Makes me want to throw up on myself every time that turd interrupts the rest of Vol. 4. Seriously, what the hell were they thinking?

"Wheels of Confusion" is actually my favorite Sabbath tune, so I have to put up with that song every now and then when I listen to that album.

Maybe it is just because I can compare it to most of Ozzy's solo output, but I actually don't mind Changes.

I do, however, mind it when Kelly tried singing it.

My problem with it is that it is just so.. un-Sabbath like. Know what I mean? I don't listen to them to hear cheesy break up songs.

Otherwise I probably wouldn't mind either.

Yeah, I can totally understand that. It is a bit jarring every time I hear it...takes me a moment or two to adjust. But I try not to let it ruin a near flawless album.

Anyone else think Technical Ecstasy doesn't get the respect it deserves? I always see bad reviews for it.

Personally, I always thought it to be a load of rubbish or at best very average. I last listened to it some years ago now..............probably give it another twirl sometime soon and I might have a different opinion about it.

i hear ya. the rest of the disc is all killer aside from the FX filler, which isn't nearly as bad as 'Changes' but still quite unnecessary.

then again you can hear someone saying '....cccooooCCCCAaaaaiiiiinnnnneee...' in the background to Snowblind so that might explain a bit of why Changes ended up on the disc.

Now that you come to mention it. I don't think I ever listened to it.

Technical Ecstasy is a pretty poor album unfortunately but saying that Never say Die is not all that BUT this track is one of my 2nd tier faves:
