 Let's go Let‘s go to the Grail Gym!
 Even in the depth of night 
We train so hard, we flex so tight
 We sweat, we strain, we lift and jump 
Tormenting muscles while we pump 
 The blessed halls, so far away 
We cannot stop now, come what may 
To live and fight another day 
Evil Doctor Skull to slay 
 Let's go
 (Oooooooeyyyyyooooo)
 Let‘s go to the Grail Gym

 Let's go
 Let‘s go to the Grail Gym!

Savatage - Hall Of The Mountain King - Canciones Para Una Vida


 

HALL  OF  THE  MOUNTAIN  KING 

Savatage, otra banda clásica, de innegable importancia estos estadounidenses, por su obra en sí, por la época en la que la desarrollan y por la influencia dejada para otras bandas. Nos introducimos con este grupo en los campos del sonido progresivo, con esa base de heavy clásicoFormados en 1977 bajo el nombre de Metropolis USA, de las cenizas de esa banda y tras pasar también por el nombre de Avatar, desde 1983 adoptan el definitivo nombre de Savatage, y para 1987 editaban ya su cuarto LP de estudio, "Hall Of the mountain king", obra de la que hoy quierod ejar en el blog el tema que la da nombre, y del que dejo un enlace a youtube.

 

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mOKoLiOkWWQ 

 

Far away in a land caught between time and space
Where the books of life lay
We fear this castle of stone
The mountain king roams all alone in here
But he's not the only one
Lost inside, forever hidden from the sun

Madness reigns
In the Hall of the Mountain King, oh yeah

His deep dark eyes keep watch on his kingdom
And the mysteries that sleeps safe inside
His hall, his towers of stone
Shall not be overthrown for eternity
It is guarded by the king
Insanity and the power that it brings

Madness reigns
In the Hall of the Mountain King, oh yeah
In the Hall of the Mountain King, oh yeah...

Come with me, stay close by my side
As the darkness of night closes in
Don't fear in the thunder it roars
When the Mountain King calls all his children home
To where I hid him we must run
Refuge here, for those forever on the run

Madness reigns, my friends...
In the Hall of the Mountain King, oh yeah
In the Hall of the Mountain King, oh yeah...

Burning Witches - Inquisition - Canciones Para Una Vida

 


INQUISITION 

El 22 de agosto saldrá a la venta de forma oficial en nuevo trabajo de las suizas Burning Witches, el que será su sexto LP de estudio desde que se formasen en 2015 volviendo a mostrar que son una propuesta musical más allá de su reclamo como banda de "chicas monas", algo que sin un argumento musical serio sería imposible de sostener. Su tercer adelanto de la obra lleva por título el de esta y de ella dejo hoy en el blog un enlace a youtube,

 

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p2C5FDpKO-g 

 

[Verse 1]
The ones you trust
Will give you up
In this crusade
To purge the human race

[Pre-Chorus]
Betraying whoever might save your skin
Just being alive becomes a mortal sin

[Chorus]
Raise the banner higher
Erase all the liars
Heresy will make way for the holy inquisition
Nothing can defy them
Atone or surely die
Burned to dust
There is no resurrection for you and your spawn

[Post-Chorus]
Inquisition, inquisition, inquisition
For the holy inquisition

[Verse 2]
Given up kin

Nothing sacred is safe for the holy inquisition
Nothing can defy them
For young and old alike
Your broken bodies won't be resurrected
When the return dawns

Inquisition, inquisition, inquisition
For the holy inquisition

Gary Moore - Lonely Nights - Canciones Para Una Vida



LONELY  NIGHTS 

Otra figura imponente de la guitarra, uno de esos puristas, que flirteo con varios géneros, incluyendo su parte final más orientada al blues, pero con un inicio de carrera más que recomendable con ese sonido hard 'n heavy incluso y ese enorme gusto compositivo, es el irlandés Gary Moore. En una de esas cuestiones peculiares, graba su disco "Dirty Fingers" en 1980 para terminar publicándolo de forma oficial en Japón en 1983 y en Inglaterra y a nivel global en 1984, será su tercera obra de estudio en pleno sonido inicial de su carrera, un disco del que quiero dejar en el blog hoy una de sus canciones, "Lonely nights" de la que dejo un enlace a youtube.

