Is rock music moving on without us?

That version of version of "Rock and Roll All Night" is almost sacrilegious. Sounds more like country than rock. Speaking of rock and religion...

Don't think this was ever performed live though so that's not a very rock and roll thing after all.

Always loved this.

Ok, ze German changed ze rools. What suits it better than this? The Scorps intended to make their final retirement album and happened to strike so hard they simply could'nt quit once released and toured. From the Sting In The Tail album which also made my jaw drop. They proved they still had it in them:

The Alan Merrill song is spot on, I was talking about the Kiss cover by Toad the wet sprocket. By the way, rock and roll ain't noise pollution and will never die.

Oops, I suppose I should read before replying.

If you had watched Young Einstein, you would know that young Albert invented the electric guitar and returned to his native Tasmania (where he had discovered the Theory of Relativity while trying to create a head of foam on his beer) in the early 1900s to perform.

More bad German rhyming ("Here I aim, rock you like a hurricane" or "Here I am, rock you like a hurry-can", either way, it's not richtig) ...

[Basvarken]

Who says it has to rhyme?
I've never heard it as if it's intended to rhyme.

Aber alle Scorpions Songtexte müssen sich reimen, Robert, immer! If need be at gun point.



Zat is why you haff all zose shouting bodies whose desires break out loud ...


It's early morning, the sun comes out
Last night was shaking and pretty loud
My cat is purring, it scratches my skin
So what is wrong with another sin?

The bitch is hungry, she needs to tell
So give her inches and feed her well
More days to come, new places to go
I've got to leave, it's time for a show


Here I am
Rock you like a hurricane
Here I am
Rock you like a hurricane

My body is burning, it starts to shout
Desire is coming, it breaks out loud
Lust is in cages till storm breaks loose
Just have to make it with someone I choose

The night is calling, I have to go
The wolf is hungry, he runs the show
He's licking his lips, he's ready to win
On the hunt tonight for love at first sting

It's early morning, the sun comes out
Last night was shaking and pretty loud

This proves your point Uwe, with loud pronounced lout of course. Probably made perfect sense when those lyrics were penned down.

Rhyming hasn't mattered ever since The Undertones rhymed cabbage with challenge.

You'd like, a holly day...

Ah yes, Undertones and what became of (some of) them ... alas!, a good rhyme these days is hard to find, so please be gentle with this rhyme of mine ...



Feargal not only changed his hair quite a bit.

And of course Joe Elliott's favourite singer:

That's from 1985. The Undertones are still going strong without Feargal. It's always been the O'Neill brothers' band anyway.

Which is nothing but a straight copy of the original...
