I also considered to add that song - very underrated and beautiful ballad. Well, I won't place it at #1, but I can make a change to my list, right. :)

K.K. has said that this song was considered to be a single and have contained very long solo by him, but it was cut down after it was decided that it's not going to be a single.

2.Beyond the Realms of Death
3.The Sentinel
4.Sinner
5.Saints in Hell
6.Desert Plains
7.Freewheel Burning
8.Painkiller
9.Tyrant
10.The Hellion/Electric Eye
 
This was a lot harder than I thought it was going to be.
8. Necromancer

Yes indeed. Well, I like Necromancer, great solos, build-up and pre-chorus, but the chorus is a bit weak. I was definitely surprised to see this song in a top 10 list.

I expected that you will add some song from the Nostradamus album.... ;)

Really? I love it; brutal riffs, Rob sounds awesome and a nice classic trade off solo section. The chorus is weaker than the rest, but I love the effect of Rob's backing vocals, I can totally picture a chorus of the undead singing those lines. BLACK UNHOLY GHOST!

As for Nostradamus...

The bottom five are likely to change...

:p


 
Necromancer sounds like Priest trying to replicate The Chemical Wedding and Death’s Symbolic. Halford sounds like Chuck Schuldiner in some parts. It’s a brutally great song.
 
I must say I am surprised that so far, no one have putted Breaking the Law in their lists.... :eek:

This song is the emblem of Priest, and the riff alone, makes it a top 10 for me.

2. Victim of Changes
3. Beyond the Realms of Death
4. Before the Dawn
5. Night Comes Down
6. A Touch of Evil
7. Dissident Aggressor
8. Running Wild
9. Sinner
10. Never the Heroes
 
1. Rock Hard Ride Free
2. Hell Bent For Leather
3. The Sentinel
4. Devil’s Child
5. Exciter
6. Beyond The Realms of Death
7. Heading Out To The Highway
