Saw them live at the Carling Academy (as it was) in Bristol
They are really good. But still think Nightwish have the edge.
I don’t compare so much like that…Love finding ‘new to me’ music and enjoy so many Genre’s…Just enjoy music, more than anything else…
My friend plays drums for Sweet and is Andy Scotts tech. I’ve got some of his guitar picks kicking around somewhere. I prefer Love is Like Oxygen but they are definitely the best glam band from that era.
I’m also a huge fan of the Scorpions - my favourite of their albums is Love at First Sting, or is it Blackout, or is it Animal Magnetism ??? I just can’t decide …
dont need to decide…listen to both
That’s a beautiful song !
Glad you like it thank you, Minx
Blackbird
The willow it weeps today
A breeze from the distance is calling your name
Unfurl your black wings and wait
Across the horizons coming to sweep you away
It’s coming to sweep you away
Let the wind carry you home
Blackbird fly away
May you never be broken again
The fragile can not endure
The wrecked and jaded
A place so impure
The static of this cruel world
'Cause some birds to fly long before they’ve seen their day
Long before they’ve seen their day
Let the wind carry you home
Blackbird fly away
May you never be broken again
Beyond the suffering you’ve known
I hope you find your way
May you never be broken again
Ascend, may you find no resistance
Know that you’ve made such a difference
And all you leave behind
Will live till the end
The cycle of suffering goes on
But the memories of you stay strong
Someday I too will fly and find you again
Let the wind carry you home
Blackbird fly away
May you never be broken again
Beyond the suffering you’ve known
I hope you find your way
May you never be broken again
May you never be broken again
