vh1 Behind the Music Judas Priest 1

[kycooman]

1:20 no... you're a god!

[pakibukas]

their album covers were crazy artwork, my favorite was the flying iron monster motorcycle

[Konjaraful]

@pakibukas painkiller ;)

[TiipX]

1:20 I fucking LOVE that man!!!! :D <3

[spikeman316]

2 words for you: Bruce Dickinson

[depsep1]

1st time to see this doc... excellent! Ripper-era Priest was great, but Halford's voice (plus at his age) is truly amazing.

[nlblood]

No Rob Halford is no Sigaret, youre right!

[WolverineTheDrummer]

In the words of my mom. What he does with his dick doesn't matter. Its his business only.

[InfiniteRhombus]

theres a difference between faggots and homosexuals, homosexuals are people like halford, freddie, etc. Something to offer, a fag is someone who gets into everyones face and has absolutely -nothing- to offer. Just like there is the difference between a black person and a nigger.

[Cincinnatus1869]

@InfiniteRhombus there is a difference between a homosexual man and a perv who will bang anything that would hold still long enough

[PAGEN3]

@junmiguel2007 I agree with you there..

[HeavyMetalBeliever]

@Insanebeastbear Rob Halford didn't "come out" in the 1980s like Freddie Mercury did and that was perhaps what helped Priest's career and enabled Rob to come out in the 1990s after having left Judas Priest (before returning)

[arwestromen]

@HeavyMetalBeliever I didn't know freddie got out I thought he just said he where bisexual

[Mycterizian]

Rob Halford still sounds amazing!!! Priest is dead without Rob at the front of them.

[Insanebeastbear]

Rob Halford is kind of like Freddie Mercury.

[MrGani1985]

what is tha name of song in 6:20 ! thank you great !

[nri222]

@MrGani1985 'Run of the Mill' from Rocka Rolla

[devilink]

Gay or not he is a bad ass singer and metalgod....period

[richardvh]

haha ian needs subtitles

[Thrasher5251]

Gay? Omfg

I didn't know

[TheM3TaLMeTaLLiCa]

Judas Priest isn't Judas Priest without Rob Halford they are just Judas without the Priest fuck tim ripper owens

[Sirscorps]

Man, I HATED "Turbo" & that look.

[JPFender1992]

Why do you think Judas will be a minor band only beacuse Rob is Gay, you have to listen to their music. Not their lives!

[rasaaronzion13]

Rob halford best metal singer ever who gives a fuck if hes gay

[demonhoopa]

Love their stuff from the 70's through Unleashed in the East. Didn't really care for their 80's stuff but I respect them.

[SCORNDOGGMELACH]

You know I gotta' say it. Its strange . When Rob came out as a gay man it didnt effect me like it would another. Let me explain. I couldnt give a damn what Rob does with his genitals because to put it simply, JUDAS PRIEST kicks metal ass, Rob understands the attitude and veiw it takes to be the real rebel of dominence and REMAINS the true ICONIC VOICE of this genre of metal infancy. I cant help it, JUDAS PRIEST continues to kick my ass!!! This fact seems to take nothing from how good they are.

[TheGreaterGood80]

Surprised they didn't touch on Sabbath, they were a neighboring band and a main influence on Priest

[HeavyMetalBeliever]

@TheGreaterGood80 Read "The Story Of Judas Priest: Defenders Of The Faith" by Neil Daniels, which is much more reliable than the special

[AntiMTVMovement]

Judas Priest has SAVED LIVES.

[HalandriMetal]

OH MY GOD THAT CHICK AT 3:36 IS AT METALLICA TOUR AT SEATTLE AT SONG EM I EVIL GO CHECK IT HAHAHA

[fortheloveoftunes]

8:38 major-bummer! .-)

[RiotActRox]

whats the song at 2:39 ?

[JeronimoPalma]

@RiotActRox Heading Out To The Highway...

[lion3p0]

oh god fruity fuck ups blow their brains out and the parents blame metal rather than their own fucking problems as being lousy parents god get a life and take some fucking responsibility

[ChristianU2ubeh]

Wait... In some of those pictures there's a black guy. There was a black guy in Judas Priest.

[Jav0889]

wtf with the subtitles for Ian Hill. I can understand him without them, and English is not my first language at all!

