- This was an interesting song, with two totally different sounds. The versatility and creativity shown here is impressive. And we discuss Jam and Jelly.

Black Sabbath is an innovator of progressive rock. They will switch from one beat and groove flawlessly to a completely different beat and groove and then end up back where they started. It’s what makes them, them
Wait until you hear Black Sabbath’s “Supernaut” from 1972!
Bill Ward is a total beast in this track. The song itself marked the birth of modern metal.
He has impressed every single time.
There was an SNL skit years ago where Horatio Sanz played the part of Ozzy in the studio recording a new track. It was lunch break and they were taking orders. Ozzy kept telling them what he wanted on his sandwich but no one could understand him, so he had to sing it for them.
Hahaha! That's fantastic!
@@CoachCastTV Also just FYI, Sabbath had four other singers besides Ozzy and Dio: Ian Gillan (formerly of Deep Purple) for one album, Glenn Hughes (formerly of Trapeze and Deep Purple) for one album, Ray Gillan (no relation to Ian) for one demo album, and Tony Martin for five albums.
@@sabbracadabra7503 Did not know this...appreciate you sharing!
greatest band in history... and in all that years i dont remember a single bad song... not one... in over 50 years....unbelievable...
"Bill Ward, Whew!" Yep. That about says it all.
Edit: Throughout the 70's as I garnered my musical library I am of the opinion an English Accent helps make words more easily understandable when singing.
Interesting theory. 👍
The song is filled with metaphors pertaining to conception, birth, love and life....the love a father has for his child. The line "Seventh Avent Unicorn is waiting in the skies" is referring to the babies mobile over her crib. "Father of Creation takes me from my stolen tomb" = birth.
Ah, very cool. Thanks for the comment.
One of the best reactions I ever seen
You are very kind. Thank you.
Don’t apologize for your opinion about the brief period Dio fronted Sabbath . Most Sabbath fans from the beginning far and away prefer the 70s Sabbath . The 80s brought a lot of new fans who liked the style of heavy metal /hard rock of that time, so they prefer Dio , who brought a generic hard rock sound to the band for two studio albums . You can listen to some more Dio Sabbath, but it’s the same generic 80s stuff…Sabbath was and is influential for their first 4-6 albums, not for anything they did with Dio.
Coach, this was 1975 it was groundbreaking. Many think this was the first thrash song, you can hear Sabbath in the DNA of almost all 80's thrash bands.
It sounds quite similar to Stone Cold Crazy by Queen, so this might be a subconscious homage. Tony and Brian May have known each other since 1973 and are best friends.
Ozzy had a quad bike accident that changed everything. His speech, his demeanour. Everything.
I don't think so. I've seen interviews of him from the early 90s when he had just moved to LA and he's pretty much the incoherent, stuttering wreck we now know him by. I've seen a fairly recent interview of him when he was in England and he's still a little impaired sounding, but much more coherent than we're normal used to. I think the fault is his American doctors who prescribed him so many pills for various things. By some counts he was taking 40 different pills a day. Take him out of LA and away from his doctors and he's a lot more coherent!
to every song you should read the lyrics , this one is poetry
Hi Coach and Mrs Coach - off the very first album I ever owned. HUGE Sabbath and Ozzy Iommi offshoots) fan my entire adult life. Through Purple, Pink Floyd, Iron Maiden, Rush et al and now you two the discovery of Nightwish and Floor has just continued my love of the "heavier" side of music through my 60s.
That's awesome. We appreciate you being with us.
I take this song as. You can see our consequences and fruits in people eyes, children. You reap what you sow. The sadness and sorrow is the symptom of the causes
Considered the best Heavy Metal song of all time in many opinions. Another for consideration is Sabbath Bloody Sabbath
I don't recommend it as a review, but the track before this on Sabotage is "Don't Start (Too Late)": it's under a minute, but it's a great intro to "Symptom of the Universe". Instrumental, short and sweet. Lots of that on the Ozzy-era albums.
FYI....At its core, the song seems to be about the power of love to transcend time and space. The lyrics take the listener on a journey through time, from the supersonic years to the present day. The "symptom of the universe" mentioned in the song could be interpreted as a manifestation of this timeless love, which is "written in your eyes."
Nice interpretation. Thanks for sharing.
The singer for Deep Purple, Ian Gillan, followed Dio, and also the very underrated and great Tony Martin also followed, and had the second longest tenure after Ozzy. I suggest Into the Void from 1971; Sabbath, Bloody Sabbath from 1974; and When Death Calls from the Tony Martin era in 1989. Tony Iommi (eye-OWE-me) was the music writer and lead guitar player who was a creative genius, and was the one who hired each of these singers.
Good to know. Didn't realize they had that many lead singers.
@@CoachCastTV If you include Glenn Hughes who sang on the album after Ian Gillan and before Tony Martin, then that's 5 who've sung on a Sabbath album... but if you include people who've sung in Sabbath but not on an album then that number actually goes up to 10.
