heavy sound; so did Rush... I guess Judas Priest wanted to get to that next level of popularity.
There were setbacks - Rob Halford attempted suicide after years of struggling w/ addictions in '86 and ended up in the hospital & rehab ("I hit the wall severely..." Halford later recalled) ... Thankfully, Halford quit drinking and returned to the band sober to record the 'Turbo' album...
Initially, it was supposed to be called 'Twin Turbos' w/ 2 discs - 1 for the commercial songs, 1 for the heavy metal songs... but their record label wouldn't go for it. So, the commercial disc 'Turbo' was slated for release first in '86... the second metal disc would be recorded and released in 1988 titled 'Ram it down'... A live record 'Priest Live' was released in between in 1987.
For the 'Turbo' album, guitarists Glenn Tipton and K.K. Downing added synthesizers and effects to their guitars and used a drum machine for quite a few tracks - apparently, then-drummer Dave Holland was not in the best shape health-wise and wasn't used extensively in the studio for both records... Producer Tom Allom recalled that Rob Halford's voice was 'unreal' and it got even better in the studio after he had quit drinking... The songs on 'Turbo' were not as menacing as past Priest albums and Halford was even singing about relationships on the songs - 'Out in the cold' ... 'Locked in' ... They even got an offer to contribute the song 'Reckless' to the 'Top Gun' movie soundtrack, but they declined. They regretted that decision; the movie 'Top Gun' and it's soundtrack became a massive hit and Priest had missed an opportunity...
Despite Priest's popularity in the 80's, 'Turbo' only went gold (half million copies sold) in the US, charted at #17 (#33 in the UK) and did not see the platinum+ sales numbers of other 80's bands like Def Leppard, Whitesnake, Guns N' Roses, Bon Jovi, Aerosmith, Tesla, etc.
Judas Priest was still playing arenas on tour and filmed a Dallas, Texas show for the 'Priest live' concert video & live album.
In 1988, Judas Priest returned to their heavy metal roots on 'Ram it down' ... and it was barely promoted by their record label (1 single - a cover of Chuck Berry's "Johnny B. Goode") and still sold gold... but Dave Holland (drums) quit after the tour... That led into Judas Priest being sued in Nevada for allegedly inspiring a grisly double s-ui-cide pact and going on trial in 1990... After they were acquitted, they released their angriest album 'Painkiller' in '90 w/ Scott Travis (drums) joining and were back on tour in 1991.
Thanks for such an amazing comment! And taking the time to fire me some cool facts. Thanks for watching my dude! 😊
He does amazing compared to so many younger out there now in other genres especially who struggle live. So many things to consider when you watch a live performance. Like how long have they been touring at this point and how many shows in. Is this song early in the set list so? Has his voice loosened up and found his mark vocally and has the sound man tweaked the board for the venue with all those people inside after set up and rehearsals were done empty. He and the band still give you what you paid and came to see!
The song is great but for vocal impression/analysis it's boring. I recommend you to listen to "Dreamer Deceiver/Deceiver" (it's actually one song in two; only the studio version please! - Rob is absolute vocal genius there), Epitaph (young Rob doing some crazy vocals) and may be Blood Red Skies from the same 2012 show (old Rob doing some crazy vocals again!). And the song Desert Plains (only the live version from 1982 show 'cause it's unique) to the dessert.
Will do! Thanks for watching my dude! 😊
Rob is also also a cancer survivor
I did not know that! You wouldn’t know looking at him. What an incredible person 💪
100% on intonation ... I try be so aware of what vowel to use depending on what range im in...I just too avoid E...I hate that vowel. Tate , halford and Kiske were my go tos on what i needed to know
Oh Im with you on the old E vowels in the higher register! They are a real PITA. Thanks for watching my dude! 😊
I saw Priest last year in I can tell you that he can still reach those high notes. This song on the album doesn't have very high notes either. In fact, that album Turbo as a whole is probably not one of their best work. You should check them out in Wacken in 2017. They have a live dvd/album of that concert and it's a fantastic performance.
