  • saxon featuring ex glitter band drummer pete gill

  • saxon featuring ex glitter band drummer pete gill...not a lot of people know that!

  • Let me Explain, Led was such a big band, if someone says that led was metal, no one can say they not, if they say that its hard rock, no one can say they not, its like Iron Maiden today, no one can say maiden is prog metal, but it its (today)

  • Yeahh! NWOBHM at it's best

  • Saxon is awesom, straight foward and in your face. The way its meant to be! Great singer, balls + !

  • Let keep the Respect! Theres enough Metal for all...the 80's is just a great time...and there was no problem in a party with a little Metal....Hell Yeah!

  • Two legends! HM Forever and Ever!!

  • @Grinderblack in union we stand!

  • Biff was HOTTT! ;)

  • Saxon's tunes are much more catchy. Priest's (who I prefer) were more rugged and hardcore. Kind of hard to compare to be honest.

  • Don't forget about ACCEPT & Sacrifice!!! \m/ETAL RULES!!!

  • @vikingmetalhead1 Accept FTW!!!

  • It´s fine with Judas, I can´t say I don´t like them because t´s not so but I believe that SAXON is the best after the IRON MAIDEN gods

  • Record sales have proved that

    priest are still the metal gods,,,,sorry saxon.

  • @trendyjon hey douchebag......sales mean nothing,except maybe in a popularity contest....the fact is,its an opinion,i personally like both.so..both are metal gods

  • @blaspherian Saxon are crap, The mighty preist kick all their asses and yours.

  • @trendyjon

    you talk shit , priest kick arses (UK) not asses ...

    yes , BUT you listen to Saxon greatest hits live , SUPERB

  • @blaspherian I saw saxon live this summer and they still know how to put up an awesome show :D it was really great

  • lOOOOOOOOOOOOOL i can not resist to brake down and laugh until every time i see this halford era it just look like prince charming lol

    btw he is fucking awesome but i'm sure i will get a lot of thumbs down

  • @asgardjuan I now what you mean. Priest are way my favourite metal act BUT he certainlly did a great Tim Brooke Taylor impression on the British Steel tour!

  • ...Steels of weel... ;)

  • la puta del coño que buena combinacion.........

  • Oh man, this is OLD!

  • judas forever

  • any one that says Judas Priest is a poser band you are so stupid i mean wtf

  • I just love the way the drummer chews his gum, its like f**k you MF

  • At the time its fair to say Saxon, Maiden, Sabbath, Priest and even Led Zep were in the same league of metal/rock, but with time we see Priest & Sabbath as the Pioneers & Godfathers of MeTaL

  • Maiden played Running Free live on TOTP back then. Metal gods!

  • saxon and priest both rock!

  • love them both.

  • priest is dubbed thats not live

  • So is the saxon song mate. This is totp.Everything was mimed.

  • SAXON FOREVER>>>>>>>>>

  • SUPER!

  • "Overoth" wastes the pair of them but I do like Saxon, saw them several times Excellent band

  • Saxon are the best british band ever

  • Priest owns saxon, but saxons ok.

  • Priest > Saxon

  • Saxon easily over Priest.

  • Priest easily over Saxon.

  • Duas das melhores bandas de Heavy Metal de todos os tempos,The Best....

  • Tim Brooke Taylor

  • none of you fuckers know rock

  • Except by the metal band, you would aprecciate it a lot for sure, hehe

    You Village People fan

  • nobody in Saxon is gay, only Halford out of Priest, the two gayest Metal bands ever are poison and cinderellla lol

  • Who is gay in Cinderellla? I did not know about that. But I know about C.C devil.

  • @jackscfcfan gay or not gay, are you sure they are metal?

  • suck a chode silly jew

  • hate to break it to you, metal has been around in some form for over 40 years. there is a reason they called it the NEW WAVE of british heavy metal. Meaning ac/dc, thin lizzy, sabbath, scorps, uriah heep and the almighty deep purple were the 1st wave.

  • umm, nope? ...it's new wave of BRITISH heavy metal, so ac/dc, thin lizzy, or scorps can't be the first wave, 'couse they're not from britain

  • NWOBHM also inc Iron Maiden

  • AC/DC were born in scotland but moved to australia didnt they to make fame?

