Judas Priest first roared "You've Got Another Thing Comin'" out of 1982's Screaming for Vengeance, and it turns up again on the 1987 live set Priest… Live!, which is fitting, because this song was made for the stage. Glenn Tipton, Rob Halford and K. K. Downing wrote it as a big, strutting, mid-tempo stomp, the guitars locked in a swagger and Halford at full sneer.

It went out as a single later in 1982, became the band's lone entry on the Billboard Hot 100, and has stood beside "Electric Eye" and "Breaking the Law" as a signature ever since. Priest first played it opening the Vengeance World Tour in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania, in August 1982, and by the 2012 Epitaph Tour they'd played it 673 times. VH1 later put it fifth among its 40 Greatest Metal Songs.
