Σαν σήμερα οι "ακόμα-παίζουμε-Heavy-Metal-και-σας-κόβουμε-τον-κ*%#-"Saxon κυκλοφόρησαν το Wheels Of Steel
Είναι μια απο τις μπάντες που ξεκίνησε αυτό το New Wave Of British Heavy Metal -και τους ευχαριστώ γιαυτό-
Είναι απο τις λίγες ανά τον πλανήτη μπάντες που ενώ έχουν τόση μεγάλη ιστορία στην πλάτη τους, ΣΕΒΟΝΤΑΙ τον οπαδό τους, προσφέροντας του τίμιο Heavy Metal.
Παίζουν εγγυημένα 2 ώρες σε κάθε συναυλία, άσχετα αν κάτω έχουν 1000 ή 10000 οπαδούς.
Και πάντα πιάνουν υψηλά στάνταρτ απόδοσης.
Για μένα είναι απο τις μπάντες που τρέφω τεράστιο σεβασμό.
Το track list είναι το εξής:
1. Motorcycle Man
2. Stand Up and Be Counted
3. 747 (Strangers in the Night)
4. Wheels of Steel
5. Freeway Mad
6. See the Light Shining
7. Street Fighting Gang
8. Suzie Hold On
9. Machine Gun
Με τον αγέραστο-και-πάντα-ποτισμένο-με-ενέργεια-που-ξεπερνάει-και-16χρονο Biff Byford -φωνή- με τον έχω-μόνιμα-ξενερωμένο-ύφος-αλλά-κατά-βάθος-γουστάρω-πολύ Paul Quinn -κιθάρα- με τον Graham Oliver -κιθάρα- με τον Steve Dawson -μπάσο και τον Pete Gill -τύμπανα- να μας προσφέρουν αυτόν τον γεμάτο ενέργεια και Heavy Metal ύμνους δίσκο...
Για τους μη-μυημένους, τους προτείνω να ακούσουν 747 Strangers In The Night και Suzie Hold On
Οι υπόλοιποι....
n'joy
If you see me riding by
Do not stop me do not try
Cause I'm a motorcycle man
I get my kicks just when I can
Motorcycle man
Motorcycle man
Like an angel slick machine
Were taking risks that's what we mean
Cause we're all motorcycle men
We get our kicks just when we can
Down, down at the bottom
Ya gotta try to get yourselves up
Ya got nothing to lose when your there
There at the bottom
Ya gotta stand up
Stand up for your rights
We can make it
You can break it
Stand up
Stand up be counted
Out, out in the spotlight
Ya gotta leave, leave your worries behind
Ya got nothing to lose when your there
You be forgotten
Well I'll be damning out lives
While the damn us in hell
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
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 light
Scandinavian one-o-one
For God's sake get your ground lights on
When my foots on the throttle there's no looking back
I leave the motor tickin' over when she's back on the track
I've got a 68 Chevy with pipes on the side
You know she's my idea of beauty, that's what I drive
She's got wheels, wheels of steel
She's got wheels of steel
Wheels of steel
Talking 'bout my wheels of steel
I don't take no jibe from the motorway pigs
When I'm crusin' down the freeway I don't get no lifts
If you see me coming get out of my way
You know a Trans Am didn't, I blew it away
She's got wheels, wheels of steel
She's got wheels of steel
Wheels of steel
My my my my wheels of steel
I'm burnin' aviation fuel my foot's to the floor
Ya know she's crusin one-forty she'd do even more
I'm burnin' solid rubber I don't take no bull
'Cause my wheels of steel are rolling
They're rolling your way
I'm burnin' aviation fuel my foot's to the floor
Ya know she's crusin' one- forty she'd do even more
I'm burnin' solid rubber I don't take no bull (shit)
'Cause my wheels of steel are rolling
If you're comin' come quick
I'm screaming down the freeway
Gonna try and burn you out
I'm keeping in the fast lane
Top me and I'll take you out
And I know, yes I know
I want it so bad
I'm freeway mad
I'm burning down the freeway
Doing ninety miles an hour
I'm faster than a speedboat
Pulling every inch of power.
I'm going down the freeway
Never gonna get me out
Steaming like a freight train
Gonna blow my pistons out
And I know, yes I know
I want it so bad
I need it so bad
I want it so bad
Fu-fu-fu-fucking freeway mad
When you're dyin', when you're dyin'
There ain't no use in cryin'
I'm gonna keep on livin' till the light
Shines down on you
Burnin' right in
Ya can't stop when you're winning
I'm gonna show my hand make history
Show me the way
Show me the way
Show me the way
Show me the way
Show me the way
Show me the way
I'm dyin', I'm dyin'
There ain't no use in tryin'
I'm gonna keep on livin' till the light's
Shining down on you
Burnin' right in
Ya can't stop when you're winning
I'm gonna show my head make history
I can see the light shining
It's shining down on me, yeah
I can see the light shining
It shines on you and me, yeah, you and me
There's a new day dawning
It's here to set me free, yeah
I can see the changes coming
It's coming over me, over me
I can see the light shining
I can see the light shining
I can see the light shining
I can see the light shining
Shine on, shine on
When I went to school
I was nobody's fool
No good for me
I was living carefree
Staying out all night
Learning to fight
I got the dirty
I was tough, I was mean
It was up to me
Stree-stree-stree-street fighting gang
I don't need no spelling
I take my winning when I'm ready
But you wouldn't be alike
When we learn to fight
When we start to roam
Then you'd better stay home
'Cause I'm a member of the street elite
You know it's trouble to all we meet
It was up to me
Fighting through the night
Doing alright
We might take your life
Street fighting gang
Street fighting gang
If I take you out one night
And you're risking your life
If I show you the blade
You got a fool in your brain
'Cause I don't give a damn, no
'Cause I don't know you
I'm a member of the street elite
You know it's trouble to all we meet
It was up to me
Street fighting gang
Street fighting gang
I'm in a street fighting gang
Street fighting gang
I'm in a gang
The gang
I wish I had a fortune
I'd take the pain away
We could be together
That's how we need to stay
'Cause you can change the world
The world in which you live in, live in
Suzie hold on
Do everything you believe to be right
Doing it all the time
Fighting the fight you believe to be right
Doing it all the time
When we were far apart
No one could be closer
Please don't take your life
'Cause that would break my heart
Try to stop your crying
We both know you're dying, dying
Suzie hold on
Don't you know that you can change the world
Don't you know that you can change the world
Change the world, you can change the world
Suzie you can change the world
I can't stop you crying
Even though you're dying
Move in to the front underhanded fire
Hear the bullets flying millions every hour
Tracers in the night shooting across the sky
For God's sake cover me I don't wanna die
Machine gun
Machine gun
Machine gun
Machine gun
Over the top into the wire
Running like a madman into the fire
No-mans land, fighting for your life
Fighting hand to hand forced to use your knife
Come the wheels of terror crushing all before
Chews you to the bone to hear the monsters roar
With the clash of iron the battles never won
For the forgotten soldier it's only just begun
It's gonna shoot you down
Move in to the front underhanded fire
Hear the bullets flying millions every hour
Tracers in the night shooting across the sky
For God's sake cover me I don't wanna die
