[xsol1dsn4kex]

[roy19621000]

love this song.and band as they was then .

[roy19621000]

this was my wifes song from me to her in them days lol

[metalobsessedl]

SO GLAD Metallica brought Diamond Head to our (metalheads) attention!

[nicoboy6666]

A real Diamond Head Will say YEahhhhhhh hooooo yeahhh

[superpunisher119]

fucking awesome!!

[MeTaLhEaD78943]

fuck yeah mother fuckers \m/

[DaemonicNimrod]

If history truly does repeat itself, then hopefully future up-and-coming metal bands who have been taking notes of the old-school will start producing quality music like this once again. Because uh - the current state of metal- and music in general- really SUCKS. It's good to know I have havens like this on the internet where I can listen to Diamond Head, Metal Church, and countless others who have fallen to obscurity through the years. This song is so fucking awesome. Thanks alpaccioli...

[Hughesy16LFC]

@DaemonicNimrod Do you not like the new bands e.g. Enforcer, Skullfist, Cauldron, Vektor, Steelwing, Hexen etc?

[urban2306]

@DaemonicNimrod Theres some sick Metal bands like this all over but no Record compaines sign them... idk why

[DaemonicNimrod]

@Gyphia Hellz yeah! Nice catch with your sharp ear :->

[bsufilms]

what does NWOBHM mean?

[smcgillis248]

@bsufilms

New Wave of British Heavy Metal to me it's just killer music.....Rock On!!

[DaemonicNimrod]

@bsufilms NWOBHM = New Wave Of British Heavy Metal

[LORDGOAT1976]

some of their other albums are not that good, compare to this one.

[lostruzzo]

this version of the song is weak, is it the original?

[hehhee1000]

@lostruzzo At least it's not the same as on Lightning to the Nations. The one on LTTN is faster and way better IMO.

[MrPaintballfreak13]

this riff is killer

[MSGDK]

the one who voted negative is ugly and .......

[OvertOps]

Dude has absolutely amazing vocal chords. I agree these guys were the shiznit but badly underrated. Metallica may not be who they were today if not for Diamond Head...they were big fans.

[Brianna2609]

@OvertOps Right? Metallica's Garage Inc. lead me to discover Diamond Head...Like I honestly can't choose which song versions are better...they have two completely different sounds and are (to me) almost completely different songs because of it. My personal opinion, however, is that "Am I Evil" was written for Jame's vocal chords...but I can't say I like it better because, DAMN I love Sean's voice. Love it. But well said.

[tanooj2]

the chorus vocals sound queen-y

[harrycox4]

What the fuck did you do? It sounds slowed down for some reason

[ShaolinDeadlyGamers]

@kjrossblackmore Yanks can't get near you? You ever hear of that little band from LA called Megadeth? How about Slayer and Anthrax... That's 80s though... for 70's America had Blue Oyster Cult, Aerosmith, KISS, and Iron Butterfly. Diamond Head were not rock, they were Heavy Metal. Who gives a shit where it's?

[Rorschachxx1985]

@ShaolinDeadlyGamers black sabbath, judas priest, iron maiden, saxon, diamond head, led zeppelin, queen, the beatles, pink floyd, def leppard, rainbow, deep purple, acdc, vs van halen, kiss, aerosmith, metallica, gnr, megadeth anthrax slayer iron butterfly are pushing it, blue oyster cult i dunno u tell me

[iScreamAimandFire]

@kjrossblackmore hah GnR, Lynnrd Skynyrd, suck. And so does Purple and Rainbow.

[Rorschachxx1985]

@iScreamAimandFire woah woah cant say lynyrd skynyrd suck man or rainbow gnr definitely they sick not massive fan of purple but rainbow are awesome as well as lynyrd skynyrd

[ShinryuTheDestroyer]

Seriously, Diamondhead was the Iron Maiden of their time... oh... wait xD

[jfkdjfd]

They's the Diamond Head of all time dude. They'll never die.

[MetalliMegaTestame]

@ShinryuTheDestroyer Diamond Head kills Iron Maiden. The vocals by Diamond Head are so much better, the guitar playing are so much better the drums are also better, but Steve Harris really is a great bass player. So its

Iron Maiden : 1

Diamond Head : 3

[RockNfuckinRoller97]

@MetalliMegaTestame i agree on everything except vocals. bruce can wail

[MegaTimc1]

@MetalliMegaTestame Are you drinking toilet cleaner dude?!?! 

