  • its is soo amazing perfect performance

  • sure original is always better, but this one is the closest to original as it canbe

  • Saxon did pretty good. Maiden, Priest, Saxon, Ozzy, and Def Leppard are the best British metal bands around!

  • Is this real or fake? I'm kinda leaning toward fake...Proof?

  • @aquemeni541 well Saxon have done this cover, but the sound is pasted onto a different Saxon song...

  • fucking amazing??

  • ¡Esto es Delicioso!

    Bliss over Bliss

  • I really love SAXON. But Biff's voice can't compete with Rob's on this one. and I'm sure it will be the same, if Rob would sing "Dallas 1pm".

  • PRIEST was the first & true INVENTORS of ALLLL METAL ,before PRIEST there was JESUS & before him the mighty dinosaurs.....

  • iron maiden is the best metal band of the world

  • @medinamaiden obiously yeah!!!!

  • This clip's a fake.

    Saxon never released a clip for their cover version of the Priest Classic "You've got another thing comming". The song was released on the album "Legends, A tribute to Judas Priest" a two volume CD featuring bands such as Saxon, Helloween, Gamma Ray, Testament, U.D.O (wicked version of Metal Gods), Stratovarius, Blind Guardian and Testament to name a few.

  • PS Name a heavy metal vocalist who says Biffy is his singing idol..NOT

  • This is horrible!

  • Biff ist absolutely the nicer and much more attractive guy! Rob Halford with his bald head seems like a litte garden gnome. Sorry...

  • Comment removed

  • well I like Saxon, but I also like Judas Priest - but which is better? There's only one way to find out......FIGHT!!!!

  • 20 years ago, me and my headbangin' buddies had a discussion about Saxon versus Priest. We were debating about which band would last the longest. I predicted that Saxon would outlast Priest. Let's see if that ends up being the case. I love both bands with a passion... but Priest is starting to run out of steam and as for Saxon, they're just as nasty as ever and still coming up with original and unique material that doesn;t sound tired and strained.

    Time will tell, I guess. Great cover, BTW.

  • @Tessmage stupid question mister ... i mean god damn priest were already 10 yrs old by the time saxon came out ...

  • @zeramothian

    Incorrect. Saxon has been around almost as long as Priest. It just took them longer to get signed by a record company. But you can trace Saxon all the way back to the mid 1970's... which is around the same time that the first Priest album (Rocka Rolla) was released.

  • @Tessmage - Sorry but you're wrong. Priest originally go back to 1968 and their first album was released in August 1974 roughly 2 years before Saxon were formed in 1976. Saxon's debut Album (Saxon) was in 1979.

  • @skepticalvision

    No, I am not wrong. You are simply nitpicking over a matter of a scant two years. Priest has their ROOTS as far back as '68, yes... but we could say the same about Motorhead, or any number of other bands. I am starting my time line with the first albums released by the bands in question. Using that as a yardstick, my statements were essentially correct.

  • @skepticalvision Saxon goes back to 1970 as Blue Condition and S.O.B, the 2 bands merged into Son Of A Bitch in 1976 and changed their name to Saxon in 1977-78. But Priest is deffo an early influence on Saxon.

    2 great and important bands!

  • @Tessmage - You reply is pure crap. Saxon's first release was in 79 vs 74 for priest, 5 years difference which is a long time in the music industry. Actually 2 years is a long time in the industry. Around the same time means at approximately the same time, it's like saying 9/11 happened in 4/21 2 years earlier.

  • @Tessmage I dunno man, Nostradamus was one hell of a priest album

  • judas priest will alwas be my fave band but never really liked this track(way commercialised) but hearing saxon put their slant on it makes me realise that this song paved the way for a million judas fans that otherwise wouldnt have been

  • cool

  • very good. nothin else needs to be sed

  • A very nice cover indeed.

  • yes they are great.true heavy metal.i love acdc but i am and a big fan of those bands

  • Great job by Biff! Robb Halford is not an easy act to follow! after hearing this I have a WHOLE NEW APPRECIATION for Biff! \m/\m/

  • Great respect to both bands.The founders of Heavy Metal

  • Yes very cool version and i love the both bands very much Judas priest is fucking good band love them and Saxon is my all time favorite band i must say that Saxon is far moore better today if you compare them in the 80.s and Biff sings better today that he did in the 80.s they got better guitarist DOUG SCARRAT and NIBBS CARTER on base they are hell of a band today!!

