2nd-greatest metal song of all time according to DDD... It should probably have a mention in the top 250 of the 70s.

A friend of mine just posted this on youtube, the X-Rated version of "Kiss And Say Goodbye." It's really R rated, but it's still really funny.

That list is by a different editor using different criteria, and the criteria for that list specify "within the world of metal".
