I love how Halford is totally listening and engaged even when the focus is on Sammy. He cares!
That's because he's one of the intelligent "rock" or metal stars and to be fair, there are quite a lot. They get a bad rep because of morons such as Liam Gallagher, who really is a thick piece of shit. But the older generation of rock stars had brains to match their on-stage bravado and showmanship. You could have a conversation with the likes of Lemmy, Steven Tyler, Phil Lynott, Dave Mustaine and so on. Certain others, you can tell their minds are far away if the spotlight is not on them. They don't care about anyone else.
MooseyFate yeah, Sammy seemed to be somewhat disconnected and ambivalent for the most part.
@@Jackalope40 I think he got into it the further along it went but in the early stages he did look a bit lost. Probably outside his comfort zone.
English gentleman in leather!
He's in love...❤️❤️❤️
Halford seems like such an engaging person. He's a legend
Had the opportunity to meet Rob in a luggage turnstile at Burbank, Ca.
He was transferring flights and was in a rush but still took to a few moments to talk to a starstruck fan like me.
Couldn't have been a cooler/friendlier guy.
What year?
I met him in 76 when he had hair. :)
Lucky guy man
I used to work at the rental cars in the Burbank Airport (hometown). What year was that? Btw, I met guitarist George Lynch, who rented a car from me.
"i'm irish and italian, like half of americans" i love ya sammy. cheers from canada.
With a name,like Hagar it sounds Scandinavian
@@elcabezon5487 Na He isn't a Hagerson. It sounds american.
In fact the biggest bloodline in the USA is German.
**looks at my black skin**
I knew I was Irish
Jeff I'm little Irish and bunch of other mix buy I also loved triumph in my top 10 cheers from chitown
Sammy Hagar and Rob Halford, I didn’t know I needed that awesomeness.
Rock on
No kidding. Didn’t go looking for this but totally enjoyed it!
The ending of the vid was also worth the wait. The spiritual part helped me realize that I can make it through some tough times by focusing on the higher power. Dealing with caregiving for an elderly parent, and a friend of theirs trying to steal my estate, is hard. Great inspiration, & message, at the end of the video, to focus on the higher power. And the funny laughs, and "great times" they shared were fun, on the way to the end. Well worth watching, all the way through.
Sammy is cool, but he he's got that, "I got better shit do" look on his face.
I love how English Rob Halford still sounds. He sounds like the kind of geezer who offers you a pint at the pub. "How are ye mate, how's the missus?"
Thats brummies accent .
RastaSaiyaman Brummies, like the original and best Sabbath line-up.
And his has that lovely british sense of humour.
And he Lives in Arizona parts of the year
He's from West Bromwich. Proper Midlander.
Note the body language here. Rob is turned with full attention on Graham and Sammy, he is 100% present and just absolutely loving this whole experience, he loves to just sit and talk with people
Rob is FTM
I could listen to Rob talk all day.
Love him more and more each day! 🤘💋
Evidently, so does he! Lol!
Nah, been a fan of his for 40 years! Great to hear him reminisce like that!
He should do shipping forecasts
I still think "Sad Wings of Destiny" is one of the coolest album titles ever !!!
My favorite Priest album
Wore out the cassette in my 73 Maverick.
Not many can hit the vocal ranges Rob did on that album.
That album was a masterpiece
They were always great with titles
Sin after sin is my favourite
Rob Halford just complimented James Hetfield. This is next level compliment. One Metal god to another.
Just shows the man.
Halford and Hetfiled cant even compete...
Halford Metal, Hetfield blazing rock. I dont think theyre in the same class.
@@lovedofgod.4905 tf are you talking about hetfield is metal not rock
sniperguyAZ thrash metal at that lol
I love Rob Harford. I am thankful for everything he has done for music. Hail to the Metal God!
REAL Metal gods don't suck cock
I find Rob Halford very genuine, wise, and endearing. Lovely interview. (Not disparaging Sammy, of course!)
Sammy's such a cool, laid-back, down-to-Earth guy. Surprisingly, Halford is, too.
Rob is deadass wearing a dragon necklace you can buy off amazon for 8 bucks i love this man so much
Money means nothing to that man, he is just a generous down to earth guy who has no desire to buy fancy jewelry or expensive metal style medallions etc.. and I agree I love him as well because he's just such a great guy for that reason and so much more
Cool.good for him why not.he likes his necklace.!!💋🙏😁💡👍😂
He is a man for the people, and it's by design that everyone has copied him for 45 years.
