Dio ~ Stand Up And Shout
It's the same old song
You've gotta be somewhere at sometime
They never let you fly.
It's like broken glass
You get cut before you see it
So open up your eyes.
You've got desire
So let it out.
You've got the fire
Stand up and shout-shout.
You've got wings of steel
But they never really move you
You only seem to crawl.
You've been nailed to the wheel
But never really turning
You know you've got to want it all.
You've got desire
So let it out.
You've got the fire
Stand up and shout.
You are the strongest chain
And not just some reflection
So never hide again.
You are the driver
You own the road
You are the fire go on explode.
You've got desire
So let it out.
You've got the power
Stand up and shout.
One of my all time favorite Dio songs. Thanks to Mr. Mike for reminding me just how great he is.
How about this one, Mr. Mike? Its from their second album "The Last in Line", which I also had on cassette.
Dio ~ We Rock
You watch their faces
You'll see the traces
Of the things they want to be
But only we can see.
They come for killing
They leave and still it seems
The cloud that's left behind
Oh, can penetrate your mind.
But sail on, sing a song, carry on
Cause We Rock, We Rock, We Rock, We Rock.
We pray to someone
But when it's said and done
It's really all the same
With just a different name.
So many voices
All giving choices
If we listen they will say
Oh, we can find the way.
But we'll sail on, sing a song, carry on
Cause We Rock, We Rock, We Rock, We Rock.
We Rock, We Rock, We Rock, We Rock.
We Rock!
We Rock
You watch their faces
You'll see the traces
Of the things they want to be
But only we can see.
They come for killing
They leave and still it seems
The cloud that's left behind
Can penetrate your mind.
Sail on, sing a song, carry on
Cause We Rock, We Rock, We Rock, We Rock.
We Rock, We Rock, We Rock, We Rock.
Ride out - stand and shout - carry on.
Sail on - Sing your song - carry on.
Cause We Rock, We Rock, see how We Rock.
We Rock.
That's rock.
We Rock.
We Rock.

Thanks Some Kinda Wonderful! Really enjoyed the posts, the combo of Dio and Vivian Campbell was really powerful. After seeing Heaven & Hell play on VH1 Classic I listened to that Black Sabbath CD a few times this year and it was very good. "We Rock" was great, until last year I had no idea there was a video for it but once I saw that I put the song on my IPOD. And "Man On The Silver Mountain" is one of my favorite songs.
Oh, and "Hungry For Heaven", that was good too. Thanks again Some Kinda Wonderful, Dio rules!
"I Speed At Night" is my son's favorite Dio song. Thank God he is beginning to appreciate good classic rock. He recently got the video game "Burnout: Paradise" and that made him want to listen to my old Guns & Roses cassettes. I may have to get the CDs. I don't have any idea how much longer those tapes are going to last. :)
When Mr. Mike learned that a woman that is not his wife, made a dedication to him, he was all smiles.
:D
Ooops! Didn't see your post down there Mrs. Mr. Mike. Hope you didn't mind that I dedicated a post to your man. Love you!