 

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QqsSx5HUixQ 

 

I don't know what's wrong with youBaby, baby, what you tryin' to doWell, I gave you my loveBut that wasn't good enough for you
I thought we had a love so strongWell baby, baby, how you proved me wrongWell, I'm so confusedI don't know what I'm supposed to do
And it's just another lonely night (lonely night)I'm all by myselfIt's just another lonely night (lonely night)You're with someone else, when you should be with me
Life was so easy when our love was newBut times have changed, and I'm so blueWell, you gave me your loveThen you turned around and said we're through
I crawled for miles on my hands and kneesJust to hear you whisper "Baby, please"I need you so badI'd do anything to be with you
But it's just another lonely night (lonely night)I'm all by myselfIt's just another lonely night (lonely night)You're with someone else
Oh, just another lonely nightOh, just another lonely nightOh, just another lonely nightOh, just another lonely night
And it's just another lonely nightI'm all by myselfIt's just another lonely nightYou're with someone else
It's just another lonely night (lonely night)I'm all by myselfIt's just another lonely night (lonely night)You're with someone else
Just another lonely night (lonely night)All by myselfJust another lonely night (lonely night)You're with someone else

Scanner - Terrion - Canciones Para Una Vida


 

TERRION 

De vuelta hoy  a uno de esos discos que le acompañan a uno desde siempre y que a pesar de haber disfrutado desde el comienzo como lo que es, un auténtico discazo, siempre terminas por sorprenderte de la cantidad de gente que no conoce a la banda, evidentemente en el momento en que sacaron la obra, (1988) y en que se creó el grupo, (1986), la escena estaba en plena efervescencia, y no solo, también en pleno cambio, evolución, y bandas tardías en lo suyo, como los alemanes Scanner y su heavy speedico y melódico, llegaban un pelín tarde para aumentar su cupo de seguidores cuando la moda era ya engancharse a cuestiones más extremas como el thrash o a sonidos comerciales del otro lado del charco como el hard rock o los otros incipientes estilos y subgéneros, pero sea como fuere, la banda Scanner creo que siempre mereció más credito, mayor atención general, y la prueba es su debut "Hypertrace" que resulta ser una más que digna obra de sonido clásico acelerado que debería haberles abierto muchas más puertas de lo que lo hizo. Dejo hoy en el blog otro de sus temas, "Terrion" en este caso, del que dejo un enlace a youtube.

 

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7NvFUNKvrws 

 

I see a time
A time without hatred and riots
Sunrising cities where people can live without fear
This is why we have come right from the stars
Searching for answers that show, show the way
To stay alive
Listen, now we make you see
How you can survive

So we told
It's a place called Terrion
In a time of love and freedom
Such a place that we call Terrion
Can be real when mission is done

There's a price for the world that we told
You must climb over the wall of hate
It is so hard to keep your anger down
Answer yourselves it will show, show the way
To stay alive
Listen so that you can see
How you will survive

It takes years for this world to unfold
You've gotta reach for the stars shining bright
Stand aside and lead the way
We must be sure that you find, find a way
To stay alive
Tell it so that we can hear
How you will survive

Primal Fear - The Hunter - Canciones Para Una Vida



THE  HUNTER 

Siguen desgranandose temas de lo que será el décimo quinto album de estudio de los alemanes Primal Fear, una banda que ha seguido una senda clara, siempre homogénea, con ese referente clásico de heavy power metal, y que parece que no será esta obra la que rompa con el patrón compositivo de la banda, pero ya se sabe, si algo funciona es mejor no tocarlo, y tras estas casi tres décadas de grupo en activo al menos a la banda se le debe credibilidad y buen hacer. Este nuevo single de adelanto lleva por título "The Hunter" y de él dejo en el blog un enlace a youtube.

