What Are Your Favourite 10 Original Lineup Sabbath Tracks?
OK, Paranoid is almost fifty, so I want to know what other Acadamy members' favourite ten tracks of the original Sabbath lineup are. I've limited it to ten because I want it to be a challenge to narrow the list down (I know I struggled). All the albums from Black Sabbath to Never Say Die are eligible.
I'll kick off:
1. Into the Void
2. Symptom of the Universe
3. Children of the Grave
4. Electric Funeral
5. Supernaut
6. Dirty Women
7. Black Sabbath
8. Hand of Doom
9. A National Acrobat
10. Megalomania
01. War Pigs
02. Black Sabbath
03. Sabbath Bloody Sabbath
04. Snowblind
05. Symptom Of The Universe
06. Sweet Leaf
07. Iron Man
08. Hole In The Sky
09. Planet Caravan
10. N.I.B.
1. The Writ
2. Hand of Doom
3. Children of the Grave
4. Under the Sun
5. Iron Man
6. N.I.B.
7. Sabbra Cadabra
8. Wheels of Confusion
9. You Won't Change Me
10. Fairies Wear Boots
Already out of 30 possible choices we have 24 different tracks.
As I suspected, Sabbath wrote so many classic songs there is a huge number of contenders and everyone's list will almost certainly be different.
In no order, mine would be:
- Black Sabbath
- War Pigs
- Paranoid
- Iron Man
- Hand of Doom
- Children of the Grave
- Solitude
- Hole in the Sky
- Megalomania
- Symptom of the Universe
While I'm no Sabbath expert... Tymell, based on the other lists in this thread, yours actually makes sense in the "top 10" order starting with the #1 song. Even an unordered list can come out as ordered!
Ha, you're right. I may have gone through the albums picking the 10 :p You can also see my album prefs pretty clearly there: I never really cared so much for Vol. 4 or Sabbath Bloody Sabbath (and I've never bothered listening to Never Say Die or Technical Ecstasy).
