@@DirtyDoctorDan these lyrics are cheesy ? The lyrics in “Electric Eye” describe how satellites can watch your every move on earth, how we are being monitored….. the lyrics are quite ahead of their time. Even though they had satellites in early 1980, there was not a lot compared to today. Lyrics are inspired by the book “1984” by George Orwell, where “Big Brother” is called Electric Eye and he watches over everybody and knows what they do. This song might be the one with the least cheesy lyrics in Judas Priest entire discography, and it portrays todays reality for a large portion of the world. So, when you claim these lyrics are cheesy, you show that you have absolutely zero clue, about anything or anyone. Have you even READ the lyrics ? Unbelievable….

the only band that, in 2020, can still be heard in gay clubs and biker rallies at the same time. they were/are THAT GOOD and THAT APPEALING>

Half walks onstage like a boss.. "I'm made of metal..."

[@anonchick4789]

The way the crowd reacts is priceless too

[@lukasfontana7589]

His (singing while not being visible) was an incredible coup-de-theatre, to let the anticipation grow even more and then subjugate the crowd.

[@spaztekwarrior]

Still one of my fave Priest songs. Still cranking this in 2021.

[@vladiskaspersky1825]

I've been to their Show at 2005 －Angel Of Retrebution, Live in Moscow. It was jast great! The powerful and so clear and strong voice of Rob - it was something unbelievable...

[@michaelmiley8552]

I just did

[@stephenlong1125]

Cranking in 2022 also!

[@patdisaster8259]

In outer space....interstellar communication.. Electric Eye

[@Barefoot433]

One of the very best. And so prophetic of today- sadly.

[@James-q5b2c]

I've been a snowblind wasp,living in a sleeping village behind the void realizing this track after sabra cadabra is my upmost favorite.

[@jerseyforhawks]

Halford's entrance is hair raising. This IS the best concert opener of all time.

[@lukasfontana7589]

It should be teached at Actor's studio. The ultimate "I am in control". You are more than 300'000 ? Who cares? You could be 1 million and I would master you anyway.

[@rodrocktv167]

La mejor entrada de la historia, aparece justo en el verso "¡Estoy hecho de metal!" caminando como todo un icono como si no tuviera 100 mil personas frente a el. Sin tratar de impresionar o exagerar, simplemente va caminando desde su camerino, sin parar, rompiendo tabúes sobre su sexualidad y enloqueciendo a miles de personas. Sin arreglos vocales y sin escenografías llamativas, metal al 100% cuando alguien te pregunte ¿Qué es el metal? muestrale este video, es simplemente el ejemplo y la esencia de lo que es. Música con clase y estructura, un estilo influyente y letras simples que dicen mucho. Judas Priest, POR SIEMPRE 🔥❤

Rob came OUT like he owns the joint... No doubt people one of the best entrances in the history of metal music.. 600,000..

[@danielcordovado8230]

The huge smile and recognition Glenn has when he walks out on stage And looks up at the audience Almost as if he is so proud he knows he is the man And has achieved Metal God

[@ricenglish4556]

As always, Glenn in his trademark Red and Black comes on stage, smiles, and tears it up on guitar.

It takes dedication. Great live sound does not happen by accident.

[@danahegel4]

definitely one of the greatest vocalists in metal music this band has been on my playlist for 45 years.

[@Iamverybald]

Ian Hill's bass is rock solid, and his tone is delicious

[@jamesrobertson9597]

People can't imagine how this sounded live. You could feel every note. It rattled your ribcage, and your ears rang for three days after one of these shows. Sometimes the ringing never stopped, for the rest of your fucking life. That was just a chance you took. Everybody did their job in this band, and the experience was like Mozart conducting Krakatoa.

[@NicanTlacaWarrior1]

I truly appreciate how Rob just steals the show by simply walking in. That's legitimate stage presence if I ever saw it.

[@ibuprofenPill]

Rob walked onto the stage like a total boss.

[@mrreemann3739]

50 years of service and still going strong! Judas Priest!

[@franciscomontero9728]

I’m so lucky I’m 46 years old. and still alive. I didn’t had the honor to see Judas Priest live. But. I. Am a fan and I have all their albums. I listen with a Bose computerized system. My neighbors like them so much that they throw rocks from the upper levels,m. Greetings from Mexico 🇲🇽

[@drill2.087]

How underrated is Ian hills bass, guy never gets enough credit.

[@ScottJohnson80]

So bad ass how Halford slowly strolls out singing the opening lines of the song. 🤘🏼

[@DaveMuday]

Seen this tour twice. Back to back nights. My ears are still ringing. Prim Priest at the time there was no one better

How nonchalant was that? "I'm Rob Halford, I'll do as I damn well please and make it look good".

[@chrisplunkett159]

I had this on 8-track when I was fourteen. Screaming for vengeance opens with The Hellion/Electric Eye and the first time I heard it, it blew me away. I've been a fan ever since. The lyrics to Electric Eye were foreshadowing what we are experiencing today, very prescient.

[@silverback888]

Who keeps coming here just to see the part where Rob casually walks on stage with the lyrics "I'm made of Metal" 😂😂💕

[@stevie65able]

Watch this video every few weeks. It's just that good.

[@EmrahUncu]

The band: We are metal-heads we must find the most macho outfits. Rob, it's your duty my man. Rob: Trust me . I've got it.

[@jeffumbach]

Yes, you can thank Rob for many of the stereotypical metal outfits of the 80's.

[@producermichael5108]

This is the real deal. This is METAL. Once you have seen this nothing else comes close. Thanks Judas Priest 🔥🎸🔥

[@VioletDeliriums]

I still think that this is the best song that Judas Priest ever made... I like the anti-surveillance-society message in it... It picks up where the toxic technology of Black Sabbath's "Iron Man" left off... These songs don't merely have "kick ass sounds" in them on the surface, they speak truth about the fucked up world we live in.

[@kurzackd]

+Violet Deliriums I'd pick Beyond the Realms of Death as their best, but Electric Eye kicks ass too!

[@pjholly123]

+gayson jaddie I agree on Realms but i like the even earlier stuff better. I always thought Blood Red Skies was a good follow up to Electric Eye, and perhaps a candidate for Terminator 2 soundtrack.

[@zigzagbigbag]

Great song but I think Fever is their best. Certainly on this album.

[@Walamonga1313]

+Violet Deliriums Beyond the Realms of Death and Dreamer Deceiver are a tad bit better.

[@masonsykes2240]

+Bobby Fletcher That's exactly what I was thinking!

[@travkatz]

I get the chills every time I see him walk out on stage in this performance. STAGE PRESENCE.

[@lukasfontana7589]

Personality and charisma, too. And his timing...

[@wad316]

I remember seeing an interview clip of Lemmy being asked if he knew Rob was gay and he was like "Everyone in England already knew he was gay" lmao

[@tompugh5566]

Subtly was never his strong suit, I'm surprised it wasn't talked about more. He didn't exactly hide it 😂. He's so talented that even the homophobic loved his music, when your that good that you can turn back hate you know your doing something right
