The Most + Least Played Song Live Off Every Black Sabbath Album
Here is the most and least played song live off each of Black Sabbath's studio albums.
I'll be up front here, you probably already know the songs Black Sabbath played the most over the years.
But there are quite a few surprises in the list that you'll want to look for. Keep an eye out for:
- How many times the most played song is connected to the album title
- How often the band dipped into less-popular albums like Forbidden and Cross Purposes from the Tony Martin-era
- The dramatic shift in album cover art
- And just how many times they played "Paranoid" through the year.
SPOILER ALERT: They've played songs from Paranoid more than 4,000 times with more than 1,000 of those being the title track.
