paranoid #blacksabbath

"Paranoid" is a classic track by Black Sabbath, released in 1970 on their second album, Paranoid. Written in a rush to fill album space, it became one of their signature songs, hitting #4 on the UK Singles Chart and #61 on the US Billboard Hot 100. The song’s raw energy, driven by Tony Iommi’s iconic riff, Bill Ward’s relentless drums, and Ozzy Osbourne’s frantic vocals, captures a sense of mental unraveling and disillusionment. Its lyrics, penned by Geezer Butler, reflect feeling trapped and alienated, with lines like “Finished with my woman ’cause she couldn’t help me with my mind.”

The album itself, recorded in a few days, is a cornerstone of heavy metal, blending dark, heavy riffs with themes of war, mental strife, and societal critique. Paranoid was certified 4x platinum in the US and remains a cultural touchstone, covered by bands like Megadeth and Avenged Sevenfold, and ranked #34 on VH1’s “40 Greatest Metal Songs.” Posts on X often celebrate its raw power, with fans citing it as a gateway to metal or a timeless banger still played at shows, like Ozzy’s recent performances.