 

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yB34xHElQ80 

 

Through the labyrinth of fear, you’re lost and alone
A primal force unleashed a river of blood

This is the part
When you will run for your life
And every step you take
Leads closer to my knife

Blood stains the ground
The hunt never ends

In the darkness, i will come for you
A beast is unleashed i am the hunter
Run for your life let the game begin
I will tear you apart i am the hunter

My blade is sharp, my senses keen, i’ll keep control
No mercy given, fierce and mean

The blood i spill, the life i rend
My hunt goes on
It never ends for i’m the hunter
On and on

Where i strike
The winds will moan

In the darkness, i will come for you
A beast is unleashed i am the hunter
Run for your life let the game begin
I will tear you apart i am the hunter

Blood stains the ground
The hunt never ends
Where i strike
The winds will moan

In the darkness, i will come for you
A beast is unleashed i am the hunter
Run for your life let the game begin
I will tear you apart i am the hunter

In the darkness, i will come for you
A beast is unleashed i am the hunter
Run for your life let the game begin
Iwill tear you apart i am the hunter

Vicious Rumors - Lady Took A Chance - Canciones Para Una Vida

 


LADY  TOOK  A  CHANCE 

Cuando una banda acierta, acierta, y eso precisamente hicieron los estadounidenses Vicious Rumors en 1988 a través de su segundo LP de estudio "Digital Dictator" todo un clásico actualmente, uno de esos discos sin descartes, una obra que les puso en el mapa y les elevaría más adelante hacia las alturas metálicas, una obra mucho más que recomendable, fundamental diría yo para hacerse una idea general del todo llamado Heavy Metal. En este año, en que la banda editará en agosto un nuevo LP "The Devil's Asylum" que será su décimo cuarto LP de estudio, es siempre buen momento para repasar su discografía, máxime con obras de la talla de este "Digital Dictator" del que dejo hoy en el blog su canción "Lady Took A Chance" de la que dejo un enlace a youtube.

 

  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GmqBBHlC1bQ 

 

Alright!

Oh don't play with fire again!
The pain becomes my only friend!
You are seeing now
The circle growing
Back to the point of souls in mourning

Take a chance when you play the game
Roll the dice cause you love to win
Pick a number and back on the line
Checking the shorts for a holiday plan
Just another strong attack
She can do it again
Yeah!

Well the lady-
took a chance
But there's no guarantees
In romance!
Although you
May respect her
Your love
Will not protect her!

Find the colors black and blue
Changes that you put me through
Love, hate all them got the same
The time has come to make my play

Take a chance when you play the game
Roll the dice cause you love to win
Pick a number and back on the line
Shark skin jacket with a dorsal fin attack
You ain't never goin' in
And you ain't ever coming back with her!

Well the lady-
took a chance
But there's no guarantees
In romance!
Although you
May respect her
Your love
Will not protect her!

Well the lady-
took a chance
And she LOST...

Lady took a chance
She really took a chance
Lady took a chance
She really took a chance
You know!...
She will-

Lady took a chance
She really lost the fight
Scratch a little harder
Just to please her appetite
For you!...
and I...

Lady took a chance
She really took a chance
It all slipped away
In a voodoo dance
Tonight!
Oh woah oh
Woah oh, yeah!

Ice cold candy with a strawberry twist
You can eat it on the run
Or you rub it on a stick tonight!

Well the lady-
took a chance
But there's no guarantees
In romance!
Although you
May respect her
Your love
Will not protect her!

Fireforce - The Battle Of Ramadi - Canciones Para Una Vida



THE  BATTLE  OF  RAMADI 

Los belgas Fireforce llevan ya cuatro años de silencio desde su último LP de estudio, y en este 2025 han dado señales de vida compositiva a través del single "The battle of Ramadi". La trayectoria de la banda desde su formación en 2008 habla de un disco cada tres años más o menos, lo que da otra pista de que el grupo pueda en breve anunciar lo que sería su quinto LP de estudio, veremos, de momento nos dejan el citado tema "the battle of Ramadi" del que dejo hoy un enlace a youtube.

