I never heard the version by Slayer. And you know what? I don't need to. Does that sound ignorant? Maybe. All I know is that NO ONE sings like Halford. The Priest version is the only version.
And, I'm hip to covers. There's a version of the Maiden song, "Fear of the Dark" that is on one of the tribute albums. It was performed by Chuck Billy, Craig Goldy, Ricky Phillips, and Mikkey Dee for the tribute album Numbers from the Beast.
I love Maiden. But this version of "Fear" is the best.