Ill check it out! He really is a machine it’s so impressive. Thanks for watching my dude! 😊
Rob halford is God metal!!, You should listen to the song "A Toch Evil" cd versiónAnd get ready for your head to explode
I’ll check it out! Thanks for watching my dude! 😊
That's the metal God for you, in my opinion metal is not about the vocal quality always its about the people, and Rob is one of the best people in the industry and would pay money to see him live even if he was using a megaphone to sing.
P.S. I know I've asked before but I want to bring you attention to one of my favorite bands "Rotting Christ", they just released their 14th album celebrating 35 years of existence. My favorite song of theirs is "Athanatoi Este" and i would love it if you could react to it but feel free to choose something else
He really is astonishing. I have Rotting Christ on my list, I will get to them eventually. I dont think I have this song down though, but I’ll make sure I do. Thanks for watching my dude! 😊
Saw them live earlier this year, and I was impressed by the intelligent way he's looking after his voice now he's in his 70s. He was still hitting the high notes beautifully, but using technology to sustain them so he didn't have to. (He wasn't hiding it, he was lowering the mic when he finished singing, so I don't consider that a 'cheat'.) There were also some rearrangements so guitars took some of the less important high notes. It just made sense, and it was a fantastic performance.
Yeah there’s absolutely nothing wrong with adapting over time and this is an amazing example of that! i would have loved to have seen it. Thanks for watching my dude! 😊
Turbo LoveR
for a taste of one of Rob's duets outside Judas Priest - Bad Penny's "Push Comes to Shove" is pretty damn solid... . and for fun, he just did a duet with Dolly Parton on her new album .
Aw Dolly! What a wonderful combo. Thanks for watching my dude! 😊
I saw Judas priest at Leeds arena in March,& he still sounds fantastic vocally,+the whole band were still amazing.
Reviews on Priest/Halford are all over place . Some say Rob has lost it and they are just a cover band without KK and Glen. Others think they are still as good as ever. Im in the cover band group. Watching the RnR hall fame performance with KK was fantastic!. Rob and Ian need to pull their heads out their butts and bring him back! I watched alot of videos from the last tour. There were songs Rob nailed and some 🤮. Even seen songs he started terrible and half way through he was perfect.
For me without KK im not going to see them live. But im older also and don't care much for crowds anymore 😂. The last 2 albums have sounded good its to bad no radio stations play new music from older bands.
I had the exact same reservations about hearing Rob at this stage in his career as Priest was a staple, along with Metallica Megadeth Slayer Scorpions Maiden and so on, of my teenage years. Contrary to popular belief, I loved the album Turbo and this song. Thankfully it was very pleasing to hear. 🤘🏻🔥💥🙏🏻💯
He’s really kept hold of his voice and it’s so inspiring to see. I think he’s my favourite metal singer. Thanks for watching Ssttteeeeveve!!! 😂💜✨
Such a goofy song. God help me, I love it so.
SAME :P Thanks for watching my dude! 😊
Invincible Shield is a wicked new album they put out this year, his voice sounds even better. Thank you for this reaction and your input you're awesome
You picked a song that doesn't really have him stay in that upper register....Even more recent live shows he blows the roof off the show with his high screams....still.
As much as Ozzy is a legend. He's completely lost his voice, the awful lufestyle clearly didnt help.
Got to finally see Judas Priest 2 yrs ago. Been a fan since I was 12. Holy Ballz!!!!! Rob sounds absolutely incredible!!!!💙💙🤘🤘
Love you channel!!!!
Thank you Paul! I am very envious, I would love to go and see them. Thanks for watching my dude! 😊
I love way the Scottish pronounce their words,it's a 🤔 accent.. more so than a British one...
Love your accent. Helps me work on my accents for DnD being the dm. 🤘
Rob still sounds great. Live he often hits the big notes but uses effects to keep it going on longer (perfectly bloody reasonable if you ask me). It is interesting to hear your views on singers and how they compare through the years.
When I was young (a long long time ago😂) I used to play my metal records slightly louder than was totally neccessary leading to my auld man coming into my room with the gentle admonition of "turn that bloody noise down"😂 quite a lot. Only twice did he come in to make comments about how much he liked the voice of the singers (my dad was an old style crooner who did great Matt Munro/Bing Croby style vocals) and those 2 singers were Rob Halford ("bloody hell, he has some range" if I remember the quote) and a certain Ronnie James Dio ("now that boy can sing" was I think the comment).
