  • NOT HIS BEST... BUT NOT BAD

  • WOw this is...........good stuff

  • How can they have 15 thumbs down ?

    Although I'm not a UK fan, fuck you guys, you'll never do better even in another life !

  • fuck it's a shame I'm french, these guys have God behind them, as Descartes, I love them but I hate Newton :p Will forgive anything to Albion's lies if they keep feeding us with such artists !

  • JP is my favorite... I started listening them when I was a young geek (13) in 82 !

  • @bpolleri2008 sorry about you being french

  • @kole11000 lol

  • Black Sabbath, Maiden, and Deep Purple may be the fathers of metal, no argument there...but Judas Priest are the Gods of Metal (and there is no argument there).

  • @jdspreest hey no being rude or anything but u are a little misinformed. Iron Maiden arent one of the fathers of metal, the main reason because iron maiden came after judas priest. just thought id let u know.

  • thumbs up if you were stomping at least one of your feet while listening to this song and staying in beat with the kick ass drum line....

  • One of the most famous western h-m songs eastward behind the iron curtain. According to my father and his friends (b.1960+)

  • Cracks me up Halford is chewing gum while singing, so unconventional! LOL

  • Playback?..its a pity :-D

  • HONOR TO JUDAS PRIEST, The mythical father of heavy metal

  • @alexrourke1984 the fathers of heavy metal are Black Sabbath, Iron Maiden and Deep Purple.

  • @Deep33Purple sure, they are fathers, but Priest are the Gods of Metal..

  • I was in the audience on this TOTP. I took about 5 takes to get the visual right and Rob couldn't mime. I didn't mind though, Priest were my fav band! This is still an awesome track.

  • is that michea jacksons other glove?lol \m/ \m/

  • Comment removed

  • i love this albumn

  • Comment removed

  • Judas Priest (Rock 'N' Roll) is my drug

  • I'm ready for 10/21 & 10/22...Hail to the Priest!!!

  • Whoo Hoo!! So excited. Nov 4th SLC. Love you Rob. Miss you K.K. Downing.

  • Esto debe ser un himno!!

  • I detect homophobes around here. I dont care, haters gonna hate and clever beings do not care

  • Look at the Shit they hired to be in this video....

  • Comment removed

  • michael jackson:king of pop, elvis:the king..ROB HALFORD:METAL GOD

  • this is an ANTHEM!!

  • I remember seeing this on TOTP when I was a kid (about 8?)... Back then I thought it was a football song they sung on the terraces... lol

    Wiser if not older now and Priest do indeed rule, no question.

  • @drkj3di Manchester blows.

  • These guys changed the world forever with the sound of their music and the image they brought. They are true pioneers. I can hardly wait for the day to visit the U.K. to see the birth place of metal. Rob Halford coming out and his activism for gay rights was done before the laws of land started to be revised. With all of the teen suicides and bullying over the recent few years,Rob is a person that came out. I am sure he helped others when he did.

  • Wow... This sucks... Not heavy...

    Sorry... Love some Priest, but?

  • FUCK YEAH WE ALWAYS STAND TOGETHER

    METAL IS FOREVER

  • As a straight female I agree with JeffNeroHardy - that Rob is a very sexy man!!!

  • It's a real shame what happened with Dave Holland. I've always thought he fit the bands sound well. I really like the Les Binks era and Scott Travis' work on Painkiller.

  • Awesome song!

  • You dipshits ever think that its the audio track that's out of sync?

  • wow...bad lip sync

    

  • amazin XD love this men

  • cadê o audio original desse vídeo??

  • Saying this as a straight male, but Rob is one sexy motherfucker!

  • Oh for the days when Heavy Metal bands could get on primetime music shows. ..

  • people were older at a younger age back then

  • Lip Sync? seriously?

  • @SuperHairyDick In those days TV shows wanted the band to pretend to play and have the studio recording behind. I think they did this to stop the bands from saying something they may consider offensive so it wouldn't be aired on live TV. I'm sure that if it was up to Priest they'd much rather perform live any day.

  • @SLASHdaROCKER Another reason for playing this way was record company driven. They (the record company) paid money to the shows for premotion of their product - records. They wanted a no risk great sound. 

  • @SuperHairyDick

    Yea I think on alot of the BBC shows at the time, top of the pops they had to lip sync.

    Now the Old Grey Whistle I think might have been live, could be wrong.