  • this bum cant hold robs jock......

  • I LOVE SAXON, it think it sounds good, but of course Judas Priest plays this song best!

  • this sounds really fucking good. i love the priest but these guys sound awsome and do justice to this classic

  • Good old metal will never die!!!

    lml_ Ò_Ó _lml

  • This is so fucking Metal!

  • Biff Byford's pretty damn great singer.

  • vocals too much like kermit the frog....

  • Priest is better by a little. Saxon just sounds too un-metallic

  • hey Saxon ARE Metal! \m/

  • dont forget SAXON did this for the PRIEST tribute cd,,,,and its a great job too,just as many people aknowledge that some parts are better than the original, i dont think SAXON tried to top the original, just do a version and make it different, beleive me if SAXON wanted to make it even better they could because they are awesome musicians just like JUDAS PRIEST.

  • Glenn Tipton singing?...lol

  • Glenn Tipton's lead Rules.

  • saxon is a good band but there is no comparing them to the mighty priest and anybody who says this song is better by saxon really needs to have their fucking head examined!

  • Saxon > Priest

    VERY CLOSE THOUGH!

  • Saxon is better!

  • guitars are better on this one, but i like halford's voice better for this song than biff's.

  • priest's is better, but this kicks ass aswell!

  • I had to watch and listen 4 or 5 times. Saxon does kick ass on this song and they really kept it true to the original, hell of an honor to Judas Priest. I gotta go with the Priest version as better though.

  • Saxon does a phenominal job on this song, truly Unbelievable!! I hate to say it, but they perform this song better the Priest does.

  • the sound of saxon is great!!!!!But both are great.

  • saxon est un vrai groupe de hard rock, pas de metal, je m'explique : ce groupe à des influences de blues, et de rock "60" , inspiré de led zep , deep purple, blue cheer, et grand funk. Le metal est arrivé avec black sab

  • Leave UFO outta this, UFO are still making albums and touring, this is a great cover though

  • love them both!!!!!!!you cannot comprare saxon and priest in a judas priest song of course!!!!!by the way,saxon are better

  • Judas Priest.

  • love them both! ♥

  • Iinstrumentals are on steroids .... meatier riffs than JP playing?!

  • im a loyal priest fan-this song has never endeared itself to me..... until NOW! Awesome !

  • Both bands were strong performers. The original Saxon were a great band and blew UFO off the stage, but pre-Turbo era Judas Priest would have blown them off the stage. Priest had 10 more years of experience and were barely behind Sabbath in the creation of Heavy Metal, so that's no knock against Saxon. Currently, both Biff and Rob have kept their voices in great shape for their ages which is no easy feat.

  • Judas Priest,Scorpions,Saxon

    are the best bands

  • saxon are better Period.

  • Sounds Like a Great Cover Band doing a Judas Priest Song.

  • Biffs voive is so awsome, Saw saxon yesterday at Rock City \m/

    I don't think Biff could sing Victim of changes lol or painkiller.

  • Very nice cover! It is also a great band!

  • Halford's vocals are way better, however the instrumental track is darn good compared to the original

  • Agreed

  • judas priest wins easily. not dissing saxon though its a good band

  • Saxon sux

  • Saxon is great but Judas Priest is the best because without the original there would never be the cover.

  • best cover ever!!!!!

  • nice cover of a classic pries song!!

  • They can't be possibly better than the original. They are pretty good, though

  • PRIEST & SAXON = BEST BANDS EVER

    Manowar aren't Kings Of Metal

  • Saxon metal gods

  • I think it's an awesome tribute!

  • joder,la tocan mejor que los judas jeeejeeje

    Saxon for ever

  • he does not sound like halford AT ALL

  • c'mon man Rob Halford is a fucking legendary vocal god...not many people are gonna sound like him.

  • saw priest last year

    saw saxon this year

    saxon this yr. was better than preist last yr.

