the term "Heavy Metal" actually comes from the song Born to be Wild. at least thats what 'they' say
thats another great song too.
other favorites of mine are Monster, The Ostrich, Desperation, Dont Step on the Grass Sam.
they are all alot longer, and slower though. and very political

well, i dunno... it's between that and Judas Priest.
but damn it, if they don't say it right in the song, i mean, 1968, right?
that was before any Judas Priest, so i'd believe them.
PS: fuck if that rhythm on Magic Carpet Ride isn't just the musification of riding on the hood of a car down the interstate...on acid.

while were on the heavy metal topic, i was curious and looked at wikipedias heavy metal article and was suprised to find that the one and only William Burroughs used the term in the early 60s
Etymology:
Quote:
The origin of the term "heavy metal" in a musical context is uncertain. The phrase has been used for centuries in chemistry and metallurgy, where the periodic table organizes elements of both light and heavy metals (e.g., uranium). An early use of the term in modern popular culture was by countercultural writer William S. Burroughs. His 1962 novel The Soft Machine includes a character known as "Uranian Willy, the Heavy Metal Kid". Burroughs's next novel, Nova Express (1964), develops the theme, using heavy metal as a metaphor for addictive drugs: "With their diseases and orgasm drugs and their sexless parasite life forms—Heavy Metal People of Uranus wrapped in cool blue mist of vaporized bank notes—And The Insect People of Minraud with metal music".[58] The phrase was later lifted by Sandy Pearlman, who used the term to describe The Byrds for their supposed "aluminium style of context and effect", particularly on their album The Notorious Byrd Brothers (1968).[59] Jimi Hendrix, playing in Sweden in 1967
Metal historian Ian Christe describes what the components of the term mean in "hippiespeak": "heavy" is roughly synonymous with "potent" or "profound," and "metal" designates a certain type of mood, grinding and weighted as with metal.[60] The word "heavy" in this sense was a basic element of beatnik and later countercultural slang, and references to "heavy music"—typically slower, more amplified variations of standard pop fare—were already common by the mid-1960s. Iron Butterfly's debut album, released in early 1968, was titled Heavy. The first use of "heavy metal" in a song lyric is in reference to a motorcycle in the Steppenwolf song "Born to Be Wild", also released that year:[61] "I like smoke and lightning/Heavy metal thunder/Racin' with the wind/And the feelin' that I'm under."
The first documented use of the phrase to describe a type of rock music identified to date appears in a review by Barry Gifford. In the May 11, 1968, issue of Rolling Stone, he wrote about the album A Long Time Comin' by U.S. band Electric Flag: "Nobody who's been listening to Mike Bloomfield—either talking or playing—in the last few years could have expected this. This is the new soul music, the synthesis of white blues and heavy metal rock."[62] In January 1970 Lucian K. Truscott IV reviewing Led Zeppelin II for the Village Voice described the sound as "heavy" and made comparisons with Blue Cheer and Vanilla Fudge.[63]
Other early documented uses of the phrase are from reviews by critic Mike Saunders. In the November 12, 1970 issue of Rolling Stone, he commented on an album put out the previous year by the British band Humble Pie: "Safe as Yesterday Is, their first American release, proved that Humble Pie could be boring in lots of different ways. Here they were a noisy, unmelodic, heavy metal-leaden shit-rock band with the loud and noisy parts beyond doubt. There were a couple of nice songs...and one monumental pile of refuse". He described the band's latest, self-titled release as "more of the same 27th-rate heavy metal crap".[64]

Burroughs, ya, that isn't surprising actually. but interesting nevertheless...that is has the drug connotation...because i dunno, i kinda feel the same way about the wording...like i said, if you've seen the music video of Magic Carpet Ride (or video of them playing life at that point in time), you can see the singer just straight up tripping is his ass off, he's pale as a ghost, wearing sunglasses, looking around slowly and basically stiff as shit; and i remember that feeling on Acid, where it feels like you've got metal pumping through your veins, so i associate that feeling with what i see in the dude, and i'd presume he' s tripping more face than i ever have personally so maybe you would look like that...fucked, i mean. but the words "heavy metal" do come to mind when i think about it.

oh thought this thread was about iconic songs we loved instead, in that case, some stuff I really love that I think deserves more love :
The Extraordinaires - warehouse song
The extraordinaires - seeds of jealousy
Brad Sucks - there's something wrong
PUP - guilt trip
this is such a cool music video too.
