Metal Song – Madhouse

By Anthrax. 80’s Metal at its finest. I have a fetish for the hair this week I guess! (Sorry peeps, the REAL video on you tube cannot be imbedded here, so you will have to imagine it.)  And the whole madhouse/insane theme fits me well……

White coats to bind me, out of control
I live alone inside my mind
World of confusion, air filled with noise
Who says that my lifes such a crime?

Trapped, in this nightmare
I wish Id wake
As my whole life begins to shake
Four walls, surround me
An empty gaze
I cant find my way out of this maze

cause I dont care
Fall in, fall out
Gone without a doubt, help me
I cant take the blame
They dont feel the shame

Its a madhouse
Or so they claim
Its a madhouse
Oh, am I insane?

My fears behind me, what can I do
My dreams haunt my sleep at night
Oh no, wont learn their lesson, white fills my eyes
And only then they see the light

Wed Rock Song – Whole Lotta Love

[Chorus]

Way down inside… woman… You need… love.

Shake for me, girl. I wanna be your backdoor man.
Keep it coolin’, baby.

Wednesday Rock Song – One Step Closer

By Linkin Park.

I cannot take this anymore
I’m saying everything I’ve said before
All these words they make no sense
I find bliss in ignorance
Less I hear the less you’ll say
But you’ll find that out anyway

Just like before…

Everything you say to me
Takes me one step closer to the edge
And I’m about to break
I need a little room to breathe
Cause I’m one step closer to the edge
And I’m about to break

I find the answers aren’t so clear
Wish I could find a way to disappear
All these thoughts they make no sense
I find bliss in ignorance
Nothing seems to go away
Over and over again

Chorus

Shut up when I’m talking to you
Shut up, shut up, shut up (2x)

I�m about to break!

Chorus

Wed Hard Rock Song – Firefly

By Breaking Benjamin.  It has one bad word, so parental discretion is advised.

Wednesday Rock Song – My Girl

By Aerosmith.  Love the bass line on this.

My Girl, she breathes hellfire
And My Girl, she feeds my desire
My Girl Sadie, she’s the wind in my sails
A puss’n boots lady with a cat o’ nine tails
Comin’ after you honey, feet don’t fail me now

My Girl, she’s a bare back rider
And My Girl, she’s Lady Godiva
She’s a full time love no mon ami
Sweeter than honey from a honeybee
And it all rubs off on little old me, oh

Slippin’ in and out of love
Slippin’ in and out of love
Slippin’ in and out of love
Slippin’ in and out of love

My Girl, she smokes barbed wire
And My Girl, can’t get no higher
I made it with the lady and a one track mind
Diamonds in the rough, they’re so hard find
Day after day, the same old grind
And grind and grind and grind….

My Girl, My Girl, My Girl, My Girl….

My Girl, she’s bare back rider
And My Girl, she’s Lady Godiva
She’s a full time love no mon ami
Sweeter than honey from a honeybee
And it all rubs off on little old me, oh

Slippin’ in and out of love
Slippin’ in and out of love
Slippin’ in and out of love
Slippin’ in and out of love

Oh, My Girl!

Breaking Tradition – Special Wednesday Song

Okay, so Wednesday is SUPPOSED to be Metal Day!  But, since I hold the keys to this blog, I can break the rules!  And here’s why:

Last night, just as I was getting into bed (literally!), I get a text from Kirstie saying, “Hey Ma are you home?”  I replied yes and she said, “Get online, I need to show you something.”  So I putz onto my computer, log onto iChat, and say “what’s up?”  She sends me an iTunes file of the song White Horse, by Taylor Swift, except instead of Taylor singing, it was Kirstie!

Now let me tell you, I have ALWAYS thought Kirstie was an excellent singer.  I tried to get her to sing a church a few times and even thought she had talent when she was four.  But she would have none of it.  And I am kicking myself now because this very primitive recording is – in my humble opinion – awesome!  (Yes, I know I am extremely biased…..)  So, without even consulting her, I have added the music to some random pics and uploaded it to YouTube.  So now, please check it out and enjoy!

Gina OUT!

Wednesday Metal Song – Two Minutes to Midnight

By one of my favorite bands of all time – Iron Maiden!  Special shout of to Martin, who does NOT like them LO (you know you wanna listen, you know it!).  I love the bass line in this song……and of the drums of course!

Lyrics

Kill for gain or shoot to maim
But we dont need a reason
The golden goose is on the loose
And never out of season
Some blackened pride still burns inside
This shell of bloody treason
Heres my gun for a barrel of fun
For the love of living death.

Chorus
The killers breed or the demons seed,
The glamour, the fortune, the pain,
Go to war again, blood is freedoms stain,
But don’t you pray for my soul anymore.
2 minutes to midnight
The hands that threaten doom.
2 minutes to midnight
To kill the unborn in the womb.

The blind men shout let the creatures out
Well show the unbelievers
The napalm screams of human flames
Of a prime time belsen feast…yeah!
As the reasons for the carnage cut their meat and lick the gravy,
We oil the jaws of the war machine and feed it with our babies.

Chorus

The body bags and little rags of children torn in two
And the jellied brains of those who remain to put the finger right on you.
As the madmen play on words and make us all dance to their song,
To the tune of starving millions to make a better kind of gun.

Chorus

Midnight…all night…

Wednesday Rock Song – Holy Diver

By Dio. One of my ALL TIME favorite metal/rock songs! And I got pretty damn good on Guitar Hero, too!   And this video is SO 80’s!

Lyrics

Holy Diver
You’ve been down too long in the midnight sea
Oh what’s becoming of me

Ride the tiger
You can see his stripes but you know he’s clean
Oh don’t you see what I mean

Gotta get away
Holy Diver

Shiny diamonds
Like the eyes of a cat in the black and blue
Something is coming for you

Race for the morning
You can hide in the sun ’till you see the light
Oh we will pray it’s all right

Gotta get away-get away

Between the velvet lies
There’s a truth that’s hard as steel
The vision never dies
Life’s a never ending wheel

Holy Diver
You’re the star of the masquerade
No need to look so afraid

Jump on the tiger
You can feel his heart but you know he’s mean
Some light can never be seen

Repeat verse 1

Wednesday Metal Song – Realign

By Godsmack, one of my “newer” metal favs.

Lyrics

Decisions made from desperation
No way to go
Internal instincts craving isolation
For me to grow

My fears come alive
In this place where I once died
Demons dreaming
Knowing I…I just needed to realign

Fell in a river of illusion
And apathy
Drowning in a self-induced confusion
I’d rather be YEAH!

My fears come alive
In this place where I once died
Demons dreaming
Knowing I…I just needed to realign

My fears come alive
In this place where I once died
Demons dreaming
Knowing I…I just needed to realign

My fears come alive
In this place where I once died
Demons dreaming
Knowing I…I just needed to realign

My fears come alive
In this place where I once died
Demons dreaming
Knowing I…I just needed to realign
Yeah!