  • @rbbreeding His a bad lip syncer lol

  • blonde girl at 0:20 nice hair hahaha

  • BBC was so fucking cheesy making bands lip sync back then, bands like The Who and Nirvana would make it obvious they weren't playing like Keith Moon air drumming and Kurt Cobain holding his hands a good foot away from his guitar

  • rob in those days looked like he could have sung in soft cell instead of marc almond,oh aye

  • love priest!!!!

  • I don't know why, but I find Dave Holland's drumming utterly addictive. His style suited Priest perfectly.

  • @GoldenRatio2 Les Binks was better

  • @WolfgangVonPoserkila: Technically yes, his playing was more advanced, but technicality isn't everything.

  • @GoldenRatio2 yes but come on, Dave Holland was possibly the worst drummer Priest had; not that he was bad, I think he was good, it's just that Priest had amazing drummers throughout their career. (With the possible exception of John Hinch). I never really understood why they kept him for so long. To me it seemed like they'd get rid of him after Screaming for Vengeance, but they kept him for almost a decade. Only they know why they didn't keep Les. Les was the best (after Scott of course).

  • @SLASHdaROCKER: Well, a lot of Priest fans would probably agree with you that Dave Holland was the weakest drummer the band ever had, and to be totally honest, I can see why. It's just personal preference that I prefer him over the likes of say John Hinch or Scott Travis. Perhaps I'm a little biased because my favourite Judas Priest album is Point of Entry and I really like the drum sound (and for that matter, the playing style) on that record.

  • @SLASHdaROCKER what about Simon Phillips?

  • @Fluffyfluffyhead he's very good, but he was never a real member of the band, he only played as a session musician on the album Sin After Sin

  • True metal crowd ! lol

  • 0:45 Bobby's eyes look either green or hazel.

  • I'm horny for Bobby! :9

  • Ok, so who had ANY doubts Halford was gay after watching this? 2:12 to 2:18??

  • that warms my heart

  • dude the title is wrong its BBQ not BBC (for the stupid people that cant underteand jokes this is a joke)

  • Judas Priest are immortal ...the farewell tour can't stop us rockin with your music! thanks for everything

    forever defenders of the faith

  • sucks

  • Oh - first I've heard "United" at my shcool discotec in 1985...- inL'viv(Ukraine) - there was a time of Iron Courtain...Courtain fall - USSR disappear - heavy metal Gods alive!Rock forever!

    Olexandr

  • I'd like to hear a band cover this

  • @ROONYdaRUDEBOY great idea...me too.

  • @ROONYdaRUDEBOY It better not be "Glee"!

  • I saw Judas Priest, Iron Maiden and Ac/Dc in 1980...nOT A BaD year if I do say so myself..lol.

  • @nostalgia43

    EXACTLY....

  • I hate lipsinking

  • @lem1968a1 lipsYncing... tis whoever uploaded the videos fault ive seen this footage with original audio before

  • LOL the crowd

  • @teidenzero

    hahaha yeah

    they look like crazy metalheads xD

  • So this is where Michael Jackson got the one glove thing from? lol

  • @holyfuckjustsignmeup Actually I think Michael took it from Freddie Mercury who weared one glove in mid 70-ies concerts.And the idea that he listened to that type of music makes me laugh but who knows?

  • That voice!! Hail the metal god!!!

  • Blimey, this takes me back.

  • @evilaggression - Couldnt have said it better.

  • Rob is so awesome. if you notice, he's chewing gum...lmao

    \m/-_-\m/

  • Totally playback

  • I quote the comedian Steve Hughes.. "Gay men are not tough?..Tough?! they fuck men." "Go back to your pussy lovin friends" lol.. Still who cares.. He is the best in Heavy metal.

  • halford may be gay, but he could still get more pussy than any other gay man alive

  • i was 20 yrs old back in 1981 and i was a roadie for The Priest and Rob was the coolest dude i have ever met so if u dont like priest then dont listen to them.

  • @cannabisman618

    you are fucking amazing you met him back then jesus fucking christ............lucky so LUCKYYYYYYYYYYYYYY:( :( :(

    and scernos....that comedian is a fucking retard. alexander the great would fuck you up and pretty sure he was bi. so was half the guys back then and they could all fuck you up. and that stupid comedian lol

  • British Steel is so boring, its all about 70's Priest

  • @Amebixfan _ Les Binks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • @exc123 And Simon Phillips!

  • I fuckin' love priest and british steel but this chorus fucks up the whole song..

  • @Metalpefki This is a classic Priest song and you claim " I fucking love Priest" you don't know the half of it about them if that's what you think. Metal up mofo!

