  • sick, sick, sick voice!!! :)

  • best version of this song....

  • I'd like to know what joan Baez thinks of that : Rob owns so much that song!

  • that one girl was crying!!!! behold the power of metal even when stripped down to nothing

  • What must Joan have thought of this the first time she heard it? Pretty amazing what different artists can find in a song.

  • @2:10 that tells you all about this song, this performance !!!

  • 3:03 .... still the most amazing singer =)

  • the one and only HALFORD

  • There seems to be far too few lighters in that crowd.

  • IS SOOOOOOO BEAUTIFUL I´M CRIYN

    

  • This is a classic!

  • 3:22 *_*

  • Yeah i saw them at wacken 2011 :)

  • i am searching for this DVD! can someone tell me the exactly title?? cause i am searching for Reunited Tour DVD at google and i don't find it!

  • @xero399 Hi there. This is from a special edition of the "Angel of Retribution" CD. One side is the normal CD, the other side has interview stuff and a couple of songs: this one, Electric Eye, Touch of Evil and Breaking the law, if I remember it correctly. Greetz from Germany, Priest forever!

  • hermosa

  • fucking beautiful. more like the original from joan baez.

  • what a voice! HALFORD!! HALFORD!! HALFORD!!

  • I saw them on the 1st of july in Belgrade Arena, along with Whitesnake. It was awesome. This song also. Metal God Halford is still a major ass kicker, when it comes to singing. They gave their best. One of the best bands ever.

  • sta minchia!!!!!!!!ho le budella aggrovigliate....immensi

  • God this is fucking EPIC!

  • I cant believe I'm seeing the mighty Priest next month!!!! I couldnt eat the day I saw Saxon live I was so excited so Christ knows what I'll be like a few days before Priest. Its going to be a loooooooong month indeed and hope they do this track, accoustic or otherwise.

  • I don't know what is a better version, this one, or the Unleashed In The East version...that is tough, both kick ass, and sound so damn good.

  • Forgive my french, but fucking beautiful... I do actually prefer this slower ballady version.

  • I have a golden ticket... : )

  • This must have been a magical evening

  • 3:22 ¡Se me erizan los jodidos pelos!

  • Que alguin me de un link porfavor para descargarmela, gracias

    Rob Haldford, this is a MetalGod

  • How come no one posted the Hannover 2004 version?

    I believe that's the best live performance of Diamonds and Rust (acoustic) by the Priest.

  • @videotitan1 You do realize it's you who's going to burn?

  • @videotitan1 In the words of Bill hicks "Return to the mall that spawned you."

  • @Tyrfingr

    Don't waste your breath mate, just another hater who can't accept quality from behind the iron wall of religious dogma

  • Hmmm, Judas Priest singing Joan Baez. Intersting, good performance though. This song is about Bob Dylan.

  • This is is music at it's best

    .

  • So Beatiful !! :)

  • 2 dislikes sucks dick and wears pink... rob can stick a middle finger on their faces!

  • Fucking awesome.... Cheers!

  • Worth the price of admission right there folks.

    This is why they're the best.

    Awesome.

  • So beautiful song

  • Comment removed

  • 3:02 hell the hell.... guess best voice colour ever heared!!!!

  • I have listened to well over 10000 of hours of music of all kind.

    This is one of the most majestic singing performance I have ever heard. Hardly believable.

    I bow to the Metal God.

  • I was destroyed when I knew that 2011 was gonna be the last tour, can't wait to see them one last time.

    THE PRIEST WILL NEVER DIE

  • @TheExpendable316 That's right my friend! My favourite band forever, lots of great and unforgetable moments and memories in my life thanks to the Priest. You will be missed guys! Legendary

  • 1:30 - 1:40 LMAO !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • @AaViRoYes, this is Valencia, Spain. They play in the Bullring in the Metalmania Festival with other bands like Helloween. UDO...

  • can anyone give me tabs please? great song

  • que lo repario carajo!!! cante Rob por siempre!!!

  • The crowd, the wind, Halford... everything was perfect here.

  • Amazing version, never heard this one before! Sounds great with the acoustic guitars.

  • Wait!! is that God singing??

  • 2:02 EPIC, me emociona

  • what i can say... this song gave me another meaning of love and life... i've heard it thanks to my boyfriend, and now we cannot imagine our life without this song! it is beautiful!!! especially when the crowd sings last chorus) Priest made this song one of my favorite! and by the way, the ballad version is much better)

  • @nastUnkArock This is simply Priest going full circle back towards Joan Baez's original Diamonds and Rust. It was a good return to the heartache that the original implied. Have you heard the Unleashed In The East version? If you haven't then you should probably hold your opinion until you check that out. I think that the Unleashed version of this song is absolutely definitive. No contest.

