Some of you are going to hate this but i don't care. Everyone knows British Steel is one of the classic metal albums of all time, no bad songs, awesome musicianship, awesome vocals, the track listing is perfect, just a great metal album all round. However I happen to own the remastered version and following Steeler is a pompous, poncy, crappy song called Red, White and Blue. This song is the most out of place piece of afterbirth ever, it makes me cringe everytime i hear it, especially the cheesy orchestral ending with the cheering crowd. If Priest "unlocked the vaults" to bring us this, my suggestion is that there's a reason there's a vault and next time they decide to unlock it they instead put it on a ship, send it out to sea and throw it overboard. Red, White and Blue sucks and ruins the whole atmosphere of the album. Also the guitar intro sounds like they ripped it off from the Top Gun soundtrack, cheesy gung ho shit.
