Jeden ze základních kamenů hardrockové muziky 70. let a skupina, která naznačila další ubírání rockové hudby směrem k heavy metalu. Pozdější metalové proudy navazovaly i na jejich složku textovou a ideovou (okultismus, mysticismus apod.)....

Píseň: You Won't Change Me

Interpret:
Black Sabbath
Album:
Technical Ecstacy
I'm just a man and I am what I am 
Nobody will ever change my ways 
I don't need money and I don't need no lies 
I only need to live for today 
But I'd like to talk things over with you 
I want to hear the things you say, today 
Although you won't change my anyway, no no way 
I wish you'd come and see me, I'd like to hold you 
I want to set my mind all free 
You understand me woman, you give me time 
But I don't need no sympathy 
Still I wonder what it's like to be loved 
Instead of hiding in myself 
Nobody will change me anyway, no no way 
Nobody's gonna change my world 
That's something too unreal 
Nobody will change the way I feel 
So listen to me now, hear what I say 
Please give me time and maybe love 
If there's a God up there, well I hope he helps me 
I need him now to set me free 
'Cause it may be that it's over for me 
If you don't hear the things that I say, today 
Nobody will change me anyway, no no way 
Nobody's gonna change my world, that's something too unreal 
Nobody will change the way I feel
