Black Sabbath - Fairies Wear Boots

[geoffwoade]

getting pretty sick of all these 'i'm only 13 and listen to classic band x' posts. it doesn't make you a better person

[WhoClippedMyWings]

@geoffwoade But it does make one an attention whore.

[youngauthorforever13]

toasterrobotify i aint no bro, im a girl, but its cool, man. i totally agree with ya

[entwistle4ever]

I love Michel Luan........ :-)

[entwistle4ever]

So many great British bands! OMG. And I'm an American. At least we have Elvis & Hendrix.

[larussural]

@entwistle4ever good for you , in my country we have michel luan

[MrPonkine]

The last guitar riff sounds pretty much like what Steve Howe did on Yes' Onwards, in 1978. Such a different song from Faires Wear Boots! both astounding. And we do know Yes and Sabbath kept in touch each other in the 70s ;)

[poisonsox3]

@Youngautgorforever13 that makes two of us.

[youngauthorforever13]

I know people do this a lot, so sorry. But I'm glad I'm 13 and listen to Black Sabbath. So many kids dint even know who they are...

[toasterrobotify]

@youngauthorforever13 Same, bro. Tony Iommi is my f*cking idol!! I want to play all my guitar songs from him, and Jimmy page!

[warman31]

@youngauthorforever13 Even worse, I met people who don't know who Ozzy Osbourne is...

[Motelcalifornia2]

Santorum wears horns, you gotta believe me!

I saw it! I saw it with my own two eyes!

Oh, yeeeeeeah!

LOL



[MJP474]

If that is not the Truth?

[1eyednewt]

Barry wears boots & coots!

[AtBigSmall]

from 5:42 to the end of the vid, is that an matalica intro. i heard ppl say it was. Anyway, awesome song

[runningwithdeath]

@AtBigSmall Yes, For Whom the Bell Tolls has a riff that is very similar; it's at 1:17 in the song.

[tonyhawksacriminal]

own an original on vinyl, yessss

[LeKerstman]

Geezer and Bill are just the best rhythm section a band can get

[watchtrillions]

Excellent.

[mikeshorin]

I truly cannot understand what those 30 assholes have against Osbourne.

[entwistle4ever]

So good. Bands today can't beat this sound. Ozzy rules.

[frontrowdave1]

One of my fave's from the original Sab! I was soooo happy they played this on their reunion tour in 99...

[ColtClockwork]

Haha, the description. I dont think their intentions ran that deep they just fuckin played.

[highball1963]

ive tripped harder than this althought this is a good start

[bigboondi]

I had it on Vinyl, Then on Tape, Then on CD, Now on pc hdd-itunes.

Must be getting old, I Caught up with an old flame from way back in the late 70's, going to meet my Daughter this year she is 33, with 3 children. I was a grandad at 36!

See what booze, sex, drugs, and rock and roll, can do for you?

;) and loving it.. O.o

[InfernalDreamGuitar]

CAPTAIN OBVIOUS: 5:43 reminds of Metallica "For whom the bell tolls"

[bknthday]

@InfernalDreamGuitar Seriously? Not even close!

[InfernalDreamGuitar]

@bknthday i meant that Metallica (MAYBE) was inspired by that part...

[rsohlich1]

I used to listen to this song BLASTED on good dank green and some mushies. Some friends and I would blast this stuff on the weekends and just drive the country roads at night. So many good times.

[shrubhater]

Stoned + Bad-Ass Headphones+ Loud= The best way to enjoy Black Sabbaths's Music

[69daniegyrl]

I TOLD MY KIDS FAIRIES WEAR BOOTS!! THEY DIDN'T BELIEVE ME!!

[trololololololol01]

@69daniegyrl Then you need show show them who wears the pants.

[thedarkshitstain]

@69daniegyrl But they gotta believe you! Tell them you saw it with you're own eyes.

[curtdammit]

@69daniegyrl I BELIEVE YOU!!!

[zachisaniceperson]

HEADBANGERS HOLD ON FOR DEAR LIFE!!!!!!!!

[IanTheMontrealSkater]

Bryan Herman

[jbeng1953]

Sabbath ruled back then and still do today!

