Początkowy, lecz już wyraźnie ukształtowany heavy metal, można zaobserwować w muzyce grup Led Zeppelin i Black Sabbath. Jeśli chodzi o korzenie, to jedni upatrują prototypu utworu heavymetalowego w piosence The Beatles "Helter-Skelter" (z Białego Albumu) lub The Kinks "You Really Got Me", inni zaś za pierwsze utwory protoheavymetalowe uznają przeboje grupy The Dave Clark Five, szczególnie "Any Way You Want It" i "Glad All Over" z 1964 roku. Zresztą nurt zapoczątkowany przez The Dave Clark Five nazywa się heavy drum albo heavy bass, od ciężkiego, hałaśliwego i agresywnego brzmienia.

Pam Tillis - Popular Girl
Her name pops up in every conversation
Got a way of firin' up the boy's imagination
Oh yeah, she's popular girl
She's a popular girl

She's obscene in all the right places
Not good at names but she don't forget the faces
Oh yeah, she's a popular girl

She's so cool
She's so mod
Everybody wants her bod
Oh yeah, she's a popular girl, she's a popular girl

She's a big girl now
She's in the eighth grade
Walkin' down the hall she's always on parade
Oh yeah, she's a popular girl, she's a popular girl
She's this year's darlin'
She's don't know she's just another falling star
So on it goes for a popular girl

She's so cool
She's so mod
Everybody wants her bod
She's this year's darlin'
She's don't know she's just another falling star
So on it goes for a popular girl
She's a popular girl
She's a popular girl, popular girl

Today the neighborhood, tomorrow the world
She's a popular girl, popular girl Leśmian Bolesław wiersze Sztaudynger Jan wiersze Rilke Rainer Maria wiersze Różewicz Tadeusz wiersze Szymborska Wisława wiersze
