Your top 3 songs from the Black Sabbath album Paranoid?

[LordJohn]

I know they're the cliche choices, but it's Paranoid, War Pigs, and Iron Man. Planet Caravan narrowly missed out.

Your picks?

Exactly the same. as yours.

War Pigs. I didn't like it at first but it eventually became a favorite. Plus it's a lot fun to play on guitar too!

Paranoid is a very Un- Sabbath song actually. It was written quickly and released mostly because it had some commercial potential, similar to Purple's Black Night. In fact for years it was the only Sabbath song I knew, as I never listened to the radio. Then I heard their first 3 albums and I was amazed at the sound the band managed to achieve.

Fairies Wear Boots has a cool jazzy vibe to it that fits the early Sabbath sound really well.
