I LISTENED TO TYRANT, JAWBREAKER AND EAT ME ALIVE THE OTHER NIGHT. THEY SOUND GREAT.

TOTALLY AGREE ABOUT THE EARLY PRIEST SONGS:
RIN OF THE MILL 
DYING TO MEET YOU 
VICTIM OF CHANGES
GENOCIDE
BEYOND THE REALMS OF DEATH
SAVAGE
HEROS END

I WISH THEY WOULD DO MORE OF THESE SONGS LIVE.  THIS IS WHEN I FIRST GOT INTO PRIEST IN 1977. I WAS BLOWN AWAY.

I love the opening lines to Betrayal.... That whole album is smokin'!! I really feel that he should do more stuff with the Halford band.  "Will you go to heaven, Will you land in hell Are the things you're praying for - the things that serve you well?"    (Quoting Message by scorpion01 from Friday, December 12, 2008 10:58:55 AM)   scorpion01 wrote:   I STILL GET CHILLS WHEN I LISTEN TO THE SONG WRATH OF GOD.

Death - The one and only Priest  - I'm in the mood for some Nostradamus.. 

I will take your final breath
And I will be your last regret
Cold blood - runs in my blackened heart
Tearing - every soul apart

Messenger of death - wields the scythe of man's damnation
Messenger of death - hold his blade for termination

Sin - is what I feast upon
I'm forging my crematorium
Your tomb - is waiting here for you
Welcome to my ritual

Messenger of death - wirlds the scythe of man's damnation
Messenger of death - holds his blade for termination

Death rides out from the storm
We turn to God and cry
Ignored we turn to face
This vengeance from the sky

Death rides out from the storm
No time left to repent
No quarter - no escape
No line of self defence

Death rides out from the storm
In terror we confess
Our voice is heard no more
His deed is merciless

Death rides out from the storm
Deface humanity
There's no escape from this
Human calamity

Death rides out from the storm
We turn to God and cry
Ignored we turn to face
This vengeance from the sky
Messenger of death - wields the scythe
Of man's damnation
Messenger of death - holds his blade
For termination

I'm Seeing Nothing - 
                                 
  What's All This Noise - 
                                                               
Could Someone Give Me Something - 

Just To Get Me Through This Boy..

 It's Allright...... It's Allright I'm Just A Little Crazy

Holiday Love
(sung briefly to the tune of Air Supply's All Out Of Love)

Well it's Thanksgiving time, It's such a great day now!
Turkey and bread and pleanty of stuffing!
It's Thanksgiving time, It's time for some jell-o, 
Watch some TV, maybe have some grape Kool-Aid,

OooooH, I think I dig your stuff,
I think I dig your stuff!!

Well it's Thanksgiving time, I love your new blazer!
Your sleeves are pushed up, it looks pretty awesome!

Well thank you my friend, you're so kind to say so,
Your eyes are so blue, I think that I like them

Well it's Thanksgiving time, let's go get a burger,
Maybe some fries, let's go take a car ride,

Go to a motel, drink a gallon of brandy,
Hang out n robes and see what develops

Ooooh! I think I dig your stuff,
I think I dig your ........


note to self : must join SNL addicts anon.

With raised fists of fire,

as they conspire,

I'll be defiant

against the alliance!!

Grand canyons of space and time universal
My mind is subjected, subjected to all

Stab, brawl, punch, crawl
The hooks to my brain are well in
Stab, brawl, punch, crawl
I know what I am, I'm Berlin

Through cracked, blackened memories of unit dispersal
I face the impregnable wall

Stab, brawl, punch, crawl
The hooks to my brain are well in
Stab, brawl, punch, crawl
I know what I am, I'm Berlin

Exploding, reloading, this quest never ending
Until I give out my last breath

I'm stabbing and brawling, I'm punching and crawling
Hooks to my brain are well in
I'm stabbing and brawling, I'm punching and crawling
I know what I am, I'm Berlin

Can you remember... remember my name?
As I flow through your life
A thousand oceans I have flown ooh
And cold... cold spirits of ice ah ah
All my life
I am the echo of your past

I am returning the echo of a point in time
And distant faces shine
A thousand warriors I have known ooh
And laughing as the spirits appear
All your life
Shadows of another day

If you hear me talking on the wind
You've got to understand
We must remain perfect strangers

Auh I know I must remain
Inside this silent well of sorrow
A strand of silver hanging through the sky
Touching more than you see
The voice of ages in your mind ooh
Is aching with the dead of the night
Oouh precious life
Your tears are lost in falling rain

And if you hear me talking on the wind
You've got to understand
We must remain perfect strangers...

for Ron

Hope in my heart
As a new day has dawned
I see your light on the wings of a dove
Lifting me up as the dark clouds retreat
Courage transcends & you make me complete
Hope in my heart with the advent of spring
I am reborn with the love that you bring

so sorry Ron--I just couldn't resist --just be glad I didn't sing the whole song to you !!

thank you --thank you--thank you--Guido--I keep hearing that song but the radio station never tells me who does it

another cd I must buy

It's raining it's pouring
The old man is snoring
Bumped his head
And he went to bed
And  now he can't get up in the morning
it's raining cats n dogs now --got some of that Philly rain from last night

He does have a hot, sexy voice,  but I am thinking of K.K. and making him moan!!!!