Lol think you meant badass. Deadass is like a deadbeat kind of person lol
Probably a copy of his.
Movie that Rob Halford was talking about was named 'Johnny B Goode', as the song. He mentioned 'Buffy, the Vampire Slayer' but he was on that soundtrack with Pantera as backing band, the song was 'Light comes out of black'.
Two of the coolest, and most humble guys in rock
So Rob's been clean and sober since 1986 and Sammy has his own distillery. What a dichotomy.
Some can drink and not have issues and others can't.
I was waiting to see if Sammy was gonna offer Rob a bottle of tequila.
@@nickknee3515 wouldve been kinda insulting, even if Rob would have been graceful about it
same as me 1986 I gave up drink,drugs,tabak,coffee,cola
Funny how the sober guy is dressed like a cartoon character and the boozer is dressed like he works in HR
Loved to have been a fly on the wall during the recording of British Steel. Excellent record.
As a metalhead and storm chaser, this is now my favorite video on the internet.
are you sure, it's not about lamps
How is Sammy Hagar 70 years old yet looks barely over 50? Meanwhile, John Campbell of Lamb of God started looking like Gandalf when he was 37. Age is weird in the ass backwards world of Rock and Metal.
Zach Ritchie I think drugs and alcohol plays a big role in that.
Yagami Raïto Sammy also did the drugs and rock n roll thing but not as much as Eddie did
It's the Tequila
Alcohol and drugs kill your looks
Sammy is smart, looks for the greater good, eats good, has a good wife that takes care of him. Lots of rock guys end up with destructive friends and destructive wives. They end up dead. You know the ones, Kurt, Chris, Jimi, Jim. Surround yourself with negative minded folks and especially negative minded mates, you go down.
Halford seem like such a nice guy!
I saw Priest in concert twice in the 80s......hi Rob! His scream voice is epic! Also much Love to you too Sammy! Your love is drivin me crazy!!
Both are full of class..
Halford continuing to morph into Doctor Robotnik
You killed me fucker hahaha
robotnik WISHES he was as METAL as Halford
grungeboy93 Metal Sonic?
Pluto from hills have eyes
Lol
It's so easy to love Rob and Sammy. They just seem like great guys.
I hope I look as young as Sammy when I'm 70
Hell yes. And those teeth. Good gens.
I hope I LIVE to be 70.
With that blue cord on your shoulder, you'll be looking like Sammy pretty soon, bud.
@@doodoobonejones truuuu
he's handsome
He didn't say "They get that wrong sometimes" this episode doesn't feel right
Just in case if anyone was curious, the Cheech and Chong song that Rob was singing at 7:30 is "Earache My Eye".
Rob is the man my favorite vocalist of all time with and without priest
Rob is vocalist of all time .GREETINGS FROM MACEDONIA SKOPJE.
That dream with Sammy Hagar happened to me too. My Dream went like this: I was standing in my Grandma's Bedroom(she was in the hospital at that time, laying in a coma with no chance of waking up again) and she was laying in her bed, i said to her; "can you hear me? can you see me?" she answered "Yes, of course but I'm tired, I must go to sleep now." so I wished her good night and told her that I loved her, gave her a hug and went outside. When I woke up the next morning, my mom told me that my grandma past away last night... I guess that was her, saying good bye to me, I was so sad but happy at the same time that I had the chance to say goodbye to my grandma :)
Wow, thanks for sharing that.
I don't know if you guys know this fact, but... Sammy is 70 at this moment in time. WOW! I want to grow old like him!
P3KaX as of 11-30-17 I'm 46 and Sammy looks younger then me lol
A lot of plastic goes into making someone that old look that good
Eat your veggies. And sleep a lot. Isn't that what our parents used to say? ;)
True
@@i.m-r0d And Sammy knows the difference between "than" and "then" and when to use it properly.
Rob sounds like a very wise man.
I’m proud of Graham, I’ve always been able to tell that he struggles with Anxiety (because I do as well). Yet here he’s so cool, collected and confident. it’s not easy getting on a stage with your heroes. Our boy Gruhamed helping keep Rock and Metal alive!🤘
Two humble stars. Fantastic😊
I tried his fountain of youth drink Cabo Wabo. After 1/2 a bottle I fell on the yard and had to be dragged into my house along with my dog by my neighbor. Thanks Sammy!
lol!!!!
sounds like it was all his fault... !
