Para comemorar o Dia do Rock fiz uma seleção descompromissada de canções do Saxon.














Hungry
Years&nbsp;- The strong arm of law, 1980





They
came down from the northTo
the plough they were forgedOn
the traces of a man who'd been beforeRight
up from the streetCame
the ranks of unemployedThen
everything became the hungry yearsThey
searched the hungry years (*)For
the triumphs by the fearsThere's
a chance they had to takeThey
were waiting for a breakThey
searched the hungry yearsFor
the triumphs by the fearsSome
make it to the starsPlaying
rock and roll guitarsPlaying
rock and roll guitarsThey
read under the lights (**)To
the jews and to the whitesThe
systems gonna change and understand themThe
business world is deepFor
a percentage of the heatThere
was magic in the eyesThey
couldn't see the liesThey
watched it slowly die(Repeat
*)Some
take the fameAnd
some take the blameMaybe
they will and maybe they won'tTonight...(Repeat
**)


















"And
The Bands Played On" - Denin and Leather, 1981







Just
before dawn in the cold lightWe came out of the nightA great
expectation from the man who ran the showWill it rain, will it
snow, will it shine, we don't knowAre there clouds up in the
skyWe sat in the sun, woah-oh-ohAnd the bands played
onAnd the bands played onAnd the bands played onSee
the people, feel the powerThere was sixty thousand thereJust
like thunder the crowds began to roarWhere you there, did ya
know, did ya see all the showThere was magic in the airWe
sat in the sun woah-oh-ohAnd the bands played onAnd the bands
played onAnd the bands played onSee the rainbow shining
brightlyShooting rockets to the skyMaking music and it rolled
on through the nightYou could hear on the air rock n' roll
everywhereWe were strangers in the nightWe sat in the sun
woah-oh-ohAnd the bands played onAnd the bands played onAnd
the bands played onAnd the bands played onAnd the bands
played on
















Bad
Boys (Like To Rock 'N' Roll) 
Crusader, 1984



Step
right up and ring the bellThis carousel's going straight to
hell (straight to hell)When the metal's hot and the music's
loudAnd your head is spinning round and round (round and
round)

Bad
boys like to rock 'n' rollI said Bad boys like to rock 'n'
roll(they like to rock 'n' roll)

Hold
on tight, don't let goIf you want to rock, just let me know
(just let me know)Tonight's the night, we're back in
townWe're all cranked up and ready to go (ready to go)

Bad
boys like to rock 'n' rollI said Bad boys like to rock 'n'
roll

We'll
suck you in and spin you roundWe can turn your power on
(power on)Can't stop now, just feel the rushJust
give me more, can't get enough (can't get enough)

Bad
boys like to rock 'n' rollI said Bad boys like to rock 'n'
roll, don't you know

Bad
boys like to rock 'n' rollI said Bad boys like to rockBad
boys like to rollBad boys like to rock 'n' roll























Rock
Is Our Life - Killing Ground, 2001



We
stand here togetherFearless and proudRaise up your voicesLet
the music be loudThere's nothing between usWe stand here as
oneThe waiting is over, your time has come

Raise
up your hands into the lightWe stand together 'cause rock is our
lifeLift up your voices into the nightWe stand together
'cause rock is our life

Rocking
togetherInto the nightDenim and leatherThe feeling is
rightWill you be standingWhen the music is doneThe
waiting is over, you time has come

Raise
up your hands into the lightWe stand together 'cause rock is our
lifeLift up your voices into the nightWe stand together
'cause rock is our life

Voices
togetherThis is your songHere is the spiritWhere we all
belongWhen we stand togetherThe bands will play on

I've

downsI'll never stop it's in my bloodIv'e got to rock it
feels so goodCan't stop me now it's in my soulI've got to
play more rock and roll

I

hear the power and feel the beatShout out loud and stamp your
feetCut me loose but don't let goI got to have more rock and
roll

Stand
Up And Fight
–
Sacrifice, 2013




If
you wanna make a life playing in a rock and roll bandYou've got
to take a chance and don't look backThere ain't no easy way, you
can't fake itYou've got to be yourself, don't follow the
packWhen it seems you'll never get a breakYou've got to make
a vow to keep the faith

You
got to fightFor all that you believe inYou've got to
fightIt's you against the worldStand up and fightStand up
and fight

If
you're looking for the light of inspirationWaiting for your story
to be toldWhen music is your life and your vocationYou've got
to give your soul to rock and rollWhen things around you start to
fall apartDon't forget what drove you from the start

You
got to fightFor all that you believe inYou've got to
fightIt's you against the worldStand up and fightStand up
and fight

It's
never easy living on the breadlineWhen every day you're following
your dreamIf you catch the rising star, you might make itBut
nothing's ever as easy as it seemsWhen it seems you'll never get
a breakYou've got to make a vow to keep the faith

You
got to fightFor all that you believe inYou've got to
fightIt's you against the worldStand up and fightStand up
and fight