  • priest does it better but this is a good tribute

  • I LOVE THIS SONG!!!

  • my favorite Priest song done by Saxon... they are the man. both bands

  • Its ok... but Priest is classic and just cant be reproduced. Just ask Ripper.

  • XDDDDD You're a very special kind of fuck you know.... NO, this is not Wheels of Steel (but that is a so cool song too), this is You've Got Another Thing Comin, a legend.

  • judas priest is always better

  • saxon aren't anywhere near priest's level of talent, just listen to angel of retribution. But they are a good classic metal band, and this is a good tribute to the metal gods!!!!!!!!!

  • I don't know. Both bands are great!!1 It's hard to decide who's better than the other.

    Biff and Rob sing great live and on their records!!!! HAIL SAXON AND JUDAS PRIEST!!!!!!!

  • @Schalke234 yeah they re both great...its just that saxon are more on classik rock and priest are more into metal..but they re both legends!

  • @Schalke234 ☠

  • Comment removed

  • @Schalke234 but what the hell.... judas is better band... i love saxon but judas is the fucking best fucking awesome band...

  • @textera147 mate you are a fukn COCK. give credit where it's fukn DESERVED. don't know who this is pointed at,either textera or schalke234. but which eva 1 it is, your a fukn COCK

  • Biff ist absolutely the nicer guy! Rob Halford seems like a litte garden gnome. Sorry...

  • @Schalke234 Yeah...like Priest would ever do a fuckin' SAXON song..right..

  • That's Saxon's video "Wheels of Steel"

  • Much better judas priest

  • thats a great cover. But priest slay.

  • The band seems to be playing it like the original version while the singer is (making it his own). Don't mess with something if it isn't broke.

  • Should always mess with it, otherwise it's not a cover. It's called a cover, not a copy, for a reason. A cover should always inject the performers sound into it, ALOT. Why invent the wheel twice?

  • I respect that,make it your own,but, make it with the intencity that is in this song,which is what the band seems too be doing a great job of,yet the vocals seem to be going in a slower,soft spoken laidback direction,just not my style i guess.

  • THE BEST HEAVY METAL BANDS \m/

  • Well, I have to admit, I like Saxons cover better! But!, this was a very poor attempt to match a studio recording with video clips from a concert.

  • well saxon and priest

    ecxelent bands .

    but i love saxon

    Long live metal

  • Priest are my fave band but it has to be said - Saxon pwn this song!

    Brilliant! Kickarse!

  • I love Judas Priest, and saxon, but i gotta say this does sound much better, more heavy, and great singing

  • Both are good . But the original is still a bit better. But Saxon do a hell of a good job whit the cover !!!

  • Priest and saxon are my favourite bands around, and saxon did a damn good job covering this track!.........

    always a blast to see priest and saxon perform live!! kick ass bands!!!!

  • bull... fucking... shit..... any proper metal fan wouldnt say that.

  • GOD DAMNED GOOOOOOOOOOOD Track... I love JP, but I think this version is better..... :)

  • The album is:

    A Tribute To Judas Priest. Legends Of Metal

  • GREAT!!!

    But Saxon have not songs like this; so Saxon can't beat Judas Priest in their territory...

    I mean: Judas Priest and Saxon are both great bands but i can't vote... well i prefer Judas songs ^^

  • I love how Saxon didn't butcher the song. This is actually a damn good cover.

  • УХ БЛЯ ОХУЕТЬ ПРОСТО!!!!!!!!!!

  • Anyone know which album this is on? I've been looking forever.

    Love the cover, just can't beat the original, though :P.

  • Screaming For Vengeance

  • I mean which Saxon album is this on?

  • it's on a Priest covers album.

  • Priests ,Sabbath, and other early bands helped create metal.

    Saxon and the others from the British Wave of Heavy Metal helped bring back its popularity.

    They're both important bands.

  • saxon is the most underrated and unheard heavy metal band . they are masters. i am metal dan

  • Saxon's Strong Arm of the Law is a classic to be compared with Priest's Living after Midnight..Glenn's solo and Paul's on their respective songs are HM Beauty

  • great head-banging cover!