Sammy is noble as hell. Hope I look as good as him in my 70's.
Man, it is hard to accept that Sammy is 70 years old. The man doesn't age like the most of us. If you showed a picture of him to someone that doesn't know who he is and asked them to guess his age, I figure that they would say 50 or so. But more important than his 'looks', the man's voice hasn't considerably dropped off as so many other singers have had to deal with. After 50 or so, most singers' voices start to suffer and they have to change the key of their signature tunes. But Sammy's voice has stayed amazing. Sure, he has to change the key on some of his numbers, but not to the point of guys like Paul Stanley, where as it sounds like the act of singing is actually painful.
....I don't need to mention this phenomenon with Rob Halford. hehe. Like Dio, Rob's voice has stayed freaking impeccable. Another dude with this same gift is Bruce Dickenson. Their voices are like fine wine that gets better with time. Rock on fellas.
Rob's voice sounds pretty bad nowdays
Dio lost most of his high range during his last 10 or so years.
Rob isn’t as good at hitting the highs as he used to but his low voice has actually gotten better with age
The Priest had to change the key to "Blood Red Skies" to a lower one in concert, because of Rob simply not being able to hit those high notes anymore. It is one of my favorite JP songs.
Well, to be fair, Paul Stanley's voice always sucked! Like your post though, your comment here is excellent...
By the way, doesn't anyone remember the solo stuff Rob did? Absolutely fantastic! Some were heavier than Priest and included John 5.
Rob did a lot of his solo stuff BECAUSE it was too heavy for JP. "Slow Down" is my favorite RH solo tune.
Yes he had a band called Fight. Saw them play and was heavy
I love that Fight album!
Thank you Loudwire! this is one of the best interview I’ve seen in some time. Rob always a professional and I love Sammy’s honesty. The most normal Rock Music Gods.
I love these random pairings. I wish you guys would do more like it.
Two of my all-time favorite singers.
I notice little things. Notice how Sammy is so laid back and chill. Leaning forward with his arms on his legs or leaned back in the chair. Just a chill relaxed dude. Rob is facing Graham, leaning towards him face to face. Really engaging. Different guys and personalities. Yet both cool as hell!
Sammy's body language shows that he feels vulnerable. He is physically backing away from questions, and definitely lies about one of them. He's also guarding his genitalia throughout the interview. Dead giveaway that he is on guard.
@@jukeboxcowboy 😂 Umm....okay
@@TheAxe4Ever lol. I do wonder which Twister story of Sammy's is the real one... this one, or the one he gave to Howard Stern...
Or are they both nonsense? Both completely different. Twister, indeed.
He still likes the boys
Rob Halford was a total gentleman here.
Undoubtably two of my favorite metal/ Rock front man all time
Wow. That was well done, and everyone involved, pure class acts. Just outstanding. Great to watch.
The fan in the audience was right; the film was called Johnny Be Good.
Sammy and rob was awesome 🤘🤘👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
I have the album “Never Say Good-bye,” at home.....Where Eagles Fly is an awesome song, as well as Give to Live!!
For those that may be interested....The distance between Sutton Coldfield where Rob Halford was born and Aston, where Ozzy Osbourne was born, is literally 7 miles 😊
This is so beautiful, keep doing this guys
Dude, I have become extremely introverted the moment I was diagnosed with severe form OCD staring, yet, I felt no anxiety or stress at all while I was here listening to them. Long live rock n roll, long live all of these people!
That is so f***ing cool!!!!! I'm a huge Sammy fan, and Rob Halford is just a great positive force!
Well done!!! \m/
Hmm you must not be a Van Halen fan then lol
Two very POWERFUL Vocalist!
Hagar looks like he should be writing a check at Ralph's for 0.69 cents
Loved how humble these 2 legends are, thanks Loudwire!
Anyone else notice Rob is sitting under Sammy's name and Sammy is sitting under Rob's name
Hahaha, right? : D
It's Rob Hagar and Sammy Halford!
Ooops!
Rob is way cool. Sammy too! Both living Legends!
Best one yet!!!
Also...please do one with King Diamond
The Red Rocker & The Metal God... True Legends.