  • no bon moved to australia from scotland as a child so did angus and malcolm, angus and malcolm both started a band in their teens and eventually the first line up was formed after people coming and going there was phill rudd (australian), mark evans (australian) and bon malcolm and angus scottish so they didnt move from scotland to find fame they all grew up down under

  • Tbh i dont even class those bands as metal and neither do them selfs

  • Well, labels are so strange, because some artists don't like the label given to then by the media. These 70's hard rock bands use to hate the "heavy metal" term. It's said that Judas Priest was one of the first bands that assumed: "Yes, we are Heavyk Metal!!!". Lemmy Kilmister thinks Mothorhead just like a fast rock and roll band. Let's forget the labels and listen the sound!

  • Biff looks like Geddy Lee/Rush circa 1978.

  • Ha good one you made me giggle there!  The funny thing is when I were little I used to have Biff's hairstyle hahaha!

  • British STEEL + Wheels of STEEL = 2(HEAVY METAL)

  • judas el #1

  • Add Iron Maiden and you have by far the three top metal bands ever. I swear if I hear that Led Zepplin is a metal band again I'll kill someone lol.

  • Depends how you define metal. I have seen metalheads scream blind that The Who are not heavy metal. Personally I regard Zep as Prog Rock.

  • The Who, heavy metal??? Not a chance. Classic Pop Rock at best.

    Zeppelin??? Yeah, classic Prog Rock, I'd agree with, but certainly not heavy metal.

    Metal is about aggression...nothing aggressive about "A Whole Lotta Love"....if you know what I mean.

    That said, I've recently discovered Saxon, and I don't know what took me so long. I've always heard the name, but was never familiar with their stuff, but I like it...good ol' NWOBHM stuff.

  • Woo NWOBHM are awesome! Yes I agree Zeppelin aren't metal sounding. People tell me AC/DC are metal. To me that's like saying Bill Haley and his Comets are metal! Imagine that.

    When Biff was interviewed by Metal Hammer (methinks) he said that back then people were denying they were heavy metal and he said it wasn't until Heavy Metal Thunder that people started to feel more of a connection. Or something. I read that in the Strong Arm of the Law re-release booklet anyway.

  • @Lincoln6Echo1

    was no such thing as "metal" when the who in their prime mate, bands like the Who,Led Zep,Uriah Heep,Deep Purple even Status Quo are Not METAL but they sure helped to create its sound. Real metal started with Sabbath and Priest (both from Birmingham) then later the NWOBHM bands that sprung up from bedrooms, squats and garages all over the UK Saxon led these cos they already had a record deal with Carrere (french labael) Saxon rock better now than ever go check em out live ..

  • @Lincoln6Echo1 - Recently discovered Saxon!! OMG you must be a baby. I take it you werent around in the 80s. You know your music though., I agree with your comments. Interested to hear your views on Deep Purple, Rainbow and ACDC.

  • @Lincoln6Echo1 in 1973 led zeppelin was, certanily eavy metal...nowadays, not even saxon..in teh ed...everything is rock fuckin' roll...do like me! drink n' enjoy the rough sound of the guitars....(i'm fuckin drunk)

  • @Hatchetman6971 everybody says that led zeppelin is a metal band, thats true! they arent heavy metal, any of their songs. They were hard, I know, and they were an influence for heavy metal bands, but they werent! first (classic) metal band was Black Sabbath!

  • The irony with this video is that Bif and Rob had a homosexual affair when during this time period, according to Rolling Stone Magazine. All those tough metal bikers were idolizing the very thing they say they hated. WHAT A BUNCH OF CLOSET FAGGOTS! lololol! Anyway, RIP Bif. We'll miss you.

  • @RandomSpewBros I think you are messed up man. You are the only one who has " this new news about biff'. either way i could care less.

  • @RandomSpewBros ..and you believe the shite they put in Rolling Stone? As for RIP Biff- when did he start pushing up the daisies?

  • @Hatchetman6971 Sabbath, Priest, Metallica, Greatest Metal Bands. Iron Maiden ain't that good. Agreed Zeppelin isn't Metal haha.

  • @NonstopTrapdoor I still think IM should be grouped into that clique. I think no metal band has as many fans. They can't play small venues. Their gigs have 100,000 to 200,000 people at every concert. Something they are doing right !!!!

  • Led Zeppelin was everything man, Folk, Classic, Rock, ever hear, When The Levee Breaks, Communication Breakdown? They were everything.

  • @Hatchetman6971 hey man no jokin but led zep invented heavy metal,listen to some of there sheeet and it's all there heavy metal head bangin.

  • @Hatchetman6971 in 1974 led zeppelin was heavy metal...nowadays ot even saxon...but, who cares...it's all rock n roll in teh end!!

  • @Hatchetman6971 Right there with you buddy.

