Stealin' è tratto da Sweet Freedom (1973), il sesto lavoro da studio degli Uriah Heep. È riconosciuto all'unanimità come il miglior pezzo dell'album ed ebbe all'epoca il meritato successo in molti paesi. David Byron, in grandissima forma, dà l'ennesima prova della sua estensione vocale, con un ritmo accattivante scandito in maniera veramente efficace dall'organo di Ken Hensley. Stealin' (1973) ________________________ Take me across the water cause I need some place to hide I done the ranchers daughter and I sure did hurt his pride Well, there's a hundred miles of desert lies between his hide and mine I don't need no food and no water, Lord cos I'm running out of time Fightin', killin', wine and women gonna put me to my grave Runnin', hidin', losin', cryin' Nothing left to save... but my life Stood on a ridge and shunned religion thinking the world was mine I made my break and a big mistake stealin', when I should've been buyin' All that fightin', killin', wine and those women gonna put me to an early grave Runnin', hidin', losin', cryin' Nothing left to save... but my life, life, life... So I stood on a ridge and shunned religion thinking the world was mine I made my break and a big mistake stealin', when I should've been buyin' I was stealin when I shouldve been buyin I was stealin when I shouldve been buyin Stealin, when I shouldve been buyin ..

Haunting ballad by Uriah Heep from the 1972 album The Magician's Birthday. It's raining outside But thats not unusual But the way that Im feeling Is becoming usual I guess you could say The clouds are moving away Away from your days And into mine Now its raining inside Its kind of a shame And its getting to me A happy man Why should you want to Waste all my time The world is yours But I am mine Rain, rain, rain in my tears Measuring carefully my years Shame, shame, shame in my mind See what you've done to my life This is a fan video and is covered and protected under the Fair Use clause of the US Copyright Act of 1976 as amended by the DMCA of 1998.

Somewhere in your eyes that very special glow Something drawing me to where I do not know I never really thought that I would lose myself Now I'm going faster than anybody else You move without a sound and touch me with your hand Just like the rain that fondles every grain of sand This thing we're gonna do it's just for you and me I'm gonna make it good, good as it can be, oh Your kiss is sweeter now, your breath is getting warm We must take our time and last it through 'til dawn I wonder will it be oh, I expect it to There have been other girls, no one else like you I feel a power here, I never felt before And I begin to see what drives us to want more Oh, girl of all my dreams please tell me if I'm wrong Because I've been blue but we belong, oh As time passed and all too fast I just knew we couldn't last And I guessed that the end was near at hand, oh yeah Though we tried our love inside it just crumpled up and died What went wrong I will never, never understand you tell me why Alone again, how could you leave me? Alone again I don't want to be Alone again, yeah There's a line in a rhyme I was going to send to you It says, 'All that is to be will surely be' So oh, though you had to go 'cause you needed someone new Is there still a chance that you'll come back to me? I want you back you see Alone again, how could you leave me? Alone again, how could you leave me? Alone again, I don't wanna be alone again, yeah Somewhere in your eyes that very special glow Something <b>...</b>

Great song this classic hard rock band with John Lawton from Innocent Victim album; lyrics: I was walking alone thru a side show With passion and pain on each side. Something inside me was calling For a chance to stay alive. At the time I didn't know what was calling As my head was buried in grief. Today I heard what was crying. My FREEDOM calling me And we all make our choices Like a blind man feels his way, And the choice I've made is simple: Passion over pain. When I got to the end of the side show And looked back to where I had been, My eyes filled with teardrops of loneliness For the ones who will never be free And we all make our choices Like a blind man feels his way, And the choice I've made is simple: Passion over pain. I thought of the children in the side show As they wandered around so confused. Some day they'll make their decision But which one will they choose? And we all make our choices Like a blind man feels his way, And the choice I've made is simple: Passion over pain.