@@circulation69 Oh wow...so much we still have to learn about this group.
It was the Jelly and the Jam! Lol... I'm looking forward to your reaction to "Hand of Doom", "Electric Funeral", and "Behind the Wall of Sleep".
" Snowblind" is another tour de force by Bill Ward (but in a more subltle manner) . For the Dio era check "Sign of the southern cross" ( or nearly any track from "Heaven & Hell") . The pinnacle of Tommy Iommy as a soloist is "Dirty woman" . They've also record many outstanding tracks where they step aside from the rock genre (the floydish "Planet caravan", maybe my favorite track, many acoustic guitar gems as "Fluff", some proto jazz-rock space rock "Air dance" . They had so much creativity that I believe that we have not exploited yet all their legacy to this day.
Their diversity is impressive, they are not a one-trick pony for sure.
Fun fact. Bill Wards red tights on the album cover were actually his wife’s. I can’t remember the story but I remember that he had to change for some reason.
LOL, that's great!
Check out Megalomania, After Forever, and Tomorrows dream by them!
I finally found the songs "Hand of Doom" and "Rat Salad" together. I don't understand why more people aren't recommending this one. I couldn't find it with lyrics but it's not too hard to understand, it's an experience! Here's a link czcams.com/video/EvyLh-zqkLI/video.htmlsi=fvsyLJ10ACY7WJ0M
Thanks!
Opeth about 15 years before Opeth.
Bill Ward . . MAN, Love it, that's all that needs to be said
Mrs Coach still needs to listen to " Lonely is the Word" she's missing out.
😁👍 For sure!
The greatest Iommi solo of all time.
This song celebrates whatever you believe in. It's all a symptom of the universe and a love that never dies. The second verse has 3 parts...the first is for those who believe in earthly spirits, the second part is for those who prefer heavenly beliefs, and the third part is a bit whimsical by referring to the unicorn. Just having fun.
Over the years I've seen people being quite dismissive of Black Sabbath because they're mostly known for the Paranoid and Iron Man songs, which as good as they are, are fairly basic songs. It's like people knowing The Beatles solely for I Want To Hold Your Hand and Day Tripper. Many of Sabbath's 70s songs are like two or three different songs melded together.
Black Sabbath are so good, they can take a song anywhere. Two to three songs in one with seamless transitions. Jam and jelly are different but both good.
Well said!
The riff is very reminiscent of the composition's riff Queen - Stone Cold Crazy, which was recorded a year earlier.
Great song! Brings back memories. The look on Mrs Coach's face was like WTF! lol Good job.
LOL, thanks!
Yep, I have Bill Ward in my top 5 GOAT drummers. You gotta check him out in their song "Supernaut". I prefer jam over jelly; it spreads better.
😁👍
Hello great reaction.new to the channel and I have already subscribed.Looks like you're on a Black Sabbath binge! Gotta say, I love that you're diving deep into their music.Her is a few songs I think you 2 may like that you haven't done.Electric Funeral,Sweet Leaf,Iron Man,Children Of the Grave.If you want to do some less known tryout Planet Caravan.very slow song original line up.If you want something from when sabbath reunited for one last album check out the song, God is Dead? or End Of The Beginning.
Welcome. Thanks for these suggestions. This band has pleasantly surprised us.
Go Noles!
Hi, Coach and Ms. Coach. In my opinion the Ozzy's voice always had a slight tone of desperation in these times! Hugs from Brazil
That could well be. Thanks so much for stopping by!
Supetnaut is badass as well.
It's funny (and amazing) that people are now discovering a band that I discovered fifty years ago, haha
The music is timeless. 👍
jam > jelly
Black Sabbath 1968-eternity🤘
Nice Reacting I Love It
What I really like about Black S is there guitarist Tony? Don't know his last name!
Yes, Tony Iommi is his name. Excellent guitarist.
We had to wait for computers to be able to draw 16 million colors and Tony was doing it in the 70's.
Absolutely one of my favorite Black Sabbath tunes it has all the elements that very hard start to that brilliant acoustic ending in my opinion it works very well. This was also a period that the band and management were not in agreement leading to this album. Being a fan of Black Sabbath since 1971 I find I like the Ozzy years the best as far as the Dio albums they were much more polished 80s metal but very good. The Thrill Of It All might also make for a good reaction video it’s been enjoyable to watch your channel.
We appreciate that. We're enjoying the discovery of stuff that is new to us.
Black Sabbath were the metal giants of the 70s but have you thought of doing any reactions to the 80s metal giants Iron Maiden?
We have not done any of their stuff yet. We may consider that at some point.