    Hamish from Australia. NWOBHM!

  • @Hatchetman6971

    who the fuck says led zeppelin is heavy metal no!! they are hard rock the begining of heavy metal

  • @larawora You are right, I have always thought the same..!

  • zomg how much does Rob Halford look like Tim Brook Taylor from the Goodies in this vid

    kickass songs and bands tho

  • Yep I agree but Ian Hill woulxn't like it u said he looked Bill Oddie

  • ευχαριστω φιλε!!!που το θυμηθηκες!σκληρο για μενα, αλλα καλο!! 5*

  • Xreiazontai kai ta sklira pou kai pou na mas ksipnane ligo,na mas tarakounane :-P

    Einai palia klassika kommatia...

  • Thanks for the share dxakis !

    I remember the wild days listening to Judas Priest!!!!

    You probably weren't even born yet!

  • Umm nope  =(

  • cool SAXON AND JUDAS THE BEST ¡¡¡¡¡

  • Great, great, great immortal music.

  • love steve zodiac out of vardis where are they now

  • Jebite se svi vi pederi,Judas Priest je pravi i jedini heavy metal band.I Saxon je dobar naravno.A svi vi sto komentarisete o ovome ovde ste govna i nemate pojma sta je heavy metal.Glupe budale balavci usrani.Vise nikad niko dok ima sveta nece napraviti ono sto je napravio Judas Priest,niko nikad nece imati Painkiller.Mars govna jedna

  • I hate these stupid comparisons. I was there, saw them, bought the T shirts and banged my head with the rest. To be frank, to judge both bands on two songs is pathetic.

    Lost interest in Saxon after Crusader, the hair extensions were laughable but the early stuff was inspired so can't fault them there.

    To say JP are soft is criminal. They are far more showy then Saxon (Biff was a bit immobile sometimes) and Glenn Tipoton, for me, is as good as anyone.

    Hey! Enjoy what hits your spot guys!

  • how about the song most played on classic rock radio is you got another thing coming

  • Funny that, I'm pushing 43, and I was so up my own arse when I was 16 that I thought I knew it all ... but even now I don't?

    Judas were soft, Saxon weren't ... but Motorhead were the real deal.

  • Why in fucks name do any of you figure your limp dicked comments have any relevance to those of us who were actually THERE during the NWOBHM ?

    Dickheads.

  • Don't all of you 16-year-old 'haven't been there' 'seen it' or been out with a bird dickheads talk out of your fuckin' backsides...

    Leave a comment when your balls've dropped.

  • stfu about judas... i love saxon AND judas, but judas always stayed true to their style, even when they knew they wouldnt get the commercial success. but after saxons first 2 albums they got soo fuckin glam.

  • Well you'd fuckin' know being 14 wouldn't you love.

    Try being English and 43. I'll give you the lowdown sometime.

  • Never got the judus priest thing. Underplayed and over sung in my book. Saxon were great, fantastic teenage cock rock.

  • Judas SUCKS, of course Saxon kick ass!!

    Judas for a GAYS

  • fuck you idiot! YOU CANT NOT LOVE JUDAS PRIEST AND STILL LOVE SAXON

    JUDAS PRIEST, IRON MAIDEN, SAXON, MANOWAR, W.A.S.P., ACCEPT are the truest HEAVY metal not any other genre of metal but HEAVY METAL!!!! YOU STUPID FUCK

  • what the fuck are you talking about lexxonn? You know nothing. Stop now before you make a bigger fool o0f yourself.

  • what a retard....

  • the message below is to hellpatrol92.

  • yeah, Judas is just a poser band, Saxon much better than Judas and kick ass. Many bands better than Judas.

  • oh i don't thing so, why is Judas a poserband?

  • why don't you ask Judas?

  • Dont compare

    Saxon eat Judas. Judas not invented Metal, They are just a hardrock poser band.

    Saxon more feeling and groove, not Judas

  • yes i agree with heavymetalgary... Judas Priest is the best Heavy Metalband on earth

  • absolute bollocks!

  • Will you all assholes shut the fuck up!!! I know Saxon is a great band but no one beats the Priest!!!

  • WTF?!

    First, Saxon Are NOT Real Rock, They're TRUE HEAVY METAL!

    Second, Whatever...

  • Saxon much better than Judas. Saxon real Rock!, Judas just a poser band. Saxon Ruleeees!!!

  • Ignorance give wings to fools.

    Priest was the first true heavy metal band (i love Sabbath, but imo they doesn't have the "metallic" sound, they are just heavy).

