Heathen - Set Me Free - Official Music Video

[@lisavandeursen8745]

Had the guys stay at my mums house in 89ish. Met singer, David, again in Houston tonight. He remembered my. “Kindness” and even then i knew he had a great soul!! Thanks for all the cane to scout bar, and thank you David for the chats and memories when we were not a few year older than now!!!

[@beatleguise130]

This song always takes me back to when they used to play it on KNAC back in the day! 🤘🏼💀🤘🏼

[@showstopperrob1097]

This proves that, Sweet was their time way ahead in 1973 when they recorded it and released in 1974

[@tepoztlitlacatl634]

Yeah

[@marlahart2060]

🎸🙋‍♀️Absolutely!

[@ovd806]

Still remember that I saw this @ my grandmothers house. They had cable TV, which we didn't have where we lived, and therefore MTV Headbangers Ball. This clip made my day!

[@HeathenMetal]

Awesome!

[@vicrecords]

same here!

[@whichdoctor4858]

Me too lol and I’ve been searching decades later for it again! Headbangers ball was awesome.

[@klee3797]

Did us Sweet fans (and Tucker fans) justice. 🤘🔥

[@martinpringle4650]

Well said. Recognition nowadays for Sweet. There will never be a band like them again 😢

[@morbidmike3456]

My Very First Heathen Cassette Tape was Red. It was a Cassette Single of "Set Me Free" & "Goblins Blade". To This Very Day That Tape is One of My Favorites of All Time. Still Listen to It. 🤘

[@maleitch]

Sitting out on my workbench right now after cleaning out my first truck from the 80's. Can't bear to throw it out.

[@robhilliard2969]

I was a Marine Stationed in Yuma Arizona. We took off on a four day weekend to LA. Heard this on KNAC....loved it.

[@AsphyxGr]

The original was way ahead of it's time, for me it maybe is the first speed metal song. Heathen's cover is kickass, love the double leads !

[@philtrevis]

First time I saw this was on Noisy Mothers in the early 90's. I just remember the dude taking some kind of grinder to his trem. That is what stood out to me.

[@erichand7548]

Thrash is amazing and Heathen play perfect thrash..... period

[@tiffaroni1966]

My brother has always wow'd us with his talent.. keep on rockin Dave! Love your little sis

[@johnmcaulay5938]

Classic Heathen. Totally amazing.

[@JoeBowler-r9n]

Great Band 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻

[@The_Guy1337]

now THIS is how you do tech thrash! I love heathen way more than any other tech thrash band other than Megadeth because of Dave Mustaine and Marty Friedman

[@rick9977015]

Totally underrated band! That Goblin's Blade song is a total story ready to be written!

[@robertatwell694]

Great memories with this song..I always loved when Headbangers Ball would play this video!

[@biggunsnu]

I will NEVER not love the shit out of hearing this blast from my past. Loved it in the 80's at 16, still blasting it at 50.

[@nicolabryan6102]

Shit yes. Me too.

[@whichdoctor4858]

I saw this as a kid on Headbangers Ball as my older sister was a heavy rocker. That solo was amazing and I bought a guitar that weekend.

[@visionx4029]

Music at its best

[@sphynxkittens5894]

I recorded HBB and this was the last song and loved it

[@paulleger6566]

Did you know the original was done by Saxon?

[@efilrekib4446]

@@paulleger6566 It was a Sweet song from the 'Sweet Fanny Adams' album. Saxon did it as a cover.

I love all metal but groups like this are still among my favorites of all time. And these guys are still going strong. Great to see old school thrashers making a comeback in the modern world. Long live true metal:)

[@tepoztlitlacatl634]

Saw them 3 days ago in albuquerque

[@PhronexisThrash]

Gagged, ball and chained Feel just the same Heads on the wall Maybe you're just playing games Set me free Mauled by her hound Hangin' around Is this for real I don't know when I'll be found Set me free Ahh set me free Ahh set me free, from you Taken by force By you of course Far from my bed I know I'd rather be dead Set me free Ahh set me free Ahh set me free, from you Fire in my brain Burn me insane Making your mark Don't leave me here in the dark Set me free Call me a saint That's what I ain't Inside my head Maybe I'd feel better dead Set me free Ahh set me free Ahh set me free, from you

[@SynopsisGrim]

I remember my dad had a VHS tape of Headbangers Ball episodes and the part I would watch most were 3 back to back to back videos that included this, Dio - I Could Have Been A Dreamer and Twisted Sister - Hot Love. Damn, hearing this makes me feel like I'm 13 again! Thanks for the upload!

[@ELPCOTILLION-SD1970]

CLASSIC HEATHEN...

Going to se them next week in Barcelona with Exodus and Testament. CANT WAIT!!

Christ is the ONLY WAY TO HEAVEN

[@camerondodge2070]

Look at that, musicians who seem to actually like the Sweet. Now that's a rare sight indeed. I wish more people would look at them as more than a joke band.

[@vanessa-rv4dj]

They had a good few notable credits. Motley Crue, Axl Rose, Gene Simmons, Ritchie Blackmore... Just to name a few :)

[@magorzataworoch1002]

swietny videoclip oraz super piosenka oraz wspanialy zespol heathen

[@claybmt]

Love this version of the song! The town I lived in growing up in the 80's was one of I think two places in the U.S. that had banned MTV from being carried by local cable companies so I had to rely on a friend recording Headbanger's Ball when he went to visit his grandparents so we could watch music videos like this.

When metal was fun

[@paulwohlstetter4965]

I edited this video at the Abraham & Strauss Dept Stores - video studio in Brooklyn in the late 1980s. I just thought about it and found it on youtube! You guys should credit me. It was directed by a female director, Cindy Keefer. I believe she was a friend of my buddy Dave L, who worked in Advertising for A&S - Paul Wohlstetter.

[@christineblack4654]

******OMFG it's a longggggg time since I heard this. wow soooo good, what an amazing guitarist!!! perfect solo and sound. came here after watching the documentary called Bay area Godfathers on TUBI it's about all the best metal bands from there and Heathen was mentioned and being the smart headbagger that I am, I took notes! haha \m/\m/ peace from Québec, Canada. and big love!

[@mohsoo6858]

I've always wondered the plot behind the video, first we're in the streets of San Francisco, then there's Heathen playing and then Doug doing lute work on his guitar and then he falls on the amps at the end, it's like it's all inspired by Heathen's day to day back then

this video was during when the headbangers ball was really cool.....if i remember the hosts (adam curry?) were not that good then, but the videos were alot cooler.

I remember when Curry or Ricky Rattman became cooler than the songs they played... and I stopped watching. No hate to the band, but much hate to Blind Melon - No Rain being #1 on Headbangers Ball...
