Canciones para una vida - Saxon - 747 (Strangers In The Night)


 

747 (STRANGERS  IN THE  NIGHT)

Ya desde el inicio, esta gran banda británica demostraba a todo aquel que le quisiera escuchar que tenían pegada. gancho e ilusión para desarrollar una larga carrera, pero desde luego se han convertido en una de las más prolíficas bandas en lo que a discos editados se refiere, y contando camino ya de la quinta década en activo. 1980 fue el año en que la banda lanzó su segundo y tercer albumes de estudio, el segundo "Wheels of steel" es hoy mi foco de atención para dejar en el blog otro de sus temas clásicos, "747 (strangers in the night)", del que dejo hoy un enlace a youtube.

We've got a 747 coming down in the night
There's no power, there's no runway lights
Radio operator try to get a message through
Tell the flight deck New York has no lights
There's no power what do we do?
747 coming down in the night
Try to get a message through

We were strangers in the night
Both on separate flights
Strangers in the night
Going nowhere

This is Scandinavian one-o-one
Flight from Hawaii coming out of the sun
Kennedy should be in sight
We can't see a thing here in the night
Navigator says we're on the flight path
There's no radio, no sign of life
This is Scandinavian one-o-one
For God's sake, get the ground lights on, because

We were strangers in the night
Both on separate flights
Strangers in the night
Going nowhere

There's a 747 going into the night
There's no power, they don't know why
They've no fuel, they've got to land soon
They can't land by the light of the moon
They're overshooting, there's no guiding lights
Set a course into the night
Scandinavian one-o-one
For God's sake get your ground lights on

We were strangers in the night
Both on separate flights
Strangers in the night
Going nowhere
