Where Eagles Dare - Iron Maiden


It's snowing outside the rumbling sound
of engines roar in the night,
The mission is near the confident men
are waiting to drop from the sky.

The Blizzard goes on but still they must fly
No one should go where eagles dare.

Bavarian alps that lay all around
they seem to stare from below,
The enemy lines a long time passed
are lying deep in the snow.

Into the night they fall through the sky
No one should fly where eagles dare.

They're closing in the fortress is near
it's standing high in the sky,
The cable car's the only way in
it's really impossible to climb.

They make their way but maybe too late
They've got to try to save the day.

The panicking cries the roaring of guns
are echoing all round the valley,
The mission complete they make to escape
away from the Eagles Nest.

They dared to go where no one would try
they chose to fly where eagles dare.

When The Eagle Cries - Iced Earth

Another day, just like any other
Out of the blue, it turned to horror
How could they? Why would they?
The innocents suffered hell's inferno
An senseless act that goes unforgotten
How could they? They will pay

When the eagle cries
When the eagle cries
When the eagle cries
When the eagle cries
When the eagle cries

Out of the ashes came a tempted vengeance
But we are focused, we seek redemption
We are free, we'll stay free
All they've done, is make us stronger
The sleeping giant, is asleep no longer
If need be, we'll die free

When the eagle cries
(Blood will flow)
When the eagle cries
(For freedom's fight)

When the eagle cries
(We love us all)
When the eagle cries
(We'll sacrifice)
When the eagle cries

When the eagle cries
(Blood will flow)
When the eagle cries
(For freedom's fight)

When the eagle cries
(We love us all)
When the eagle cries
(We'll sacrifice)
When the eagle cries

Moody Blues “Voices in the Sky”

[Publius]

I didn't know that the Canucks were a hockey team until I looked them up this morning. There I was, dressed in my jacket and tie, on my way to lieder concert, and everybody going in the other direction had Canucks shirts and jerseys on. One guy put his hand out for a high five, which I duly gave, but I didn't know why. The Vancouver team apparently is headed for the NHL playoffs.

I have a hard time linking weed and hockey. Beer and hockey, yes!

1942 Turkey in the Straw--Carson Robison (1942)

[ARepublicanForAllReasons]

That's a good pick, real sax. So is Lullaby of Birdland, by George Shearing. But what surprises me is that no one has mentioned Hoagy Carmichael's Skylark!

Am I the only one here who remembers the American classics? I'm just 66 and I feel I'm not in my age group and I wonder where the boomers are.
