i couldn't find a poll thread for this album, so i hope this is the first.

first reaction pick is "The Wizard."

― Bee OK, Wednesday, 17 February 2010 01:18 (fifteen years ago)

So not used to this version actually. But I think I'd vote for the title track no matter which edition.

N.I.B.

I really prefer "Wicked World" to "Evil Woman." I even prefer the Crow version of "Evil Woman" to the Sabbath version.

Title track by a large margin.

The Wizard for me too. Funky drumming!

― Neil S, Wednesday, 17 February 2010 10:18 (fifteen years ago)

You really should have done what the Black Box did and included "Wicked World" AND "Evil Woman". This poll is incomplete. Wicked World is so fucking great.

I consider the Behind the Wall of Sleep/Bassically/NIB the same song, so I guess i'll just go with NIB, but I just cant imagine it without "....Sleep"

This is a tough poll.

― Bill Magill, Wednesday, 17 February 2010 14:19 (fifteen years ago)

Actually, I mistakenly hit "...Sleep" but that's fine.

― Bill Magill, Wednesday, 17 February 2010 14:20 (fifteen years ago)

Wizard or NIB, but I need to hear this again.

― dog latin, Wednesday, 17 February 2010 14:37 (fifteen years ago)

Can someone please sing the main riffs to me?

― dog latin, Wednesday, 17 February 2010 14:37 (fifteen years ago)

got to be the title track. it's so perfect, in every way.

― m the g, Wednesday, 17 February 2010 14:39 (fifteen years ago)

Oh no, no, please God help me

― Brad C., Wednesday, 17 February 2010 15:51 (fifteen years ago)

NIB for me. The end is just wonderful.

― AnotherDeadHero, Wednesday, 17 February 2010 16:32 (fifteen years ago)

my vote does go to "The Wizard."

― Bee OK, Saturday, 20 February 2010 01:05 (fifteen years ago)

The last time I tried the Bring Your iPod night at the bar, The Wizard got booed but the bartender overruled the crowd to save me. I got my free drinks but I was still like, fuck this bar, anyone who boos The Wizard sucks ass. Especially when they all cheer fucking Alive by Pearl Jam.

Automatic thread bump. This poll is closing tomorrow.

― System, Sunday, 21 February 2010 00:01 (fifteen years ago)

Title track without a second thought. Love it all though.

― Nate Carson, Sunday, 21 February 2010 04:56 (fifteen years ago)

Title track without a second thought. Overall my favorite Sabbath--at least in its American edition.

― Nate Carson, Sunday, 21 February 2010 04:59 (fifteen years ago)