  • @guitarzero man get a life learn to accept different opinions..the fact that I don't really like this specific song doesn't mean I know nothing about them..ok I know it's a classic one but I never really liked it..what's so wrong about it?

  • @Metalpefki Get a life? Yeah I will give you that. I usually spend my time acting like an adult and not typing pointless comments like all the dumbasses on youtube( not saying your a dumbass OK) but don't you think that if you felt the need to comment it would to "praise" them instead of just uselessly saying what you don't like about a band you love? Would it not be better to say anything at all? Do you have plans for Thanksgiving?

  • @guitarzero man I just expressed my opinion..I praise them in other videos..

    anyway I'll give up pointlessly quarelling with someone I don't even know..cheers

  • Who cares about Rob's sexual preferences? He owns it and if your watching this video, then you'll agree. He is a Fuckin Metal Stud and I love him for who he is.

  • Rob Halford may voluntarily have sex with men, but Linkin Park, Korn, and crap like that are all gayer bands.

  • They are lip-synching here, aren't they? This sounds just like the studio album. No wonder Rob looks so bored. Hilarious they haul all those big-ass amps to the stage just for show. lol I know everyone loves to hate on this song, but I think it's totally awesome and addictive, even if its not their usual style.

  • This is the only JP song that sounds a bit gay. LOL no offense they are metal gods but I had to say it :)

  • Vintage PRIEST ... I love it!

    Thanks for posting!

    Rock on!!

  • This chorus is horrible. Well, they got their minds right, Electric Eye is right around the corner guys, don't worry, you'll be forgiven, lol.

  • "JP" soccer-song??? beaten by "Queen : We Are the Champions" .-)

  • dave is wearing the right glove rob is wearing the left.one

  • Hehe its play back here they mime to the studio version.... Top Of The Pops forced that I guess

  • rob halford looks bored out of his mind!!

  • he is just serious ^_^ Maybe Tired too :D

  • Priest are the only band that could do a song this anthemic and poppy and still make it raw and heavy. Speed metal, power metal, progressive metal, hard rock, within the realm of metal they can pretty much do anything and pull it off.

  • @fuzzleredmenn Sounds a lot like Queen for me.

  • @fuzzleredmenn Simply they are the best musician ever, ESPECIALLY ROB HALFORD no one can touch him even as a writer, he´s the BEST EVER for every genre

  • pitty they try to do a queen we wiil rock u or we are the chapions not the best of ether bands

  • Their lip syncing the original studio song, aren't they?

  • the microphone it looks like a marker or pencil, jajaja

  • corny yet strangely awesome too

  • if it wernt for halford i dont think the terminator would have been as awesome either, i mean look at halford here he coulda played the terminator if he was built like he was durin the painkiler tour

  • Nah, the look was around before that... Bike gangs etc.. See Marlon Brando in the Wild One.

  • Dulbeat, ur such a fkn idiot, this is a killer classic song, who cares if the guy is gay, get over it.

  • paul stanley?

  • Como me gusta este video. Los adolescentes todos vestidos a la moda y de repente salen judas vestidos de cuero.

  • This song is an epic win :D

    Oh, Glenn. He was so cuuuuute...

    This song has been stuck in my head for like a week now...it's AMAZING! Priest ROCKS so HARD!!!!!!!

  • This is a very good song!!! I love it

  • Damn, Dave Holland. Great drummer. Too bad about what he did...

  • Why what did he do?

  • He was recently found guilty of child molestation.

  • dude i bet the boy said that shit just so his parents could get money

    dave holland said he didnt do that shit

  • whatd he do?

  • oh ok...i dont believe that kid

  • Where the fuck did you hear that

  • halford is so cool JUDAS THE METAL GODS

  • God! I love the way K.K. looked back then!

  • @GypsyFairy69 he should have kept the hat

  • is this live ??

  • Nope it's mimed, but still cool though.

  • dude........he freaks me out staring at the camera lol.......anyways hes cool

  • lol!! that has to be one of the weirder moments!!

  • Nice playback :)

  • judas rules...oh yea btw brendon small reminds me of rob

  • beat is infectious and that chorus is epic they should play that before a fucking war breakthrough what a morale boost of a song

  • Priest's best years from 75-82. This isn't live. Doesn't matter they rule.

  • ian hill is a sick bass player

  • Personally i like Ian because of his "mexican beard". I bet he loves Beer!

