Here is an interesting fact ... which band has been together for the longest ? the answer would be Scorpions . The band is pretty obscure now at least mainstream but everyone remembers there oldie
Wind of Change . Never followed them much but had this track on a compilation track . I actually like the guitars and esp the riffs that go with this track . Yeah German accent's weird but actually goes with the track (the
flower part is amazing) .
In most proper rock track there is never a balance . Its either the guitar that overshadows vocals or the other way around . There are few track on which the guitarist and the singer are on sync . And you just dont remember the track for one thing only, a good example would be
Sweet Child of Mine ... you cant have enough of Slash's solo but a screaming neurotic Axel is always on back of your mind . This is one of the few track which also achieves the fine balance between the guitar and vocalist . They complement each other perfectly .
Yeah its a tad slow but the lyrics are really sweet . Thats another rarity for a rock track ... . If it wasn't for Scorpions / Rammstein I would have considered Germany hassehoff or Hoff Country ... . So here is
Scorpions -
You & I
You & I - Scorpions
I lose control because of you babe
I lose control when you look at me like this
there's something in your eyes that is sayin' tonight
I'm not a child anymore, life has opened the door
to a new exciting life
I lose control when I'm close to you babe
I lose control don't look at me like this
there's something in your eyes, is this love at first sight
like a flower that grows, life just wants you to know
all the secrets of life
It's all written down in your lifelines
it's written down inside your heart
You and I just have a dream
to find our love a place
where we can hide away
you and I were just made
to love each other now
forever and a day
I lose control because of you babe
I lose control when you look at me like this
there's something in your eyes that is sayin tonight
I'm so curious for more just like never before
in my innocent life
It's all written down in your lifelines
it's written down inside your heart
You and I just have a dream
to find our love a place
where we can hide away
you and I were just made
to love each other now
forever and a day
Time stands still
when days of innocence are falling for the night
I love you girl I always will
I swear I'm there for you till the day I'll die