The best version of this song is the Live one recorded in 1975 at a New Jersey concert - faster tempo, absolutely ferocious , without the acoustic outro. It’s on CZcams and was the version included on their Past Lives compilation ….considered the first thrash metal song …the lyrics ? Sorta like “Whiter Shade of Pale “, they sound good but not sure about their meaning .
Good to know. Will have to check that out.

PLEASE REACT TO MEGALOMANIA BY BLACK SABBATH, FROM THIS SAME ALBUM
I agree with Mrs. Coach, they're in the cocaine days with this album. This is where they start to fizzle out until Dio comes along.
Sabotage is a great album. They lost their way with Technical Ecstasy and Never Say Die when Tony wanted to take their sound to a more commercial direction.
It was more than 3 singers
sounds like you need to some Deep Purple😛
*Changes into Blue Tights*
Yeah, those red tights on the cover, ugh! Who would EVER!?
Oh, and for anyone interested, from best to worst... Jelly > 'Idol' by Yoasobi > 'Symptom of the Universe' by Black Sabbath > Jam > Vegemite. #science
LOL...the order of things.
@@CoachCastTV Pretty sure Vegemite is always at the bottom~
@@ErisianThreeFourteen 🤣 It is a universal law.
What is a British jelly?
Not a jam or fruit spread as the term "jelly" might indicate in the States, British jelly is a beautiful, fruit-forward, and refreshing dessert that can take elaborate forms and be decorated with intricate fruit arrangements.21 Apr 2021
What is jelly made of UK?
Glucose-Fructose Syrup, Sugar, Water, Pork Gelatine, Colour (Carmine, Anthocyanins), Citric Acid, Acidity Regulator (Sodium Citrate), Flavouring, Acetic Acid.

Jelly and ice cream is a fave for me.
The really important commentary is always in the comments section! 😁👍
you guys need more Dio era Black sabbath, check out sign of the soutern cross, it is amazing
OK, let’s talk. First off this is a highly underrated album!!! Yes, their biggest hits came earlier and I love them but this 1975 album in my opinion is their musical peak. The songwriting and musicianship is fantastic and Ozzie‘s vocals are through the roof. The singing he did the second part of the song over the acoustic part is some of the best vocals I’ve ever heard him do. And Coach I 100% agree with everything you’ve said about heaven and hell. We all have our opinions and in my opinion Black Sabbath without Ozzie is NEVER Black Sabbath! Yes, I liked Heaven and Hell when it came out, but I can’t listen to it now. You can keep Dio and his singing about wizards and castles and all of that crap lol. Come on, taking Ozzy out of Sabbath is like taking Robert Plant out of Zeppelin it’s not the same band. Of course, yes that’s just in my not so humble opinion lol. 😆
First of all, appreciate your generosity as always. And we absolutely have nothing against Dio at all, it sounded fine. But it wasn't this sound, which is different and is what captivated us initially about this band. Obviously, we do respect the varying opinions on the topic.
Yep, most Sabbath fans from the early 70s share your opinion . I too bought Heaven and Hell when it came out in 1980, and it was good, but it wasn’t Sabbath . Also “ Dungeons and Dragons” Dio was kind of a buffoon, prancing around constantly flashing the sign of the horns .Just silly , juvenile stuff. Nice to hear Coach Cast TV opinion , because it’s fresh ears, immediately seeing Dio era Sabbath as generic 80s hard rock .But Dio has his rabid fans and he is a good hard rock si get, a,tough I don’t care for his vocals - always sound over-the-top and affected to me ….
Just found your channel. Listen to grand funk railroad
Welcome aboard!
Who's Deep Purple? OMG were you living under a rock? Even my 90 year old mother knows who they are!
Jam is way better because it has chunks of fruit in it.😋
Solid argument.
Jam? Jelly? We all know Nutella is the only thing you spread on a sandwich.
Good point! 👍
Black Sabbath is fine but Ozzie Osborne on his own is so much better - there is a reason he won rock album of the year instead of Ghost last year :-)
No way. He's good. But simple is sometimes better. Not that they were simple, maybe raw
I've never really been a fan of Black Sabbath, so I hope I don't offend when I say I'd be happy listening to the instrumentals for a while, but I'd soon come to miss a memorable melody. I'm afraid I can't say I appreciate Ozzy's vocals. IMHO, he's not singing so much as he's screeching... which makes it very hard for me to make out the lyrics.
I listened to it and I'm sorry I don't like it. I tried. You mentioned Deep Purple. I know their song Smoke in the Water. I'm willing to listen to that. Although Queen is my favorite, I do like other groups and solo artists. Aerosmith, the Beatles, ELO, and even ACDC. Have a good day. I'm getting an EMG today which is an uncomfortable procedure.
Best wishes on your procedure. 👍
Other people say they don't like certain songs or artists. Why can't I? I've been following Coach and Mrs. Coach for a long time so I know what I'm talking about. A lot of people didn't like the blues song Brian May sang and told them they didn't.
