Been a Queens fan forever and this is the first I'm seeing this. Amazing

[@ols-c6410]

Me too!!! Like wtf!!!

[@CRN8091]

Me 3!

[@thales_6123]

Mike Shinoda?

[@lukegilmore8220]

Me 4

[@alexsetterington3142]

They've not been around forever?

[@pedrozanon7245]

This is so random, i never knew there was such a cover.

[@Koszutos]

QOTSA playing a cover, Joey with a shirt on.. so many unexpected things here

[@saintjabroni]

😂😂😂

[@StraightJacketFitting]

They cover so much whatchu mean

[@patricktaylor4997]

Paranoid is one of those deceptively simple tunes that you can measure a band's ability to cover it well. Awesome to see QOTSA doing it. They are such a great live act!

[@XMirrorJoe]

I was not aware of this cover lol I was 12 yo on 2007. Thanks for sharing.

[@goobergoon6177]

i wasn't even born dude

[@charbelmoussawer2107]

​@@goobergoon6177hahahah same i feel so late to the party

[@satevo462]

Oh you about be 30... Welcome. 40 is just around the corner. Muhahaha, youth is fleeting and old age is inevitable! Jesus. I think I might have issues with getting old ya think?

[@ws6texp2]

Me too 😂

[@svtman93]

Holy shit I literally saw this when it aired on TV in 2007.... I knew nothing about QOTSA at the time, and now they are one of my all time favorite bands! So cool to see again after all these years.

[@Rbastid]

This is a good example of why a great sound mixer is so important. Odds are VH1 cheaper out on getting someone who knew how to mix for TV, and because of that we're robbed of Troy's solo, as it's buried under basically everything else.

[@Kintayisme]

Glad to see this here getting the views it deserves

[@Toornst]

He can sing anything

[@mymasteriwanttoserveyouand9903]

But not this

[@11acjr]

Josh's voice was an Ace of Spades directly from his sleeves on that... full of tricks...

[@joaquinandrade7406]

Love the dude at 1:38

[@TabethaAurochs]

That's my spirit dude! 🔥🖤

[@alecmacknight]

always best with Joey on Drums

[@StacyArangael-cz1jr]

It's ironic that Joey Castillo the drummer here was fired from QOTSA and now plays in Zakk Sabbath a tribute band to Black Sabbath with Zakk Wylde!

[@theroguerider]

Current roster other than Mr. Theodore. I didn't realize how long this collection of Queens had been playing together.

[@plazamiserere]

when the Lullabies to Paralyze tour finalized, with Alain Johannes and Natasha Schneider, they went to studio to record Era Vulgaris, in July 2006. From there, Dean Fertita and Michael Shuman were part of the Queens. Finally, Jon Theodore joined the band in 2013, for Like Clockwork participating in the record of the self-titled song for the album, as Dave Grohl and Joey record the drums for the rest of the songs.

[@CCDaDon15]

@@plazamiserere it’s important to note Natasha was only a touring member. Alain was the only one of them to be a part of the studio recording of LTP and Era Vulgaris. Mikey and Dean only joined for the tour when Alain turned down continuing with the band after EV finished recording

[@GabrielAvilaLEGENDAS]

This is exactly what I would imagine seeing QOTSA (classic) playing Black Sabbath

[@lopinta1331]

So glad I found this 😊

[@goribor]

Awesome ❤

[@chrisfenton4]

Oh my goodness. What have I just found. Amazing as always x

[@buluiz]

Lol, Josh is both Josh and Ozzy at the same time. Sounds like Ozzy while singing the verse and sounds like himself while singing the chorus.

[@Feenzy218]

Yeah it's weird I can barely recognize it's him singing.. I'd love to hear a version of this where Josh is just singing like himself. I get why they went for a more straight cover but I'm not a huge fan of it.

[@hashitan]

Thanks for uploading this! I have on a CD I burned but lost track of the DVD I recorded back then.

[@user-to4xe6jx2v]

Those people witnessed HISTORY! WOW!!!

[@docbrown9305]

Best band in the world then, and best band in the world now.

[@woofieworld7455]

Obsessed 🔥 🔥

[@noveltycrusade]

Great tune 👍👍

[@Dippedwithsweet]

Omg queens + VH1 this rocks very cool

[@feedxcrane4669]

Troy's the GOAT!

[@jooquila]

Great cover! Great to have it back converter and I think better quality too. Cheers!

[@ws6texp2]

🔥🔥

[@charlesmaas3984]

this is truly amazing

[@cherryblossomed]

It was Mikey's birthday that day!! Happy birthday Mikey!!

[@Mr.Guild1971]

Was unaware this happened .Queens can do no wrong

[@folkartlullaby]

Added bonus the witch from the cover of sabbaths first album introduced them … sweet

[@ApPot]

Holy Crap!!!!

[@michaeldevers4861]

How have I never seen this?

[@alexsetterington3142]

The first cover I heard them play was Into The Void, obviously also Sabbath. Maybe that was Kyuss, but close enough.

[@markheelis]

Would anyone else love to hear a whole album of QOTSA Sabbath covers?

[@madskirkthgersen762]

Great cover. Anyone heard their version of Goin' out west?

[@Matt.E9480]

Yep l listen to it all the time. To be honest l am trying to let it grow on me. Not my favourite so far 🤠

[@goobergoon6177]

troy is sick

[@mikewood9514]

Great cover!!

[@Matt.E9480]

Last l heard Josh never heard of Black Sabbath 😅

[@DeadLifeBoat100]

Are those fake crowd sounds lmao

[@APAL880]

Yeah

[@2010georgian1]

THIS IS FUCKING INSANE

[@alexsetterington3142]

What the heck? I've been listening to Qotsa since 2000, I don't remember this!

