...I was thinking about where to place War Pigs but honestly that song as great as it is has suffered a massive inflation over the years...

You really shouldn't allow your overexposure to a song to detract from its excellence.

^^Agree. Which is why I included Iron Man. Forget how overplayed it is. Break that song down into its many movements and the story it tells and think "this actually came out in 1970"  It's staggering! Nothing would've come close to being anything like it when it came out. You could say that about a lot of Sabbath's early work but especially Iron Man.

However I will stick with the rules, but if we do an ac/dc one, I can/will not keep it at 5 each.  :rockon:

Top five

War Pigs
Wheels of Confusion
National Acrobat
Heaven and Hell
The Sign of the Southern Cross

Near Miss

Iron Man
A Hard Road
Over To You
Walk Away
Falling off the Edge of the World

That's the thing now isn't it...it is really hard to do that when you already get a bit annoyed when you hear the song...granted not as much as lets say Paranoid or Iron Man but still.

That being said...War Pigs has never been among my absolute favourite Sabbath songs. Even on Paranoid I'd choose Electric Funeral over it.

I was actually glad to see there were some complaints about the 5 and 5 limitation.  It told me that there is still a lot of passion here concerning Sabbath's music.   :rockon:

After a few more members submit their choices, I will release some statistics.  Hope to hear from 8bit, Axefiend, JStheConqueror, Scott, Sicko, Tyr66.