[6feetlion]

i mixed them live a few weeks ago!!

it was a nice show,they are really underrated...

very good band!

[MrPaintKiller666]

I can't understand why diamond head wasn't a global succesful band!! they are f*cking awesome!!

[977eli]

It's easy to see that the majorly influenced Metallica.

[damagecontrolmusic]

I was studio (stage) manager at south bank studios,where the notorious swalk video was shot,it took( 5 days,set build&shoot).i remember the girls dancing topless(closed set), they had to dance outside the studio being hosed down with cold water(3am in the morning).the drummer is Andrew ridgleys brother ..brings back some great memories,thanks for the posting

[iceonaboy]

I fuckin still love this song to bits. This was played to death in my bedroom when I was 16

[damagecontrolmusic]

Sean Harris and Robin George (who produced this track) made an album back in '85 called Notorious and it's just been released with unheard tracks. Check out the video Notorious Swalk on youtube and for more info damagecontrolmusic website

[BledZeppelin]

Late '80s - this was always on the Friday Rock Show with Tommy Vance. I loved that radio show, a part of my teens. This just made me 20 years younger. Thanks Youtube...

[PaxTemplarium1991]

1st time and i love it!!!

[matefeedkillrepeat92]

Lol I'm listening to Diamond Head for the first time now and it's instantly obvious where Mteallica's Inspiration came from, for a big part!

[Onepieceedc]

where the hell did you find this version? i can't find it anywhere

[TheDarkKnight1124]

@Onepieceedc its off the Album "Behold The Beginning"

[977eli]

anybody notice metallica's symbol was even influenced by diamond head? the first and last letters in both bands stand out big.

[Georgio448]

@977eli A lot of bands do that on their logos for some reason. It could be because that adds a very cool aesthetic to the logo.

[InfernalPossession]

[Constantdoodle]

Wow...... What the hell happened to this awsome band!!!!!!!

[CommanderSpeedMetal]

Since Anvil made a movie. I think diamond head should make one.Then maybe people will relize how great they are.

[Nightica93]

i like diamond head's songs to sing

[TheGarlee]

Seen diamond head at wolves poly in 1980 .Excellent band and brought back great memories of the gig played there .Have got the white album signed by two members of the band .This was one of my favourite tracks!

[SheaBearden]

the version i'm used to has different lyrics.....

"you hit it good girl, babe you hit it high....

you reach it easily, makes me wanna cry

you come on down with a thump to the floor

you can't put on your face anymore....."

....kinda threw my mind for a loop when i heard this one....hehe

[iceonaboy]

My fave DH song, its still good !

[sciencekiller7689]

I think the drums could have sounded better on this album. Other than that, its golden.

[cdhmetal1974]

This is single version.

[dirtyroserocks]

Great song!!

[hologrofting]

great riff! great song ! : )

[Megathrax84]

this just screams the band BAD NEWS!! lol i love it.

[fukinblowme]

No...you are.

[Megathrax84]

What?

[WPH15]

Diamond Head were an awesome and horribly underrated band.

[acdcfan7676]

they had bad luck with their record distribution technique with happy face records lol

[Megathrax84]

bad luck?!! you're asking for it with a record company with a name like that, but jokes aside this band deserves more

[fbnjerez]

@WPH15 yeah, too bad

[cdhmetal1974]

This is another versión, but I like it!

[JohnDoe8842]

It's amazing how much this song sounds like all the pop/hair metal bands that would come along several years after this and be popular throughout the 80s. This has to be where they were getting it from. Like, living through that era and remembering that music, I go back and hear this and it totally fits. "Oh! This is where they got that from. This is why they sounded like that."

Really good stuff. Well, time to listen to it again.

[iceonaboy]

My fave Diamond Head song, fuck, I wanna be 18 again!!!

[malmray]

you wanna be sweet and innocent? XD

[AlexMinney]

thanks for putting this up dude kickass song and kickass band. the singer for this band is just plain awesome!

[yamiimax]

the 80ies mmh^^

[charlycavscout]

this song i think is about how women look so sweet and innocent yet the screw men for everything they got man i try to defend girls before but reality kept slapping me in the face now all i look at women as is fuck toys and someone you dont take home Feel them Fuck them Forget them

[ltmittens]

charly you got it spot on

[utubeThatOneBand]

@charlycavscout so true man

[hitlerlovedjews11]

@charlycavscout quoting the mentors? lol

[MegaTimc1]

@charlycavscout someone has woman issues.................

[bentex89]

[Exeron91]

[LanciaTurbo]
