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

Budgie~Zoom Club

Come on everyone of you G.I's
You are the ones who can care
Speed on you wonderful dropouts
We'll break the walls of this room in

Zoom along, superstar
All over the land
Move on music man

Come on everyone of you people
You ain't got mud in your eyes
Tell everybody with hunger
Eat up the music tonight

Come on you'll only get harder
I wanna get it to you
You are my life
You turn around in your zoot suit

Come on everyone of you preachers
You do the best that you can
Move on every one of you teachers
You do the best that you can

Zoooom Club....

I will probably have to catch up in the morning, Publius. I am so tired...8 hours stretch without even a potty break.

But I did facilitate the writing of a song... her first!

Hitting the sack now, but I will check out the lieder tomorrow.

(((HUGS))))

[Publius]

Thanks. Did you like the current stuff, 1920’s stuff, or the art songs of the classical composers?

My Blackbirds Are Bluebirds Now--Annette Hanshaw (1928)

[Michael.SF.]

Forgive my selfish indulgence:

I was 19, she was 20, it was 1972. We starteds a trip together destination was undecided. We hitchhiked from Long Beach, California, to Fairbanks, Alaska, then to Minneapolis, Minnesota and back.

She sang this song to me to wake me up that first day, and many days thereafter.
On occasions she still sings it to me, and we both smile. We are celebrating our 40th in September.

Red Red Robin – Al Jolsen

Why don't you get up, get up, get out of bed, cheer up
Live, love, laugh and be happy
What if I were blue, now I'm walking through fields of flowers
Rain may glisten but still I listen for hours and hours

I'm just a kid again, doing what I did again, singing a song
When the red, red robin comes bob, bob, bobbin'
When the red, red robin comes bob, bob, bobbin' along
Along, along, along, along, along.