  • Thankfully you're not a judge because your brain is the same size as a very small hazelnut. If you don't like Priest, go & listen to Justin Timberlake & Boyzone. You'll be happy with the teeny-boppers.

  • This is classic priest u dumb fuck. Piss off if u dont like it. twat!

  • eggboy1. Now you really are a classic. I'm not going to piss off so please try and at least make a humorous comment as the usual insults are like you, quite boring.

  • Is this just the album version over a video? It really doesn't sound live at all

  • So Judas Priest dipped their toe in the proverbial pool of pop.Big fucking deal.Put British Steel on a screaming assed stereo and tell me the album doesn't rock.Piss off and take a backseat naysayers.

  • UNITED FROM BRITISH STEEL !!! good song and nice video , 10 points

  • This is the fucking jam!! One of my favorite songs.

  • Judas Priest haven't HAD a shit phase @ grumpyoldgit.

  • emeraldxm If you think this isn't shit then you need to get your ears waxed

  • I can assure you this isn't shit. This is early Judas Priest & Judas Priest have never made shit records. May I suggest you go and listen to your little Jimmy Osmond LPs. You'll be much happier that way.

  • emeraldxm. You seem to think you have your finger on the pulse but in fact it's stuck up your arse. For educational purposes most Priest fans would regard the period between 1974 and 1979 as 'early'. Priest were in fact formed in 1968. I for one first saw them in 1978 prior to this crap.

    Please do take my advice though and go to your Doctor and get your fucking tinnitus sorted.

  • Most Priest fans? Let's see your proof then. I assume you have independent statistics to back up that claim. I await your documentation. As for Priest fans, I've been one since Sin after Sin was released. Priest don't need fans like you who slag them off.

  • If you think it's shit, why are you here?

  • emeraldxm. Ok let me narrow the definition down. Most Priest fans of a certain age. By this I would say of an age of 38+. And most of those I would say that would regard this as crap. You are the exception to the rule. This is nothing more than puerile commercialism on a par with shite like Queen's fat bottomed girls and bicycle race. But then again you probably think they're great.

    You know where to stick your independent statistics.

    Oh, and I've been a fan since Rocka Rolla. Big deal.

  • Most Priest fans of a certain age? Since when have you been the judge & jury? How can you talk for ALL fans of a certain age? I don't understand people like you? You claim to like bands but do nothing but bitch & slag them off. Hardly a fan, are you?

  • emeraldxm. I do understand you. Priest must love fans like you. Easy to please and of a low musical intellect. The type of fan that doesn't criticise a band no matter how Neanderthal the songs can get. If Priest covered Bob the builder I'm sure you'd lavish praise on it.

  • So you have a high music intellect, do you? When did you aquire the authority to decide you're right & everyone else is wrong? i'm intrigued to know why your opinion is high & mighty.

  • emeraldxm. When did I say that I'm right & everyone else is wrong? It's just an opinion. I should re-phrase my previous comment to say that you have a general low intellect and your infantile boyzone/timberlake comments only emphasises my point. Maybe you should converse with eggboy1 as he's obviously of the same intellectual dwarfism.

  • You are displaying classic signs of small man syndrome. You try & step on others to make yourself appear taller. Your slurs & highly inaccurate conclusions say everything about you & nothing about me. You must be very lonely.

  • emeraldxm. Small man syndrome? Next you're gonna tell me you're a Doctor. Now you're infantile,intellectually challenged and delusional. Life must be tough for you.I was joking about being sectioned but hey, as the saying goes 'never a truer word said in jest'.

  • The gas man comes, the cat swivels its bum for the gas man to see. Gas man put spanner down n flare his nostrils to accept the cat musk backside muscle spray. Tomcat fur stick up n gas man take photograph.

  • robert halford is gay. got anything against gay people?

    homophobic not-so-freely-thinking little 12 year-old brat...

  • dude, if you don't like halford, then don't surf Judas Priest videos. he's their lead singer. there's absolutely no idea in surfing around youtube only to find stuff you dont like so you can abuse the forums, you're a fucking /\/00l3 04 1143

    and if you don't do uber leet then just fuck off, on second thoughts just fuck off will you?

  • How old are you mightMax1986 really? Born in '86, I doubt that. Anyone who's 22 years old won't behave like a 4 year old kid. You obviously have no life, as you search the tube for things you hate. Here's one for you, get out and get a life instead of watching stuff you hate, or go back to watching Green Day videos... Now stuff that in your pipe, troll! ;)