Music: The Park - Uriah Heep Indian-Summer/Fall-Images from the Botanical Gardens and Slottsskogen-Park in Gothenburg, Sweden. For years I took Uriah Heep's "The Park" as just a beautiful song about a beautiful park. Only while working on this little image-show did I realize that the song is in memory of a young man "who died in a needless war". I came to think of a young man who suffered this fate and had a memorial plaque in this very park I was taking my pictures. David was a young Swede who went to New York to work for a while at a company located high up in the World Trade Center. He did not survive the terror attacks on September 11th 2001. I dedicate this little image-show to him - as one of the many youngsters whose dreams do not soar any longer since their lives were cut short by needless war and senseless violence.

Uriah Heep _ Lady in black A Salisbury c. lemezről 1971-ben adták ki.. Lyrics: She came to me one morning One lonely Sunday morning Her long hair flowing In the midwinter wind I know not how she found me For in darkness I was walking And destruction lay around me From a fight I could not win Ah ah ah ... She asked me name my foe then I said the need within some men To fight and kill their brothers Without thought of love or God And I begged her give me horses To trample down my enemy So eager was my passion To devour this waste of life Ah ah ah ... But she would not think of battle that REDUCES men to animals So easy to begin And then impossible to end For she, the mother of all men had counselled me so wisely then I feared to walk alone again And asked if she would stay Ah ah ah ... Oh lady lend your hand I cried And let me rest here at your side Have faith and trust In me she said And filled my heart with life There is no strength in numbers Have no such misconception But when you need me Be assured I won't be far away Ah ah ah ... Thus having spoke she turned away And though I found no words to say I stood and watched until I saw Her black form disappear My labor is no easier But now I know I'm not alone I find new heart each time I think upon that windy day And if one day she comes to you Drink deeply from her words so wise Take courage from her As your prize And say hello for me Ah ah ah ...

RIP David Byron,Gary Thain URIAH HEEP-Circus album:Sweet Freedom released:1973 lyrics: Walkin' around this concrete garden Viewing all in vain Thinking why a dream Is driving everyone insane Then something will come And make you feel The master in control Still you're picking up And screwing anyone Who's got a soul I've been here Far too long to remember Sights and sounds From this town of clowns Makin' up, dressin' up Walkin' around Thinkin' that you're Greta Garbos I'm sorry my dears But we only sat down And laughed and laughed in sorrow But it was you That opened the door And it's that we thank you for Everyone insane ... Everyone's insane

From Look At Yourself (1971). In My Opinion Greatest Uriah Heep album ever. Lyrics: I see you running Don't know what You're running from Nobody's coming What'd you do that was so wrong Look back and turn back Look at yourself Don't be afraid, just Look at yourself If you need assistance Or if all you need is love There's no point in hiding Tell me what youre frightened of You've got a friend, just Look at yourself Don't be afraid, just Look at yourself

www.discogs.com www.myspace.com Uriah Heep's by-the-books progressive heavy metal made the British band one of the most popular hard rock groups of the early '70s. Formed by vocalist David Byron and guitarist Mick Box in the late '60s, the group went through an astonishing number of members over the next two decades — nearly 30 different musicians passed through the band over the years. Byron and Box were members of the mid-'60s rock band called the Stalkers; once that band broke up, the duo formed another group called Spice. Spice would eventually turn into Uriah Heep in the late '60s, once Ken Hensley (guitar, keyboards, vocals) and bassist Paul Newton joined the pair. Former Spice drummer Alex Napier was the band's drummer for a brief time; he was quickly replaced by Nigel Olsson. Uriah Heep released their debut album Very 'eavy...Very 'umble (called Uriah Heep in the US) in 1970. After its release, Keith Baker became the group's drummer; he recorded Salisbury, the group's second album, before deciding he couldn't keep up with the band's extensive touring and was replaced by Ian Clarke. Salisbury, featuring a 16-minute title track recorded with a 26-piece orchestra, showcased the band's more progressive tendencies. Later that year, Ian Clarke was replaced by Lee Kerslake and Mark Clarke replaced Newton; Mark Clarke quickly left the band and Gary Thain became the group's bassist. This lineup of Uriah Heep was its most stable and popular; beginning with 1972's Demons and <b>...</b>
