Iron Maiden - The Number Of The Beast - Canciones Para Una Vida

THE  NUMBER  OF  THE  BEAST 

Vamos de nuevo con un disco icónico, de esos que simplemente tienen el beneplácito de toda la comunidad metálica, Iron Maiden The Number Of The Beast, primera obra de los británicos con Dickinson a la voz y sin duda punto definitivo de explosión de la banda a nivel internacional como mito en vida, estatus que gracias a obras como esta hoy en día poseen. Y que mejor canción para hoy que la que da nombre a la obra, "The number of the beast", indiscutiblemente considerado como uno de esos temas imprescindibles de la historia del heavy metal, y no por ser una de esas canciones más machacadas por todos deja de ser mejor o más efectiva, creo que es algo general que a pesar de ello cuando la escuchas algo se te sigue encendiendo por dentro, canción fundamental de la que dejo hoy en el blog un enlace a youtube.

"Woe to you, oh Earth and Sea For the Devil sends the beast with wrath because he knows the time is short... Let him who hath understanding reckon the number of the beast for it is a human number Its number is six hundred and sixty six" I left alone, my mind was blank, I needed time to think to get the memories from my mind What did I see? Can I believe that what I saw that night was real and not just fantasy? Just what I saw in my old dreams were they reflections of my warped mind staring back at me 'Cause in my dreams, it's always there, the evil face that twists my mind and brings me to despair, yeah... Night was black, was no use holding back 'Cause I just had to see, was someone watching me? In the mist, dark figures move and twist Was all this for real or just some kind of Hell? 666, the number of the beast Hell and fire was spawned to be released Torches blazed and sacred chants were praised As they start to cry, hands held to the sky In the night, the fires are burning bright The ritual has begun, Satan's work is done 666, the number of the beast Sacrifice is going on tonight This can't go on, I must inform the law Can this still be real, or just some crazy dream? But I feel drawn towards the chanting hordes Seem to mesmerize, can't avoid their eyes 666, the number of the beast 666, the one for you and me I'm coming back, I will return And I'll possess your body and I'll make you burn I have the fire, I have the force I have the power to make my evil take its course