Two monster talents and giants in the music industry who seem to be genuinely open and cool as hell. Be great to have a beer with those guys.
Yuuuup.
I love Hagar and Van Halen’s music, but Rob Halford is just inherently a more interesting guy to interview, both for stories and the delivery of them.
I would say they’re both great, in different ways. I’d actually pick hanging out with Sammy.
I agree. I'd sit down and have a serious conversation with Rob but would love to laugh over a few beers with Sammy.
i think interviewing them together was a mistake. they've both got tales to tell and trying to get them to engage deeply, question by question seems a little unsuccessful. sammy's replies are quicker and to the point, rob expands... sometimes a lot, making it all seem a little awkward. good interview, just would be have a _great_ interview if done one at a time.
and to clarify, robs answers are great. and graham does a good job trying to balance it. enjoyable.
maybe thats just the british style lifestyle vs the american upbringing lifestyle, they are both unique in each way Rob being a more clean and sober person where Sammy enjoys a good party . they are still masters of their craft and what makes things work so well, and they have great respect for one another and , Rob has proven especially with the Statement to James and even Sammy in agreement as well shows the overall respect of the Music they perform and those also involved in the Business!
By far, the best edition ever!!
That movie that Rob was thinking of wasn't Buffy, it was the movie Johhny Be Good with Anthony Michael Hall and Uma Thurman, from 1988. They did that cover song for the movie, and although Rob says that he liked it, he must be the only one who does. lol Glen Tipton refuses to talk about it these days, he hated it so much.
I love the song.
Buffy was Light Come's Out of Black the collaboration with Pantera. I like Johnny, but Light... is one of the best songs he's ever sung. The live version is outer-worldly.
@@TUTruth Agreed!
HEHE, I can't believe that Rob didn't remember that. :D Heck, the move has the same name. :D
It was the same song with a shitload of guitar,awesome song!
Very intriguing end to the interview . Can't wait for the follow up with Rob ( and Sammy too?). nice 27mns. cheers
Abraxas is the name of the high school I went to. Means "Second Chance" in latin. Was also the name of a Santana album.
Yes,Abraxas is Santana masterpiece
@@elcabezon5487 The beautiful black woman with the white dove between her legs is an image I'll always cherish!!!
"I hope your feelings better". Was just rockin this the other day. Brilliant album, Santana is an entity of magic. Dude is dialed in to good things.
Sammy made a reference about not teaching eddie how to play bass like eddie said about Michael Anthony. That's why he laughed. Graham didn't catch that.
Halford and Hagar, two of the top ten rock singers of all time.
Sammy is da man 👊
"That´s the movie, not the game" What a nice dude Rob is
Damn it Sammy looks good for his age
I'm so obsessed with 70's Rock.
Just thought I would say that.
Even though Point of Entry was done in the early 80's , I love "Heading out to the Highway" and "You Say Yes" from that album 😊
Me too dude.
First time I ever heard heading out to the highway I was painting a house stopped everything that i was doing and waited to hear who it was but the album a few months later loved every track on it
Two of the more down to earth Rock/Metal stars that you will meet...Red Rocker/Metal God...Enough Said...
How the hell can rob be 66 years old. Guy looks barely 50
MadeByTwan 66? that’s metal af
Sammy is older than Rob and looks even younger than him.
Right?
MadeByTwan Sammy is 70 and he doesn't look it either.
Both of them look really energetic, healthy, and speak so fluently regarding their age.
Sad wings of destiny is the greatest hard rock album of all time! All hail Halford🤘
Dickie Punchcock I prefer Stained Class
you mean Heavy Metal album.....
itkojecockot
I think this album is more hard rock, the speed and guitar solos aren’t quite metal, my opinion
@@mdf198122 that's because the production wasn't as heavy back then, but the style is defintely metal...... and style is what determines the genre...... "Paranoid" also had similar production and it's still metal......
itkojecockot
You said it, it wasn’t a metal production. We’ll have to agree to disagree. I think we can both agree that the album is a classic and one of the best of any genres
Both my favorite singers
Firepower kicks so much even after 3 years
They have to do a fact or fiction with my man gruhamed
United Metalheads +1
they need to get someone new! 90% of the time he acts so uninterested when he hears an answer.. oh hmm um ok next
The movie Twister single-handedly brought back the Dodge Ram.
Two of the most down-to-earth guys I've watched on this forum ever. They both are excellent human beings.