[ThatKrookedVulture]

Just one of the many reasons that metalheads are the best people: Our favorite singer is a gay man and we don't give a flyin' fuck. The world has us metalheads to thank for making the world such a badass place.

[therebelbrain]

@ThatKrookedVulture

fuckin agree!!

[69stratonaru]

quiero subtitulos conchatumadre

[RikkiStarz]

One of the band members girlfriend suggested Rob....It was Ian Hil's girlfriend Rob's sister.

[stanconsidine]

cant get around how retarded 2 guys must be to commit suicide because of a bands lyrics....

[FlyingVist]

PRIESTPRIESTPRIESTPRIESTPRIEST­PRIESTPRIESTPRIESTPRIESTPRIEST­PRIESTPRIESTPRIESTPRIESTPRIEST­PRIESTPRIESTPRIEST............­.................

[dfrye4]

Just curious. As a child in the 80s was ANYONE shocked when they found out he was gay? I mean I don't think they give us fans enough credit. His coming out was a complete non event to me and my friends.

[Jefgg]

Judas Priest is one of the all time great bands and should be in the Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame. The Rob Halford documentary should be called "Fucked From Behind The Music".

[brucekirk89]

who cares if Rob is gay it don't dimenish the mans abilities hes still the best metal voice ever,and the only reasond some peoples got mad is becaseu they found out that all the leather and chains was the gay look downtown and in dark clubs,and he challanged ther sexuality,(the squeeky wheel wants to get greesed)

[TheShepster80]

WTF SUBTITLES!!!!!!!!

[ma8740]

4:31!!! Just awesome; They were kinda the perfect blend of appealing glamour and hard-hitting metal that was meant only for metalheads.

[heashon2000]

I went and saw Maiden, Queensryche, and Halford back in 2001-ish in St. Paul and Halford was kind or an afterthought for me up until that point because I was a fan of the other two bands.

HALFORD BLEW THE OTHER TWO BANDS AWAY SINGLE HANDEDLY! He was fantastic. He should have headlined that night.

[GTAfan421]

Honestly, I dont see why everyone hates ripper so much...Hes a great singer, he isnt Rob, but he didnt TRY to be. He knew he could never *truly* replace Rob!

[ma8740]

@GTAfan421 Agree; and the best thing about the Priest albums with Ripper was they sounded really different from the previous albums.

[GTAfan421]

@ma8740 Exactly, they werent trying to sound the same, in fact it was the opposite; they more than likely figured if they didnt have Rob, why try to make it sound like they still did? People would know the difference.

[ma8740]

@GTAfan421 Yes, and I believe the albums with Ripper had some of the darkest songs by Priest.

[MrPman851]

Ian Hill said this best: Judas Priest's music is music that'll crush your heart or make you crap yourself. In a good way!

[jillianmarquett]

Ok VH1, get a fucking clue. There's more to Judas Priest then a gay frontman.

[diazconias]

Fag is not a gay man; fag is pussy man, who can´t do enithing ´couse have no balls

[Spectreman]

Haha.  I went to college with Paul Gregano in Milwaukee. He was cool.

[dungeonkiller666]

ROB HALFORD IS GAY???!!!! SERIOUS??? HOW EVIL N BADASS IS THAT! LMAO

[HarryPotter87]

@dungeonkiller666 DUH!!! HE IS GAY!!!

[SlaytanicMetalFace]

because of judas priest i am a metalhead now

first song i ever heard you got another thing coming

:D

[thepaddywagonishere]

I remember our wrestling team in H.S warming up to J.P's music.

[JudasAngel666]

WTF is up with people and basically bashing halford cause he's gay??? like WHO GIVES A FLYING FUCK. honestly I don't. I'm Straight but I still respect him like come on anyone that can hit the notes he can(and at his age) deserves respect. All I'm saying is if you wanna bash halford go do it somewhere else instead of here. Like I'd LOVE to see those people's say it to halfords face and see what happens.

[JudasAngel666]

I'm SOOOOOO Depressed that priest will be doing their last world tour =(

[ultimatemegadeath]

@JudasAngel666 , give em a break.... they have been around for over 30 years.

[JudasAngel666]

@ultimatemegadeath So? doesn't mean I can't feel saddened by the fact they're retiring.

[ultimatemegadeath]

@JudasAngel666 , no.. i agree, its saddening, but you know as well as i do... they can't stay forever. and once they are done, others will follow and music will suck even more than it does now. I mean Id rather have them retire on top than do county fairs like bon jovi or whoever.

