The first concert I ever went to was Judas Priest, the Defenders of the Faith tour. I was in junior high and my parents had a lot of reservations letting me go, but my friends talked them into it.

Rob Halford, Dio, Freddie Mercury, and Robert Plant are my all time favorite vocalists.
Left out Bruce Dickinson. |

That gay guy got a lot of other bands wanting to be like him. He has great vocal ability, even to this day. Priest made metal what it is today.
I can't make it live, but this performance is awesome. Metal Gods |

British Steel is truly a timeless masterpiece - one of my favorites.

So what. He sings the macho songs. Hell Bent for Leather is not a homo anthem. Listen to the words and look at the etymology of the song title. Of course, if you read innuendo into everything, you'll have a field day with My Little Pony.

Who cares about his sexual orientation?
Judas Priest is legendary. I just saw them perform, and can count on one hand the number of retirement-age metal icons that can still bring a show. Halford's 63, Hill's 63, Tipton's 67, and I salute them for their perseverance. Halford's voice was getting a little ragged, but the man can still scream. |

Painkiller. What a fantastic album. Anyone who really cares about Rob's orientation is most likely a closet gay too.

one of a kind vocals. one of the great singers in the past 30 years. I've heard him sing Opera as well. In the same class as Freddie Mercury.
vocal cords greased on jizz can really wail. |

View Quote That is pretty metal, too. That guy had a very distinct voice. Halford has always had a set of pipes on him. Dio is probably the most versatile vocalists of all the metal vocalists - he had range and nuance. When I think of classic metal vocalists with character, I have to also include Bruce Dickinson, Dee Snider, and Ozzy. Honorable mentions go to Don Dokken, Michael Sweet, David Coverdale, and Joe Elliot. Posted Via AR15.Com Mobile |

Halford rocks
I could give a fuck about his choices...his life...his choice Speaking of JP lyrics...Electric Eye from back in the early 80's - very prophetic Electric Eye Up here in space I'm looking down on you My laser's trace Everything you do You think you've private lives Think nothing of the kind There is no true escape I'm watching all the time I'm made of metal My circuits gleam I am perpetual I keep the country clean I'm electric, electric spy I'm protective electric eye Always in focus You can't feel my stare I zoom into you You don't know I'm there I take a pride in probing All your secret moves My tearless retina Takes pictures that can prove I'm made of metal My circuits gleam I am perpetual I keep the country clean I'm electric, electric spy I'm protective electric eye Electric eye In the sky They feel the stare So always there There's nothing you can do about it Develop and expose I feed upon your every thought And so my power grows I'm made of metal My circuits gleam I am perpetual I keep the country clean I'm electric, electric spy I'm protecting electric eye I'm electric, electric spy I'm protecting Protective, detective Electric eye Songwriters TIPTON, GLENN RAYMOND/HALFORD, ROB/DOWNING, KENNETH |