Yep.
Two of my favorites for different reasons too
I love Rob so much
Please do King Diamond fact or fiction
These guys seem to be such genuinely cool people.
They both seem very respectful of each other.
Hi, I'm Rob Halford and I always wanted to play the guitar; but the beginning seemed so slow and frustrating...
Trekkie 135 *facial expression of confusion*
The Yousician advert?
Trekkie 135 hi I'm the Axe Man and I rock Detroit style.
Judas Priest the greatest opening band to ever play in america!
I need a Steve Harris fact or fiction!
Fact
If not 'Arry then Bruce!
TheSpiffyPuppet I'll tell you a fact about Steve . on the no prayer for the dying tour at the end when they all throw out guitar picks and their wristbands Steve took one of Nicko's drum sticks and practically handed to my friend ( a girl) as the lights went up anf we were leaving a dude with a whole bunch of VIP lanyards came up and said " Steve Harris would like you to come back stage " and she said NO 👎 .... True story I was there .
+Aaron Hilton dude that sucks
i have a fact. i caught Steves westham wrist band in chicago. that made me real happy cuz i was joking with my friends on the way to the concert, saying i aint leaving without steves wrist band.
Rob Halford 🤘 When Rob was talking about guitarist’s who sing & play such as James Hetfield he’s so right & it blows my mind when a musician can play & sing that kind of demanding hard fast music. Dave Mustaine is another guitarist who blows my mind while doing both.
I love both of these guys. I grew up playing guitar and played every Priest and Maiden song I could learn. Of course was a big Van Halen fan and when Sammy joined i was still young, about 15 when he joined so was a big fan of his. I had room in my heart for both. My favorite thing about Sammy vs Dave is how much the music was different after Sammy joined. It was a different band, not the same band with a guy trying to be Dave. I have to admit, i was surprised when Rob came out of the closet. I'm not sure ho i didn't see it lol but it did catch me off guard somehow but I love him just as much. Not too many people write the lyrics like Rob did.
Hard to believe that Sammy is a multi millionaire (worth about $200 million) when you look at how he is dressed in this video lol. What a down to earth, humble guy!
Sammy is awesome,got to meet him in 2013 at Rock and Roll Fantasy Camp , got to play on stage with him also ,Great guy ,very humble.
Well it's only the insecure and the people without money who feel the need to impress
@@jasonkaraszkiewicz1025 Generalization.
I can relate to Sammy's story about his father. I was visiting a Buddhist temple in the mountains in Japan and admiring the beauty. I noticed an old monk staring at me. I acknowledged him and he approached me. He said to me, in Japanese, 'Call your mother. Your father is gravely ill'. He was so earnest about it that when I went back to my hotel the first thing I did was to call my mom. That's when I found out my father had a massive heart attack and had passed away a few hours earlier. It shook me to my core. I was visiting a temple I had never been to, nobody knew me or that I spoke Japanese, yet this monk knew to tell me that my father was gravely ill. An experience that I will never forget.
WOW
2 of my favorite singers and a great interview.
I love to sit down and talk with Rob, he seems like a down to earth kind of guy. He definitely likes to talk lol.
Two of the BEST vocalists ever; different genres love them both! Bad interviewer.
Twister (not the board games) featuring Van Halan
At the 5:25 mark when he's talking about how guitarist/vocalists and the concentration they have to pull that off, I wonder if he's ever watched Geddy Lee live between singing, keyboards and bass pedals. Great interview! Love this stuff.
We can marvel at how many LEGENDS there are in the world of music .. here are two of them .. and whether it's Hagar, Halford, or anyone else, I could listen to them for hours on end .. very enjoyable
Sammy is the real deal - been a fan since Montrose
Two of my #1 favorite bands/frontmen
Who knew having Sammy and Rob on the same stage just talking would be so funny between them? :D
WOW, took me a couple years to get to this interview, that was awesome. "Montrose" was probably my 1st exposure to "Metal" (Heavy Rock) in passing on AOR FM Radio when I lived in Louisiana at the time. Priest came to me for "Breaking the Law", and never looked back, soaking in almost ALL the subgenres invented in my lifetime \m/. Thank you Sammy and Rob for all the great music, and man those were some awesome stories :). Btw - Sammy will be 72 this year . . . . . let that sink in, he's doin' something right.
