"'United'" is the fifth track and last single to be released from the album 'British Steel' by heavy metal group Judas Priest. The song was written very much in the same vein as "Take On the World" from 'Killing Machine' ('Hell Bent for Leather' in the U.S.) and meant to be a crowd shout-along. It is the fifth track and final song on the first side on the LP version.
The single, with "Grinder" on the B-side, peaked at number 26 on the UK Singles Chart and spent a total of eight weeks on the chart."[http://www.officialcharts.com/artist/25174/JUDAS-PRIEST/ Judas Priest] ", Official Charts Company. Retrieved 30 April 2015
The crowd noise on the live version was enhanced by dub overlay using family members and friends.
