"You can't put out this love
The fire burns below"

Fire Burns Below is another slow number and another song in which Rob deals with his inner conflict.

Stained Class is a great album, but in terms of ranking, I think this time I'll put it after Sad Wings. I'll give it 4 out of 5 fires that burn below.

Ranking:
1. Sad Wings of Destiny 4,5
2. Stained Class 4
3. Sin After Sin 4
4. Rocka Rolla 3

Beyond the Realms of Death is next in my #JudasPriest #Metaljourney

And I think it might be a fitting contribution to @Kitty 's #TuneTuesday this week. Because @VestigialLung asks for #TheDeepestCut - lesser known songs from famous bands.

Arguably the best song on Stained Class, even though it's a ballad. But it's a great one 🤘

Do you know the Canadian Speed Metal Band #Exciter? They are named after the opener of Judas Priest's fourth studio album "Stained Class".

I alwas thought that was a bit of strange name for an album, but what do I know?
Note: I thought the album was called Stained Glass 🤦

The album is (again) one of my favourites.

Anyhow, here's the the song with the iconic title (and sing-along harmonies):