  • @NightmareSkates thank you for information and I do appreciate your opinion but you know, now I'm sitting in my room, and there's big full moon out of the window and I don't want anything else listening to THIS song, anything but only him to be with me. And sorry, but I don't want to hold my opinion because tastes differs and no one can say am I right or wrong. This is the best song ever and everyone have to decide what version he\she likes more. thanx to Joan) respect to Judas Priest! \m/

  • @NightmareSkates besides I was listening to Unleashed In The East version for hundred times but when i heard this version, I recognized that it is better because here are all that great feelings and emotions i was looking for) look at his gestures! this version is perfect! i wish i was there in Valencia, but unfortunately...

  • @nastUnkArock Well, it's obvious that you at least thought the Unleashed version was good. I think that what happened here was Rob was feeling extremely comfortable and actually expressing HIMSELF rather than putting on the whole Metal God persona. Rob is at his best when he's like this. It's only fitting that Rob puts a bit of drama into the song. He has always loved theater and opera, so that sets him apart in many ways. Do realize that this is a CLOSE second to the Unleashed version for me.

  • @NightmareSkates yes, I think that Unleashed version is really good, but with greatest Diamonds&rust's lyrics an acoustic version leaves some place for emotions, comprehensions and in my case for tears) and this version Diamonds&rust shows us Judas Priest from another perfect side of their creativity even when we speak about cover)

  • @nastUnkArock I think this is the better version. I could listen to this over and over.

  • @llangol that's what I said)) immortal diamonds&rust and favorite version live in valencia!) the best song and the best performance ever!!)

  • MAGIC.

  • only him can sing this song with those amazing feelings... Without screams and hyperboles (Tim Owens). He is just amazing!! Nostalgic...

  • @Likofron But again it's not original. It is a version that is better than most others, almost made thier own.

  • @Likofron love this

  • @llangol m2!! priest knew how to do even a cover seems original ;-)

  • Comment removed

  • When the crowd comes in at the end just sends shivers down my spine. It doesn't get any better!

  • @MrShadowGremlin this is great

  • the drummer is a bit bored on this one :P

  • FUCK, this is INSANE! I clicked on this and was initially dissapointed because it was acoustic...then Rob started singing.

    I wish he would sing in this style, without the "gruffness" of his metal singing, more often! SHIVERS! I get to go see him with halford in July...it's costing me $1200, but I know it'll be worth it!!

  • @Anjohl Where is that?

  • stupid crowd. the guy with no shirt doesn`t even know the lyrics. he`s just posing to the camera, trying to look focused and feeling the music.he was not doing nothing, but when he knows he`s being filmed he changes the attitude ehehe the stupid gothic girl in one minute is making horns and showing her tongue and the next minute she`s crying ahahahah

  • Thank you for existing Rob Halford. Long life to Rob Halford

  • great

  • great

  • the best of the best!!!!!!!

  • 2:19 ''Guapo!!!'' jajaja que dioses..

  • 1:34 - 1:43 .The dude without the shirt doesn't even know the name of the band he is watching :)) .Just kiddin.But he is tryin to sing along

  • Halford is God!

  • Look,at 1:36 ,the girl show her tongue and a coupple of seconde after,she cry at 2:12...maybe she is doing too much drug xD

  • GRANDII!!!

  • halford can be man of 1000 voices. :)

  • una banda excelente!

  • This tune's got magic. That's for sure. I mean Baez original, and some other covers were good, but only priest gave it this magic atmosphere, this thing don't know how to name it, but Halford is just so convincing singing it, more convincing than Baez, like Jimie Hendrix was more convincing performing "Along the watchtower" than Dylan itself, both Diamonds and Rust and All along the watchtower gain new value, with these covers

  • @leunamme888 true

  • @leunamme888 God, you are right, it's not the words, it's what you do with them.

  • This performance seriously sends shivers down my spine and brings tears to my eyes. Magnificent.

  • simplemente una banda de las mejores \m/

  • lol 2:12 she's got a good reason

  • @amarparis17 2:12 Yeah she's kinda cute, always liked chicks with short hair. But what's the reason she's crying, maybe her boyfriend is an asshole, or maybe her mother is sick, maybe it's the music which is "nostalgic" indeed or maybe the music only made her her to do some kind of plus and minuses of her life, and she isn't happy... or maybe she's crying because she felt in that very moment listening to this very "nostalgic" song that live is beautiful. Well I think we'll never know.

