hello,this song can be the best of judas priest ?

He had enough
He couldn't take anymore
He'd found a place
In his mind and slammed the door
No matter how they tried
They couldn't understand
They washed and dressed him
Fed him by hand

Yeah! I've left the world behind
I'm safe here in my mind
Free to speak with my own kind
This is my life, this is my life
I'll decide not you

Withdrawn he'd sit there
Stare blank into space
No sign of life
Would flicker on his face
Until one day he smiled
It seemed as though with pride
The wind kissed him
Goodbye - and then he died

Yeah! I've left the world behind
I'm safe here in my mind
Free to speak with my own kind
This is my life, this is my life
I'll decide not you

Keep the world with all its sin
It's not fit for livin' in
Yeah! I will start again
It can take forever, and ever, and ever
And ever, but I'll still win.
How many like him,
Are there still
But to us, all
Seem to have lost the will
They lie in thousands
Plagued and lost
Is nothing worth this bitter cost

Yeah! I've left the world behind
I'm safe here in my mind
Free to speak with my own kind
This is my life, this is my life
I'll decide not you

Keep the world with all its sin
It's not fit for livin' in

Maybe, it's certainly in most Priest fan's top 10, however, Victim of
Changes and Painkiller are serious contenders.

It's a killer track for sure. If pressed, I would probably claim SC
to be my favorite JP album. It is the one I have listened to the most
the past 10-15 years.

After taking a couple year reprieve I have been listening to Stained
Class quite a bit lately, but when it comes to picking one song it's
hard. I like different Priest songs at different times. Sometimes
I really like Desert Plains for example.

I have sort of taken a bit of a JP reprieve of late. I have hardly
listened to any JP the past year. I will make up for it though, this
year.

While I like this song a lot and it would be in my top 10 Priest
songs, IMO they have better songs to consider for the number one spot.
Painkiller, Victim Of Changes and Sinner are a few that come to mind
immediately.

Does this mean I have to dislike this song and solo now?

You bet. You can keep PoE,Turbo,AoR, and Nostradamus if you like. The rest
will have to be joint custody.

Yes, this is one of the best songs by Judas Priest esp. with its 3:05
(or 3:10) guitar work by Glenn that blows away the guitar work in Pink
Floyd's 'Comfortably Numb'... and a big complaint I have about Pink
Floyd is will it really kill them to move around on stage???
Another top track by Judas Prest with equally impressive guitar
work: Touch of Evil. For the '70's, don't forget Dreamer Deceiver.
We're all different, but it was exciting to hear "Rock Hard Ride Free"
performed live roughly two years ago.
I haven't heard any updates on Ronnie James Dio but it would be nice
to have a Hear N' Aid concert in 2010 or 2011... or better yet, 2012.
Imagine Heaven and Hell, AC/DC, Megadeth, maybe Stryper, and Judas
Priest performing. That I wouldn't mind paying good money for!
Nothing can really equal what happened in October 1985 to me at the
then Washington, D.C., Convention Center: 2nd row, center stage...
for AC/DC... and I bought my ticket about a week after my friends
bought theirs.
Closest I've got to that since then is 10th row in 1988 when AC/DC
played the Capital Centre and Row K in 2008 in December in Charlotte,
NC, where after the show, got a free can of Monster beverage, dropped
off two shirts I purchased (before I entered the show, paid $10 for a
shirt and after the show paid $5 for a different shirt), then went to
a nearby convenience store and bought a Budweiser Ale and a sandwich,
then upon returning to the Days Inn, partied with some fellow AC/DC
fans that I met. Had at least 4 Heinekens, a big shot of rum, a big
shot of tequila, got up late the following day and still have no idea
how I got to my room. Upon wakening, found part of the sandwich (a
Po' Boy) outside my room and the rest inside.
Now that's what I call a show!
Rock Hard Ride Free...
P.S. Not as great a seat for AC/DC in Las Vegas this Year on April 9
(a Friday), but should definitely be good. Close to floor toward the
back at the MGM Grand Garden. Saw Priest about two years or so ago at
the Palms, then last year at the Thomas and Mack Center which I
consider the better show...
P.P.S. If you go see 'Avatar', see it 3D or 3D IMAX!

Heaven and Hell have booked several gig sfor 2010 so they must be pretty
confident that he`s going to be alright.

Stryper?? I guess you need some time to hit the bar...

Damn, that's harsh. At least I don't have to keep Jug and Demo.

Hmm...

after all these years a JP top ten for me must be :

Dreamer Deceiver / Deceiver
Victim of changes
Run of the mill
Here come the tears / followed by the first 30 seconds of Dissident
aggressor:)
Blood red skies
The Sentinel
Painkiller
A Touch of evil
Tyrant
Desert Plains (1983 Live version)

Very close followers :

Rock hard ride free
Jawbreaker
Reckless


Beyond the realms of death

Hard as Iron

You like Demo? I guess Jug to some degree isn't bad, but Demo has a
few very bad songs.

70 minutes that feels like 90.

I'd probably like it better if it was about 45 minutes long, with a
few songs not included.

I really don't remember, but it seemed stupid from the beginning.