 

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=azjAyuAbgJE 

 

This city is lost in chaos
Law and order nonexistent.
The bitter fight, the bitter loss
This battle is hard and persistent.

Cease, clear, hold and build.
The will to die, the will to kill.
Battalions of muscles and of blood
Leave the savages in the sand - and rot!

The enemy hides in the shadows
Not brave enough to fight
Man to man!
This calls for something different
Bravery beyond
Hand on hand!

The sound of the gunfire
Fills the air.
Rising mayhem, rising fear.
Into the lungs of hell.
Still, this is where
We want to be, at the battle of Ramadi.

Sitting on the bloody wall
Protecting our right to think.
Walking through the bloody hall
Your freedom's gone, if you blink.

The enemy hides in the shadows
Not brave enough to fight
Man to man!
This calls for something different
Bravery beyond
Hand on hand!

The sound of the gunfire
Fills the air.
Rising mayhem, rising fear.
Into the lungs of hell.
Still, this is where
We want to be, at the battle of Ramadi.

Warkings - Kings Of Ragnarok - Canciones Para Una Vida



KINGS  OF  RAGNAROK 

Muy poquito queda ya para la publicación oficial del nuevo trabajo de estudio de Warkings, el proyecto internacional ya asentado y por méritos propios y constancia considerado absolutamente una banda como tal. "Armageddon" será ya su quinta obra de estudio y verá la luz de forma oficial el 4 de julio, y en estos días nos han dejado su último adelanto, "kings of Ragnarok" del que dejo un enlace a youtube.

 

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ROZLvcQvhsk 

 

(Whoa, oh-oh
Oh-oh, oh-oh)
Kings of Ragnarök

Blood for blood
An eye for an eye
Our time has come
Battles calling

Tit for tat
This is the end of gods
This world is in flames
Battles calling

Hold your tears for victory
And darkness will fade like your fear

Rise against and choose your fight
Can you feel the fire's blazing?
Warriors of the storm
We bring thunder, we unite
Be a hero, fight forever
Warriors of the storm
Kings of Ragnarök

Side by side, here we come ashore
Together we stand
Battles calling
North to South, it's a tale untold
Doomsday has come
Battles calling

Hold your tears (hold you tears) for victory (victory)
And darkness will fade like your fear

Rise against and choose your fight
Can you feel the fire's blazing?
Warriors of the storm
We bring thunder, we unite
Be a hero, fight forever
Warriors of the storm
Kings of Ragnarök

In the heart of battle, we settle the score
Can you hear the wings of the shadow ravens soar?

Rise against and choose your fight
Can you feel the fire's blazing?
Warriors of the storm
We bring thunder, we unite
Be a hero, fight forever
Warriors of the storm

(Whoa-oh-oh, oh, oh, oh-oh)
Be a hero, fight forever
Warriors of the storm
Kings of Ragnarök

Metallica - The Four Horsemen - Canciones Para Una Vida

 


THE  FOUR  HORSEMEN

Y ya que hoy vamos de clásicos, vamos con otro más, como disco, banda y canción, los archiconocidos a nivel planetario Metallica, como han cambiado estos chicos, que pasada escuchar este su debut, un tema que nos ha acompañado a muchos a lo largo de nuestra vida y que sin duda es una de sus mejores obras en su conjunto, corria el año 1983 y estos también abrían camino en lo suyo, y con este discazo en concreto más si cabe, por la época y por las composiciones sin descartes, que vamos a decir a estas alturas de la banda y de la obra, así que sin más dejo en el blog el temazo "The Four horsemen" del que dejo un enlace a youtube.