  • @leunamme888 moments before you see her crying, she making horns, showing her tongue...she`s "crying" to the camera, simple as that...poser

  • @amarparis17 hehehe I think she will even qry when you say hello to her xD

  • That is actually one of the best performances Ive ever seen! Ive seen em live and they were equally as amazing!

  • For the love of God these guys know how its done.

  • So does Joan Baez.

  • of course she does.

  • Superb!

    I wish Joan Baez would return the compliment and cover a Priest song. Cool covers always come from an unlikely angle, like when Hendrix covered Dylan.

    I've heard some hippy girls are hell bent for leather....

  • @Leberteich

    That just gives me the giggles thinking of her doing Hard as Iron or Painkiller...

  • does anyone know when they will be touring again

  • i saw them last year and cant wait till the next time they are great

  • la kago como canta el puyblico... me da escalofrios

  • Judas rules.....

  • never got such goosebumps before

    Rob has the greatest voice a human being can have

  • best performance of diamonds and rust ever!!!!!!

  • One of the best bands ever !!

    Their earlier stuff was so fundamental for later on bands... just like Mororhead...

  • this video changed my life.

    so amazing

  • i love the girl at 3:39!

  • always wondering if Rob doesn't feel overheated in that leather coat, when he was younger on the stage he wore lighter clothes

  • Thats because he is so cool! :P

  • 3.25 inenarrable

  • Rob Halford is a god...and Priest will forever rock! I agree with R0b0Trav0lta in that it is much better as a ballad and was made to be played live!

  • so much better as a ballad

  • awesome song and atmosfair

    epic

  • goosebumps everytime at 3:17, remarkable.

  • They actually sang this at the CT show and it was great. I really had a fabulous time at their show and will definitely see Priest again when they come back to the tri-state area.

    -H-

  • Beautiful. 2 more weeks til I see Priest. Dos semanas mas!!!

  • Holy Fuck!

    It's Amazing

    Hello from Russia

  • holy FUCK my jaws just dropped

  • Judas Priest, enough said

  • Judas Priest sort of completed the song with a refrain cause there is none in the original version. The original is great thou, however I think this is better.

  • 2008 greece rockwave festival i waited for them to end with diomonds and rust but ... i dint have the honor to enjoy this one , next time i hope to hear it

  • I gave you a thumbs down because I'd rather get a punch in the mouth then listen to a gnr album.

  • I love this song!!!Piotrek from Poland

  • best version ever

  • I like it how he does it here, more with his natural chest voice, in a lower octave.

    It's very emotional!

  • Very nice 5 stars ♫♫♫♫♫

  • halford sounds strange on this one

  • His voice sounds thicker and fuller than usual. Probably singing from his chest more, something he usually doesn't do much cause, with the high notes he has to hit, head voice is the best option and the transition from chest to head can be choppy or just weird. Notice also his vibrato is strong as hell.

  • I love this new version of the song, but for me, the best version was on Unleashed in the East!!!

  • best version is Rising in The East DVD for me. By the way where was this filmed??

  • It was filmed at the Nipan Budokan, Tokyo.

  • I'm talking this video not the DVD. ;)

  • This IS the one from the DVD

  • No man you are wrong, this is from the DVD from the digipack of Angel of Retribution. The DVD Rising in The East was filmed in 2005 in Japan and sold alone.

  • lol all this time I've been thinking it was the Risint in the East version...now i feel like an ass :P

  • no you don't. Everyone makes mistakes. now you know :P

  • lol thing was, I was replying on this, but watching the Rising in the East version XD

  • Valencia in Spanish :-))))

  • I'll be damned, here comes your ghost again...But that's not unusual, it's just that the moon is fool and you decided to call...

  • ein tolles lied

    schatzi ich liebe dich will dich nie verlieren

  • this song rocks!!!

  • Wow!

  • The Best version of this song ever made..

  • Damn,

    that was epic.

    it must ahve been an honor to sing che chorus in that concert

    cheers.

  • Since 1977 when they released a cover of this song on "Sin after sin".

  • Taci in cristosu ma-tii astazi si maine

  • so baroquesque...

  • Holy fuck Halford sounds amazing in this recording. Definitely in tip-top shape for this vid. METAL GODS!
