REQUIEM (WE WILL REMEMBER)
De nuevo este clásico en el blog, un clásico como banda y como LP, del que el grupo ha sacado un puñado de temas que por derecho propio debería ir a cualquier recopilatorio de Saxon, y que habitualmente son elegidos en los shows en directo, además de los correspondientes a cada gira de cada obra nueva que editan, y es que este grupo lleva ya sacando discos más de cuarenta años, ahí es nada. 23 son los LP's grabados por la banda a fecha de esta reseña, y este "Solid ball of rock" de 1990 hace el décimo. Se trata de un disco criticado por algunos, más en mi opinión por el giro compositivo que las dos anteriores obras de la banda habían tomado, siguiendo la imperante corriente más hard, que el mercado americano imponía a la escena internacional a finales de los 80, y aunque en esta obra "solid ball of rock" retomaba la senda más original de Saxon, y en mi opinión con gran acierto, muchos no quisieron perdonar el "desliz" anterior en el intento de conquista del esquivo, para la banda, mercado americano. Sea como sea, hoy quiero dejar otro de los temas importantes de este "Solid ball of rock" de 1990, en concreto "Requiem (we will remember)" de la que dejo un enlace a youtube.
Somewhere in the night a candle burns for you
The eternal flame the light keeps shining on
Your music is immortal it stood the test of time
You're gone but not forgotten, you walk with us
We will remember
They were born to rock 'n' roll
We will remember
Woah-oh
This song's a celebration of what you gave to us
The legacy you left still marches on
But still they play your music all around the world
Blasting through the airwaves to the stars
We will remember
They were born to rock 'n' roll
We will remember
Woah-oh
From London to Chicago
From the mountains to the sea
The legacy you left will never die
We will remember
They were born to rock 'n' roll
We will remember
Woah-oh
We will remember
They were born to rock 'n' roll
We will remember
Woah-oh
From London to Chicago
From the mountains to the sea
We will remember
They were born to rock 'n' roll
We will remember
Woah-oh
[Repeat to end]
