Help identifying Black Sabbath song

[Foogoo]

I hear this intro the other day and judging by the guitar and the fact that I've heard it before years ago, I'm fairly sure it's a Sabbath song but have had no luck in identifying it.

The introduction is a very distinctive and heavy guitar riff, medium tempo descending line. Starts on one note, with the same rhythm descends about three notes and repeats.


DUNNN DUNN dun dun DUNNNN DUNNN dun dun DUNNN ....etc.. if that makes any sense :confused:

You must be a very VERY good musician. :lol:.
On topic now, if this song was on the radio I am guessin it was either Sabbath Bloody Sabbath, Black Sabbath, War Pigs, or Paranoid. By what your saying with the guitar I'll take War Pigs as my guess, I looked online for the guitar tabs because im a bassist not a guitarist... Heres the link, if you play you will know what these tabs mean, if not don't bother looking :lol:, anyways here ya go: http://www.guitartabs.cc/fetchfile.php?fileid=14172971

Hey

me = concert and orchestral brass
sabbath = rock band before i was probably born

No corrolation!
Thanks for the suggestions but I checked those and it's not any of them. Also it wasn't on the radio, I think someone was just playing it.

Hey Kyle, I didn't know you are a Sabbath fan? I was a bass guitar player for 15 years and BS use to be one of my favorite bands. But with Foogoo's "DUNNN DUNN dun dun DUNNNN DUNNN dun dun... I can't really tell whick song it is...

I love Sabbath!! I have seen them 4 times. 2 times this year at ozzfest, Ozzy sucked tho... Also Ozzfest 2 times ago (2004) I saw him at Alpine and Tweeter, they were good that year, well not horrible I should say heh. Classic rock is something I love! Listnin to Metallica (Black album and earlyer are good). I need to stop going off on a music tangent, I can talk about music for hours, infact earlyer tonight I did :lol:.

That's gotta be "Smoke on the Water"

Nevermind, that was Deep Purple.

isn't that song iron man.......?

[crzy4reefs]

Has he lost his mind?
Can he see or is he blind?
Can he walk at all,
Or if he moves will he fall?
Is he alive or dead?
Has he thoughts within his head?
We'll just pass him there
why should we even care?


are these lyrics in the song your are mentioning?

[Sugar Magnolia]

I am Iron Man.

I'm gonna guess war pigs also.

[Foogoo]

Not Smoke on the Water, Iron Man, or War Pigs :(. This has gotta be impossible via text... I guess I finally found a weakness in the internet! Too bad I didn't get a chunk of the lyrics, all I heard was the guitar intro...

your best bet might be to go on amazon and listen to sound clips there