[godzilla964]

The only fairy I can think of that wears boots in Belvira from "Rebirth of Mothra".

[ericou812]

i always wondered whose the dude on the album cover?

[Chyrre]

29 fairies do not wear boots

[GetYourPull18]

epicness

[MattMcNugget]

Bryan Herman

[teidenzero]

for whom the boot tolls

[StoneyMcJuicyBuds]

This song is about the American "Whig" party of 1834 and it's opposition to the policies of President Andrew Jackson and his Democratic Party. In particular, the Whigs supported the supremacy of Congress over the presidency and favored a program of modernization and economic protectionism.

[mickeysguns1997]

@StoneyMcJuicyBuds Its about the boots skinheads would wear?

[SmileyGarrish]

@mickeysguns1997 they still do; check out the EDL.

[thetalkingbathroom]

@StoneyMcJuicyBuds this is black sabbath were talkin bout right?

[StoneyMcJuicyBuds]

@thetalkingbathroom Of course, you should hear Geezer's accounts of the Louisiana purchase, they're riveting.

[victormlira]

Try listen to this song using a beats phone amd u will see how amazing this song can be

[ballwashinfruit65]

Do fairies wear ass-less leather chaps with their boots? I'm gettin turned on.

[StoneyMcJuicyBuds]

@ballwashinfruit65 All chaps are ass-less otherwise they would be pants.

[xxfroobxx]

@ballwashinfruit65 lmfao

[wipers86]

@ballwashinfruit65 you do know who the fairies are don't you ? Ozzy came up with the words fairies wear boots referring to the skin heads lol

[GreekPiranha]

@ballwashinfruit65 the fairies in this song are not the ones you think ;)

[guitarttimman]

Thumbs way up from me! This music is timeless and still very very awesome!

[MrYankeesfan68]

29 people are fucking justin bieber to hell! screw him, he's a no good cock sucking milester!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[CrazyMalone]

@MrYankeesfan68 whats a milester

[MrYankeesfan68]

@CrazyMalone A milester is an adult that has sex with kids in other words, they milest them. Just like Bieber. He or she will never learn to shut the fuck up and kill himself.

[EffayHue]

@MrYankeesfan68

YOU ARE RIGHT! I hate that bieber bitch sounds worse than my clogged toilet!

[BlackNorwegianMetal]

@MrYankeesfan68 Molester* Not Milester 

[georgethan1]

THE Best group ever.........



[leahcimrac]

29 fairies wear slippers.

[ballwashinfruit65]

nice fuckin bass lines

[Dunkleosteus9]

I hear this riff as a intro to radio shows. Do you approve if you were in to this song back then?

[1gravityann]

i think this song rocks!!!!!

[beggindogs]

Whoever wrote the info is so damn right on! :)

[LeKerstman]

@beggindogs it's straight from wikipedia :P

[9910Alvin]

Awesome :D

[TheCrimsonification]

Even with a missing finger, Tony Iommi pwned the six string. Gotta love the classics...without them the music industry (yes it's an industry) would be stagnant, like the billboard top 100. Black Sabbath...rocking the way for free thinkers. BTW, the songs about gays in the military.

[TheCrimsonification]

@TheCrimsonification "Fearies wear boots, you gotta believe me, I saw it...I tell you no lies."

[GregSolomon]

@TheCrimsonification Actually, he's not missing a finger. He lost the tips of his middle finger and ring finger in a shop before he started playing guitar for a living.

Tony made two home-made leather "thimbles" to attach to the ends of his two fingers to take the place of the missing tips of his two fingers.

[GregSolomon]

@TheCrimsonification And no, the song is not about "gays in the military."

Actually, this one of Sabbath's more self explanatory songs. Ozzy wrote the lyrics about the hallucinatory effects of drugs.

"So I went to the doctor

See what he could give me

He said 'Son, son, you've gone too far.

'Cause smokin' and trippin' is all that you do.'"

[StringBuster420420]

@GregSolomon ozzy didn't write lyrics brother! ^_^ but everything else is correct! 

[CareTakerViews]

Not even Ozzy himself knows what the fuck this song means.

