I Manowar sono una grandissima Band.

Non hanno scopo di lucro nè interessi legati alla fama od al guadagno. E’ un gruppo che si fonda su amici veri che per anni si sono sforzati ed hanno lottato insieme avendo come unico obiettivo il poter creare questa fratellanza. Amici pronti a farsi centinaia se non migliaia di chilometri, come si può sentire in questo epico, monumentale doppio disco Live dove vengono eseguiti alcuni dei loro brani storici più importanti, per stare insieme e celebrare ciò che in realtà non è semplice musica, ma un ideale di vita.

I Manowar non sono un gruppo le cui canzoni trattano solamente di violenza, moto, donne, morte, distruzione (o addirittura politica) e null'altro.

I Manowar sono molto più che semplice musica; nelle loro canzoni vivono ideali grandi e profondi che hanno permesso ai cuori d’acciaio di tutti noi di risvegliarsi e rompere le catene che ci tenevano legati alla falsità di questo mondo.

Sono cultori della verità e credono fermamente negli ideali della fratellanza, della sincerità, del valore, del coraggio, della devozione, della lealtà, della volontà e della coerenza! Tutti ideali richiamati al nostro cuore dalle immense canzoni dei Manowar. Fra di Loro sono veramente fratelli e non tollerano chi non sa rispettarli, vivono per i nostri ideali e sono fieri di essere ciò che sono.

Tutti i veri defenders devono unirsi sotto un’unica bandiera per dare la possibilità ad altri true believers di trovare dei veri brothers of steel con cui condividere i propri ideali: chiedono solo correttezza, sincerità e coerenza, ed in cambio offrono tutta la loro amicizia e lealtà.

Noi crediamo fermamente nella nostra fede, nel nostro ideale di vita; e se non saprete rispettarci... whimps and posers... LEAVE THE HALL!!!

01   Manowar (05:29)

We met on English ground
In a backstage room
We heard the sound
And we all knew
What we had to do
We called the high command
Questedly to make a stand
And in the field we grew
And we all knew
Soon the time would come
For us to fight,
Destination
Now in sight
Aaah, Manowar
Born to live forever more
The right to conquer every shore
Hold your ground and give no more
Our fight will never end
So we called your party sense
To raise your hands
And take our stand
Look sharp
When duty calls
Where we march
Cities fall
And the strong survive
And take our side
Now the time has come
For us to fight
Target waiting
In our sight
Aaah, Manowar
Born to live forever more
The right to conquer every shore
Hold your ground and give no more
Manowar
Born to live forever more
The right to conquer every shore
Manowar
Born to live forever more
Manowar
Born to live forever more
The right to conquer every shore
Hold your ground and give no more
Born to live forever more
The right to conquer every shore
Manowar

03   Gloves of Metal (05:31)

04   Each Dawn I Die (04:13)

Passing through the storm-
Led by Demons-walk between the
World of men and gods-
Cast no shadows-draw no light.
I rape the priestess on pagans night.

I taste the serpents poison
On the lips of the one I love.
She brings this gift of witchcraft.
I wear the cat-skin-gloves.

Apples of youth when I wrought
Mischief,hung in a tree to rot
In the sun.-
Reborn in the middle of the
Final orgy the gift of slavery
To the chosen one.

Suicide Suicide don't you know
Me-call to the Master-he will
Come.-He will bring out
Ressurection-cloaked in darkness-
He has won.

Smoke of my sacrifice.-
Journey to the Isle of the
Blessed.-
Grant my soul your glory.
At night time-I'm your guest.
Only I know why-

Each dawn I die.

Smoke of my sacrifice.-
Journey to the Isle of the
Blessed.-
Grant my soul your glory.
At night time-I'm your guest.
Only I know why-

05   Holy War (05:08)

06   Mountains (08:04)

So Tall, Silent Against The Sky
Up Through The Clouds Where Eagles Fly
Wind And Rain Beat Down On One So Strong
They Cut But Never Change, What Stood So Long
Tall As A Mountain, I'm Gonna Tear Through The Sky
Life's For The Takin'
Like A Man Is A Mountainside
Greatness Waits For Those Who Try
None Can Teach You, It's All Inside
Just Climb

I Am In The Ground, I Am In The Air, I Am All
I Live In The Hearts Of All Men
I Am The Call To Greatness
Not All Can Hear
I Awaken The Creator, In Those Who Dare
And The Day Will Come, When We All Must Die
And Enter The Mountainside
Tall As A Mountain, I'm Gonna Tear Through The Sky
Life's For The Takin'
Like A Man Is A Mountainside
Greatness Waits For Those Who Try
None Can Teach You, It's All Inside
Just Climb

I Have No Fear
Death And Glory
Both Draw Near
Like A Man Is A Mountainside
Greatness Waits For Those Who Try
None Can Teach You, It's All Inside
Just Climb

07   The Oath (04:16)

Burning Embers Of The Second Death Will Come In The Night
Priests And Kings, The Alpha And Omega, Poison Bites
False Prophets And Deceivers, Swing From The Trees
Now. Dawn The Age Of Birds
Drunk With Blood, Like Lepers With Disease
Lord Of The Sky, Mercury The Guide
Lord Of The Underworld, I Swear The Sacred Rite
I Will Crucify, Slay Them With Their Tribe
Hear My War Cry
They'll Find No Sanctuary Hidden In Their Ancestral Halls
Let Loose The Knot That Binds
The Spirit And Flesh, Let It Fall
For Only Courage And Heroism Linger After Death
So, Hold Fast Thy Sword, Rejecting Pain, Feel The Dragons
Breath
Lord Of The Sky, Mercury The Guide
Lord Of The Underworld, I Swear The Sacred Rite
I Will Crucify, Slay Them With Their Tribe

14   Black Wind, Fire and Steel (07:50)

Full moon light is calling me
My kigndom lies within
The mystic soul and lions heart
Brought by the talisman
The ecstasy of battle takes me
Where the falcons fly
Immortal youth was granted me
I will never die

Born of Black wind fire and steel
Born of Black wind fire and steel
Born to teach them all to heel
Born of Black wind fire and steel

Pounded by the hammers
Of the giants of the world
I can see in darkness
I'm the overlord
Single combat I await
My shadow brings them fear
The spikes upon my chariot
Will grind them when they're near

Born of Black wind fire and steel
Born of Black wind fire and steel
Born to teach them all to heel
Born of Black wind fire and steel

I am an outcast on the path of no return
Punisher and swordsman
I was born to burn
Black Wind always follows
Where my black horse rides
Fire's in my soul
Steel is on my side

Born of Black wind fire and steel
Born of Black wind fire and steel
Born to teach them all to heel
Born of Black wind fire and steel
