It was the first Judas Priest single to chart in the UK Top 40, reaching number 14. The song was an attempt at producing a stadium shoutalong tune in the mould of Queen's "We Will Rock You". It was also covered by new wave band The Human League on their 1980 tour.[1] As a single it sold around 400,000 copies.