[JudasAngel666]

@ultimatemegadeath That's true. At same time I'd like to see them leave with ATLEAST one more studio record.

[ultimatemegadeath]

@JudasAngel666 true, but a final last studio album/live would be the strongest way to go.

[JudasAngel666]

@ultimatemegadeath Yep. Just as a "Send off"

[ultimatemegadeath]

@JudasAngel666 , yeah i'd agree to that.

[Metallicafan19961]

Gay is not the way it's nasty

[ilpazzinista]

two best metal bands in the world judas priest and metallica...

[leathergunn]

Who was the dipshit that disliked this...

[giaisbomb]

JUDAS PRIEST WILL ALWAYS FUCKING RULE......

[pergle673]

WHEN DIDN'T WE KNOW HE WAS GAY? NOTHING PERSONAL ROB, BUT....WE ALWAYS KNEW!!!!!

[ZachValkyrie]

In 1998 Rob Halford proclaimed: "I'm gay!"

and the world said: "...so?"

[HeavyMetalBeliever]

@ZachValkyrie The metal community said, "Not that big a secret. We knew anyway"

[rockermetalhead1200]

6:08 What is the name of that song? I feel like listeing to it

[bringbackthemusic]

@rockermetalhead1200 Run of the Mill is the name of the song

[HeavyMetalBeliever]

Rob's still awesome whatever his sexual preference.

Judas Priest pretty much gave the other NWOBHM bands a push in the right direction. But Deep Purple and Zeppelin and Sabbath inspired NWOBHM to break through the rock world

[laithlaith91]

@HeavyMetalBeliever more like Priest,Motorhead,Budgie,UFO inspired the breakthrough of NWOBHM, the 3 u mentioned didnt inspire its development, it was more like punk rock inspired it because wen that came about the bands that wanted to play heavy metal realised they could simplify and speed up their music and still make it sound good

[HeavyMetalBeliever]

@laithlaith91 Oh. Weren't Motorhead and Priest sort of NWOBHM though? Motorhead did have an appeal to the punks and heavy metal crowd sort of slightly before punk

[laithlaith91]

@HeavyMetalBeliever not rly , these bands shudnt b considered NWOBHM simply because they were around before it started wich was 78-79 but yes Motorhead had the appeal to punks coz their main focus was making music that concentrated on very basic.loud,fast,arrogant,pisse­d off rocknroll, but they dressed up with the leather jackets and had long hair so they were considered part of the metal crowd, at the end of the day though id say that they inspired the movement, but werent part of it

[Jefgg]

Maybe this should have been called "Fucked From Behind The Music" in honor of Rob Halford. Notthattheresanythingwrongwith­that.

[sweetgyy]

rob is fucking awesome , doesnt matter his sexual preference.

[tomnez]

what is the kick ass song at 0:42!?! come on,feed back now!!!im dying here,its takin forever trackin it down

[pokermel]

@tomnez  Freewheel burning

[brucekirk89]

@tomnez its called free wheel burning off of the staind glass album i think

[skovol007]

@brucekirk89 it's off "Defenders of the Faith"

[orwa9670]

i dont if rob is gay he still a metal god no mater what

[80rockforever]

@urkingod Jesus died and came back to life, walking dead  aka ZOMBIE you book is retarded this is metal bitch fuck off

HAIL THE PRIEST!!

[crammage]

because vh1 wont play good behind the music any more, i searched this!!

JP!!!!

[MrShellschock]

they saved this genre, I will forever bow down to Judas Priest

[SLIMSLO1]

Too much emphasis is placed upon someone's sexuality defining who a person is, gays and lesbians are part of the world! Let them have all their human rights and get on with life. I know I am with all these hot ass sluts in this town, not enough time to worry about others preferences.

[feo130]

Lol @ "I'm a fag."

Rob=THE GOD OF METAL!!!

[pswallace]

Judas Priest... THE definitive metal band. They lead by example!

[DefLeppardVanHalen]

This original version first aired on September 23, 2001.

[Tmcalis108]

Why does Ian Hill need subtitles? LOL

[vikingmog]

the song at 5 51 is run of the mill off rocka rolla great song great album.

[sordidgreg]

subtitles!?!? seriously?? wow.... :|

[vveq]

When they rented rehearsal space from the church vicar, I wonder if they told him the name of the band was Judas Priest. Ironic, yes ?