 

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-zKOhVSERS8 

 

By last breath of the fourth winds blow, better raise your ears
The sound of hooves knocks at your door
Lock up your wife and children now, it’s time to wield the blade
For now you’ve got some company

The Horsemen are drawing nearer
On leather steeds they ride
They’ve come to take your life

On through the dead of night
With the four Horsemen ride
Or choose your fate and die

Oh ye-yeah!


You’ve been dying since the day you were born, you know it’s all been planned
The quartet of deliverance rides
A sinner once a sinner twice, no need for confession now
Cause now you’ve got the fight of your life

The Horsemen are drawing nearer
On leather steeds they ride
They’ve come to take your life

On through the dead of night
With the four Horsemen ride
Or choose your fate and die

Oh ye-yeah!


Time! Has taken its toll on you, the lines that crack your face
Famine! Your body it has torn through, withered in every place
Pestilence! For what you had to endure and what you have put others through
Death! Deliverance for you for sure, now there’s nothing you can do

Gather round young warriors now, saddle up your steeds
Killing scores with demon swords
Now is the death of doers of wrong, swing the judgement hammer down
Safely inside armor, blood, guts and sweat

The Horsemen are drawing nearer
On leather steeds they ride
They’ve come to take your life

On through the dead of night
With the four Horsemen ride
Or choose your fate and die

Oh ye-yeah!

Manilla Road - The Riddle Master - Canciones Para Una Vida



THE  RIDDLE  MASTER 

Otra banda clásica de nuevo en el blog, los estadounidenses Manilla Road, desde los más profundos terrenos underground en sus comienzos, con el inicio de la década de los ochenta, abriendo tendencia, pero con poco o nulo reconocimiento en su momento, se trataba de un sonido muy novedoso para la época, ese aspecto épico creado con guitarra, sin adorno alguno, más allá de las narraciones, es esencia de heavy metal clásico, y tan solo el tiempo les está colocando en el importante puesto que merecen dentro de la historia del heavy metal. Activos hasta 2028 en que su cantante y guitarrista Mark Shelton muere, la banda publica 18 LP's de estudio, otro dato a tener muy en cuenta, y de su material ochentero quiero rescatar hoy el disco "Crystal Logic" de 1983, tercer LP de su discografía y del que dejo hoy en el blog su canción "The riddle master", cocinado a fuego medio pero con fuerza y todo el sabor metálico de la banda, una canción de la que dejo un enlace a youtube.

 

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9KK8DojxnW4 

 

What lies in the dungeons
Of Holy men's fears
For what would kings cower
And men drown in tears
What brings death and pleasure
Growth and decay
What makes life worth living
Who's the master today

That's how the note read
Slipped under my door
The reason I know not
I have to know more
A poem to ponder
A challenge this night
The Riddle Master
Wants to master my mind

Oh no no no, oh no no no

Strange I was chosen
The fool divine
To battle the master
Of riddle and rhyme
Another mountain
For me to climb
I must find the answer
Before I run out of time

I have no solution
My mind blank with fear
The riddle has slain me
The master is near
Another demon
Walking the Earth
An Angel of darkness
Lucifer

Oh no no no, oh no no no

I can't believe it's true
I feel so damn confused
All I know is I must carry on and on and on

With blazing steel I'll fight
The evil in the night
Daughter of hell I shall not lose, not to you

Then it came to me
Just like a waking dream
The answer had to be Reality

The master does not laugh
Defeated by a man
Leviathan be damned, yea, yea, yea

Battle Beast - Steelbound - Canciones Para Una Vida


 

STEELBOUND 

Nuevo single de los finlandeses Battle Beast que aumenta mucho la sospecha de una nueva obra de estudio de la que aún yo no tengo noticia, mirando su trayectoria y costumbres y viendo que su anterior disco de estudio fue en 2022 desde luego ya tocaría que sacasen una obra nueva, por el momento este nuevo single lleva por título "Steelbound" con todas las características propias del sonido de la banda y del citado single dejo hoy en el blog un enlace a youtube.

 

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-SmACklhwYQ 

 

Unfold it, behold it, break the mold – Here we go!