  • Saxon and Judas Priest rules! \m/,(-_-)

  • much better Saxon, Judas just a comercial and poser band, Saxon better

  • Ohhh Com'On! Which Priest song do you heard?! That stupid Overrated "LIVING AFTER MIDNIGHT"?!

    I Bet you don't Heard All Their "Defenders Of The Faith"!

    Jawbreaker, Freewheel Burning, The Sentinel (One of the best Metal songs ever!)

    Listen to other JP songs and then judge!

    And what the hell you idiots putting thumbs up for that stupid mindless comment?! RETARDS!

  • yes, but all these songs and Judas albums are very boring. Saxon so better music than Judas.

  • well priest did come out before saxon but priest didnt really get their sound together as we know it today till 1980, saxon got theirs together in 1980 after 1 year of recording , you cant deny saxon are a great band even judas priest and metallica are fans of them, priest are not perfect by any means or beyond criticism, point of entry is considered a disaster by the band themselves,. try saxon -lionheart cd , you will be surprised how great they are.

  • mongoosecz, i know saxon is a grat band, i've never said they aren't. I love saxon, but I was just sayin that i prefer judas priest and that judas priest can't be a poser band because they were the first heavy metal band. Judas changed their sound, like saxon, but they're still a true heavy metal band. that's what i think.

  • mongoosecz1, you obviously know jack nothing about priest.

    both bands are great and lets leave it that way

  • living after midnight is fckn cool!

  • uhahuahua judas are in playback XD lol

  • a blast from the past of my youth...rock on boys

  • Olly's guitar sound is just stupendously growly - it'awesome

  • pretty good...

  • judas priest and saxon are the best bands on the planet. i hear they will tour together in 2008 , bring it fuckin  on , what a killer tour it would be.

  • Yeah , they will come to sweden rock festival :D and I will be there :D

  • Arn't Saxon with Motorhead this year? :o

  • Judas Priest and Saxon. What more you want?

  • Accept!

  • and KISS !! Then i would be ultimate ! manowar is to fresh to deal whit these rocker legends ! Rock On ! \,,/

  • judas priest is one of the best metal groups now. And "angel of retribution" (2005!) proves it.

  • Amen to that man. If it wasnt for Judas Priest we wouldnt have nearly as many metal bands today that we do. Judas Priest has got to be the most influential metal band of all time.

  • They probably are.

  • What I'm saying is that I saw Priest play live in '78 & '80, and that after that they stopped being 'progressive' heavy rock and the music became more simplified, straightforward and a cliche, IMHO. I didn't listen to a lot of metal in the '80s as it had lost much of the trippy stoner vibe from the '70s.

  • This was the time when both bands were starting to suck.

    Saxon had another couple of good albums in them (possibly), but Judas Priest blew it with 'British Steel' & turned into a comedy band.

  • what the hell are you talking about... have you heard painkiller? Fantastic. Sure Turbo was comedy, but witty comedy if you will.

  • I am currently listening to Wheels of Steel in hospital. I have macrocephalus, which causes a tripling in size of the head. However, I'm dressed as Rob halford and I feel a little better. God bless you all.

  • Hail Brother!

    Hope to overcome your problem

  • macrocephalus is a type of fish you idiot

  • WTF? No mention of the lip synching? Can't believe how fuckin' old I am!

  • I can't stop laughing !!! Do the Amps go up to 11 ?

  • Right, now follow that with a bit of Maiden and Motorhead...

    This is a superb NWOBHM video. Love the flying V guitars and the totally merciless riffing. Its just relentless - definitely music to lose your driving licence to....

  • I have this clip on dvd!!!

    Top Of The Top Must be back!!

  • Thanks for posting this!!! The gods of Metal will bless you.

  • I don't take no jive from no motorway pigs!

  • classic stuff!thanks for posting.

  • Git

  • grrrrrrrrr to you jacker. Im no puff im a brother of true metal and these guys are lords.

  • Only puffs would like this! I hope Rob Halford bums the lot of you!

  • denim&leather/spandex&studs;wh­at more do we need?

  • great songs great times the 80's!!!

  • Fuck yeah! Saxon and Preist! Can't get any better than that!

  • ...one of the first singles I ever bought - at the tender age of 12!!!

    Quite liked the songs but absolutely hated Biff Biford - you cannot admit to liking anyone with a name like that - sorry Biff!

  • Wow, he looks a little like Geddy Lee without the beak! I never thought of that. Thanks for posting. Peace.
