BEYOND THE BLACK HOLE
Quinto larga
duración de los chicos de Kai Hansen, del año 1997, este "Somewhere out
in space" es todo un discazo. Para esta obra hubo ciertos cambios en la
banda, así pasa a formar parte de ella Henjo Richter, en el puesto de
guitarrista, quien permanece hasta hoy en día en ella y Dan Zimmermann, a
la batería, que en ella estuvo hasta 2012. Como dato curioso,
encontramos una canción en el disco "Watcher in the sky", escrita para
"Iron Savior", a medias entre Kai Hansen y Piet Sielk, (alma mater de
esa banda), y para el que conozca un poco la historia del heavy sabrá
que Sielk fue integrante de los incipientes "Helloween", allá por los
comienzos de los 80, motivo por el que Hansen Y Sielk mantienen tan
buena relación. El dato curioso al que me refería es que esa canción
aparece en este disco de Gamma Ray así como en el primer LP de Iron
Savior, rara demostración de amistad "inter-bandas", que habla de esa
amistad que une a ambos músicos alemanes. Este tema aparece aquí con las
voces adicionales de Sielk y a la batería nada menos que Thomen Stauch,
Ex de Blind Guardian. Además, el tema "No
Stranger (Another Day In Life)", fue también compuesto para otro ex
miembro de los Helloween iniciales, para el disco en solitario de
Michael kiske, contribución del genial guitarrista para Kiske que este,
tan gran vocalista como incompresiblemente "rancio y moñas" rechazó,
alegando que era "demasiado heavy", por lo que Hansen decidió grabarlo
para este disco "Somewhere out in space". Volviendo al disco, es muy
completo y con grandes canciones, alguna de las cuales ya he dejado en el blog y hoy quiero hacerlo con este "Beyond the black hole", de la que dejo un enlace a youtube.
I have come from so far away
From the sunlight of my home
And I have seen it's the only way
Now my sun is dead and gone
I raise my head in silent anger
Seems there is no place for me
The only way out is to go
Where no one's gone before
Fly - Beyond the gates of space and time
Another universe is mine
And I can't wait until tomorrow
Ride - There's a call from deep within
No I won't return again
`Cause I will dive into the black hole
Don't wait for me, 'cause I won't come back
Oh don't wait for me, no I won't come back
Oh don't wait for me, no I won't come back
Oh, oh, oh ...
Thunder and lightning and fire
Are guiding the trip of my life
Insatiable burning desire
As into the unknown I dive
I raise my head in silent anger
Seems there is no place for me
The only way out is to go
Where no one's gone before
Fly - Beyond the gates of space and time
Another universe is mine
And I can't wait until tomorrow
Ride - There is a call from deep within
I know I won't return again
`Cause I will dive into the black hole
Don't wait for me, 'cause I won't come back
Oh don't wait for me, no I won't come back
Oh don't wait for me, no I won't come back
Oh, oh, oh, don't wait
There was a trigger, for my decision
It's right behind my eyes
Into the darkness of my vision
I let my spirit rise
I wanna see the black hole, into the dark
I wanna dive into the black hole, down into the dark
Into the black hole, into the dark
Into the spiral, Into the dark, the dark, the dark
If there's a possible chance for something that can be
Called future behind the spiral
The only way to find out, is to leave the final frontier
To eternity and fly
I will fly - Beyond the gates of space and time
I leave the universe behind
And I can't wait until tomorrow
Fly - Beyond the gates of space and time
I know the universe is mine
`Cause I will dive into the black hole
Ride - And there's a call from deep within
I know I won't return again
`Cause I will dive into the black hole
Don't wait for me, 'cause I won't come back
Oh don't wait for me, no I won't come back
Oh don't wait for me, no I won't come back
Oh, oh, oh, don't wait
