Halford's first album "Resurrection" was included in Martin Popoff's "The Top 500 Heavy Metal Albums of All Time". As well, the songs "Silent Screams" and the title-track "Resurrection" were included in Popoff's list. The track "The One You Love to Hate" included guest vocalist Bruce Dickinson, from Iron Maiden.
In 2002, Halford released the second studio album "Crucible", although no live recordings have been officially released to promote this album. A high-quality soundboard bootleg titled "Live - From the Disney House of Blues" was made available for download along with a special DEP at Robhalford.com in 2004. Halford released bonus tracks in Japan, such as "She", "Fugitive", "Rock the World Forever" and "In the Morning".
On November, 2006, Halford released a single set from the Halford IV album, titled "Forgotten Generation." The first wave of Halford releases included remastered editions of his solo band's back catalogue and initially releasing them through Apple's online iTunes Store. Fight also celebrated a release, an early recording entitled "K5- War of Words Demos," which were the demos that Rob Halford had recorded back when Fight had first formed. Lastly, a compilation was included, called "Metal God Essentials, Vol. 1," which not only had the fans' favorite Halford tunes, but also had new songs called "Forgotten Generation" and "Drop Out."
Rob Halford's third solo record, entitled "Halford III - Winter Songs", was released worldwide through all retailers on November 3, 2009. The record features new tracks recorded by his solo band between 2008–2009, as well as traditional Christmas songs re-arranged to heavy metal renditions by Halford himself. The first single, "Get Into the Spirit" was released to radios on September 29, 2009.
On June 25, 2010, Halford released the first single, "The Mower", from his fourth solo studio album, "Halford IV - Made Of Metal", which was released in October 2010.

Halford Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I'm older so I'm wise
I have been crucified
With words personified
Here I am now, I'm your Savior
There can be only one
I'm the master, past and future
I've always stood alone
Your time got overgrown
Those words shot way too wide
No hate can take my pride
Here I am now, I'm your Savior
There can be only one
There's no reason for such treason
Now your end has begun
The lyrics of Halford's song Savior start with a self-confident assertion that the singer is set to paralyze, indicating that he has the ability to render his enemies helpless. He then says that he is wiser due to his age and experience and has been subjected to a figurative crucifixion by words that were personified, suggestive of the power and harm of language. The rest of the song then includes a proclamation that he is the savior, a dominant figure who is the past, present, and future. His time is now, and he deals with his enemies, who he sees as traitors, as he stands alone, proud, and undefeatable.
The song talks about the idea of confidence and strength in the face of adversity, and that the singer of the lyrics sees himself as a figure of power in his world. It's an anthem for those who have been downtrodden, criticized, or betrayed, as it encourages them to embrace their inner strength and take pride in their abilities. The song is written in a manner that is intense and powerful, which represents the feeling of triumph and shows that even in the bleakest of situations, one can find strength within.
Line by Line Meaning
I'm set to paralyze
I have the ability to immobilize my enemies
I'm older so I'm wise
As I have aged, I have gained knowledge and life experience
I have been crucified
I have been judged and punished unfairly
With words personified
Using words, my enemies have created a false version of me
Here I am now, I'm your Savior
I have come to save you and be your leader
There can be only one
I am the only one qualified to be the savior and leader
I'm the master, past and future
I have control over both the past and the future
Now the end has begun
This is the beginning of the end of those who oppose me
I've always stood alone
I have always been independent and not relied on others
Your time got overgrown
Your time of power and influence has ended
Those words shot way too wide
Your insults and attacks missed their intended target
No hate can take my pride
Despite the hate directed towards me, I have not lost my self-respect
There's no reason for such treason
The disloyalty and betrayal of those around me is unjustified
Now your end has begun
Those who have betrayed me will face the consequences of their actions

Best song off that album. Played it to death in 2001. Still stands -- the guitar work is excellent.
@channel5980
There's many awesome songs from this album to choose from, but my favorite out of them, and my favorite one by Halford so far, is "Silent Screams". "Resurrection" is a candidate for the second place.