JerZgrl.. this made me think of you xxxxx

I've been feeling lonesome I'm down, don't know what to do
I let you lie to me
plant seeds inside
to see them grow
only to leave them to die

I learned my lesson
I won't be forgetting
I won't give my heart out
without suspecting
why cry
why cry
why cry
for you

I've been lost and finding
out that I've been such a fool
you thought you'd stick around
until the day you found
someone to make me obsolete

I learned my lesson
I won't be forgetting
I won't give my heart out
without suspecting
why cry
why cry
why cry
why cry
for you

I learned my lesson
I won't be forgetting
I won't give my heart out
without suspecting

For Deep Freeze--Scorpion & all other Dodgers fans

I've paid my dues
Time after time
I've done my sentence
But committed no crime
And bad mistakes
I've made  a few
I've had  my share of sand kicked in my face
But I've come through

We are the champions--my friend 
And we'll keep on fighting til the end 
WE ARE THE CHAMPIONS --WE ARE THE CHAMPIONS    
No time for losers
Cause WE ARE THE CHAMPIONS---OF THE WORLD 

I've taken my bows 
And my curtain calls
You've brought me fame & fortune & everything that goes with it
And I thank you all
But it's been no bed of roses
No pleasure cruise
I consider it a challenge before all human race
And I ain't gonna lose

WE ARE THE CHAMPIONS --MY FRIEND  
AND WE'LL KEEP ON FIGHTING TIL THE END
WE ARE THE CHAMPIONS --WE ARE THE CHAMPIONS 
NO TIME FOR LOSERS 
CAUSE THE PHILLIES ARE THE CHAMPIONS 
OF THE WWWWWOOOOOORRRRLLLLLLLDDDD 
Sorry I just couldn't resist !! 

For Ron
Waiting til the break of day
Searching for something to say
Flashing lights against the sky
Giving up I close my eyes

Sitting cross-legged on the floor
25 or 6 to 4

Staring blindly into space
Getiing up to splash my face
Waiting just to stay awake
Wondering how much I can take

Should I try to do some more
25 or 6 to 4

Feeling like I oughta sleep
Spinning room is sinking dep
Searching for something  to  say
Waiting til the break of day

25 or 6 to 4

Heart of darkness

In every man there's good and bad,
madness lurks in every brain.
Do you know what's deep in your head?
Are you a genius or insane?
Sometimes the other side
breaks through the wall.
Sometimes the borders
deep in you just fall.
General's gone mad in Vietnam,
became a God a lonely one.
Once a soldier of great fame he was,
now killing seems all the same in wars.
Sometimes the other side
breaks through the wall.

You do your duty,
just don't ask why.
Kill him with a cold heart,
he's damned to die.
The river leads you all the way,
you never stop.
You fight to live another day,
can't ever stop.

We're fighting for freedom,
we're fighting for peace.
We're serving our country,
we're fighting for God!
Oh no.

You feel the madness,
the jungle breeds.
It all seems useless,
heroic deeds.
You understand the general more and more,
you lose control.
Madness creeps into your deepest core
and in your soul.

We're fighting for freedom,
we're fighting for peace.
We're serving our country,
we're fighting for God!

In the heart of darkness
I see the fire in the eastern sky.
In the heart of darkness
soldiers fighting for a lie.

In the heart of darkness
I see the fire in the eastern sky.
In the heart of darkness
soldiers dying for a lie.

Man, you're crazy, believe me, you're not God.
Who's to say so, ain't we, all the same.
Man, you slaughter, it's useless, what's your game.
All is useless, war games, it seems insane.

I observed a snail creeping
on the edge of a razor blade.
That is my dream, that is my nightmare
to creep on the edge of the razor blade
and survive... survive... survive... survive...
survive... survive... survive...

You did your duty,
the general is dead.
But you paid a high price,
your mind's gone mad.
Somehow the general had his way,
a point of no retun.
The memories haunt you night and day,
in your soul they burn.

In the heart of darkness
I see the fire in the eastern sky.
In the heart of darkness
soldiers fighting for a lie.

In the heart of darkness
I see the fire in the eastern sky.
In the heart of darkness
soldiers dying for a lie.

In the heart of darkness
I see the fire in the eastern sky.
In the heart of darkness
soldiers fighting for a lie.

In the heart of darkness
I see the fire in the eastern sky.
In the heart of darkness
soldiers dying for a lie.
