Peeps, here’s your gut-wrenching-frenzy Wednesday hump-day jam.
No video but the lyrics will do, especially with the PMRC considering them to be “too sexual, potentially masochistic, and probably homoerotic.”
Definitely homoerotic with Halford coming out back in 1998.

And since it’s now been officially declared as Judas Priest Tuesday, here’s your tell-me-theres-no-other jam, also for this Valentine’s Day.
“We feel so close to heaven in this roaring heavy load. And then in sheer abandonment, we shatter and explode.” — 🤔
More 80s dancing, too.

Peeps, here’s your very special classy-flashy-lassy jam for this Valentine’s Day.
How could you go wrong with… “She’s a grip and choke ya. Heavy smoker. Wrong side of the law.”
And here they are live on the BBC so you can see how pretty they were.

Halford on coming out:

Thank you T. I guess I really need to get out more (laughing to myself). Nope, I had no idea Halford was gay. I didn’t listen to too much JP but I’ve done more than my share of bleating about these types.
IE “these types”: Club Camel circa 90’s. At least half of the personalities I’m thinking of modeled their style on JP’s front man. And to learn that he’s gay just ices the cake for me. These are guys that have definite opinions on the whole gay thing and they would definitely not let their daughter date someone of that ilk. (I’m still killing it here for me.)
File this under “you would have to know him” and let’s plan a JP listening party soon.

I never thought of him, never suspicioned him of being gay but looking at pictures l like him on the cover of Creem all I can think is, “yep.”
There’s probably been whole legions of JP devotees who did a second take when he came out of the closet, thought maybe this leather I’m wearing head to toe has been sending an unintended message.
