You've realized you're gettin' old and no one seems to care


Και ναι...
ακόμα ένας αγαπημένος μου δίσκος κυκλοφόρησε Μάρτιο...

Συγκεκριμένα σαν σήμερα το 1976 οι Judas Priest "βγάλανε" το υπέροχο "Sad Wings Of Destiny"

Τι να πει κανείς για τον δίσκο αυτό;

Η παραγωγή, τα τραγούδια, οι στίχοι, η ατμόσφαιρα, η φωνή οι κιθάρες, το εξώφυλλο...

Όλα ήταν υπέροχα...

Δεν υπάρχουν συνταρακτικές ιστορίες κατα την δημιουργία του δίσκου, οπότε πάμε κατευθείαν στο ψητό...

Το track list είναι το εξής:

1. Prelude (Instrumental)
2. Tyrant
3. Genocide
4. Epitaph
5. Island of Domination
6. Victim Of Changes
7. The Ripper
8. Dreamer Deceiver
9. Deceiver

Οι Judas Priest σε αυτόν τον δίσκο ήταν οι Rob Halford (φωνή -φωνάρα) K.K. Downing (κιθάρα), Glen Tipton (κιθάρα, πιάνο), Ian Hill (μπάσο) και Alan Moore (τύμπανα)

Αγαπημένα μου είναι... ΟΛΑ -εκτός του epitaph και Island of Domination-

Για τους μη μυημένους ας ακούσουν το Dream Deceiver...

οι υπόλοιποι... ξέρετε...






Behold 'tis I the commander
Whose grip controls you all
Resist me not, surrender
I'll no compassion call

(Tyrant) Capture of humanity
(Tyrant) Conqueror of all
(Tyrant) Hideous destructor
(Tyrant) Every man shall fall

Your very lives are held within my fingers
I snap them and you cower down in fear
You spineless things who belly down to slither
To the end of the world you follow to be near

Mourn for us oppressed in fear
Chained and shackled we are bound
Freedom choked in dread we live
Since Tyrant was enthroned

I listen not to sympathy
Whilst ruler of this land
Withdraw your feeble aches and moans
Or suffer smite from this my hand

My legions faithful unto death
I'll summon to my court
And as you perish each of you
Shall scream as you are sought



Mercenary batalions
Are poised to strike us down
Terminations conquest
Upon us now full grown

Save me, my heart's open wide
Help me, no question of pride
Save me, my people have died
Total genocide

Devastation hungers
She waits to leap to earth
Imminent liquidation
Before the grand rebirth

Sin after sin I have endured
Yet the wounds I bear are the wounds of love

Frantic mindless zombies
Grab at fleeting time
Lost in cold perplexion
Waiting for the sign

Generations tremble
Clinging face to face
Helpless situation
To end the perfect race

Flashing senseless sabers
Cut us to the ground
Eager for the life blood
Of all who can be found

Slice to the left, slice to the right
None to retaliate, none will fight
Chopping at the hearts, snuffing out the lives
This race departs, no one will survive
Heads to the feet, feet to the air
Souls in the soil, heavy in despair
End of all ends, body into dust
To greet death friends, extinction is a must




Whiskey woman don't you know that you are drivin' me insane
The liquor you give stems your will to live and gets right to my brain
Don't you know you're driving me insane
You're tryin' to find your way through life
You're tryin' to get some new direction
Another woman got her man
She won't find no new connection

Takes another drink or two, things look better when she's through

Takes another look around, you're not goin' anywhere
You've realized you're gettin' old and no one seems to care
You're tryin' to find your way again
You're tryin' to find some new...
Another woman's got her man
But she won't find a new...

You 'bin foolin' with some hot guy
I want to know why is it why
Get up get out you know you really blew it
I've had enough, I've had enough, good God pluck me

Once she was wonderful
Once she was fine
Once she was beautiful
Once she was mine...she was mine

Now change has come over her body, she doesn't see me anymore
Now change has come over her body, she doesn't see me anymore

Changes, changes, changes, changes
Victim of changes



You're in for surprise
You're in for a shock
In London town streets
When there's darkness and fog
When you least expect me
And you turn your back
I'll attack

I smile when I'm sneaking
Through shadows by the wall
I laugh when I'm creeping
But you won't hear me at all

All hear my warning
Never turn your back
On the ripper

You'll soon shake with fear
Never knowing if I'm near
I'm sly and I'm shameless
Nocturnal and nameless
Except for "The Ripper"
Or if you like "Jack The Knife"

Any back alley street
Is where we'll probably meet
Underneath a gas lamp
Where the air's cold and damp
I'm a nasty surprise
I'm a devil in disguise
I'm a footstep at night
I'm a scream of the fright

All hear my warning
Never turn your back
On the ripper...the ripper....the ripper



Dreamer Deceiver (μέχρι το 5'56¨)

Standing by my window, breathing summer breeze
Saw a figure floating, 'neath the willow tree
Asked us if we were happy, we said we didn't know
Took us by the hands and up we go

We followed the dreamer through the purple hazy clouds
He could control our sense of time
We thought we were lost but no matter how we tried
Everyone was in peace of mind

We felt the sensations drift inside our frames
Finding complete contentment there
And all the tensions that hurt us in the past
Just seemed to vanish in thin air

He said in the cosmos is a single sonic sound
That is vibrating constantly
And if we could grip and hold on to the note
We would see our minds were free...oh they're free

We are lost above
Floating way up high
If you think you can find a way
You can surely try

Deceiver

Solar winds are blowing
Neutron star controlling
All is lost, doomed and tossed, at what cost forever

Meteors fly around me
Comets die, and then they
And then they, you wanna see how they try to surround me
I can say, here today, we shall stay forever

If you want to find us in a hurry
Oh let me tell you don't you worry
I can't say, here today, we shall stay forever

  1. Είναι όντως δισκάρα ή μοιυ φαίνεται; Μάλλον είναι. Θυμάμαι που το έδινε το Metal Hummer μια εποχή και είχε γίνει χαμός.

    Γεια σου φίλε μου.

  2. Και βέβαια είναι :)

    ΥΓ Μήπως λες το Hero-Hero?



    Το μυαλό μου συνειρμικά έρχεται στο προηγούμενο post και αναρωτιέμαι...

    Υπάρχουν πολλά pop/hip hop/r'n'b -κ.ο.κ.- albums που έχουν μείνει στην ιστορία για το πάνω απο το 50% των τραγουδιών τους;

    χμμμμμμμμμ


    cheers!
