Look at Yourself (2017 Remastered)

This is the opening track of the self-titled third album by the British hard rock band Uriah Heep, released in October 1971.

It was also the band’s first song to enter the UK charts.

Being a 1970s track, it leans more toward hard rock than heavy metal, but its uptempo drive—powered by band leader Ken Hensley’s roaring Hammond organ—still gets the heart racing even today in the 21st century.

The midsection featuring organ and guitar in unison is thrilling and highly recommended.

In fact, when I first started a band as a keyboard player, I covered this song myself.

It’s a must-listen for keyboard players who love HM/HR!

Mein Herz BrenntUriah Heep9rank/position

Rammstein – Mein Herz Brennt (Official Video)

A track released in 2012 by Rammstein, a German industrial metal band active since 1994.

It reached No.

7 on the German charts and was used in a 2014 Mercedes-Benz commercial.

MutterUriah Heep10rank/position

Rammstein – Mutter (Official 4K Video)

A track by Rammstein, Germany’s national-level metal band.

The song’s tone—especially the guitar melody—is incredibly cool and gritty.

Also, since the vocalist Till Lindemann’s singing style is based on opera, his voice is deep and powerful, and when combined with metal music, it becomes something magnificent.

I don’t think an epic song is a bad choice for a middle schooler’s alarm, either.

The Magician’s BirthdayUriah Heep11rank/position

Uriah Heep – The Magician’s Birthday (HQ Live 2001)

Uriah Heep’s album The Magician’s Birthday, released in November 1972.

The over-10-minute finale is a suite-style piece that fuses a fantastical worldview with a massive sound.

The thick tones of the Hammond organ, wah-infused guitar, and dramatic vocals weave together a narrative-like progression that feels as if you’re listening to a grand story.

Its structure shifts from a quiet introduction to celebratory choruses, delivering an uplifting mood perfect for a special birthday.

The album containing this track was certified Gold in the United States in January 1973, attesting to its high level of craftsmanship.

It’s a recommended pick for those who want something different from the standard birthday song—epic and dramatically atmospheric.