Pandora was seeking the truth untold
Red Hood chose her path, so the story goes
but they got blamed for being bold
That’s not right

Always too much and never enough
Too quiet too loud too soft or too tough
They tell the rules for being me

Too weak, too strong, and probably wrong
Like fading light, on the edge of night
When shadows grow and hellhounds howl, so loud

I'm steelbound
Born of fire lighting up the dawn
The way I shine
Is mine to decide
I'm blazing through the skies

I’m steelbound
My voice will resound
It’s my middle name
Forged in flames
No one can tame my soul

We are the spirit they couldn't burn
Through the layers of time, we've had to learn
to rise above and fight for harmony

Stone by stone, we build the sky
Together we're strong in thunder's cry
The choir of whispers grows into a symphony

We are the voice that shatters the silence
We are the light that bends the night
Side by side through the chaos we’ll shine, so bright

I'm steelbound
Born of fire lighting up the dawn
The way I shine
Is mine to decide
I'm blazing through the skies

I’m steelbound
My voice will resound
It’s my middle name
Forged in flames
No one can tame my soul

“Laugh at my joke and give me a smile”
I’m not here for your ego or to please your eye!
“Don’t even try, you won’t make it right”
It’s my nine-to-five, don’t act so surprised!
“That book is too complicated; you wouldn’t get it”
Are you sure? Cause I’m the one who wrote it!

I’m sick of your poison,
and I’m sick of shrinking myself!

It must hurt to know you didn't earn that fame
when you steal our work and erase our names
How can you even think it's your privilege?
In what universe does that make any sense?

I’m steelbound
Lighting up the dark

Unfold it, behold it, break the mold – Go!

I'm steelbound
Born of fire lighting up the dawn
The way I shine
Is mine to decide
I'm blazing through the skies

I’m steelbound
My voice will resound
It’s my middle name
Forged in flames
No one can tame my soul

I’m steelbound

Hammer King - Make Metal Royal Again - Canciones Para Una Vida



MAKE  METAL ROYAL AGAIN 

Hammer King, cada vez que hablo de esta banda alemana me asalta el mismo concepto, la misma sensación, y cada vez la conclusión que saco es más confirmada, un grupo de los que a primera vista, en sus comienzos, hubiera sido de esas bandas que se diluyesen en el anonimato, no por no hacerlo bien, más por una propuesta compositiva demasiado usada, que realmente nada nuevo aporta y que tampoco es que haya adquirido un rol de banda reconocible al instante, sin embargo, con esa sensación de persistencia su carrera va cogiendo fondo, no obstante su discografía la componen ya siete albumes de estudio si incluimos este "make metal royal again" que verá la luz de forma oficial el próximo mes de agosto, desde 2015 en que se forma el grupo. De el nuevo disco dejo hoy en el blog el tema que le dará nombre y del que dejo un enlace a youtube.

 

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qLBTOP3JKic 

 

Hey, I have come, 
I have come to invite you
 As I am the bringer of all royalty
 Blind, I have come to ignite you 
Come and see, 
I'm the master of eternity
 
 One, I fought two 
I fought three and I fought four
 I fought 500 wars 
And I'm coming back for more 
 
 Hey master, my saviour 
I'm coming back to tame you
 We're heroes and we'll 
Make Metal Royal Again 
Hey master, my saviour 
I'm coming back to tame you 
We're making history 
Make Metal Royal Again 
 I have come,
 I have come to enrich you
 night after night 
The blood on the gold just has dried
 Is the enniyuddy out
 there upon the throne?
 Raise your hands and your voices,
 it's One, it is two
 It is three and it is four
 I fought 500 wars 
And I'm coming back for more
 Hey master, my saviour
 I'm coming back to tame you
 We're heroes and we'll 
Make Metal Royal Again
 Hey master, my saviour
 I'm coming back to tame you
 We're making history 
Make Metal Royal Again 
 Hey master, my saviour 
I'm coming back to tame you 
We're heroes and we'll
 Make Metal Royal Again 
Hey master, my saviour
 I'm coming back to tame you
 We're making history
 Make Metal Royal Again

