Yngwie Malmsteen's Rising Force, или как Тёрнер не поссорился с Блэкмором

[liljaguar]

В детстве был на любимой кассете среди жемчужин хард-рока клип на Yngwie Malmsteen's Rising Force - Heaven Tonight.
Я ещё тогда не знала, что Тёрнер несколько ранее тех дней пел в Deep Purple, не говоря уж о Ritchie Blacmore's Rainbow.
И никак не ассоциировала певца из клипа со стоявшей на полке аудиокассетой "Slaves and Masters".
А теперь я всё это знаю (какое приятное знание! сколько удовольствия!),

К слову, Джо Линн Тёрнер - чуть ли не единственный, кто не ссорился с Ритчи Блэкмором.

А вот с Ингви они не сошлись характерами и постоянно ссорились.
Позднее Тёрнер об этом рассказывал так:

Понимаете, Ингви считает, что он бог.
Но мы-то с вами знаем, что бог - Блэкмор.

Подписываюсь под этими словами :-)

Lost in a dream in the arms of the night
Two lonely prisoners of our own device
Don't let me go. Hold on together
You wanna know if love can be real
I wanna take everything I can steal
Love on the line, it's now or never.
Why can't the night last forever.

[Chorus:]
This could be Paradise
Holding you here by my side
If we just close our eyes
We'll be in Heaven tonight.

Run through the night down streets of desire
Burning my soul, my heart's on fire
Give up the fight, it's sweet surrender
With trembling hands we reach for it all
Two desperate hearts waiting to fall
I need you now, now more than ever.
Why can't the night last forever.

[Repeat first Chorus]
This feels like Paradise
I see the world in our eyes
If we just hold on tight
We'll be in Heaven tonight.

Out of the darkness the voices are calling
Riding the wings of a song
The Fury is screaming and Heaven is falling
I feel it coming on strong.

The lightning strikes cracking the night
It feels like never before
Thunder and sparks in the Heart of the Dark
I hear a Rising Force.

Searching my soul I find something else
I take my life in my hands
From the gates of Heaven to the altars of Hell
The Power is at my command.

The lightning strikes cracking the night
I'm not the same anymore
Thunder and spark in the Heart of the Dark
I feel a Rising Force.

--Solo--

Burned by the glory of a sacred fire
A Rising Force starts to shine
Alone in the inferno it soars ever higher
Leaving the demons behind.

The lightning strikes cracking the night
It feels like never before
Thunder and sparks in the Heart of the Dark
I hear a Rising Force.

The lightning strikes cracking the night
I'm not the same anymore
Thunder and spark in the Heart of the Dark
I feel a Rising Force.
