  • He is a great song writer that created heavy metal and all the other genres from it. What else do you want? He is a good lead guitarist considering what they were like back then with soloing.

  • why is there a dislike button

  • im an embryo and i love this song sorry for what my generation will do to this music...

  • best thirty seconds of my life

  • why is this song so short........i never knew.

  • is so epic when they start playing children of the grave after this!

  • its only about 27 seconds....why????

  • @Jamony1 It's a prelude, its made to bridge 2 songs in an album. It makes the album flow better.

  • master piece

  • wtf?

  • reminds me of a medieval tune-Iommi = genius!

  • It sounds like Montenegrin instrument - gusle

  • @jaganjacfan No it is a broken guitar out of tune, those stoners could never get in tune very well.

  • Comment removed

  • @koletski21 well I said it just reminds a bit,not that actually is.

  • @jaganjacfan I wish it was, that would be more interesting than what ya hearing, Tony Iommi "the stoner", he must be tone deaf!

  • @koletski21 Tony Iommi tuned his strings down three half steps for the album to give it a darker sound. He normally had it tuned down half a step because he got his fingertips cut off. don't believe me, look it up

  • @cartmammainia I am aware of that, I used to enjoy playing some of Iommi's licks as a teenager learning guitar. In retrospect Iommi was no technique genius but in comparison he was about average for hard rock guitar, plus we can spot him a little for being at a disadvantage.

  • @koletski21 i agree. he's no jimmy page or david gilmour, just like ozzy's good, but he's no robert plant or jim morrison.

  • Justice - Canon (Primo)

  • This is sort of like being in the Original wicker Man

  • fuck non-metal music

  • Sounds liek something I heard in church one time... Only about 20 times shorter and 100 times awesomer.

  • this sounds soooo much like ethnic albanian music!!!! love it!!!!

  • Second best prelude in metal. Sorry, the first is The Hellion by Judas Priest.

  • @ChristianU2ubeh No this is way more bad ass The Hellion just stroking the guitar this has a mean ass organ or some shit llike that its so fucking metal!

  • @ChristianU2ubeh Meh, I disagree, but Hellion is a good choice. :D

  • This song and the rest of Masters of Reality should be the sound track to every medieval movies or video game xD

  • They should have used this song in conan the barbarian!

  • Best lyrics ever!! :D

  • Best 30 seconds of my life.

  • tried to learn how to play this on my guitar, think I broke my guitar instead.

  • black Sabbath is my favorite band and this mini-song is no word to say what I feel

  • Check it out, everybody.

    I Won't be on this account anymore, so anybody who comes across this video and wants to see more of my stuff, check out my new acc "Oceangiraffe".

    That's all.

  • I HAVE SPENT 666648822846848677 HOURS LISTENING TO THIS SONG ;P

  • one of the greatest 30 seconds in my life has certainly not been wasted today :)

  • iron maiden ripped this off listen to the start of Hallowed By Thy Name and you will know what i am talking about

  • @mentalfeed70 inspired would be a better word, tweaking up a riff can b fun and not everything can be original taking the old and building off of it

  • @crazeyboii678 i was just saying seems nobody ever noticed that

  • if detuned means tuned down 1 tone then yes

  • are the guitars detuned for this?

  • This song is like sex for me, absolutely amazing half minute.

  • i like this. tony does a lot of medieval sounding acoustic work.

  • great job !

  • 30 seconds heaven

  • ive never came in 30 secounds befor till now

  • best 30 seconds ive ever spent

  • 30 seconds of straight jizzing :)

  • corey duffel

  • this prelude is amazing but it gives me a chilling feeling

  • do you think this song had any inspiration?

  • @seventhson2011 classical is most obvious

  • i want this in my funeral

  • what happened to the rest of the song, this is only the intro to the song children of the grave

  • @THEwhiteRHIN0 This is a full, nice and f**king awesome song. "Just because it's short, people started to think it must be some kind of prelude to Children of the Grave. Well it's not." -Tonny Iommy

  • @Setup38 then why does tonny play it before children of the grave live

  • @YourNameHere136 because they don't play children of the grave first, soooo, somethings gotta go before.

  • @Setup38 it definatley is

  • Including Horns and a red skin... Sabs ftw!

  • Ha,Ha, Every time I hear this, all I think about is Ozzy doing his little Hop-scotch / Irish Dance on Stage...... Something like ( Spinal-Tap ),,LOL..

  • @ziggy72170 lol me too..

  • How many artists today even know what a prelude is?!

  • Good sound on this vid. Nice and loud without overdriving my speakers. TYI..The slow and heavy songs that comprise most of the album are interspersed with quiet ballads written by Tony Iommi. Two of these, "Embryo" and "Orchid", are short instrumentals serving as interludes. (or so says wiki!)

    ; Q

  • If your woman is pregnant play this to her belly a couple times a day.... by the time the baby is born and you play this... it will turn and look at you with a smile.

  • I have been doing this for about a month and will continue untill birth

  • @tiosipper..... congrats!

    Don't forget some Moonlight Sonata after birth down low in the background for nap times.

    Jazz? Look up.... Jazz Medley by mattotten

    I do all kinds of music.

    Here's one for your woman.

    Firefly :: by Jane Lui (Luieland :)

    Yes, I like it too, I'm getting old.

    ☺♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣☺

  • @AgainstTheWind001 well great minds think alike, my mum played this album almost exclusively throughout her pregnancy. and whenever i hear the gentle songs on this album , it makes me feel very comforted. =)

  • @AgainstTheWind001 lol nice one man

  • @AgainstTheWind001 Also, Planet Caravan. I set up speakers all around my bed, and used to sleep in some strange trancendental bongo-infused alternate universe. Both, excellent instrumentation.

  • This is a legendary solo.

  • Best prelude ever.

  • Comment removed

  • It's a prelude-- get it. Yes, that is a guitar.

  • @Teutonic1250 lol

  • @Teutonic1250 yes it's on the guitar and I don't know why it's actually called "Embryo" but I think it has something to do with this song being the prelude to the song "Children Of The Grave".

  • children of the grave HAS to come after this

  • Hey everyone, if you like this, subscribe to my channel. I upload all kinds of music.