Pink Cream 69 - Still Alive - Canciones Para Una Vida



STILL  ALIVE 

Los alemanes Pink Cream 69 han sido uno de esos grupos cuya importancia estoy seguro que ira aumentando con el paso de los años, máxime ahora tras su separación definitiva el pasado año 2023, una banda importante por lo sonoro, con obras magníficas, doce LP's de estudio que siempre se movieron entre el hard rock y el heavy power metal, con una marcada identidad respaldada por la enorme calidad del grupo en su conjunto como de los músicos por separado, superando salidas de miembros carismáticos y sabiendo reinventarse para consolidar una carrera de casi treinta años. En el apartado de los nombres propios, la primera parte de su carrera muestra tres obras con Andi Deris en un momento pletórico, que evidencia el por que de su posterior fichaje por Helloween. Hoy quiero dejar en el blog una de las canciones de su tercer LP, el descomunal "Games people play" de 1993, recomendable enterito, pero del que dejo hoy el tema "Still alive" del que dejo un enlace a youtube.

intoxication, running through this veins
he feels cold, is he insane?
deep in his brain the knows it all
but can't explain

running on empty, almost out of bread
giving all that he's got, taking all he can get
feels the end is near as the foreign dreamlands disappear

now he's back again, blind with open eyes
still alive, still alive
leaving once again, can he still deny
he's still alive, still alive

wish you could see him as he slowly dies
to the shame and pain
we close our eyes and pass by
but the end is near
and we know it's his world that we fear

now he's back again, blind with open eyes
still alive, still alive
leaving once again, can he still deny
he's still alive, still alive

see how we got through the stages
soon we'll be turning the pages
still alive, still alive
need is a hurting desire
life is a walk through the fire
still alive, still alive

intoxication, running through his veins

Gary Moore - Blood Of Emeralds - Canciones Para Una Vida



BLOOD  OF  EMERALDS 

Vamos hoy con un poco de repaso clásico a través de la figura de enorme guitarrista y cantante Gary Moore, quien comenzó su carrera musical en solitario a finales de los setenta 1977, y que para 1989 editaría ya su séptimo LP de estudio, este "After the war" del que hoy quiero dejar una de sus canciones. Se trata de la última obra del músico desde una perspectiva más hard heavy, ya que a partir de este album el espíritu Blues llenaría sus obras muy claramente dejando a trás la primera etapa de su carrera más rockera. Este album tiene auténticos temazos que son un clásico de su sonido, y una de las que más me gustan es "Blood of emeralds" de la que dejo hoy un enlace a youtube,

I was born up on the North side, where the Lagan River flows. When I came across the border, I was following my nose. Dublin city '69, there could have been no better place, there was no better time. Through the thunder and the rain, the deepest blood of emeralds was running through my veins. Blood of emeralds. I was down and out on Skid Row, but I held on to my pride. The darkest son of Ireland, he was standin' by my side. We would sail the stormy seas. Never looking back, we were afraid of what we'd see. Through the thunder and the rain, the deepest blood of emeralds was running through our veins. Some of us will win and some of us will lose, the strong will survive. Some of us will fall, some of us won't get out of here alive. Blood of emeralds. Blood of emeralds. I was angry, I was sad, just thinking about the times we had. I felt so lost and lonely too, what could I say, what could I do? And after all, the time goes by. No one knows the reasons why. You lived each day like there was no tomorrow. You spent those years living on time you borrowed. And in your eyes, all I could see was sorrow. Some of us will win, some of us will lose, the strong will survive. Some of us will fall, some of us won't get out of here alive. Blood of emeralds. Blood of emeralds. Blood of emeralds. (Blood of emeralds.) The deepest blood of emeralds. Blood of emeralds. The deepest blood of emeralds. The deepest, deepest blood of emeralds.