[terrorizerr1]

the moment i saw rob for the first time i knew he was gay!

[666mathew]

What is the song at 5:51 ?

[ets1410]

@666mathew Run of the Mill from Rocka Rolla Album

[Drojdier]

@ets1410: Thanks man, I owe you a beer ;)

[JudasAngel666]

I LOVE that part at 1:23 Halford just like "FUCK YOU PEOPLE. You gotta problem with it BRING IT ON" Pretty much Koodos Rob. You Rock.

[Drojdier]

Anyone knows the song @6:55

[ets1410]

@Drojdier Run of the Mill

[Ozeshin]

Dumb arsed Yanks have to provide subtitles for Midlands accents...HILARIOUS..!!!!

[vanhalen515084]

one of the best metal singer of all time, victim of changes is awesome

[MusicIsMyAir22]

im a fag pffft rob halford ftw \m/

[laithlaith91]

Priest..The Almighty Gods Of Heavy Metal

[eatshoweategg]

Walsall is in the Midlands, not the North. Please don't accuse me of being pedantic; the two areas have totally separate cultural and social histories and identities.

[zoso7889]

Why the fuck is there a need for subtitles?

[Dimefan91]

Wow, I'm astonished that they have English subtitles when certain people are speaking ENGLISH!!! British English is not that different from American, or is this just for regular VH1 audience (which doesn't say much for them).

[deraickripper]

@Dimefan91 mmm i can see anyamerica tv series or movie couse i learn with that accent, but i had some problems with brithish english, and i can't understand a word from irish people... i'm from chile and believe me, the subs help a lot of idiots like me xD

[jongmagee]

1:22

this is why Rob Halford is one of the best lol

hes the man!! hahaha lol

[doomsdaygray]

this is fucking awesome! thank you!

[MrROTD]

theres a whole documentary about the court case here on youtube, pretty interesting. Priest forever!!!!

[cristianlevican]

0:42

What song is that???

[Prosopagnosia11]

@cristianlevican "Freewheel Burning"

[optics05]

ROB=GOD

[ElectricBlueOil]

you've got another thing comin--that's a good song!

[LetTheMassBegin]

They put Run Of The Mill in this? Badass.

This is the best shit I've seen on Priest so far.

[EligosPoltergiest]

lol, the infamous nwobhm cardboard guitar @ around 0:09

[EligosPoltergiest]

Just to be honest, I believe the sad wankers who killed themselves were probably high when they heard this song. The "do it" in Better By You Better Than Me occurs once at 2:32, but when you're stoned dumb or just plain stupid, I guess things can sound differently. Ignorant fools who really believe in the subliminal message theory most likely don't even know what this songs lyrics are about, let alone aren't Priest fans. It's an anti-war song mind you.

[prodigalson56]

Yeah working in a steel mill doesn't make you middle class... Rob came from a working class background.

[thejpfan]

FREE WHEEL BURNING

[Scrabs96]

what song is 0:40 ?

[jorgediego]

Those commercial Pop Rock songs  Living after Midnight, Hot Rockin', Another Thing Coming etc. are not Metal- Now Victim of Changes, Sin After Sin, Exciter, Electric Eye, Painkiller, that's what made JP Monsters of Metal.

[BlackenedForLife]

correct. In every great band the most well-known songs are the WORST in my opinion.

Breaking The Law and Living After Midnight are the worst from the Priest. Ah, their early stuff. I love it.

The same with say Metallica. Sandman? No no no...

[jjjxxx777]

@jorgediego Back then it was.

[LoneWolfHowl1]

Rob Halford is gay, and heavy metal fans don't care!!!

YOU FUCKING ROCK ROB!!!

[zyphoid666]

@LoneWolfHowl1

Besides, he's Burt Reynolds compared to the average Lady GaGa or Madonna fan. How fucked is that?

[HarryPotter87]

@LoneWolfHowl1 BOBBY IS A TRUE METAL GOD!!! :D

[therebelbrain]

@LoneWolfHowl1

dam right we dont fkn care!

[Evilwalker99]

Thank you so much for upload!!!

[ilpazzinista]

[CrushJehovah]

British Steel was a shitty album and I love Judas priest

[fetusjuice]

Thanyou so much man for uploading this. Fucking Judas Priest forever!!!

[FreakinSweet86]

Judas Priest FTW!

[kingballsthethird]