[beggindogs]

@CareTakerViews :)

[canadamanzz1]

B-HERM STAY GOLD

[dizzymisslizzy2010]

Roll on Download fest 2012..

[dougggunn]

smoking and tripping woooohooo

[dougggunn]

sabbath#1 great tune

[edquin8]

After a concert the band had packed up and was about to leave when suddenly confronted and assaulted by a group of skinheads, all of which were wearing boots. That's how this song came to be.

[GregSolomon]

@edquin8 Actually, that's only partly correct.

Only Geezer was assaulted by the group of "skinheads," not the entire band.

Ozzy took a bit of a jab at them by writing that he saw fairies wearing boots, but the main theme of the song is the hallucinatory effect of drugs.

"So I went to the doctor

See what he could give me

He said 'Son, son, you've gone too far.

'Cause smokin' and trippin' is all that you do.'"

[The90srockfan]

who the hell dislikes this?

[tinasepo]

5:43 intro of Metalica "For whom the bell tolls"

[SnakeSalmon8izback]

@beggindogs asshole like you could do any better

[jack9102]

@SnakeSalmon8izback lol asshole removed his comment; pussy

[SnakeSalmon8izback]

@jack9102 oh yeah i had completely forgot about all of that

[GetYourPull18]

@tinasepo they sound similar indeed ;p

[uofm97]

@tinasepo You know something? I never made that connection before, but now that I think of it......those two parts do sound pretty similar. I wonder if it was intentional or pure coincidence. It's interesting to think about.

[tinasepo]

@uofm97 Black Sabbath has inspired most if not all the heavy metal bands so I am sure Metalica was influenced as well

[uofm97]

@tinasepo That was pretty much my thought, actually. As cool as it would be if Metallica's next album were a new thrash masterpiece, but I think it'd be killer if they tried their hand at Sabbath-inspired doom metal. I think James and the guys could do it.

[freedom287c]

i love this fucking song!!...... drunk or sober!!

[freedom287c]

its 2 late

[freedom287c]

there coming 4 us all

[yamrz500]

Trippin down memory lane, or is that memorys of trippin down the lane, I cant get that straight, or I wasn't straight when I got that. Something about the flagpole at Tybee.

[hecticXx]

[rockjard]

[liltookie17]

[TheInfamousCanadian]

Im reading ozzys book, first book i have ever read, i could just never get in to books. Ozzy said till this day i have no idea what fairies wear boots is about.

[BellethielDaugon]

@TheInfamousCanadian

I have no idea what it's about either. xD Ah, it's still a good song. Now, excuse my while I draw a fairy wearing some kick-ass biker boots.

[SlackerSlayer]

@BellethielDaugon " Now, excuse my while I draw a fairy wearing some kick-ass biker boots."

[perrottafamily1]

25 people have different Goddamn opinions.

[PeaceKukkis]

[bleachtoast1]

i had a cousin in the other room when i was listening to this playing a justin bieber song and she said look how man dislikes are on that and i told her to look at the views to show theres more dislikes than views justin biebers shit

[graffitilegend120]

fairies wear boots and they also die with them on

[psyclops9]

and the winner is ....



[lio543]

lol, it's ok from black sabbath to copy from themselves XD

[MrMetalBreath]

Is this the most incredible music or what?

[adm7007]

Bill Ward is awesome.

He can swing like a jazz drummer unlike most rock drumming stiffs.

[nigletgook]

best band ever all line ups. Iommi is a genius.

[freshbxrth]

baked by black sabbath- found in coma with ears bleeding and twitching to the beat-fook ya!!!

[pervertedmind]

[TwilightPicture]

@pervertedmind me too

[pervertedmind]

@TwilightPicture yay :)

[amberdiane]

@pervertedmind Me too

[OmgItHasMyArm]

25 people have a different taste in music.

[dkelly2541]

The real sabbath to those of us agnostic.

[TheCoop75]

wally

[KKcesarin666]

I can't put this song, off of my head.!!!

[MaceMn]

So I went to the doctor

See what he could give me

He said "Son, son, you've gone too far.

'Cause smokin' and trippin' is all that you do."

[marokilota]

25 motherfuckers don't like this great song!

