New York-based alternative singer/songwriter, Victoria Faiella, recently issued the following message:
“Thank you Tony Iommi for the best birthday gift I could have ever asked for! I am honoured beyond words to have such an incredible endorsement from the maestro himself.”
Victoria continues: “Black Sabbath's “War Pigs” is a song that has emotionally connected to the hearts of so many. Whether it's the colossal guitar riffs, the anthemic anti-war sentiment, the driving rock grooves, Ozzy Osbourne's soaring, one of a kind vocals, the memories it concurs up, all of the above and then some, “War Pigs” is an undeniable masterpiece that has stood the test of time. It was such a supreme pleasure to cover it and I can only hope that one day soon the lyrics will fail to be so devastatingly relevant. Praying for Peace and sending massive love to ALL!”