It made me so happy to hear my dad (who I knew was a good singer) telling me what I liked wasn't all "noise".
Can I make a wee suggestion for a future video (I am not a paid member so if that puts me right down a list I am OK). Howabout doing 2 videos back to back. Firstly Ronnie Dio And The Red Caps doing "An Angel Is Missing" from away back in 1961 (ruclips.net/video/ew8MUT00aK0/видео.html) and then Black Sabbath doing "Bible Back" at Wacken in 2009 (ruclips.net/video/kSWsNsmS7cw/видео.html) the year before Ronie sadly died. So nearly 50 years apart.
As a massive fan of Dio I would love to hear your thoughts on the differeing styles of vocals between the 2 as well as how his voice changed. I appreciate if it is not possible but it would for me be great to hear a singer like yourself discuss the differences.
As always great video. All the best to you.
I love this little tale about yer ole Da. Those are the little interactions around music that make it so magical. It really is a joy to me that those would be the two singers that yer Da would comment on. I will add that 2 for 1 to them list. As I always say, I might not get to it quickly, but I will get to it! Thanks for watching my dude! 😊
@@SoulSingerDiscovers Thank you for your kind words. I also thank you for putting my suggestion on your list. It is most appreciated. Take care and all the best.
You can do Rob all day every day and I will be here.
He’s the man 😊💪
Well, Crapbaskets! This is My Favorite Judas Priest song! I have suggested it many times! I can actually sing this one! I karaoke it for My Wife quite a bit! Rob is definitely top five! You made My day! Wow! Keep up the great work My Fine Scottish Lady! ❤❤❤
Aw fantastic! I have 100% seen you asking for it before. So glad you enjoyed it. Hope you’re good my dude 💜💜💜
@@SoulSingerDiscovers I am so good now, My Fine Scottish Lady! Someday I hope to sing this song for You! Also, Kentucky accents and Scottish accents are surprisingly similar! Lol! I will always be, Your Dude!
🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻METAL GODS🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻
Love the sign on the top of the bookcase
It’s my fav! Thanks for watching my dude! 😊
One of the best songs to hear Rob excel in his lower register is 'Worth Fighting For'. It's a beautifully modulated vocal performance from a mature artist.
I’ll check it out! Thank you for watching my dude 😊
I'd like you to react to Highlander (The One) by Lost Horizon and Dozing Green by Dir en Grey (preferably live)
I’ll check it out
They have a new album out. I highly recommend checking out the first single, “Panic Attack.”
I will do, thanks for watching my dude 😊
To this day people smash the 'Turbo' record as being Priest's worst. But as you can see here, whenever they bust out this song the crowd goes nuts for it.
I don't care for Locked in or turbo lover but the rest of the album is good. Wild nights hot and crazy days great party song.
Rock on, Melisa. 🤘😎👍
You don't know what you're talking about. In fact, Rob lost his voice a long time ago. On the studio album, you can hear a processed voice. Just watch the latest live performances of Painkiller, recorded by fans on the phone, and you can hear Rob Halford wheezing tragically. I'm a big fan of JP, but let's not make propaganda. You can't cheat old age.
You might not be able to cheat old age but Rob is doing just fine. Also, I have been a singer for twenty years and I have a music masters. I am the definition of ‘knows what they are talking about’, but don’t let that get in the way of your lil tantrum because you aren’t capable 💋
I saw them live last week. Yes they used some backing tracks for the vocals, but most of the time it was Rob singing. I’d say he still got it
Definitely one of the greatest in metal. Have you ever listened to another ageless rock singer by the name of Glenn Hughes? He's a soulful vocalist that has blended blues, funk, soul, and metal into his catalog and can still sing like he did in his 30's. He's in his 70's and is one of my favs but unfortunately no one ever covers him which is a shame. Great video.
Rob has been clean and sober since 1986
What a guy 💪😊
metal gods
Amen
Love Priest,love Halford. Metal Gods 4ever
I concur 😊💪
Nobody like him as a singer and as a man. An example to everybody
