I agree with angel of disease The subject matter is actually brilliantly sad and well written all around.

Victim of Changes was a masterpiece and the lyrics was so well thought of that it became a huge success and is still to this day I think, is the most looked at.

United (from British Steel) is too slow/fast/cheesy for appearing in this poll?

Sad Wings of Destiny is the finest album ever recorded (IMHO). 'Victim of Changes' builds/maintains the kind of tension that you don't normally find in mid-pacer. They might have got a little pan crazy during the ethereal part; but, I even like that part too. The crescendo with Halford's display of vocal supremacy and the guitar solo = awesome.

Voted A Touch of Evil, really good song. I really like Night Comes Down too which wasn't in the list.

I was torn between "Victim of Changes" and "Beyond the Realms of Death" but opted for "Victim" It's just such a complete song. Atmosphere, lyrics, amazing performance from the Glen and KK, not to mention one of Rob's best vocals.

I go with Touch of Evil. great solo, great vocal. Judas Priest's Pain killer is one of the best metal albums ever made.

A Touch of Evil it has got to be for me. Although Angel was very good too.

"Beyond the Realms of Death." That is such an amazing, emotional song. I love them all, but yeah, that's my favorite.

This is choosing between my favourite Priest songs... but ultimately I pick "Dreamer Deceiver" over "Beyond the Realms of Death".

Beyond the Realms of Death. Heard it live last summer and Rob's voice is still godlike.

Fire Burns Below is - in my opinion - one of their very best songs, definitely my favorite slow piece of Judas Priest.

Dreamer/Deciever, although it was hard not voting for Victim of Changes. Recently I have grown to appreciate Before the Dawn.

I don't get how Beyond The Realms Of Death has 18 more votes than Victim Of Changes, personally.
