I LISTENED TO TYRANT, JAWBREAKER AND EAT ME ALIVE THE OTHER NIGHT. THEY SOUND GREAT.

TOTALLY AGREE ABOUT THE EARLY PRIEST SONGS:
RIN OF THE MILL 
DYING TO MEET YOU 
VICTIM OF CHANGES
GENOCIDE
BEYOND THE REALMS OF DEATH
SAVAGE
HEROS END

I WISH THEY WOULD DO MORE OF THESE SONGS LIVE.  THIS IS WHEN I FIRST GOT INTO PRIEST IN 1977. I WAS BLOWN AWAY.

Turbo and RID did not do Halford, nor the band any justice..  I have realised through Halford's solo stuff he has got alot of talent. I love the opening lines to Betrayal.... That whole album is smokin'!! I really feel that he should do more stuff with the Halford band.  "Will you go to heaven, Will you land in hell Are the things you're praying for - the things that serve you well?"    (Quoting Message by scorpion01 from Friday, December 12, 2008 10:58:55 AM)   scorpion01 wrote:   I STILL GET CHILLS WHEN I LISTEN TO THE SONG WRATH OF GOD.

Death - The one and only Priest  - I'm in the mood for some Nostradamus.. 

I will take your final breath
And I will be your last regret
Cold blood - runs in my blackened heart
Tearing - every soul apart

Messenger of death - wields the scythe of man's damnation
Messenger of death - hold his blade for termination

Sin - is what I feast upon
I'm forging my crematorium
Your tomb - is waiting here for you
Welcome to my ritual

Messenger of death - wirlds the scythe of man's damnation
Messenger of death - holds his blade for termination

Death rides out from the storm
We turn to God and cry
Ignored we turn to face
This vengeance from the sky

Death rides out from the storm
No time left to repent
No quarter - no escape
No line of self defence

Death rides out from the storm
In terror we confess
Our voice is heard no more
His deed is merciless

Death rides out from the storm
Deface humanity
There's no escape from this
Human calamity

Death rides out from the storm
We turn to God and cry
Ignored we turn to face
This vengeance from the sky
Messenger of death - wields the scythe
Of man's damnation
Messenger of death - holds his blade
For termination

I'm Seeing Nothing - 
                                 
  What's All This Noise - 
                                                               
Could Someone Give Me Something - 

Just To Get Me Through This Boy..

 It's Allright...... It's Allright I'm Just A Little Crazy

Holiday Love
(sung briefly to the tune of Air Supply's All Out Of Love)

Well it's Thanksgiving time, It's such a great day now!
Turkey and bread and pleanty of stuffing!
It's Thanksgiving time, It's time for some jell-o, 
Watch some TV, maybe have some grape Kool-Aid,

OooooH, I think I dig your stuff,
I think I dig your stuff!!

Well it's Thanksgiving time, I love your new blazer!
Your sleeves are pushed up, it looks pretty awesome!

Well thank you my friend, you're so kind to say so,
Your eyes are so blue, I think that I like them

Well it's Thanksgiving time, let's go get a burger,
Maybe some fries, let's go take a car ride,

Go to a motel, drink a gallon of brandy,
Hang out n robes and see what develops

Ooooh! I think I dig your stuff,
I think I dig your ........


note to self : must join SNL addicts anon.

With raised fists of fire,

as they conspire,

I'll be defiant

against the alliance!!

Grand canyons of space and time universal
My mind is subjected, subjected to all

Stab, brawl, punch, crawl
The hooks to my brain are well in
Stab, brawl, punch, crawl
I know what I am, I'm Berlin

Through cracked, blackened memories of unit dispersal
I face the impregnable wall

Stab, brawl, punch, crawl
The hooks to my brain are well in
Stab, brawl, punch, crawl
I know what I am, I'm Berlin

Exploding, reloading, this quest never ending
Until I give out my last breath

I'm stabbing and brawling, I'm punching and crawling
Hooks to my brain are well in
I'm stabbing and brawling, I'm punching and crawling
I know what I am, I'm Berlin

Can you remember... remember my name?
As I flow through your life
A thousand oceans I have flown ooh
And cold... cold spirits of ice ah ah
All my life
I am the echo of your past

I am returning the echo of a point in time
And distant faces shine
A thousand warriors I have known ooh
And laughing as the spirits appear
All your life
Shadows of another day

If you hear me talking on the wind
You've got to understand
We must remain perfect strangers

Auh I know I must remain
Inside this silent well of sorrow
A strand of silver hanging through the sky
Touching more than you see
The voice of ages in your mind ooh
Is aching with the dead of the night
Oouh precious life
Your tears are lost in falling rain

And if you hear me talking on the wind
You've got to understand
We must remain perfect strangers...

for Ron

Hope in my heart
As a new day has dawned
I see your light on the wings of a dove
Lifting me up as the dark clouds retreat
Courage transcends & you make me complete
Hope in my heart with the advent of spring
I am reborn with the love that you bring

so sorry Ron--I just couldn't resist --just be glad I didn't sing the whole song to you !!

thank you --thank you--thank you--Guido--I keep hearing that song but the radio station never tells me who does it

another cd I must buy