[acostason]

@marokilota Yea, cause the 25 motherfuckers ARE fairies! and THEY feel violated.

[jooe5200]

now ai smoking weed and this s the best experience of my lifeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

[warman31]

This is the only song on the Paranoid album that Ozzy wrote. Geezer wrote the rest of the songs.

[hayoootje]

@warman31

did you know he came up with all the vocal melodies so it would fit in with the song perfectly?

[warman31]

@hayoootje Yup. He hummed it out. I read I Am Ozzy. Ozzy is my favorite. I would know.

[TheKey241]

Axe Me !

[AirbourneWrestling]

dislike bar is so small that it hasn't even turned red yet

[omtomt8787]

@AirbourneWrestling it should stay that way, one of my fav sabbath songs ever, top 5 sabbath songs

[THX1146]

Its funny because its true.

[entwistle4ever]

The best music is behind us, kids. Sorry to say. :-( 

[omtomt8787]

@entwistle4ever im a "kid" and i would completely agree, well, im 24, but still, i grew up in the wrong gerneration for good music, pink floyd, sabbath, zeppelin

[takellrocksYEA]

where's the dislike bar?

oh yea this is Black Sabbath its non-existent ^_^

[justduke661]

25 motherfukers needs there ass kicked

[omtomt8787]

@justduke661 i agree

[chuckie54able]

@justduke661 ha ha lol no shit!!!!

[bleachtoast1]

@justduke661 wheres the button that tells who disliked the videos 

[pairgetter]

@justduke661 27

[jbyai]

@justduke661 yeah buddy

[thejailbirdz]

These guys were great at the Swing Auditorium in San Bernardino in the '70's! Lynyrd Skynyrd came on after them & they were even more better, i was really pretty smoked by then.

[alkimst13]

@thejailbirdz wouldn't that have been the Starlite Festival? Outdoors? Sept of 75? Big cross illuminated? I might be wrong, but i was at that one. Skynryd, Frampton

[wkskfk]

now, WHAT dislike bar...

[usuqamadiq]

@wkskfk

It's like a ninja... even though you know it's there, you can't see it.

[wkskfk]

@usuqamadiq LOOL

[TheMicstur]

These guys rule and the drummer bill ward kick ass this song is not easy to play on the drumms

[thejailbirdz]

@TheMicstur he can play trash can lids & it'd still sound bitchin'!

[pervertedmind]

I'm so stoned.

I live! d(:

[alkimst13]

the guy with the sword on the album cover looks like my ex neighbor. he's on death row now.

[usuqamadiq]

@alkimst13

oh, you're right... it's actually a guy with a sword...

[Samsgarden]

Bill Ward's drummming is more artistic than we give him credit for.

It's not all about bells and whistles.

[omtomt8787]

@Samsgarden oh yes, he is my second favorite drummer of all time, next to lars ulrich which he is a men among boys when it comes to the world of drummers, but ward is second

[DeathMetalorgetjized]

@omtomt8787 No offense (I'm a Metallica fan, don't bother raging...) Lars isn't the best or near the best drummer... He's my favourite, but not the best.

[cameronobscura22]

@DeathMetalorgetjized .. What does that even mean? How can he be your favorite if you don't think he's even near 'the best' drummer?

[DeathMetalorgetjized]

@cameronobscura22 So the best is your favourite? That's sad. He's an average drummer, but he's me favourite. So fucking what? Lambardo kicks his ass, yet he's not my favourite... Bleh, not gonna be able to get the point to you if that already hasn't..

[TheMysticMushrooms]

@DeathMetalorgetjized I don't get why I like him. Actually I hated his stuff on Death Magnetic but if I go listen to stuff on RTL it's pretty awesome. He had his own style. Gene Hoglan killed that thing he does on One on his band's song Darkness Descends though.

[omtomt8787]

@DeathMetalorgetjized hes my favorite as well, but i think hes the best as well, just a pure genius when it comes to drums, what would make someone the best drummer? fast bass, fast snare, who is the fastest? not i, lars is a fucking genius

[simmonsr42]

sabbath the shit im 44 didnt even start listening to them on the reg till mid 90s they are bad ass and well before there time!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
