Halford: "Forgotten Generation " Metal God Essential V.1

HALFORD's video for the song "Forgotten Generation" has been posted online at YouTube.com. The track, which was officially released on November 21, 2006 via iTunes, is the first new HALFORD song in more than four years.

"Forgotten Generation" deals with alienation, and Halford told Launch that he wrote the lyrics to speak to and for everyone. "To me, it means the assertation of every individual to kind of have a voice that's valuable and needs to be heard," he said. "So I'm talking about hypocrisy, I'm talking about, you know, speaking up and letting your feelings be felt and heard, and not being passed by, and that's just a streak that I carry with me, I'm the eternal optimist, in that respect.