[@Vivianblue.]

Poor Troy trying his hardest to not dance his arse off that tiny stage 😂

[@robpace881]

Troy rocking a Les Paul!!

[@cherryblossomed]

Fucking wicked 🤟

[@amjh4lah809]

2nd comment, first minute, 3rd like 😊

[@klehtun]

joey was always ready for zakk sabbath and is it just me or is the broadcast pumpin in fake crowd noise?

[@mundiclub8956]

If you think that's bad.. check out the most recent Arctic Monkeys at Glasto. Think it was last year or year before. How to ruin a performance with audience mics.

[@florenciathomas]

I had this vinyl. Somehow it disappeared

[@Stone_MIDI]

What vinyl was this on?

[@florenciathomas]

@@Stone_MIDI dk exactly but it seems to me it was 'Paranoid'

[@fishchipsandmushypeas]

Is this the only song Queens did that night?

[@webertisaias8622]

foda

[@Rgonzo490071981]

This must have been cut from the original airing… typical VH1/MTV Bullcrap for denying the world of this..

[@engelbertus1406]

is that Meatloaf at 1:03

[@ZonalMarking]

Well, this was unexpected.

[@daniel_lustosa]

the crowd‘s volume is too damn high

[@hughzapretti-boyden9187]

Comedy gold!😂

[@rbraghetto]

1:13, the rock spotted

[@Littlewing6was9]

Thirst 🌒🌼

[@rodv6696]

Great effort of Josh, his voice is too low for this song.

[@flaccidjack]

Gunt?

[@Rurikpaon]

Who is the woman host in the beginning of the video?

[@Malverde888]

Jada Pinkett-Smith

[@Rurikpaon]

Thats crazy

[@Malverde888]

@@Rurikpaon she had a Nu Metal band in the late 90s. It’s not that crazy tbh

[@Rurikpaon]

Thats crazy too!

[@michaeldevers4861]

This couldn’t be the least fitting Queens cover.

[@joaquinandrade7406]

Josh voice is so versatyle. If he wants to he can make a black metal album lol

[@JackPeloquin]

Jesus Christ with the “xtra crowd noise” this is just horrible.

[@nathanmuir5420]

Camera work at it’s worst.

[@MrEyeM]

man this was sloppy! ahhaha love them anyway

[@jeremiahmatthewgreatmanofpeace]

Totally different song when the singer isn't tone deaf.

[@JCxGOLF]

you think he’s tone deaf in this ?

[@Omnetto__]

Who is tone deaf?

[@-Orion.]

since when was Ozzy tone deaf? the original cut of this song has a very clear melody

[@jeremiahmatthewgreatmanofpeace]

@@-Orion. I'm just playing, it's a thing people say to trigger Ozzy fans.

[@jeremiahmatthewgreatmanofpeace]

@@JCxGOLF no, Josh sings well. He's just about my favorite male vocalist.

[@iommiclife794]

this fake cheering from tape is so cringe

[@MikesTrueStories]

Joey always looked completely out of place in Queens of the Stone Age.

[@autopilot980]

You talking about the best qotsa drummer lil bro

[@santicarbajal3927]

​@@autopilot980Jon >>>>>>>>

[@MikesTrueStories]

@@autopilot980 the best? Man there are quite a few live videos of Joey rushing all over the place. He’s a great drummer but definitely not the best Queens ever had. However, in my comment I was more referring to how he looks and his style of dress.

[@TerrorTedd]

​@@autopilot980 Give me some of what you've been smoking.

[@yourmomdx]

Agreed

[@givemeanaxe]

jesus this recording mix is... 💩 great performance of it though.

[@gandolin66]

That is blasphemy against the Prince of Darkness.🦇

[@En.labsdtorbe]

It was when they was real stone. Now it's pop stone age 😂

[@DHTerry]

So true now they are “woke” 😂 like “Jo”e Bi“den” 😂 🤣

[@Mikeys_Shows]

not really they are still rock… just switching up the sound like every musician does

[@SixteenJacobsCreams]

new album's pretty heavy tho? and this is a cover

[@_naco1070]

Lol this was the same year Era Vulgaris dropped, I wonder what the fans were thinking at the time...

[@Mikeys_Shows]

@@_naco1070 exactly lol😂😂😂

[@carontester]

the bass player is not up to the task

[@santicarbajal3927]

This says more about the bassists Josh picks rather than anything else since Mikey is by a difference the best bassist they have had

[@carontester]

@@santicarbajal3927 or maybe the best bassit they ever had isnt as good as geezer

[@jalamanta]

He's improved a lot since then.

[@kuerst]

Most of Black Sabbath's audience are white men. So who are we gonna get to introduce the song? A black woman. Greeeeeeat. How about next we have Kid Rock introduce Beyonce singing Etta James.

[@Croft64]

What a bizarre hill to die on.

[@daanreins5326]

Hey man, hope you're okay, because what the fuck are you talking about.

[@quiilbe527]

Why would you even say something like this 💀

[@kuerst]

What's bizarre is you equating leaving a comment on KZbin to dying on a hill.@@Croft64

[@kuerst]

Because the intro choice was inappropriate. Jada played Ozzfest? So what. At a rough guess, 80%+ of the band members who've played Ozzfest were white men and 80%+ of the festivals audience members have been white men. Tokenism is a shallow form of inclusion.

[@johnnydoeman3254]

I love Queens but this cover sucked especially the solo and the introduction by G.I. Jane

[@yourmomdx]

Oof 👎🏼 not the band to cover this song
