This song is about living in the fast lane and people may recall it from the Soprano's. This is a live version featuring the late great Solomon Burke joining Van Morrison:

Fast Train - Van Morrison with Solomon Burke

[Sirius Lee]

I doubt there's a single other Freeper who ever heard of this group, though they've been around for 40 plus years.

This is about dying. It's a beautiful song. Anthem really. One of those "starts slow, builds and builds, numbers.

The lead has a Freddy Mercury quality.

"Someone must rise for us. Someone must die for us. Justice will be served. I'll give my life for us. Lay myself down. I'll take that blue for us, for all that I love..."