  • Both bands are Great in there own right

    im more of a priest fan myself since i was very young.

  • nice Painkiller-esque touch at the start.

  • wow! Awesome! First cover of Priest that I've ever enjoyed.

  • cool

  • Saxon is great no doupt

  • Priest need to do a Saxon cover then we will know who's better.

  • Wow INCREDIBLE VERSION!

    Saxon Is My 3rd Favorite Heavy Metal Band (After Priest & Racer-X)

    Saxon Fantastic & This Is Brilliant Version, But Nothing Is Like Priest! HAIL THE METAL GODS!

  • no man listen to some of their new songs, i admit their old songs were not that good but now they kick ass

  • I say the oldschool stuff from saxon kicks any teeny powermetals ass!

  • saxon is one of the few bands that could do a good version of this great judas priest song

    i love byford and the rest too haha

    they know how to rock

  • saxon will be always the best and this cover is great, biff is the best singer of the old wave at present

  • Are you joking? Saxon is a great band, no doubt about that.

    But you can´t compare them to the Metal Gods!

  • Im not joking, you just have to listen to the last works of saxon and the last works of judas. Judas are great and I love them but at present Saxon has a better sound and more powerfull.

  • Saxon is great yeah, but Priest are the Metal Gods.

  • yep saxon has a unique sound and biffs voice is deffo stronger now than Halfords.

    Both legendary metal bands, Priest a little more for the mainstream fan perhaps...

  • priest

  • Saxon is one of the best Metal bands ever, and this is a pretty darned good cover. No, it's not as good as the Priest version, but it's close, and it's got a really cool vibe. Good stuff!

  • lol its wheels of steel...

  • like this saxon one but priest is better

  • That was a remarkably good cover. Well done, Saxon.

  • judas priest is better!

  • Good stuff ! Excellent version by Saxon of this Priest classic. Thanks for posting this!

  • Saxon were the first to hit the charts, they pathened the way...

  • agreed Saxon had 4 top ten albums between 1980 and 1982 they were a very big band in europe in those days, and they pay a great hommage to the Priest here.

  • i must admit they did pretty well.

    aspects saxon and judas priest in one song is amazing

  • Cool shit!

  • if ya look close its dubbed

  • what a great video. saxon added their own style to it (as subtle as it was). i kinda wish they put this on a record.

  • there is an unofficial CD called warrior king where you can find this and other rare tracks. Long live to the eagle.

  • great palying by saxon.

    wish a lot of other covers were like this.

    amazing cover

  • i think saxon's version is better in the guitars not so much in the singing, if halford was singing with saxon's version of the guiars than it would be the best metal song i would have ever heard

  • This is an amazing cover just as good as the Priest one... well almost

  • the post below is to kranen1

  • I've been a priest fan for so many years now, and I've to admit that SAXON's performance is at least as good as Priest's. This is especially true for the time when Dave Holland used to play the drums, the SCREAMING FOR VENGEANCE shows being the exception.

    But there is an exception: I think that Priest's way of performing the song has been improved when Scott Travis took over drum sticks. Listen to the song performed during the PAINKILLER tour - OUTSTANDING!!!!

  • Priest & Saxon are both excellent bands. This is the first time I've ever heard anyone attempt to do this song other than Priest.

    AWESOME!!!

  • wow.. this is much better than Priests version Im afraid..

    ride like the wind SAXON!!

    \,,/

  • Pretty Good.....No Rob Halford though.

  • Judas make this song better, but I think Saxon is a better band.

  • Saxon is great but they are not Metal Gods like Judas Priest. Judas Priest is the best, accept it :)

  • Judas Prist is great but they are not so strong like Biff and the rest of the band...Saxon is like a eagle in the sky...they are free, feel freedom and they,ll never surrender!!!They are kings...power and the glory with all of metalheads!!!

  • Whatever xD Judas Priest are the metal gods and the best Heavy Metal band in the world. Saxon is great too, but not like Priest :)

  • dude I just have to say amen!!!!!! Long Live To The Eagle!!!! never surrender brothers

  • priest are great but you have to accept saxon are too , i mean priest ar
