house mate alerted me to this sacrilege, Black Sabbath started a HUGE genre of music. Timeless band absolute magic. All a game of opinions though so going to go for most overrated rock song as Don’t Stop Me Now, drives me crackers that song always came on as the clubs were letting out.
Reading most of the comments, which IMO are wrong, they read like trying to be cool old man words. As always though, each to their own, the fact that no one’s opinion will change mine or the fact that most of these songs have earned the band’s millions, so they don’t care either. I wouldn’t class Arctic Monkeys as rock either, but, whilst having a catchy tune, I can’t stand the vocals, so therefore, everything they’ve done is garbage. Led Zep, I have Stairway on my iTunes, but only because once in a blue moon, I might want to hear it. Definitely overrated. Most of the Beatles stuff is crap, Sgt Pepper, walrus. Not saying everything, but probably the majority. Hey ho, it’s all opinions!
And that's why I post it and any version of it... For the ' record' your ex wife has not paid me any monies (that can be traced) to wind you up...
Muse the band should be the reason muse the word has no meaning i feel like it should be a word for absolutely plain bang average
I saw them at City Hall, 1970 or '71 - they were brilliant, came back for so many encores City Hall management turned the power off to get them off the stage, we all trooped out in the pitch dark!
Saw them at the Apollo in Manchester about 82 or 3 or 4. Can't recall for sure....End of a long tour gig...Lackluster and they looked fed up with it.....Disappointing, plus not my kind of rock, but I'd got a ticket and went with some workmates.......Not as good as Judas Priest who were the bees knees. But eh perhaps on another night I'd have enjoyed and appreciated BS more.
Around that time they were without ozzy, Ronnie James dio (?) was fronting them. Nowhere near as good as the real thing.
70/71 when I saw them was early in their career - they were well up for it those days, hence the numerous encores and blackout to finish!
Plus the fact that the bloke driving got lost and we got there about 30 mins late...TBH I can't recall if OO was with them at the time..Seemed to recall they were off stage fairly sharpish...Maybe the last night of a full UK and Europe tour, or one of the last.
Just about certain it won't have been ozzy, he got the sack in 79 not sure if and when he rejoined. I saw them with ozzy in 1978 the support on the tour was a virtually unheard of van Halen. Unfortunately they couldn't make the night I was there, their replacement was tans de hoof, unknown before, and after the tour.
